The liver Metastatic Adenocarcinoma of Colorectal Cancer With Synchronous Isolated Hepatic Tuberculosis

which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. Tuberculosis is a global problem. According to the World Health Organization, more than 2 billion people are currently infected with tuberculosis bacilli and 1.7 million deaths attributed to TB in 2006 (1). TB usually occurs in lung and other form of it like primary abdomi...

Synchronous Resectable Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

To evaluate the value of lymph node status of primary tumors in predicting the prognosis of synchronous resectable metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). The characteristics of resectable mCRC are substantially different from other cancers, and the prognostic factors of resectable mCRC are still controversial. The data of 2007 patients with mCRC who received resection of the primary tumors and me...

T1 Colorectal Cancer with Synchronous Liver Metastasis

The patient was a 68-year-old man who was admitted to our hospital with a liver tumor. Abdominal ultrasonography and computed tomography revealed a liver tumor 30 mm in diameter. On colonoscopy, a pedunculated tumor with a central depression (20 mm in diameter) was observed in the ascending colon, and this tumor was considered to be invading deeply into the submucosal layer. Right hemicolectomy...

Colorectal cancer with synchronous liver metastases.

Hepatic toxicities associated with the use of preoperative systemic therapy in patients with metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma to the liver.

Colorectal cancer patients with isolated liver metastasis are potentially cured with surgical resection. Recent advances in systemic chemotherapy have increased the ability to convert unresectable metastatic liver lesions to resectable lesions. The cost in toxicity of these therapeutic advances is increasingly being recognized. Numerous reports have demonstrated an association between irinoteca...

Metastatic Thymic Adenocarcinoma from Colorectal Cancer

This report describes the case of a 57-year-old man with an anterior mediastinal tumor. Four years previously, he underwent laparoscopic anterior resection for sigmoid colon cancer. Thirty months after that procedure, bilateral pulmonary metastasectomy was performed. Twelve months later, follow-up computed tomography revealed a 1-cm pulmonary nodule on the upper lobe of the right lung and a sol...
