Among gastric submucosal tumors, neurogenic tumors are considered to be rare diseases. We experienced a case of laparoscopic local gastrectomy of gastric schwannoma coexisting with extramurally developed gastric GIST found accidentally during surgery. A 61-year-old man was pointed out a gastric submucosal tumor with a diameter of 15 mm in a medical checkup. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration(EUS-FNA)was performed, and immunostaining showed that c-kit(-), CD34(-), S-100(+), SMA(-), MIB-1 less then 2%. Diagnosis was gastric schwannoma. We performed laparoscopic local gastrectomy. During the surgery another extramural nodule was accidentally found with a diameter of 8 mm at the anterior wall of the gastric body near lesser curvature. Immunostaining showed c-kit(+), CD34(+)and was diagnosed GIST. Because a gastric schwannoma coexisting with GIST is a rare case, we decided to report it by adding discussion with some literatures.A 37-year-old woman presented with general malaise, anorexia, and nausea. She was hypercalcemic and had an 8-cm- diameter mass in her left breast. Histopathological diagnosis was invasive breast cancer(T3N0M1). She had multiple lung metastases and pleural dissemination, but she did not have bone metastasis. Serum parathyroid hormone-related protein level was elevated. Therefore, it was thought that hypercalcemia was induced by advanced breast cancer. High-volume fluid therapy and bisphosphonate were administered, and electrolyte correction was performed. Her general condition improved after these measures. Although chemotherapy(epirubicin with 5-fluorouracil and cyclophosphamide)was performed twice, breast cancer progressed; therefore, the chemotherapy regimen was changed to nab-paclitaxel, following which the progression of breast cancer was delayed. Left mastectomy was performed to control local tumor enlargement, following which hypercalcemia did not relapse. Hormone therapy showed long-term effectiveness; however, humoral hypercalcemia induced by the malignancy suggested that it was a poor prognosis factor. Aggressive multimodal treatment was important to control tumor growth.Here we report a case of a 41-year-old male patient who underwent resection of a desmoid tumor originating from the greater omentum with no history of open surgery. An elastic hard mass was palpated in the left upper abdomen, but there were no abnormalities on serum chemical tests, including tumor markers. Computed tomography showed a parenchymal tumor located near the descending colon. Integrated positron-emission tomography and computed tomography revealed moderate accumulation of tracer in the tumor. An intra-abdominal malignant mesenchymoma was suspected and surgery was performed. The tumor was located in the anterior portion of the greater omentum. It partially invaded the diaphragm, and the affected regions were concurrently resected. The resected specimen measured 80 mm at longest diameter. The cut surface was grayish white and parenchymal. The histopathological findings showed the atypical spindle shaped tumor cells grown with collagen fiber progression. Immunohistochemical staining for β-catenin showed strong staining in the nuclei and cytoplasm of tumor cells. The patient was diagnosed with desmoid tumor originating from the greater omentum. The desmoid tumor with no history of open surgery was rare. We report this rare case, along with a discussion of the literature.Duodenal gastrointestinal stromal tumor(GIST)are relatively rare. Here, we report a case of a duodenal GIST located in the third portion that was successfully treated via laparoscopic local resection using the Kocher maneuver. A 49-year-old woman with a high BMI of 43.4 kg/m2 was diagnosed with a 20 mm duodenal submucosal tumor in the third portion that was suspected to be a GIST; subsequently, she underwent laparoscopic local resection. After mobilization from the first to third portion of the duodenum using the Kocher maneuver, local resection using a linear stapler was completed. The surgery time was 152 minutes, and the estimated blood loss was approximately zero. The postoperative course was uneventful, and she was discharged on the 7th postoperative day. The pathological diagnosis was ultra-low-grade GIST. This procedure can be a useful option for obese patients with good operative field of view.Here we report a 48-year-old female with recurrent breast cancer. She had received chest muscle-conserving mastectomy and lymph node dissection at another hospital, diagnosed as pStage ⅡB, T2N1M0 premenopausal left endocrine positive/ HER2 negative breast cancer at the age of 45. Although postoperative adjuvant therapy was started with LH-RH agonist plus tamoxifen, and chest radiation, tamoxifen therapy was intolerantly discontinued due to severe adverse events of hot flash after 1 year later. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/tpx-0005.html Three years later, she presented with back pain and was referred to our hospital. As PET-CT revealed recurrence of multiple bone and lung metastases and solitary liver metastasis which did not seem to be life-threatening, palliative radiation therapy and endocrine therapy with leuprorelin and anastrozole(LA)were started. Eighteen months later, PET-CT showed complete disappearance of liver and lung metastases and remarkable regression of bone metastases except for the right sciatic bone. LA therapy could be maintained for a total of 30 months until metastatic recurrence on liver and bone emerged. LA endocrine therapy may be effective for patients with premenopausal hormone-positive breast cancer even if the difficult situation such as tamoxifen intolerance.A 61-year-old male was referred to our department after decompression of the transanal ileus tube due to a rectal cancer obstruction. Colonoscopy revealed a circumferential type 2 tumor, 4 cm from the anal verge. The tumor was diagnosed as rectal cancer tub1-2, Group 5 on biopsy analysis. Longitudinal ulcers descending to the sigmoid colon were present and obstructive colitis was suspected. Enhanced computed tomography showed wall thickness in the Ra, Rb rectum and swelling of the mesorectum lymph node, but distant metastases were not identified. We diagnosed the patient with Ra, Rb rectal cancer cT4aN1aM0, cStage Ⅲb. Because of the risk of anastomotic leakage with obstructive colitis, we planned neoadjuvant chemotherapy(SOX therapy)after laparoscopic transverse colostomy. After neoadjuvant chemotherapy, colonoscopy revealed improvements in the obstructive colitis. The tumor was reduced in size and the chemotherapy appeared effective. We performed laparoscopic rectal super low anterior resection with resection of the D3 lymph node.
