Abstract
OBJECTIVES De novo malignancy (DNM) is a major cause of death in long-term recipients of liver transplantation (LT). We herein report our experience with DNM after living-donor LT (LDLT). PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 111 LDLT procedures were performed in our institute from 1999 to 2022. Among them, 70 adult (>13 years old) LDLT recipients who survived for more than 1 year were included in this study. RESULTS During a median follow-up of 146 (range, 12-285) months, 7 out of 70 recipients developed 8 DNMs, including lung cancer in 4, post-transplant lymphoproliferative disease in 3, and skin cancer in 1. One patient developed metachronal skin cancer and post-transplant lymphoproliferative disease. The pre-LT smoking history rate in patients with DNM was higher than in patients without DNM (P = .004). The survival time after DNM was 6 (1-166) months. Only 2 patients underwent R0 resection. DNM did not recur during follow-up. Other patients who underwent R1 resection and/or chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy all died due to DNMs during the follow-up. The cumulative DNM incidence was 3.5% at 10 years and 18.4% at 20 years after LDLT. The cumulative survival rate in patients with DNM was significantly worse than that in patients without DNM after LDLT (P = .049). CONCLUSION The survival rate of patients with DNM was lower than that of those without DNM. A pre-LT smoking history is a risk factor for DNM. R0 resection is effective for improving the prognosis of patients with DNM. Regular cancer screening is important for detecting DNM early after LDLT.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES We aimed to clarify the clinical features and outcomes of ipsilateral inguinal hernias after kidney transplantation. PATIENTS AND METHODS Eleven patients diagnosed with inguinal hernia on the ipsilateral side after kidney transplantation between 2011 and 2022 were analyzed. Clinical data were retrospectively reviewed from the medical records. RESULT Eleven patients were included in the analysis (median age, 68 [range, 28-75] years, male, n = 11). The time from kidney transplantation to hernia surgery was 107 (6-393) months. Eight patients had direct-type inguinal hernias. Three had indirect-type inguinal hernias. Hernia contents included the small intestine (n = 5), transplanted ureter and bladder (n = 2), only bladder (n = 1), transplanted kidney, ureter, and small intestine (n = 1), transplanted kidney and small intestine (n = 1), and transplanted ureter (n = 1). Six patients (55%) were diagnosed with urinary tract obstruction due to inguinal hernia. All hernias were repaired using mesh. The plug method was used in 9 cases. The Lichtenstein method was used in 2 cases. The median operative time was 110 (73-155) minutes, and the median blood loss was 3 (1-85) mL. The median postoperative hospital stay was 4 (2-7) days. In the 6 patients with urinary obstruction, the serum creatinine levels improved (P = .028), and the transplanted urinary tract obstruction disappeared after surgery. There was no recurrence of inguinal hernia. One patient experienced chronic pain in the groin area (Clavien-Dindo grade II) during follow-up. CONCLUSION Surgical intervention for inguinal hernia after kidney transplantation is safe and effective for preventing worsening of the kidney graft function.

Abstract
The patient was a 61-year-old man with a diagnosis of carcinoma of the pancreatic head. Abdominal computed tomography( CT)showed no distant metastasis, and he underwent subtotal stomach-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy. Immediately after surgery, he received liver perfusion chemotherapy with 5-fluorouracil followed by systemic gemcitabine. Eighteen months after surgery, CT revealed liver metastasis in the S6 segment, and partial hepatectomy was performed. The pathological diagnosis was liver metastasis of pancreatic cancer. Postoperatively, the patient was treated with gemcitabine and S-1 therapy for 1 year and then switched to S-1 monotherapy for about 6 months. Four years after the initial surgery, CT showed 2 metastases in the right lung. After 2 months of S-1 monotherapy, wedge resection of the upper and lower lobes of the right lung was performed. Gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel therapy were administered, after the metastasectomy, but pleural dissemination appeared on CT 5 years after the initial surgery. Modified FOLFIRINOX therapy was started and continued for 8 months, but CT revealed further disseminated lesions in the diaphragm. Palliative irradiation was provided, but the disease gradually progressed. After multidisciplinary treatment, the patient survived for 6 years and 3 months after the initial surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to evaluate the adequate extent of regional lymphadenectomy according to tumor location and the impact of number-based nodal classification on survival in patients with non-ampullary duodenal adenocarcinoma (NADAC). METHODS A total of 85 patients with NADAC who underwent surgery were enrolled. The frequency of metastasis was calculated for each node group in the respective tumor locations for 63 patients who underwent lymphadenectomy for pT2-pT4 tumor. RESULTS The frequency of metastasis in the pancreaticoduodenal (nos. 13 and 17) and superior mesenteric artery (no. 14) nodes was high (16.7 %-52.3 %) regardless of tumor location. Metastasis in the perigastric (nos. 3 and 4d) and right celiac artery (no. 9) nodes was not uncommon (14.3 %-22.2 %) for tumors in the first portion. The frequency of metastasis in the pyloric (nos. 5 and 6) and the other peripancreaticoduodenal (nos. 8 and 12) nodes varied depending on tumor location but could not be ignored for staging. When these nodes were classified as regional nodes, the 5-year survival in patients with pN0, pN1 (1-2 positive nodes), and pN2 (≥3 positive nodes) were 82.9 %, 51.7 %, and 19.2 %, respectively (p < 0.001). pN classification independently predicted survival (pN1, p = 0.022; pN2, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Nos. 5, 6, 8, 12, 13, 14, and 17 nodes in all advanced NADAC and nos. 3, 4d, and 9 nodes in advanced NADAC in the first portion should be considered as regional nodes for accurate staging. The number-based nodal classification allows good patients' prognostic stratification.

Abstract
A 57-year-old man was diagnosed as having resectable advanced esophageal carcinoma adjacent to the trachea(Ut, cT3N0M0)and received preoperative docetaxel, cisplatin, and 5-fluorouracil therapy. Due to tracheal tumor invasion and upstaging to cT4bN0M0 after 1 course of chemotherapy, the treatment was converted to definitive chemoradiotherapy (CRT). A remarkable response with no evidence of tracheal invasion was observed on computed tomography following definitive CRT. He underwent successful curative resection with salvage esophagectomy, and the resected tumor was staged as pT1bN0M0. No adjuvant therapy was administered, and the patient was alive with no evidence of disease at the 5-year postoperative follow-up. The response to preoperative treatment should be meticulously assessed and appropriate treatment modalities used to avoid overlooking the potential for cure, even if the response to preoperative treatment with docetaxel, cisplatin, and 5-fluorouracil is poor.

