Telementoring Experience for Complex Bariatric Operation-Laparoscopic Single-Anastomosis Duodeno-Ileal Bypass with Sleeve Gastrectomy (SADI-S).

In a groundbreaking surgical collaboration, a team of surgeons in Lithuania successfully performed the first single-anastomosis duodeno-ileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S) operation under the remote telemonitoring guidance of a highly experienced surgeon from Spain.The Lithuanian surgical team, comprising skilled bariatric surgeons, meticulously prepared for the SADI-S operation under the remote guidance of their Spanish proctor. Utilizing video conferencing and real-time communication, the mentor provided step-by-step instructions, shared insights, and addressed any concerns during the procedure. The mentor's extensive experience and guidance ensured a safe and successful surgical outcome.This innovative approach not only demonstrates the potential of telemedicine in the field of complex bariatric surgeries but also highlights the power of international cooperation in advancing surgical techniques and patient care by using modern methods of telemedicine and proctorship.

Prostate cancer solitary metastasis to anal canal: case report and review of literature.

BACKGROUND: Here we present the first cases of prostate cancer solitary metastasis to anal canal. CASE PRESENTATION: A 67-year-old male patient underwent radical prostatectomy with ilio-obturator lymphonodectomy in 2016 due to poorly differentiated ductal adenocarcinoma (Gleason 4 + 5(40%) = 9) pT3bN0. Two months later increasing PSA rate was noted and the patient started adjuvant intermittent androgen deprivation therapy combined with radiotherapy. Year after patient was admitted to the hospital complaining of dyschezia, pain in anal canal, and bloody stool. Digital rectal examination revealed an anal fissure with ulceration. A biopsy from ulcerated area showed poorly differentiated ductal adenocarcinoma of the prostate. Because there was no evidence of distant metastases on abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan and pelvic magnetic nuclear resonance imaging (MRI) and the only metastasis was in anal canal patient underwent laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection (APR). Postoperative course was uneventful and patient was discharged at postoperative day 7. CONCLUSIONS: Our presented case is the first to describe prostate cancer solitary metastasis to anal canal and we always have to be aware of possible rare disease while assessing the patient with rectal bleeding. Biopsy most of the time is the only and the most reliable test to differentiate between the diseases.

Lynch syndrome and sextuple primary malignancies.

Lynch syndrome or hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer is the most common of hereditary colorectal cancer and accounts for 1-3%. Lynch and Chapelle estimated that it accounts 5-8% for all colorectal cancers. It is an autosomal dominant syndrome characterized by predisposition of various cancers (colorectal, stomach, endometrial, ovarian, renal, small bowel, and hepatobiliary tract) at earlier age than in general population and occurs as a result of mutation in DNA mismatch repair genes. This article presents a rare clinical of a 61-year-old female diagnosed with extracolonic Lynch syndrome with six metachronous tumours acquiring in digestive tract during the period from 1993 to 2014 (over 21 years). No other cases of six primary malignancies in patient with Lynch syndrome have been reported in literature. Upon diagnosis of Lynch syndrome, it is important to screen patient for malignancies of different localization as this syndrome predisposes appearance of various cancers at earlier age than in general population.
