lipomas of the gasterointestinal tract are relatively uncommon in clinical practice. most cases are asymptomatic with small tumor size and do not need any special treatment but the large ones are known to cause symptoms such as abdominal pain, obstruction, intussusceptions, and bleeding. the majority (90%) of these lesions are submucosal with predominantly right sided with a slight preponderanc...

In patients with rectal prolapse is the prevalence of colorectal cancer increased, suggesting that a colorectal tumor may induce rectal prolapse. Establishment of tumor xenografts in immunodeficient mice after orthotopic inoculations of human colorectal cancer cells into the caecal wall is a widely used approach for the study of human colorectal cancer progression and preclinical evaluation of ...

Background: The goals of the present research were to investigate the rectal dose during four chosen techniques of cervical cancer radiotherapy and to examine how accurately the treatment planning represents dose measurements, and it’s practicality for routine use as well as, to determine the homogeneity of dose in tumor volume. Materials and Methods: The study was carried out using a Nepton 10...

BACKGROUND Primary rectal lymphoma is a very uncommon disease, therefore, it has received little attention in the literature. Because of their rarity, rectal lymphomas are generally included in the group of large intestine lymphomas. CASE REPORT We report here a case of primary rectal B-cell lymphoma in a 67-year-old woman. The tumor was originally located in the rectum without evidence of an...

Background and aim Endoscopy and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are used routinely in the diagnostic and preoperative work-up of rectal cancer. We aimed to compare colonoscopy and MRI in determining rectal tumor height. Methods Between 2002 and 2012, all patients with rectal cancer with available MRIs and endoscopy reports were included. All MRIs were reassessed for tumor height by two abdo...

Primary hepatic non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) is an extremely rare disease that is commonly neglected as a possible diagnosis. The present study reports the case of a middle-aged male with chronic hepatitis B in which primary hepatic NHL and rectal cancer occurred simultaneously. A large solitary tumor in the left lobe of the liver was incidentally detected on routine examination prior to the la...

UNLABELLED The treatment of rectal cancer patients with large bowel obstruction (LBO) is a serious health care problem. That's why we have studied a possibility of conservative LBO treatment by the method of endoscopic recanalization. PATIENTS AND METHODS In the study there have been enrolled 47 rectal cancer patients with acute or partial LBO who were treated with endoscopic recanalization o...
