In September 2013, a 50-year-old woman presented to our hospital with right abdominal pain as the main complaint. Careful examinations led to the diagnosis of ascending colon cancer. In October 2013, resection of the right half colon and removal of the D3 lymph nodes were performed. As postoperative adjunctive chemotherapy, 6 courses of CAPOX therapy were initiated. PET-CT conducted 17 months after the surgery revealed an enlarged right para-aoric lymph nodes and abnormal FDG accumulation. Lymph node recurrence was diagnosed. In April 2015, 10 courses of CAPOX plus BEV therapy, followed by 12courses of capecitabine single agent, were initiated. PET-CT revealed complete remission of the right para-aoric lymph nodes. However, abnormal FDG accumulation was detected in the right ovary and uterine corpus. After careful examinations in March 2017, we performed expanded total hysterectomy, bilateral resection of the appendicular organs, resection of body reticular region, and removal of the lymph nodes and those at the right side of the aorta for the ovarian and uterine cancer. Pathologically, intimal cancer in the right ovary and uterine corpus was diagnosed.  https://www.selleckchem.com/products/arry-382.html  Examination of the right para-aoric lymph nodes resected at the same time showed complete remission on images, although histological complete remission was found with scarring. Currently, 63 months after the initial surgery, the patient is alive without recurrence.We report 18 cases of colorectalcancer in patients aged over 90 years who received surgicaltreatment . Except for 2 patients who had StageⅣ colorectal cancer, all patients underwent R0 colorectal resection. The mean operation time, blood loss, and length of hospitalization were 167 min, 115 mL, and 23.5 days, respectively. Postoperative complications occurred in 15 patients(83%), of which the most common was delirium. All the patients were discharged safely. We treated them successfully with a collaborative medical team that included experienced staffs for rehabilitation, oral care, skin care, and mentalcare; socialworkers; and others. Regarding the surgicaltreatment for elderly patients with colorectalcancer who are over 90 years of age, not only perioperative treatment but also post-discharge comprehensive and palliative care must be considered.The efficacy of laparoscopic surgery for elderly patients aged over 80 years who have colorectal cancer was investigated concerning complications. Sixty-five patients over 80 years old who underwent colorectal cancer resection until January 2018 were enrolled. Factors that led to complication were analyzed retrospectively. Thirty-three men and 32 women were included, with a median age of 83 years. Forty-eight cases were located at the colon; and 17, at the rectum. The median operating time was 164 minutes, including 39 cases treated with the laparoscopic approach. Postoperative complications were observed in 28 cases(43.1%), of which 15(23.1%)had a Clavien-Dindo(CD)classification of Grade BⅡ. These cases had significantly prolonged postoperative hospital stay. Complications included 10 cases of incisional surgical site infection(SSI), 9 cases of ileus, 6 cases of melena, 2 cases of urinary infection, 2 cases of urinary disorder, and 1 case of postoperative death. Open surgery was the only significant factor associated with the incidence of CD classification of BⅡ(p=0.0330). Among the complications, the incisional SSI was reduced by laparoscopic surgery(p=0.0050). The number of laparoscopic surgeries reduced the incidence of CD classification BⅡ of complications in elderly patients aged over 80 years who had with colorectal cancer resection. The use of incisional SSI also decreased with the use of laparoscopic surgery. Laparoscopic surgery for colorectal cancer in elderly patients may lead to reduced complication rates.Laparoscopic-assisted total gastrectomy(LATG)has several complications early during the introduction of the procedure, so a careful approach is necessary. In this study, we evaluated short-term outcomes after LATG at our hospital. From 2014 to 2017, 21 patients underwent LATG using ENDO-PSI. A 6-cm midline incision was made at the epigastrium, and the abdominal esophagus was transected using ENDO-PSI. The anvil head was fixed with extracorporeal ligation, and an end loop was added to the proximal side of the first suture. Reconstruction was performed with the Roux-en-Y method. The jejunojejunal anastomosis was performed extracorporeally, and esophagojejunostomy was performed using a circular stapler through the small incision. There were 15 men and 6 women, with a mean age of 74 years. The mean operation time was 296 min, and volume of blood loss was 75 mL. The median fasting period was 3(3-10)days, and the postoperative hospitalization period was 12(8-28)days. The postoperative complications were Grade Ⅱ in 4 patients and Grade Ⅲ in 1 patient. The complication due to esophagojejunostomy was anastomotic leakage in 1 patient, while no anastomotic stenosis was found. LATG using ENDO-PSI can be safely performed.Only a few studies have been conducted regarding the palliative radiation therapy(RT)for gastric cancer(GC)bleeding. Data of 9 patients with gastric cancer requiring blood transfusions due to gastric bleeding who were treated with RT were reviewed. All patients were men with a median age of 83(range, 70-91)years. The clinical stage was ⅡB in 2 patients, Ⅲin 1, ⅣA in 1, and ⅣB in 5. Performing gastrectomy was difficult in 4 patients with distant metastasis or tumor invasion to adjacent organ, 3 with poor performance status, and 2 with advanced age. The median hemoglobin levels before RT was 6.0 (range, 3.3-7.7)g/dL, and all patients received blood transfusions before RT. Seven patients received 30 Gy RT and 2 patients received 50 Gy. Two patients received concurrent chemotherapy. A total of 2 hematological and 4 non-hematological treatment-related adverse events occurred. All patients improved conservatively. Hemorrhage occurred in 8 patients, except for 1. Of the 8 patients who responded to RT, 1 had rebleeding on day 81. The median rebleeding-free survival time from the beginning of RT was 125(range, 21-421)days. Palliative radiation therapy was useful for bleeding control in nonresectable gastric cancer.
