RESUMEN
A 78-year-old man was diagnosed with sigmoid colon cancer, and laparoscopic sigmoidectomy was performed. On pathological examination, he was diagnosed with RAS-wild type sigmoid colon cancer with regional lymph node metastasis (T3, N1, M0, Stage â ¢B[Union for International Cancer Control 8th edition]). Computed tomography revealed S8 and S7 liver metastasis, 3 months after the initial surgery. The location of the S8 tumor was close to the inferior vena cava(IVC), right hepatic vein(RHV)and segment â § hepatic vein(V8). He was administered cetuximab plus modified FOLFOX6. After 6 courses of chemotherapy, the S8 and S7 liver tumor shrank. S8 plus 4 plus 1 and S7 partial hepatectomy was performed and R0 resection was achieved. The RHV and V8 were resected, while right superficial and middle hepatic veins were preserved. An IVC invasion was not observed. He was administered 12 courses of adjuvant modified FOLFOX6. After the partial hepatectomy, he has been followed up for 1.5 years with no recurrence.

STUDY OBJECTIVE: To evaluate hysteroscopic transcervical resection (TCR) for atypical polypoid adenomyoma of the uterus (APA). DESIGN: Retrospective study (Canadian Task Force classification II-2). SETTING: Single tertiary hospital. PATIENTS: Women who underwent TCR for APA at Kawasaki Municipal Hospital between 2003 and 2015. INTERVENTIONS: Clinical records were obtained. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Thirty-five patients with APA were evaluated. The median patient age was 35 years (range, 23-43 years), and the median tumor diameter was 22 mm (range, 9-51 mm). The median duration of observation after the first TCR was 34.0 months (range, 4.2-133.7 months). In 19 patients, the tumor recurred after the first TCR. A second TCR was performed in 13 patients, 11 of whom experienced recurrence. A third TCR was performed in 7 patients, all 7 of whom experienced recurrence. A fourth TCR was performed in 4 patients, 3 of whom experienced recurrence. The recurrence rate after the second TCR was higher than that after the first TCR (71.4%-84.6% vs 54.3%; p < .01, t test). The median disease-free interval was 12.4 months after the first TCR, 15.3 months after the second TCR, 10.5 months after the third TCR, and 10.9 months after the fourth TCR. Seven patients progressed to endometrial cancer; however, there was no mortality. Six of the 35 patients conceived, and 4 had a normal spontaneous delivery. CONCLUSION: Owing to disease-free intervals that follow treatment, TCR is a promising treatment modality as a fertility-preserving option for patients with APA under careful observation. Twenty percent of patients with APA develop cancer; however, the present study showed no mortality.

Cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP) is a rare type of ectopic pregnancy. It is becoming more common, but it can lead to uterine rupture and severe hemorrhage. Here, we report a case of a 37-year-old woman with CSP complicated with pseudoaneurysm. The pseudoaneurysm emerged following focal injection of methotrexate (MTX) and potassium chloride with systemic MTX treatment. Due to a risk of sudden bleeding, uterine artery embolization (UAE) was recommended, but the patient hoped to avoid this if possible. Because the serum human chorionic gonadotropin level and the gestational sac were still persistent, dilation and curettage were performed with interventional radiologists on standby. Severe hemorrhage occurred and continued during the procedure, which necessitated emergent UAE. We reviewed six CSP case reports with vascular abnormalities, and all of them necessitated UAE, surgical excision, or hysterectomy. In the case of CSP combined with pseudoaneurysm, treatment should be planned carefully considering the risk of massive hemorrhage.
