Article Abstract

En bloc resection is required for treatment of intermediate-grade talar tumors with extraosseous extension (Enneking stage 3) and malignant talar tumors without intra-articular invasion (Enneking stages IA and IIA). After resection, reconstruction options include tibiocalcaneal fusion, frozen autograft, and talar prosthesis; however, a talar prosthesis is preferable because it preserves ankle range of motion, does not cause leg length discrepancy, and is associated with good long-term outcomes. To the best of our knowledge, en bloc resection and reconstruction of a malignant talar tumor has not been previously reported in detail. We report a detailed surgical technique for en bloc resection of a malignant talar bone tumor using combined anterior and lateral approaches followed by reconstruction using a talar prosthesis.

Introduction And Importance: Chest wall tumors are common and predominantly benign. Exceptionally, long-standing evolution over decades can lead to the development of giant tumors, posing substantial technical and strategic challenges in determining the optimal surgical approach.

Presentation Of Case: We report a rare case of a giant pedunculated chest wall lipoma that had been growing for over 40 years in a 73-year-old man.

Background And Aims: Endoscopic resection for submucosal tumors (SMTs) in the esophagus and cardia is challenging with hazards of adverse events and the exploration of its achieving textbook outcome (TO) was unknown. We aim to investigate the predictors of TO for giant SMTs with a long diameter ≥ 7 cm or a transverse diameter ≥ 3.5 cm.

Colorectal polyps remain a significant health concern because they can develop into cancer. Therefore, accurate assessment and diagnosis of polyps, along with appropriate treatment decisions, are crucial in preventing complications or malignant transformation. Some polyps are classified as complex polyps, which means they fail to elevate due to a scar from a previously removed polyp or can be determined by a scoring system like the size/morphology/site/access score, which considers factors like site, morphology, size, and access.

Introduction: Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) is a promising technique for early-stage gastrointestinal neoplasms; however, its use for periappendiceal lesions poses challenges because of anatomical complexities and the potential risk of appendicitis or perforation. As a result, these lesions are often managed surgically. This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluate the safety and efficacy of ESD for periappendiceal lesions.

Background/aim: Endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) can be performed to treat laterally spreading duodenal papillary tumors (LSPTs). However, no studies have been conducted on the outcomes of ESDs for LSPTs.

Methods: We retrospectively compared 47 patients who underwent endoscopic papillectomies (EPs) for papillary tumors (PTs) between June 2007 and July 2023 (EP group) and eight patients who underwent ESDs for LSPTs between February 2022 and July 2023 (ESD group).