Abstract
An 87-year-old woman with a gradually enlarging mass in her left breast, diagnosed as having left-sided breast cancer with skin invasion by a local practitioner, was referred to our hospital. Computed tomography revealed ascending colon cancer with abdominal wall invasion and a thoracic aortic aneurysm(Stanford type B), in addition to breast cancer with skin invasion. A thoracic endovascular aortic repair and bypass surgery between the subclavian arteries were both performed for the thoracic aortic aneurysm. After 6 days, a right hemicolectomy and D2 lymphadenectomy were performed for the ascending colon cancer. A postoperative pathological diagnosis of pT3N0M0, pStage Ⅱa, was made. A total left mastectomy with a full-thickness skin graft for left breast cancer was performed after 2 months following the ascending colon cancer surgery. The postoperative pathological diagnosis was pT3N0M0, pStage ⅡB. No evidence of local recurrence or distant metastasis of the ascending colon cancer has been observed at 20 months postoperatively, or of the breast cancer after 18 months following surgery.

Abstract
A 75-year-old woman presented to our hospital with abdominal pain and melena. Colonoscopy revealed an ulcer at the appendiceal orifice. Histopathological examination of biopsy specimens revealed adenocarcinoma. Computed tomography showed an appendiceal mass of 11.8×6.7 cm in size involving the cecum and terminal ileum without any distant metastatic findings. Ileocecal resection with regional lymph node dissection to the root of the ileocolonic artery was performed. Histopathological examination of the specimen revealed appendiceal adenocarcinoma. Molecular subtype of the tumor was BRAF V600E mutation and microsatellite instability-high(MSI-H). The pathological stage was pT4bpN1bcM0, pStage ⅢC. She received 8 courses of CapeOX as adjuvant chemotherapy and no recurrence was noted 12 months following the surgery. The establishment of standard treatment strategies including surgery, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy for carcinoma of the appendix with BRAF V600E mutation and/or MSI-H is needed.

Abstract
A 66-year-old man was referred to our hospital with fever and abdominal pain. CT showed a mass in the intrapancreatic bile duct but no wall thickness in the perihilar bile ducts. Neither regional lymphadenopathy nor distant metastasis was observed. Biliary cytology showed adenocarcinoma. The diagnosis was distal cholangiocarcinoma, and pancreatoduodenectomy was performed. Intraoperative frozen section examination of the ductal resection margins at the right and left hepatic ducts was positive for carcinoma in situ, and the operation ultimately completed with R1 resection. Histological examination confirmed a diagnosis of cholangiocarcinoma with superficial spread and a single positive lymph node. Adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1 was administered for 1 year. Anastomotic recurrence at the hepaticojejunostomy was found 5 years after resection; biopsy specimens revealed adenocarcinoma. Thereafter, S-1 chemotherapy was resumed, and the patient remains alive and well 9 years and 1 month after resection.

Abstract
A 58-year-old woman presented with a complaint of weight loss. Abdominal computed tomography showed dilatation of the biliary and pancreatic ducts and a mural nodule in the pancreatic duct. The diagnosis was intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm(IPMN). Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP)and cholangioscopy revealed a fistula between the common bile duct and the IPMN. A sudden increase in hepatobiliary enzymes was noted preoperatively. ERCP showed that the common bile duct was obstructed by mucus. A nasobiliary drainage tube was inserted into the bile duct endoscopically and kept open by daily tube washing, and the liver dysfunction improved. Total pancreatectomy, splenectomy, and regional lymph node dissection were performed. Histological examination confirmed that the primary tumor was mixed invasive intraductal papillary mucinous adenocarcinoma. The patient remains alive and well with no evidence of recurrence 18 months after resection.

