RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Localized colorectal amyloidosis has a good prognosis, but cases involving bleeding or perforation may require surgery. However, there are few case reports discussing the differences in the surgical strategy between the segmental and pan-colon types. CASE PRESENTATION: A 69-year-old woman with a history of abdominal pain and melena was diagnosed with amyloidosis localized in the sigmoid colon by colonoscopy. Since preoperative imaging and intraoperative findings could not rule out malignancy, we performed laparoscopic sigmoid colectomy with lymph-node dissection. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining revealed a diagnosis of AL amyloidosis (λ type). We diagnosed localized segmental gastrointestinal amyloidosis, because there was no amyloid protein in the margins, and the tumor was localized. There were no malignant findings. CONCLUSIONS: Unlike systemic amyloidosis, localized amyloidosis has a favorable prognosis. Localized colorectal amyloidosis can be classified into the segmental type, in which amyloid protein is deposited locally, and the pan-colon type, in which amyloid protein is deposited extensively in the colon. Amyloid protein causes ischemia due to vascular deposition, weakening of the intestinal wall due to muscle layer deposition, and decreased peristalsis due to nerve plexus deposition. No amyloid protein should remain outside the resection area. The pan-colon type is often reported to cause complications such as anastomotic leakage, and primary anastomosis should be avoided. On the other hand, if there is no contamination or tumor remnants in the margin, the segmental type may be considered for primary anastomosis.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Bacteremia due to the Streptococcus bovis/Streptococcus equinus complex (SBSEC) is associated with specific diseases, such as colorectal cancer and infective endocarditis. This study aimed to evaluate the clinical characteristics of SBSEC bacteremia and the accuracy of identification of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) and phenotypic identification systems for SBSEC isolates. METHODS: We analyzed patients with SBSEC bacteremia retrospectively between 2012 and 2019 at three hospitals in Japan. We re-identified each SBSEC isolate using sequencing superoxide dismutase (sodA) analysis, MALDI-TOF MS using the MALDI Biotyper, and phenotypic identification using the VITEK2. RESULTS: During the study period, 39 patients with SBSEC bacteremia were identified. S. gallolyticus subsp. pasteurianus (SGSP, n = 29), S. gallolyticus subsp. gallolyticus (SGSG, n = 5), S. lutetiensis (SL, n = 4), and S. infantarius subsp. infantarius (n = 1) were identified using sodA sequencing analysis. Primary bacteremia (36%) was the most common cause of bacteremia, followed by infective endocarditis (26%) and biliary tract infections (23%). Colorectal cancer was associated significantly with SGSG bacteremia, while the sources of bacteremia were similar in each SBSEC subspecies. The MALDI Biotyper was significantly more accurate in identifying the SBSEC isolates at the subspecies level compared to the VITEK2 (92% vs. 67%, P = 0.010). In contrast, there were no significant differences in the rates of correct identification of the SBSEC isolates at the species level between the MALDI Biotyper and the VITEK2 (100% vs. 87%, P = 0.055). CONCLUSIONS: Bacteremia with SGSG was associated with colorectal cancer, and the sources of bacteremia were similar in each SBSEC subspecies. The MALDI-TOF MS was significantly more accurate in identifying SBSEC isolates at the subspecies level than the phenotypic identification systems. The accurate identification of SBSEC isolates using the MALDI-TOF MS and phenotypic identification systems was sufficient at the species level, but it was insufficient at the subspecies level. Therefore, it may be reasonable for clinicians to perform echocardiographies and colonoscopies in all patients with SBSEC bacteremia.

RESUMO

AIM: To study the characteristics and surgical treatment of inguinal endometriosis (IEM), which can occur in women of reproductive age. METHODS: Patients who underwent groin surgery at the Hiroshima City Funairi Citizens Hospital between 2004 and 2017 were retrospectively examined. Patients with IEM were divided into 3 groups based on the site of occurrence as follows: at a hernia sac or hydrocele of Nuck's canal (type I), round ligament (type II), or subcutaneous area (type III). Clinical characteristics were compared among groups. RESULTS: Of 2,798 patients investigated, 28 were pathologically diagnosed as having IEM with 15, 10, and 3 classified as type I, II, and III respectively. All patients presented with a mass (median 20 mm) and/or bulge that mainly occurred at the right inguinal region. Sixteen patients presented with inguinal pain associated with menstruation. While the groups did not differ in terms of most clinical characteristics, the lack of a preoperative diagnosis of IEM occurred more frequently for type I than for types II and III. CONCLUSIONS: Because IEM-type I might be underdiagnosed preoperatively, complete resection of a hernia sac or hydrocele of Nuck's canal with subsequent pathological examination is required for women of reproductive age with an inguinal disease.

RESUMO

A 5 3-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital because of vomiting. CT scan and gastroduodenoscopy showed severe stenosis of the duodenal 3rd portion. There was no evidence of malignancy. We diagnosed a stricture due to a duodenal ulcer and laparotomy was performed. By means of biopsy of No.14d lymph node in the operation, adenocarcinoma of the duodenum was pointed out and we performed a pancreatoduodenectomy. Although adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1/paclitaxel (S-1 80 mg/body, po, day 1-14 and paclitaxel 120 mg/body iv day 1, 8)was administered after operation, the patient's serum CEA was elevated and metastic lymph nodes around the supra mesenteric artery were pointed out. The patient was started on combined chemotherapy with S-1/CPT-11(S-1 80 mg/body, po, day 1-14 and CPT-11 120 mg/body iv day 1), serum CEA levels returned to normal range, and marked reduction of lymph node size was observed on CT. The patient is still alive and free of disease three years after the operation. S-1/CPT-11 could therefore be a treatment option for patients with duodenal carcinoma.

RESUMO

A 73-year-old man was referred to our hospital with sigmoid colon cancer in July 2009. CT and MRI showed synchronous multiple liver metastasis. After a sigmoid colon resection in August, he received convergent chemotherapy in combination with 5-fluorouracil(5-FU)/Leucovorin(LV)(RPMI regimen)and bevacizumab for liver metastasis. After two courses without any major adverse effects, liver metastasis remarkably reduced on CT and MRI examination. We thus performed a liver resection, and pathological examination revealed a complete response in liver. Combination chemotherapy of 5-FU/LV and bevacizumab can be expected to provide safe and effective treatment for liver metastasis of colon cancer.

RESUMO

A 62-year-old man had undergone anterior resection of rectum for rectosigmoid colon cancer with liver metastases. Postoperatively, the FOLOFOX6 regimen was performed in three courses. Metastatic liver tumors showed progressive disease(PD) on CT scan. The treatment was then changed to the FOLFIRI regimen for three courses. Metastatic liver tumors showed a partial response(PR)on CT scan. After six courses of the FOLFIRI regimen, the patient was given seven courses of the FOLFIRI +BV regimen. Hepatic resection of S2, S3, S4 and S6 segment was performed. The histological effect of chemotherapy was complete response(CR).
