conclusions non-invasive assessment of hepatic fibrosis could be done using the egy-score. egy-score could differentiate no or early fibrosis (stage f0-f2 metavir) from severe fibrosis or cirrhosis (stage f3 - f4 metavir) with 83.7% accuracy. results combined elevation of ca 19-9 and ca 125 with a summated value > 37 u/ml is predictive of severe hepatic fibrosis or cirrhosis (stage f3-f4 metavi...

ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecological cancer and about 70% of the patients are advanced stagein the time of diagnosis. decision about management (surgical debulking versus neoadjuant chemotherapy) in ovarian cancer patients is dependent on initial staging by abdominopelvic mdct or mri, so, radiologist expertise on ovarian cancer staging is very important. involvement of mesenteric roo...

A 49 year old man with previous history of colectomy for colon cancer was referred to our department for further evaluation of suspicious hepatic lesions noticed during an abdominal CT scan. 99mTc-RBC scan revealed multiple hot spots in the region of the liver, correlating to the CT and liver-spleen scan. Further follow-ups of the patient revealed no remarkable change in the size or numbe...

Parenchyma–preserving hepatic resection in treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer: analysis the literature data and own experience accumulated

a 49 year old man with previous history of colectomy for colon cancer was referred to our department for further evaluation of suspicious hepatic lesions noticed during an abdominal ct scan. 99mtc-rbc scan revealed multiple hot spots in the region of the liver, correlating to the ct and liver-spleen scan. further follow-ups of the patient revealed no remarkable change in the size or number of t...

68Ga Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is an increasingly popular radiopharmaceutical tracer in prostate cancer and is becoming increasingly researched in other cancers such as breast cancer, renal cell carcinoma, glioblastoma multiforme, among others. Cholangiocarcinoma is the second most common primary hepatic malignant tumor; it is an aggressive tumor with a 5-year surviva...

Purpose: Obesity is a well described risk factor for the development of colorectal cancer. Some data suggest that obese patients with advanced cancer may have improved outcomes. Limited evidence exists in case undergoing hepatic resection liver metastases. Sarcopenia has been associated poorer outcomes treated chemotherapy, but there are limited examining these resection.

Background: Breast cancer is a hormone-dependent malignancy that is associated with estrogen and progesterone interactions. The liver is the most important organ to be affected by the metastasis of breast cancer, which causes functional impairment. We compared levels of obesity, 17β-estradiol, and secreted proteins in postmenopausal women with breast cancer but without hepatic symptoms to those...