Abstract
We report a case of biliary cystadenocarcinoma in which long-term survival was achieved after 2 operations for intrahepatic recurrence. A 72-year-old man with biliary cystadenocarcinoma located mainly in segment 3 of the liver underwent left hepatectomy, extrahepatic bile duct resection, and lymph node dissection. Seven years and 9 months after the initial resection, he underwent partial liver resection(segment 5)for intrahepatic recurrence detected by computed tomography. Fifteen years and 7 months after the initial resection, he underwent repeat partial resection of the liver(segment 5)for intrahepatic recurrence. Histologically, these tumors were confirmed to be recurrence of biliary cystadenocarcinoma. He remains alive and well with no further recurrence 21 years and 6 months after the initial resection. This case and a literature review suggest that hepatic resection is a useful treatment option for intrahepatic recurrence of biliary cystadenocarcinoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) is a pleiotropic, bioactive, lipid mediator, produced by sphingosine kinase 1 (SphK1). In this study, we evaluated the expression of phosphorylated SphK1 (pSphK1) in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and investigated its clinical significance. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 111 patients who underwent curative-intent resection for PDAC were enrolled. We investigated pSphK1 (Ser-225) expression in surgically resected specimens of PDAC using immunohistochemistry. The patients were divided into two groups according to pSphK1 immunoreactive expression: a pSphK1-high group (n=63) and a pSphK1-low group (n=48). RESULTS Logistic regression analyses revealed that lymphatic invasion (p=0.007) was a significantly independent factor associated with high pSphK1 immunoreactive expression. The pSphK1-high group showed significantly worse disease-specific survival (DSS) than the pSphK1-low group (5-year DSS rate, 19.6% vs. 58.7%; p=0.001). High pSphK1 immunoreactive expression (hazard ratio=2.547; 95% confidence interval= 1.434-4.527; p=0.001) was an independent prognostic factor for DSS. CONCLUSION High pSphK1 expression is independently associated with lymphatic invasion and unfavorable prognosis in PDAC patients. Thus, the SphK1-S1P axis may be important in mechanisms of tumor progression, such as lymphatic invasion, in PDAC patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The definition and classification of regional nodes are not standardized for perihilar cholangiocarcinoma. This study aimed to clarify the rational extent of regional lymphadenectomy and to elucidate the impact of number-based regional nodal classification on survival of patients with this disease. METHODS Data of 136 patients with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma who underwent surgery were reviewed. The incidence of metastasis and the survival of patients with metastasis were calculated for each node group. RESULTS The incidence of metastasis for the node groups in the hepatoduodenal ligament (denoted as no. 12) ranged from 3.7% to 25.4%, with 5-year disease-specific survival of 12.9% to 33.3% for patients with metastasis. The incidences of metastasis in the common hepatic artery (no. 8) and posterior superior pancreaticoduodenal (no. 13a) node groups were 14.4% and 11.2%, respectively, with 5-year disease-specific survival rates of 16.7% and 20.0% for the patients with metastasis. When these node groups were defined as regional nodes, the 5-year disease-specific survival rates for the patients with pN0 (n = 80), pN1 (1-3 positive nodes, n = 38), and pN2 (≥ 4 positive nodes, n = 18) were 61.4%, 22.9%, and 17.6%, respectively (p < 0.001). The pN classification was independently associated with disease-specific survival (p < 0.001). When only the no. 12 node groups were regarded as regional nodes, pN classification failed to stratify the patients prognostically. CONCLUSIONS No. 8 and no. 13a node groups should be considered regional nodes in addition to no. 12 node groups and should be dissected. The number-based regional nodal classification allows patients with this disease to be stratified prognostically.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to clarify potential candidates for anatomic resection (AR) among patients with pathological T1-T2 (pT1-T2) hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and to determine whether AR is effective for HCC with microscopic vascular invasion (MVI). METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 288 patients with pT1a (n = 50), pT1b (n = 134) or pT2 (n = 104) HCC who underwent curative-intent resection between 1990 and 2010. Surgical outcomes were compared between patients who underwent AR (n = 189) and those who underwent nonanatomic resection (NAR; n = 99) according to pT category and MVI status. RESULTS Patients who underwent AR were more likely to have good hepatic functional reserve and an aggressive primary tumor than those who underwent NAR. When patients were stratified according to pT category, AR had a more favorable impact on survival than NAR only in patients with pT2 HCC in univariate (5-year survival, 51.5% vs. 34.6%; p = 0.010) and multivariate analysis (hazard ratio 0.505; p = 0.014). However, AR had no impact on survival in patients with pT1a or pT1b HCC. In patients with MVI (n = 57), AR achieved better survival than NAR (5-year survival, 52.0% vs. 16.7%; p = 0.019) and was an independent prognostic factor (hazard ratio 0.335; p = 0.020). In patients without MVI (n = 231), there was no significant difference in survival between the two groups (p = 0.221). CONCLUSION AR was identified as an independent factor in improved survival in patients with pT2 HCC or HCC with MVI.

Abstract
We report a case of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma(ICC)with lymph node metastases in which long-term survival was achieved after surgery followed by chemotherapy. A 69-year-old man underwent left hepatectomy, extrahepatic bile duct resection, and lymph node dissection for ICC located mainly in segment 4 of the liver with enlarged lymph nodes in the hepatoduodenal ligament. The histopathologically confirmed diagnosis was ICC(T2N1M0, Stage ⅣA)with 3 positive lymph nodes(No. 12a1, No. 12p1, and No. 12p2). He received chemotherapy with gemcitabine(GEM)plus cisplatin(CDDP)for 9 months, followed by GEM monotherapy for 4 months, and then S-1 monotherapy was started. A right lung nodule was detected 12 months after the initiation of S-1 monotherapy. He received GEM plus S-1 therapy for 28 months, followed by S-1 monotherapy, leading to disappearance of the lung nodule. He remains alive and well without disease 78 months after surgery. Our experience in this case suggests that radical resection followed by chemotherapy may provide a survival benefit in selected patients who have ICC with nodal disease.

Abstract
A 74-year-old man presented to our hospital with a mass in the left supraclavicular fossa. He was diagnosed with advanced gastric cancer with liver metastasis and left supraclavicular and para-aortic lymph node metastasis, cT3N2M1 (LYM, HEP), cStage Ⅳ(the Union for International Cancer Control, TNM 7th edition). He received a total of 3 courses of S- 1 plus cisplatin therapy. Since he developed adverse reactions such as anorexia, renal dysfunction, and thrombocytopenia and the tumor was HER2-positive, he received 25 courses of capecitabine, cisplatin, and trastuzumab chemotherapy. Three years and 2 months after the first chemotherapy, remarkable tumor reduction was observed. The patient then underwent radical distal gastrectomy with D2 lymphadenectomy, and R0 resection was achieved. The histopathological diagnosis was ypT1aN0M0, ypStage ⅠA. Chemotherapy with trastuzumab may improve the long-term prognosis of HER2-positive Stage Ⅳ gastric cancer if the disease is controlled and radical resection can be achieved.

Abstract
A woman in her 60s had been aware of perianal erosions for 1 month. Skin biopsy showed Paget's cells in the stratified squamous epithelium, and immunohistochemistry showed negative staining for CK7 and positive staining for CK20. Colonoscopy revealed well-differentiated adenocarcinoma in the anal canal. Computed tomography showed neither regional lymph node metastasis nor distant metastasis. Hence, she was diagnosed with anal canal carcinoma with pagetoid spread. We determined the extent of resection of the skin lesion preoperatively by mapping biopsy, and performed laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection. The pathological findings revealed adenocarcinoma(tub1, tub2), and the skin resection margin was negative. Immunohistochemistry for Paget's cells in the stratified squamous epithelium showed negative staining for GCDFP-15 and CK7, and positive staining for CK20. Twenty-four months after surgery, we detected right inguinal lymph node metastasis and performed right inguinal lymphadenectomy. As of 4 months after the lymphadenectomy, no local recurrence or distant metastasis has been detected during follow-up examinations.

