The portal vein is occasionally invaded by advanced malignant tumors in the pancreatic head region. However, pancreatic cancer rarely has portal vein tumor thrombi. We report a case of pancreatic cancer with a massive portal vein tumor thrombus undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy with combined resection of the portal vein. A 71-year-old man visited a clinic with complaints of abdominal discomfort and vomiting. Gastroscopy showed a massive tumor in the duodenum. He was referred to our hospital for further examinations and treatment. The CT showed a low-density tumor with a maximum diameter of 10cm located on the pancreas head. A tumor widely invaded the duodenum and had a 6-cm portal vein tumor thrombus. MRCP did not show obvious stenosis of the pancreatic duct due to tumor invasion. There were no findings suggesting distant metastases. Biopsy of the duodenum revealed adenocarcinoma. He was diagnosed with primary pancreatic cancer or duodenal cancer with portal vein tumor thrombus and underwent pancreatoduodectomy with resection and reconstruction of the portal vein. He suffered no postoperative complications and was discharged 2months after surgery. The final histopathological diagnosis was pancreatic colloid carcinoma. He received adjuvant chemotherapy, but died 16months after surgery. Colloid carcinoma of the pancreas is rare, and pancreatic carcinoma seldom forms a portal vein tumor thrombus. We experienced a very rare case of pancreatic colloid carcinoma with portal vein tumor thrombus and performed radical resection of the pancreas and portal vein.

To assess the efficacy of surgical management of chronic mesh infection (CMI) after abdominal wall hernia repair (AWHR) in single-stage approach (complete removal of infected prosthesis and simultaneous replacement with poly-4-hydroxybutyrate mesh or BAM group), comparing results with two-stage treatment (complete mesh excision and abdominal wall repair with synthetic mesh after several months or SPM group). Retrospective comparative study of all patients who underwent surgery for CMI between January 2006 and January 2019 at a tertiary center. We compared results in terms of epidemiological data, hernia and prosthesis characteristics, surgical and postoperative variables of both two groups. Over the 13-year study period, 2791 AWHR was performed at our hospital; the overall CMI rate was 2.5%. Of 71 patients, 30 (42.2%) were in BAM group and 41 (57.8%) in SPM group. The median cumulative operative time (252min versus 132min) and length of stay (16.6days versus 6.2days) were significatively longer in SPM group compared with BAM group, due to the need of two surgical procedures. There were a higher number of postoperative complications in SPM group (p = 0.002), some of them grade III. With mean follow-up of 36.5months (range 21-59), there were no significant differences in terms of overall hernia recurrence and mesh reinfection in both groups. The use of a poly-4-hydroxybutyrate resorbable mesh in single-stage management of CMI may be a safe and better option than two-stage approach, although more studies are needed to confirm our results.

To evaluate pre-operative qualitative and quantitative parameters of external limiting membranes (ELM) and other associated full thickness macular holes (FTMH) features and their predictive values for post-operative anatomical and functional outcomes. This was a retrospective study of 48 eyes that underwent vitrectomy with internal limiting membrane (ILM) peeling for FTMH and had type 1 closure. All subjects underwent optical coherence tomography (SDOCT, Heidelberg, Spectralis), and the eyes were divided into complete ELM closure (CEC) and incomplete ELM closure (IEC) groups based on the post-operative OCTs within 2months, and ROC curves were used to estimate which of the pre-operative parameters could best predict eyes falling in the CEC group. The mean pre-op ELM defect was smaller in CEC group (594μm vs 1126μm, p< 0.001) and so was the pre-op EZ defect (770μm vs 1186μm, p= 0.001). The mean ELM angle also was smaller in the CEC group (51.6° vs 102.5°, p< 0.001) and so was the mean hole inlet distance (353μm vs 596μm, p< 0.001). The post-operative ELM defect showed a significant negative correlation with visual acuity (r= - 0.319; p= 0.027). The ELM angle was most predictive with an AUROC of 0.958, and a cut-off of 68.3° had a sensitivity of 90% and a specificity of 89%. Our study introduces a novel parameter called the ELM angle and proves that it has a high sensitivity and specificity in predicting complete ELM reformation post-surgery in the short term as well as the long term.

Objective The aim of this study is to evaluate PIMs involved in potentially clinically significant DDIs in prescribed pharmacotherapy of elderly patients at hospital discharge. Setting Internal Medicine Clinic of University Hospital Dubrava, Zagreb, Croatia. Method During a 16-month period, the pharmacotherapy data were assessed using Lexicomp Online screening software to identify category C (monitor drug therapy), D (consider therapy modification) and X (avoid combination) DDIs. The European Union (EU)(7)-PIM criteria were applied to detect inappropriately prescribed medications involved in DDIs. Clinical pharmacists obtained data from patients' medical records and patient/caregiver interviews. Main outcome measure The incidence of PIMs involved in potentially clinically significant DDIs. Results A total of 364 consecutive elderly patients were enrolled in the study.
