To explore effective treatment of large abdominal malignancies in children complicated with abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS).Six children with large abdominal malignancies complicated with ACS were admitted to our department from January 2013 to January 2016, and the changes in their breathing, heart rate, oxygen saturation, abdominal circumference, bladder pressure, and urine output, as we...

: A 62-year-old man was referred to our center with a sarcoma of his left chest wall ingrowth into the pericardium and transdiaphragmatically abdomen. The diagnostic delay for patient extensive, at approximately 3.5 years. Judging by tumor size local ingrowth, on first examination, we considered this be borderline resectable. treated induction radiotherapy, resulting in relief pain but no radio...

Purpose: A prospective, randomized trial was performed to determine if intra-abdominal drainage catheters are necessary after elective liver resection.

This study sought to identify factors related to the prognosis of intra-abdominal liposarcoma and to determine the optimal minimum duration for remnant tumor screening. Intra-abdominal liposarcoma is associated with high rates of incomplete resection and recurrence requiring a sophisticated follow-up strategy.Patients who underwent surgery for intra-abdominal liposarcoma were included. Cox anal...

UNLABELLED A 57-year old man was referred to the Urology Department due to gross hematuria; abdominal ultrasound revealed an unspecific solid tumor of the left bladder wall. Ultrasound, transurethral resection of the bladder mass with subsequent histological analysis, thoracic and abdominal computed tomography-scan and brain magnetic resonance imaging were performed. He was diagnosed with a bla...

A 50-year old female presented herself with abdominal bloating and pain in the Emergengy Department. The symptoms persisted and a clinical evaluation was made. A lesion suspect for a giant duodenal diverticulum was seen on the CT-scan, which was confirmed by enteroclysis. Surgical resection was performed. The diagnosis was histological confirmed after surgery. Small bowel diverticula are relati...

Primary retroperitoneal carcinoma is a rare but highly aggressive tumour often resulting in infiltration of abdominal organs and diaphragm. We describe a case of retroperitoneal carcinoma infiltrating the diaphragm, the lower lobe of the left lung and ribs IX and X, but sparing the abdominal organs. After thoracoabdominal access, our patient underwent resection of the retroperitoneal carcinoma,...

A 34-year-old patient was scheduled for valve replacement to treat a symptomatic mitral regurgitation. The preoperative work-up incidentally discovered an intra-abdominal cystic tumour extending from the epigastrium to the pelvic region on a computed tomography scan. The patient had no abdominal symptoms by the giant cyst from unkown origin. An open "en bloc" resection disclosed a large cyst in...

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumors (IMT) are a rare clinicopathological entity of yet unknown etiology and those located retroperitoneally are even rarer. Clinical outcome is unpredictable and complete surgical resection of the tumor remains the principal treatment. We report the case of a 41-year old man presented with abdominal pain. An abdominal magnetic resonance imaging scan revealed a re...