Abstract
The patient was a 71-year-old man with a diagnosis of duodenal carcinoma. Abdominal computed tomography(CT) showed no distant metastasis, and he underwent subtotal stomach-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy. Postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy was not administered. A left supraclavicular lymph node recurrence was detected on CT 15 months after surgery. Capecitabine and oxaliplatin(CAPOX)therapy was administered and the metastatic lesion shrank. Positron emission tomography(PET)-CT showed no lesions at other sites and left cervical lymph node dissection was performed 5 months after the recurrence. Postoperative adjuvant therapy with S-1 was administered for 6 months. However, 2 years and 10 months after the first recurrence, CT showed recurrence in the left supraclavicular lymph node. CAPOX therapy was resumed, but due to an allergic reaction to oxaliplatin, the patient was treated with capecitabine alone. The recurrent lesion was gradually increased in size, and FOLFIRI therapy was introduced. One year and 5 months after secondary recurrence, PET-CT showed that the second recurrent lesion had grown but was confined to the left supraclavicular lymph node, so radiation therapy(60 Gy)to the left neck was performed. The disease was stable for about 10 months and chemotherapy could be discontinued. The lesion increased in size thereafter, and the patient died 7 years after initial surgery.

Abstract
With the discovery of bacterial symbiosis in the tissues of various cancers, the study of the tumor microbiome is attracting a great deal of attention. Anatomically, since the gastrointestinal tract, liver, and pancreas form a continuous ductal structure, the microbiomes in the digestive juices of these organs may influence each other. Here, we report a series of microbiome data in tumor-associated tissues such as tumor, non-tumor, and lymph nodes, and body fluids such as saliva, gastric juice, pancreatic juice, bile, and feces of patients with pancreatic or biliary tract cancers. The results show that the microbiome of tumor-associated tissues has a very similar bacterial composition, but that in body fluids has different bacterial composition which varies by location, where some bacteria localize to specific body fluids. Surprisingly, Akkermansia was only detected in the bile of patients with biliary tract cancer and its presence was significantly associated with the performance of external biliary drainage (P = 0.041). Furthermore, we found that tumor-associated tissues and body fluids in deep inner body are mostly inhabited by unidentified and uncharacterized bacteria, suggesting that such bacteria may be potential targets for precision therapy in the future.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Tripartite motif-containing protein 37 (TRIM37) is an oncogenic histone H2A ubiquitin ligase that is overexpressed in a subset of breast cancers. TRIM37 was suggested to be associated with chemotherapy resistance and metastasis of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) in in vivo and in vitro studies. Breast cancer with TRIM37 amplification is sensitive to polo-like kinase 4 (PLK4) inhibition. On the other hand, clinical relevance of TRIM37 in breast cancer was never investigated. Material and Methods: Total of 6836 breast cancer patients from three large patient cohorts (Molecular Taxonomy of Breast Cancer International Consortium (METABRIC), The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), GSE96058, GSE25066 and GSE20194. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) was performed. The high and low expression of TRIM37 gene were divided by median. Results: TRIM37 expression was significantly associated with worse survival (disease-free (DFS), disease-specific (DSS), and overall survival (OS)) in ER-positive/HER2-negative breast cancer (p=0.012, p=0.011, and p=0.003, respectively), but not in the other subtypes. TRIM37 expression was higher in HER2-positive among the subtypes. TRIM37 expression correlated with Nottingham histological grade (p<0.001), and with MKI-67 expression (p<0.001) consistently in METABRIC and GSE96058 cohorts. TRIM37 high expression enriched cell proliferation-related gene sets; E2F targets, G2M checkpoints, mitotic spindle, and MYC targets v1 and v2, as well as DNA repair gene sets regardless of subtypes. TRIM37 high expression was also associated with RAD51C and/or PLK4 expression, which are DNA repair related genes. In agreement, silent and non-silent mutation rate and altered fraction were all significantly elevated in TRIM37 high tumors regardless of subtypes. TRIM37 expression correlated with response to Cisplatin, Paclitaxel, and Tamoxifen in breast cancer cell line study (r=0.655, r=0.446, and r=0.9, respectively). TRIM37 high tumors demonstrated significantly worse pathological complete response after neoadjuvant chemotherapy in ER-positive/HER2-negative patients (p=0.002), but the opposite in TNBC (p=0.025) in GSE25066 cohort, but this result was not validated by GSE20194, a cohort with very small samples size. Interestingly, TRIM37 low expression enriched immune related gene sets; inflammatory response, IL2 signaling, IL6 signaling, TNF-a signaling, and allograft rejection in ER-positive/HER2-negative patients, but not in TNBC. Indeed, CD8 central memory T cells and CD4 effector memory T cells are highly infiltrated in TRIM37 low tumors consistently in both METABRIC and GSE96058 in ER-positive/HER2-negative patients, but not in TNBC. Taken together, TRIM37 high expression was associated with cell proliferation regardless of subtypes, but TRIM37 low expression was associated with high tumor infiltrating lymphocytes and immune response that may have contributed to the survival difference in ER-positive/HER2-negative patients, but not in TNBC. Conclusions: In conclusion, TRIM37 expression is associated with cell proliferation and DNA repair, less tumor infiltrating lymphocytes and immune response, and with worse survival in ER-positive/HER2-negative breast cancer.

Abstract
A 62-year-old man was incidentally found to have a pancreatic tumor by CT. He was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer by EUS-FNAB. Gemcitabine(GEM)plus nab-paclitaxel(PTX)was started as neoadjuvant chemotherapy(NAC)for resectable pancreatic cancer. However, after the end of the second course, the tumor grew rapidly and invaded the stomach, so NAC was discontinued, and surgery was performed. The pathological diagnosis was anaplastic ductal carcinoma of the pleomorphic cell type, and the histological response was Grade 1a. Multiple liver metastases appeared during adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1, so GEM plus nab-PTX and modified FOLFIRINOX were administered, but the therapeutic response was poor, the patient died 9 months after surgery. Anaplastic carcinoma has a poor response to chemotherapy and may be included with cancers showing treatment resistance to NAC, as seen in our case. It is necessary to pay attention to anaplastic carcinoma during the course of NAC for pancreatic cancer.

Abstract
A 72-year-old man had a chief complaint of anal pain and difficulty in defecation. He was diagnosed with adenocarcinoma by biopsy from a tumor of the anal canal. A computed tomography scan revealed neither regional lymph node metastasis nor distant metastasis. Hence, he was diagnosed with cT3N0M0, cStage Ⅱa anal canal cancer. Preoperative capecitabine- based chemoradiotherapy(CRT)(50.4 Gy in 28 fractions of 1.8 Gy each)was implemented. Digital rectal examination and imaging evaluation 8 weeks after preoperative CRT revealed that the tumor had shrunk. Fifteen weeks after preoperative CRT, laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection was performed. The pathological findings showed mucinous adenocarcinoma associated with anal fistula. At present, 12 months after the operation, no local recurrence and distant metastasis has been detected under follow-up evaluations.

