Recently, high-resolution multislice CT images have been used in the diagnosis of hepatic cancer. In the conventional method of detecting hepatic cancer on the basis of three-dimensional images, it is difficult to detect cancers with a three-dimensional structure. This paper proposes a method of detection of liver cancer on the basis of three-dimensional hepatic blood vessel regions which are e...

Background Raising awareness of possible cancer symptoms is important for timely help-seeking; recent campaigns have focused on symptom groups (such as abdominal symptoms) rather than individual alarm symptoms associated with particular cancer sites. The evidence base supporting such initiatives is still emerging however; understanding the frequency and nature of presenting abdominal symptoms a...

Reconstruction after excision of locoregionally recurrent penile cancer can be a surgical challenge. In this short study, we present two cases perineal reconstruction using bilateral gracilis flaps supplemented by abdominal advancement for salvage cancer, reviewing relevant literature and outlining our local approach to the perineum.
