RESUMO
The increasing popularity of the concept of liquid biopsy, which involves the definition of circulating tumor cells and circulating nucleic acids in the blood can significantly improve long-term results of treatment for gastric cancer due to the high sensitivity of techniques. It needs further study in relation to gastric cancer, the search for universal markers and methods.

The authors developed and described an algorithm and technical aspects of lymphadenectomy performance in radical surgery based on structural variations of visceral vessels in 91 patients with stomach cancer. Preoperative helical computer tomography in regimen of angiography was carried out on 91 patients. Variant anatomy of visceral vessels was detected in 31 patients and that required change of surgical technique in order to minimize intraoperative risks of great vessel damage and allowed perforrming lymphadenectomy successfully.

Standard methods of diagnostics haven't got a proper sensitivity and specificity concerning assessment of regional nodal involvement in case of rectal cancer. Therefore it is necessary to look for new method of diagnostics, detect risk factors and unfavorable prognosis in relation to lateral lymph node metastasis. At the same time, there should be a differentiated approach to the choice of therapeutic management in rectal cancer. Investigation of variability of blood supply of the rectum could be an additional method of diagnostics in rectal cancer.

In order to improve radicalism of emergency surgical interventions an appropriate method of total mesocolonectomy and D3-lymph node dissection in the medial-lateral direction and the principle of "no-touch technique" were used in 14 patients. This technique is safe, effective, does not prolong the duration of operation and postoperative period, is not followed by increased number of complications and lethality.

MicroRNA-21 (miR-21) expression was quantified by real-time qRT-PCR in peripheral blood and saliva samples obtained from patients diagnosed with colorectal cancer (CRC) of varying degrees of malignancy and healthy volunteers. All patients had adenocarcinoma located in the distal colon at different stages. Significant differences were detected between the control group and the total experimental group of CRC patients (plasma, P = 0.0001; saliva, P = 5e-12). MiR-21 expression was also significantly different in certain subgroups of patients with CRC disease stages II-IV as compared to the control group. No correlation of miR-21 expression was found with regard to gender and age of patents. Also, there were no significant individual correlations and linear regression of miR-21 expression in the plasma and saliva. The estimated diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of miR-21 expression were respectively 65 and 85% in the plasma, and 97 and 91% in the saliva. Our data suggest that miR-21 in both the saliva and plasma could be a proper biomarker for CRC screening, although the saliva miR-21 expression test looks preferable due to its higher sensitivity, specificity, and technical simplicity.