Abstract
A 70-year-old female with liver metastases from gastrointestinal stromal tumor(GIST)that were found 3 months after partial gastrectomy for the primary GIST underwent Auchincloss operation for left breast cancer with ipsilateral axillary lymph node metastases. The diagnosis was microinvasive ductal cancer that was pT1miN1M0, pStage ⅡA, hormone receptor negative, and HER2 positive. Given the impact of this cancer on the prognosis of liver metastases of GIST, imatinib therapy, but not adjuvant chemotherapy, was started promptly for breast cancer after surgery. Four months after the surgery, left subclavian lymph node recurrence of breast cancer was found. Since the liver metastases of GIST had been stable, imatinib was discontinued, and paclitaxel and anti-HER2 therapy were administered. After confirming tolerability, imatinib was carefully added in combination. Because the lymph nodes shrank and liver metastases of GIST were stable, both anti-HER2 therapy and imatinib were continued. There are few reports of combined chemotherapy for synchronous double cancer, and we report our experience in which careful treatment was required.

Abstract
The patient was a 64-year-old man with diagnosis of pancreatic head cancer. Initially, abdominal CT showed pancreatic head tumor with bile duct invasion and no distant metastases including para-aortic lymph nodes(PALN). Although, subtotal stomach-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy(SSPPD)and PALN sampling was performed, intraoperative frozen section examination revealed PALN metastasis. He had chronic kidney disease and was unsuitable for standard chemotherapy, SSPPD and PALN dissection was performed instead of standard chemotherapy. Histopathological examination of the resected specimens revealed invasive ductal carcinoma in the pancreatic head region and 11 nodes out of the 17 dissected PALN. Adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1 was performed. 22 months after surgery, intraabdominal lymph nodes metastasis and lung metastasis was found. 24 months after surgery, palliative radiation therapy at a dose of 40 Gy was performed. Systemic chemotherapy with gemcitabine alone was performed, but he was dead 67 months after the initial therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to investigate the impact of surgery on outcomes in patients with recurrent biliary tract cancer (BTC) and elucidate factors affecting survival after surgery for this disease. METHODS A single-center study was undertaken in 178 patients with recurrent BTC, of whom 24 underwent surgery for recurrence, 85 received chemotherapy, and 69 received best supportive care. Then, we carried out a multicenter study in 52 patients undergoing surgery for recurrent BTC (gallbladder cancer, 39%; distal cholangiocarcinoma, 27%; perihilar cholangiocarcinoma, 21%; intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, 13%). RESULTS In the single-center study, 3-year survival after recurrence was 53% in patients who underwent surgery, 4% in those who received chemotherapy, and 0% in those who received best supportive care (p < 0.001). Surgery was an independently prognostic factor (p < 0.001). In the multicenter series, the respective 3-year and 5-year survival after surgery for recurrence was 50% and 29% in the 52 patients. Initial site of recurrence was the only independent prognostic factor (p = 0.019). Five-year survival after surgery for recurrence in patients with single distant, multifocal distant, and locoregional recurrence was 51%, 0%, and 0%, respectively (p = 0.002). Sites of single distant recurrence included the liver (n = 13, 54%), distant lymph nodes (all from gallbladder cancer, n = 7, 29%), lung (n = 2, 9%), peritoneum (n = 1, 4%), and abdominal wall (n = 1, 4%). CONCLUSION Surgery may be an effective option for patients with less aggressive tumor biology characterized by single distant recurrence in recurrent BTC.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to elucidate the impact of anatomic location of residual disease (RD) after initial cholecystectomy on survival following re-resection of incidental gallbladder cancer (IGBC). METHODS Patients with pT2 or pT3 gallbladder cancer (36 with IGBC and 171 with non-IGBC) who underwent resection were analyzed. Patients with IGBC were classified as follows according to the anatomic location of RD after initial cholecystectomy: no RD (group 1); RD in the gallbladder bed, stump of the cystic duct, and/or regional lymph nodes (group 2); and RD in the extrahepatic bile duct and/or distant sites (group 3). RESULTS Timing of resection (IGBC vs. non-IGBC) did not affect survival in either multivariate or propensity score matching analysis. RD was found in 16 (44.4%) of the 36 patients with IGBC; R0 resection following re-resection was achieved in 32 patients (88.9%). Overall survival (OS) following re-resection was worse in group 3 (n = 7; 5-year OS, 14.3%) than in group 2 (n = 9; 5-year OS, 55.6%) (p = 0.035) or in group 1 (n = 20; 5-year OS, 88.7%) (p < 0.001). There was no survival difference between groups 1 and 2 (p = 0.256). Anatomic location of RD was independently associated with OS (group 2, HR 2.425, p = 0.223; group 3, HR 9.627, p = 0.024). CONCLUSION The anatomic location of RD independently predicts survival following re-resection, which is effective for locoregional disease control in IGBC, similar to resection for non-IGBC. Not all patients with RD have poor survival following re-resection for IGBC.

Abstract
PURPOSE Outcomes following surgery for advanced gallbladder carcinoma remain unsatisfactory. This study aimed to determine the surgical outcome and effectiveness of adjuvant chemotherapy according to TNM stage in patients with gallbladder carcinoma. METHODS A total of 200 patients undergoing surgery for gallbladder carcinoma were enrolled. Clinicopathological data were evaluated and surgical outcomes were compared between patients with and without adjuvant chemotherapy according to TNM stage. RESULTS The 5-year overall survival (OS) after resection for patients with stage I (n = 27), IIA (n = 18), IIB (n = 28), IIIA (n = 25), IIIB (n = 43), IVA (n = 7), and IVB (n = 52) disease was 90.8%, 94.4%, 73.6%, 33.7%, 57.7%, 14.3%, and 11.8%, respectively (p < 0.001). R0 resection was performed in all patients with stage I or II disease, in 89.7% of those with stage III disease, and 69.5% of those with stage IV disease. For patients with stage III disease, adjuvant chemotherapy was associated with improved OS (5-year OS, 60.9% vs. 41.1%; p = 0.028) and was an independent prognostic factor (hazard ratio, 2.045; p = 0.039). For patients with stage IV disease, adjuvant chemotherapy appeared to affect OS (5-year OS, 25.1% vs. 5.3%; p = 0.041); R0 resection (hazard ratio, 1.882; p = 0.040) was the only independent prognostic factor. CONCLUSION TNM stage clearly predicts survival after resection of gallbladder carcinoma. R0 resection with adjuvant chemotherapy is recommended for long-term survival in the multimodal management of patients with stage III or IV gallbladder carcinoma.

