Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas (ICC) arise above the second order bile ducts, has a unique biological characteristics. Liver resection is the most effective treatment. Minimally invasive surgery, associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy, regional lymphadenectomy and liver transplantation are the main advancement of surgical treatment in ICC. Traditional CT and laboratory markers are incorporated to predict long-term outcomes after resection for ICC. Adjuvant chemotherapy and neoadjuvant therapies are proved to be the optimal treatment in selected patients. A lot of targetable mutations have been comprehensively characterised and clinical data is emerging on targeting these oncogenic drivers. Also, the role of immunotherapy has been examined and is an area of intense investigation. Herein, a deeper understanding of the molecular and genomic pathogenesis of this entity has led to several advances in the individualized treatment of ICC.

Objective@#To explore the feasibility of laparoscopic treatment for incidental gallbladder cancer(IGBCA) and analyze the factors influencing prognosis.@*Methods@#A retrospective study of 71 patients with IGBCA received laparoscopic treatment at Department of General Surgery, Peking University Third Hospital from January 2007 to December 2016 was conducted,the clinicopathological data and prognosis were analyzed. There were 18 males and 53 females,aged 23 to 81 years. They were divided into two groups based on the presence of intraluminal mass in the gallbladder. Sixty-five of the 71 patients received laparoscopic radical resection, the prognosis of them were compared with 14 patients with open radical resection.@*Results@#Among the 71 patients,65 patients received radical resection,3 patients simple gallbaldder resection and 3 patients palliative resection. Postoperative complications occurred in 6 patients. IGBCA were detected by frozen section in 57 patients,with the accuracy of 96.5%,while the accuracy of T stage is 43.8% in the 48 patients received T stage evaluation during frozen section examination. The T stages based on final pathology were Tis(n=6),T1a(n=5),T1b(n=10),T2(n=46),and T3(n=4).The number of harvested lymph node was 4.7±2.9(range:2-12).There are 14 patients with lymph node metastasis. The 50 patients with intraluminal gallbladder mass include 21 patients with ≤T1b stage and 29 patients with ≥T2 stage, while the 21 patients without intraluminal gallbladder mass are all with ≥T2 stage. The median survival time of the 71 patients was 33 months, with the 5-year cumulative survival rate 67.3%. The 5-year cumulative survival rate is 78.5% for the 65 patients who received radical resection,comparable with those who received open radical resection(P=0.485).Univariate analysis demonstrated that T stage, lymph node metastasis, G grade, lymphovascular invasion, neural invasion, acute cholecystectomy, bile spillage, gallbladder mass and preoperative CA19-9/CEA were the most important prognostic factors(P<0.05).@*Conclusions@#Laparoscopic treatment for IGBCA is feasible, especially for those with intraluminal gallbladder mass. The accuracy of frozen section examination in evaluating T stage is low.

Objective To examine whether the boundary patterns of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) in the preoperative contrasted enhanced computer tomography (CE-CT) could predict poor postoperative prognosis.Methods From January 2010 to December 2015,104 patients of pancreatic head ductal adenocarcinoma received radical pancreaticoduodenectomy by a single group of surgeons.All patients underwent CE-CT before operation.The clinicopathological characteristics and the prognosis were comparatively analyzed among the patients with different SMA boundary patterns.Results The patients with obscure SMA boundary in CE-CT had a lower overall survival rate (P =0.012) and a higher liver metastasis rate (P < 0.01) compared to the patients with clear SMA boundary.38.2% of patients with obscure SMA boundary died within 6 months,69.1% of them died within 12 months while the mortality rate was 6% within 6 months and 29.2% within 12 months in patients with clear SMA boundary.Only 2.2% of patients with clear SMA boundary presented liver metastasis within 6 months,but that was 53% in patients with obscure SMA boundary.18.4% of patients developed liver metastasis within 12 months in patients with clear SMA boundary,whereas the rate was 82% in patients with obscure SMA boundary.Furthermore,the tissues around the SMA presented a higher CT value in any phase in patients with obscure SMA boundary than in patients with clear SMA boundary (P < 0.01).Conclusions The patterns of the SMA boundary in CE-CT is a potential prognostic factor in pancreatic head ductal adenocarcinoma after radical operation,and the obscure SMA boundary may be associated with early liver metastasis and high mortality.

<p><b>BACKGROUND</b>Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNETs) are a type of tumors with the characteristics of easy metastasis and recurrence. Till date, the risk factors affecting the prognosis are still in the debate. In this study, several risk factors will be discussed combined with our cases and experience.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Thirty-three patients diagnosed as pNETs were enrolled and the clinical features, blood tests, pathological features, surgical treatment, and follow-up data of these patients were collected and analyzed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>In this study, operation time of G3 cases was longer than G1/G2 cases (P = 0.017). The elevated level of tumor markers such as AFP, CEA, Ca125, and Ca19-9 may predict easier metastasis, earlier recurrence, and poor prognosis (P = 0.007). The presence of cancer embolus and nerve invasion increases along with the TNM stage (P = 0.037 and P = 0.040), and the incidence of positive surgical margin increased (P = 0.007). When the presence of nerve invasion occurs, the chance of cancer embolus and lymph node metastasis also increases (P = 0.016 and P = 0.026).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>pNETs were tumors with the features of easy recurrence and metastasis and many risk factors could affect its prognosis such as the elevated levels of tumor markers and the presence of nerve invasion, except some recognized risk factors. If one or more of these factors existed, postoperative treatments may be needed to improve prognosis.</p>
