Adenocarcinoma Of The Colon

Objective: The objective of this work is to report a hernia derived from the access portal used in robotic surgery. Details of the case: A 72-year-old woman, diagnosed with splenic angle adenocarcinoma of the colon, underwent robotic left colectomy and lymphadenectomy. On the 12th postoperative day, she developed vomiting and interrupted the elimination of feces and flatus. Computed tomography revealed hernia on the left flank with an 8 mm orifice with intestinal contents. Incisional herniorrhaphy was performed to correct the defect. PSH are associated with patient risk factors. They are also related to the diameter of the trocar and its place of passage. For its prevention, it is important to assess the need to close the aponeurosis according to each case. Final considerations: The disturbances created by the passage of 12 mm and 10 mm trocars must be closed. Those created by 5 mm trocars do not need to be closed, and those of 8 mm may or may not be closed, depending on the risk factors involved.

Transmission Computed Tomography

This case report describes a 38-year-old male who was hospitalized for further clarification of clinically mild hyperthyroidism. His increased total hormone levels, the elevated free thyroid hormones and the elevated basal TSH with blunted response to TRH strongly suggested a pituitary adenoma with inappropriate TSH incretion. Transmission computed tomography showed an intrasellar expansion, 16 mm in diameter. The neoplastic TSH production was confirmed by an elevated alpha-subunit and a raised molar alpha-sub/ATSH ratio. However, T4 distribution on prealbumin (PA, TTR), albumin (A) and thyroxine binding globulin (TBG) showed a clearly increased binding to PA (39%), indicating additional prealbumin-associated hyperthyroxinemia. The absolute values of PA, A and TBG were within the normal range. After removal of the TSH-producing adenoma, basal TSH, the free thyroid hormones and T4 binding to prealbumin returned to normal. Therefore, the prealbumin-associated hyperthyroxinemia had to be interpreted as a transitory phenomenon related to secondary hyperthyroidism (T4 shift from thyroxine binding globulin to prealbumin) rather than a genetically conditioned anomaly of protein binding.

Obturator hernia is a rare pelvic hernia which accounts for 1% of all abdominal hernia. Clinical manifestation is ussually unspecific. Obturator hernia is often diagnosed by computed tomography or ultrasound. We present a case of obturator hernia in an elderly women who was successfully diagnosed and treated at Hue Univeristy of Medicine and Pharmacy. Key words: obturator hernia, mechanical obstruction, intestinal obstruction, Richter obturator hernia, strangulation

Radical Surgical Resection

Background: Hemolymphangioma is a rare benign tumor. To the best of our knowledge, there were only 10 reports of this tumor of the pancreas until March 2018. Case Report: Here, we reported a large invasive hemolymphangioma of the pancreas in a young woman with a complaint of abdominal distension and an epigastric mass about 3 weeks. She was found to have a huge multilocular cystic tumor at the neck and body of pancreas on computed tomography. She was eventually diagnosed with hemolymphangioma of the pancreas after operation. After 2 years of follow-up, there was no signs of recurrence. Conclusion: From our case and literature, we can conclude that hemolymphangioma of the pancreas is uncommon benign tumor, and it is hard to make an accurate diagnosis preoperatively. Radical surgical resection should be performed whenever possible. The prognosis of this disease seems good.