Abstract
A 72-year-old man was referred to our hospital for treatment for rectal cancer. Digital rectal examination and colonoscopy revealed a 4 cm tumor located at the anterior rectal wall 5 cm away from the anal verge, and pathological examination confirmed that the tumor was adenocarcinoma. A computed tomography scan detected neither regional lymph node metastasis nor distant metastasis. Hence, he was diagnosed with cT3N0M0, cStage Ⅱa rectal cancer. The preoperative general examination revealed bradyarrhythmia and severe emphysema, and he was considered to be high risk for general anesthesia. After placement of a pacemaker, preoperative capecitabine-based chemoradiotherapy(CRT)(50.4 Gy in 28 fractions of 1.8 Gy each)was implemented. The digital rectal examination and imaging evaluation 4 weeks after preoperative CRT revealed that the tumor disappeared, and pathological examination showed no malignant findings. Considering the risks of general anesthesia, the"watch and wait therapy"approach was adopted with sufficient informed consent. At present, 15 months after preoperative CRT, no evidence of regrowth or distant metastasis has been detected under rigorous follow- up evaluations.

Abstract
A 64-year-old man with liver dysfunction was given a diagnosis of perihilar cholangiocarcinoma(Bismuth type Ⅳ). The tumor was predominantly right-sided and invaded to the bifurcation of the right and left portal veins. After confirming sufficient liver functional reserve and future liver remnant, the patient underwent extended right hepatectomy, extrahepatic bile duct resection, and portal vein resection and reconstruction. Intraoperative examination of frozen sections revealed the presence of residual invasive carcinoma on both the hepatic and duodenal sides of the ductal resection margins. However, we did not perform pancreaticoduodenectomy or additional resection of the margin-positive proximal bile duct considering the curability and invasiveness of these procedures. He received postoperative chemotherapy with biweekly gemcitabine plus cisplatin for 1 year, followed by gemcitabine monotherapy for 1 year, and S-1 monotherapy has been performed since then. He remains alive and well with no evidence of disease 63 months after surgery.

Abstract
The patient was a 63-year-old woman with diagnosis of pancreatic cancer. Abdominal CT showed pancreatic head tumor and paraaortic lymph node metastasis. We performed chemotherapy with nab-paclitaxel plus gemcitabine. After 5 courses of chemotherapy, the tumor reduced in size. Pancreaticoduodenectomy followed by adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1 was performed. Fourteen months after surgery, umbilical metastasis(Sister Mary Joseph's nodule: SMJN)was found in the umbilicus near the abdominal incisional hernia. There was no evidence of metastasis except in the umbilicus, we performed the umbilical tumor resection and abdominal incisional hernia repair. Pathological diagnosis was pancreatic cancer metastasis. Although following chemotherapy, multiple skin metastases was found in the lower abdomen 3 months after umbilical resection. We performed skin metastases resection to relieve pain and symptoms of bleeding. But she died 29 months after the initial therapy(7 months after umbilical resection).

Abstract
A 73-year-old man presented with anemia, and gastroscopy showed a nonpigmented tumor in the esophagogastric junction. The result of the tumor biopsy initially suspected poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. However, additional immunohistochemical examination revealed malignant melanoma. The final diagnosis was amelanotic malignant melanoma of the esophagogastric junction with adrenal and spinal metastasis. Although immunotherapy was performed, the patient died 132 days after diagnosis.

Abstract
Here, we report about a woman in her 30s who had peritoneal dissemination and multiple colon cancer with high-frequency microsatellite instability(MSI-H). Her father, paternal grandfather, and maternal grandmother had a history of colorectal cancer treatment. Thus, Lynch syndrome was suspected. We performed R0 resection for peritoneal dissemination and subsequent peritoneal dissemination. A 435-gene panel testing using a next-generation sequencer identified MSH2 and other mutations in the tumor. Hence, we speculated that she could have a germline mutation of MSH2, which causes Lynch syndrome. In the future, if she wishes to receive genetic counseling and undergo germline testing for variants to confirm the diagnosis of Lynch syndrome, we will perform them after receiving informed consent.

Abstract
A 68-year-old male patient received a living donor kidney transplantation 8 years earlier for end-stage kidney disease secondary to IgA nephropathy. His post-transplantation follow-up had been routinely performed with laboratory examinations, ultrasound, and computed tomography (CT). His kidney graft function had been excellent and stable, as shown by a baseline serum creatinine level of 1.0 mg/dL. At referral, regular follow-up ultrasound and CT showed allograft hydroureteronephrosis. He did not have any complaints, but his physical examination revealed right inguinal bulging that was 3.5 × 3.5 cm. Abdominal enhanced CT revealed transplant allograft hydroureteronephrosis due to ipsilateral herniation of ureteroneocystostomy into the right inguinal canal. His serum creatinine level was slightly elevated (1.1 mg/dL). Then, he underwent an open right inguinal hernia repair. Paraperitoneal allograft hydroureteronephrosis and bladder herniation was confirmed at surgery, and hernioplasty with polypropylene mesh reinforcement was successfully performed. The postoperative course was uneventful. He was discharged on the seventh day after surgery. Six weeks after surgery, CT revealed disappearance of allograft hydroureteronephrosis and no sign of inguinal hernia recurrence with the serum creatinine stable at 1.0 mg/dL. Transplant ureteral obstruction due to inguinal hernia is a rare complication after kidney transplantation. However, transplant ureter or bladder herniation should be considered in the differential diagnosis of graft hydroureteronephrosis for preventing allograft loss.

