Endogenous Melatonin

     Low back pain (lumbar pain) due to injury of or damage to intervertebral discs is common in all societies.  The loss of work time as a result of this problem is massive.  Recent research suggests that melatonin may prevent or counteract intervertebral disc damage. This may be especially relevant in aging populations given that endogenous melatonin, in most individuals, dwindles with increasing age. The publications related to melatonin and its protection of the intervertebral disc are reviewed herein, including definition of some molecular mechanisms that account for melatonin’s protective actions.

This case report describes the chemoembolization of a small hepatocellular carcinoma employing a lipiodol drug delivery system utilizing a novel arterial pathway. Because the target lesion was precariously located adjacent to the inferior heart border and the diaphragm, it was unsuitable for imaging-guided microwave ablation. To achieve chemoembolization, several intraprocedural adaptations were necessary, given the variant anatomy encountered and difficulty accessing the left gastric artery through a celiac artery approach. The left gastric artery was selected from a superior mesenteric artery approach through the pancreaticoduodenal arcade (Rio Branco’s arcade). This case illustrates the importance of a mastery of the vascular anatomy and variants of hepatic arterial flow.