Abstract
A 77-year-old woman presented with peritoneal metastases from a pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor(p-NET). At the age of 56 years, she underwent distal pancreatectomy for p-NET, which was pathologically diagnosed as G2. She underwent right hemihepatectomy for liver metastasis(S6)from the p-NET 10 years post-pancreatectomy. Eight years post-hepatectomy, radiofrequency ablation(RFA)was attempted for liver metastasis(S4)from the p-NET. However, RFA was not completed because of hematoma development along the needle tract of RFA. She underwent partial hepatectomy for this lesion 6 months post-RFA. Two years post-RFA, localized peritoneal metastases on the right diaphragm were detected. She underwent en bloc tumor resection with partial resection of the diaphragm. She remains alive and well with no evidence of disease 2 years post-resection of the peritoneal metastases from the p-NET.

Abstract
A 62-year-old man was admitted with complaints of bloody stool. Colonoscopy revealed a 5 cm diameter type 2 tumor in the lower rectum close to the anal canal. Tumor biopsy indicated a well-differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma. Computed tomography revealed locally advanced rectal cancer with mesorectal lymph node metastases(cT3N1P0M0, Stage Ⅲa, JSCCR 8th). The patient was treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy(NAC)after transverse colostomy as an anus-preserving procedure. For the NAC, 12 courses of capecitabine plus oxaliplatin(CapeOX)and bevacizumab(BV)were administered. Colonoscopy after NAC revealed that the main tumor had considerably shrunk. No malignant tissues were found on biopsy. However, rectal wall thickness remained unchanged. Therefore, response evaluation for chemotherapy indicated partial response. Intersphincteric resection(ISR)with diverting loop ileostomy was performed as an anus-preserving surgical procedure. No remnant tumor in the rectum or lymph node metastases were found upon the pathological examination of resected specimens. Ileostomy closure was performed at 6 months post-ISR. At 12 months post-ISR, the patient was well and showed no signs of recurrence. This case demonstrated that NAC with CapeOX and BV can be a promising option for treating locally advanced lower rectal cancer and preserving the anus.

Abstract
A 65-year-old woman was referred for further examination following positive results on a fecal occult blood test. Colonoscopy revealed type 0-Ⅱa cancer, with a lesion measuring 2 cm in diameter in the rectosigmoid colon, and type 5 cancer, with a lesion measuring 6 cm in diameter in the upper rectum. Computed tomography(CT)and positron emission tomography (PET)-CT revealed mesorectal lymph node metastases. Therefore, she was diagnosed with rectosigmoid colon cancer(Stage Ⅰ)and upper rectal cancer(Stage Ⅲa). However, PET-CT also revealed slight fluorodeoxyglucose uptake in the paraaortic and lateral lymph node lesions; hence, the possibility ofmetastasis could not be ruled out. Given that chemotherapy was restricted due to renal dysfunction, low anterior resection was performed as the first choice. Analysis of intraoperative frozen sections showed paraaortic and lateral lymph node metastases; thus, we performed lymph node dissection of these lesions. Pathological examination ofthe resected lymph nodes revealed that 21 of 37 lesions were cancer metastases. S-1 was administered as adjuvant chemotherapy for 5 months. Mediastinal lymph node metastases was suspected on chest CT 5 months and 3 years post-surgery; thus, panitumumab was administrated. These lymph nodes decreased in size immediately. Six years after the first surgery, the patient was well without any signs of recurrence.

Abstract
A 37-year-old man was admitted to our hospital for the treatment of familial adenomatous polyposis and rectal carcinoma. He underwent total colectomy with ileoanal anastomosis(pT3N1M0, pStage Ⅲa)followed by adjuvant therapy with S-1. Three months after primary surgery, CT and MRIrevealed liver metastases(S5, S6). Laparoscopic partial hepatectomy was performed. Two years after primary surgery, new liver metastases(S2, S8)were found and we performed open partial hepatectomy and administered mFOLFOX6. Three years and 5 months after primary surgery, right lung metastases(S6, S9) were detected and the patient underwent a thoracoscopic-assisted right lung wedge resection. Repeated resection of metastases might have contributed to the long-survival in our case.

Abstract
AIM This study aimed to determine surgical outcomes in patients with gynecological cancers for whom surgery was performed by gynecologists and digestive surgeons. METHODS Seventy-three patients who underwent surgery for a gynecological malignant tumor from January 2010 to December 2014 were included in this retrospective study. Data on the definitive diagnosis, operative procedures, postoperative complications, stoma settings, length of hospital stay, and prognosis was collected for each patient. RESULTS The median age of this female-only cohort was 60 years. Emergency surgery was performed in 8(11.0%)patients. Ovarian cancer was diagnosed in 56(76.7%)patients, and among these patients, the clinical disease Stage was Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ, and Ⅳ in 4, 4, 20, and 11 patients, respectively. Moreover, 17 patients had recurrent ovarian cancer. Intestinal resection with anastomosis was performed in 25(34.2%)patients. Stoma formation was performed in 22 (30.1%)patients, however no patient underwent stoma closure surgery in the current study. The median operative time was 252 minutes, and the median blood loss was 1,190 mL. Regarding postoperative complications, ileus, pelvic abscess, and anastomotic leakage developed in 6(8.2%), 4(5.5%), and 2(2.7%)patients, respectively. The postoperative median survival time in patients with ovarian cancer was 1,399 days. CONCLUSION These results suggest that tumor debulking, including intestinal tract resection, may contribute to the prolonged prognosis of gynecological tumors, although stoma closure is difficult to perform.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to investigate the incidence and distribution of regional lymph node metastasis according to tumor location, and to clarify whether tumor location could determine the extent of regional lymphadenectomy in patients with pathological T2 (pT2) gallbladder carcinoma. METHODS In total, 81 patients with pT2 gallbladder carcinoma (25 with pT2a tumors and 56 with pT2b tumors) who underwent radical resection were enrolled. Tumor location was determined histologically in each gallbladder specimen. RESULTS Survival after resection was significantly worse in patients with pT2b tumors than those with pT2a tumors (5-year survival, 72% vs. 96%; p = 0.027). Tumor location was an independent prognostic factor on multivariate analysis (hazard ratio, 14.162; p = 0.018). The incidence of regional lymph node metastasis was significantly higher in patients with pT2b tumors than in those with pT2a tumors (46% vs. 20%; p = 0.028). However, the number of positive nodes was similar between the two groups (median, 2 vs. 2; p = 0.910). For node-positive patients with pT2b tumors, metastasis was found in every regional node group (12%-63%), whereas even for node-positive patients with pT2a tumors, metastasis was observed in regional node groups outside the hepatoduodenal ligament. CONCLUSIONS Tumor location in patients with pT2 gallbladder carcinoma can predict the presence or absence of regional lymph node metastasis but not the number and anatomical distribution of positive regional lymph nodes. The extent of regional lymphadenectomy should not be changed even in patients with pT2a tumors, provided that they are fit enough for surgery.

Abstract
A 78-year-old woman with jaundice was referred to our hospital. On admission, serological testing for viral hepatitis was negative and serum levels of AFP and PIVKA-Ⅱ were elevated(925 ng/mL and 6,820 mAU/mL, respectively). Computed tomography revealed a main tumor measuring 3 cm in size at segment 1 of the liver and bile duct tumor thrombus extending to the right hepatic duct. A diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma with a bile duct tumor thrombus was made. After endoscopic biliary drainage for obstructive jaundice and transarterial chemoembolization for the lesions, she underwent left hepatectomy, resection of the caudate lobe, extrahepatic bile duct resection, and cholecystectomy. The hepatic side of the extrahepatic bile duct was transected at the confluence of the right anterior and posterior ducts because invasion of the tumor thrombus to the right hepatic duct was suspected on cholangioscopy. Histological examination revealed the tumor to be a moderately differentiated hepatocellular carcinoma with bile duct tumor thrombus. Surgical margins were negative, and vascular invasion was not found. She remains alive and well with no evidence of disease 64 months after hepatectomy.

Abstract
An 82-year-old man with a diagnosis ofintraductal papillary mucinous carcinoma(IPMC)underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy followed by adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1. Six months after surgery, he had upper abdominal pain, and CT demonstrated a recurrent intraabdominal tumor located at the surgical incision scar. It was diagnosed as a solitary peritoneal recurrence, and palliative radiation therapy at a dose of 30 Gy was performed for the relief of abdominal pain after administration ofoxycodone. He was free ofpain without pharmacological therapy and received subsequent chemotherapy with nabpaclitaxel plus gemcitabine(GnP). He remains free ofpain and alive without progression ofthe disease 24 months after recurrence. Hypofractionated-accelerated radiotherapy is feasible and results in pain relief for local recurrence of IPMC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cytomegalovirus (CMV) could cause rejection in immunocompromised patients during early post-renal transplant stage. The American Transplant Society guidelines recommend prophylactic therapy with ganciclovir (GCV) for 3 to 6 months to prevent CMV infections in adult renal transplant patients. However, there is no recommended CMV treatment regimen for pediatric patients. MAIN FINDINGS We performed deceased donor kidney transplant from an anti-CMV antibody-positive donor to an anti-CMV antibody-negative 15-year-old female recipient with end-stage renal disease caused by bilateral renal hypoplasia. One month after transplant, increase in positive cells in the CMV antigenemia assay indicated a primary CMV infection in the patient, who immediately received GCV. She was switched to foscarnet after 4 months of anti-CMV therapy because of clinical GCV resistance. CMV was isolated from the peripheral blood mononuclear cells but neutralizing antibody was not detected. Isolated CMV was susceptible to GCV and foscarnet, although it carried the UL97 D605E mutation, assumed to be associated with GCV resistance. CONCLUSIONS The primary CMV infection presented a phenotypic clinical drug resistance, but all recovered CMV isolates were drug-susceptible even if isolated after prolonged anti-CMV therapy, indicating that immune status was more important for recovery from primary CMV infection than anti-CMV therapy.

Abstract
A 56-year-old woman was referred to our hospital with complaints of appetite loss and abdominal distension. Enhanced abdominal computed tomography revealed a giant retroperitoneal tumor. We performed en bloc tumor resection. The histological diagnosis was of a dedifferentiated liposarcoma. One year after the initial surgery, 2 tumors were detected around the pancreas using computed tomography. We made a diagnosis of recurrent retroperitoneal liposarcoma and attempted surgical removal of the tumors. However, 1 of the tumors firmly adhered to the pancreas and duodenum; thus, we performed subtotal stomach-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy to remove the tumors. The histological diagnosis was the same as that obtained during the initial surgery: a dedifferentiated liposarcoma. The patient remains alive and well with no evidence of disease 2 years after the initial surgery.

Abstract
A 59-year-old woman with pancreatic cancer underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy. The tumor was histologically diagnosed as a well-differentiated tubular adenocarcinoma with a small amount of mucinous component. After resection, the patient underwent hepatic perfusion therapy using 5-FU and gemcitabine chemotherapy for 1 year. 7 years after the initial surgery, CT and PET-CT revealed an isolated enlarged lymph node in the left neck. As the patient had no other metastasis, lymphadenectomy was performed. A diagnosis of lymph node metastasis originating from pancreatic cancer was confirmed on the basis of histological and immunohistopathological assessments. After the second resection, chemotherapy with S-1 was administered for 1 year. The patient has been alive without tumor relapse for 11 years. In patients with late recurrence after pancreatectomy, aggressive isolated lymph node resection and maintained chemotherapy may contribute to the improvement in prognosis.

Abstract
Peritoneal metastasis is relatively rare in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC). No consensus has been reached regarding the treatment of this type of metastasis. Herein, we report 3 patients who underwent resection of peritoneal metastasis due to HCC. Case 1: A 48-year-old man underwent hepatectomy twice and radiofrequency ablation(RFA)once for HCC. Eight years after the initial resection, he underwent resection of peritoneal metastasis in the pelvic floor. He is alive with disease 17 months after the last operation. Case 2: A 71-year-old man with a history of percutaneous ablation therapy for HCC 3 times underwent hepatectomy for recurrent HCC. During the laparotomy, a peritoneal metastatic tumor was found near the live tumor, and simultaneous resection of both the tumors was performed. The patient died of recurrent disease 20 months after the last resection. Case 3: A 58-year-old man underwent hepatectomy for HCC and RFA for its recurrence. Peritoneal metastasis that invaded the duodenum was detected 8 years after the hepatectomy. Although the metastatic tumor was resected, he died of the carcinoma 2 months after the resection. We concluded that resection of peritoneal metastasis provides a survival benefit for selected patients with HCC.
