Abstract
BACKGROUND Advanced hepatobiliary-pancreatic cancer often invades critical blood vessels, including the portal vein (PV) and hepatic artery. Resection with tumor-free resection margins is crucial to achieving a favorable prognosis in these patients. Herein, we present our cases and surgical techniques for PV wedge resection with patch venoplasty using autologous vein grafts during surgery for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (PhCC). CASE PRESENTATION Case 1: 73-year-old female patient with PDAC; underwent subtotal stomach-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy, with superior mesenteric vein wedge resection and venoplasty with the right gonadal vein. Case 2: 67-year-old male patient with PDAC; underwent distal pancreatectomy and celiac axis resection, with PV wedge resection and venoplasty with the middle colic vein. Case 3: 51-year-old female patient with type IV PhCC; underwent left hepatectomy with caudate lobectomy and bile duct resection, with hilar PV wedge resection and venoplasty with the inferior mesenteric vein (IMV). Case 4: 69-year-old male patient with type IIIA PhCC; underwent right hepatopancreatoduodenectomy, with hilar PV resection and patch venoplasty with the IMV. All patients survived for over 12 months after the surgery, without local recurrence. CONCLUSIONS PV wedge resection and patch venoplasty is a useful technique for obtaining tumor-free margins in surgeries for hepatobiliary-pancreatic cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As the number of patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) increases, the incidence of IBD-related colorectal cancer (CRC) is also on the rise. Crohn's disease (CD)-related CRC has been reported to have a poorer prognosis than sporadic CRC, and the early detection of CD-related CRC is difficult. Japanese patients with CD are reported to have a higher frequency of anorectal cancer than the Western population; however, methods for early diagnosis have not yet been established because of perianal pain during the examination. CASE PRESENTATION We report a case of CD-related anal fistula cancer that was detected early by surveillance examination under anesthesia (EUA). The patient was a 37-year-old man, diagnosed with CD at the age of 15 years and started medical treatment. However, due to poor disease control, the intestinal tract remained highly inflamed and the patient continued to have over 10 bowel movements per day. He was referred to our hospital for surgical treatment after a colonoscopy (CS), which revealed multiple active ulcers and stenoses. Since three perianal seton drainage tubes had been placed around his anus since the age of 33 years, we decided to perform an EUA to rule out cancer coexistence in the anorectal region. After a random biopsy of the rectum by CS under general anesthesia, we resected and curetted multiple perianal fistulas as much as possible and reinserted the seton drainage tubes. Pathological examination of the fistula tract revealed adenocarcinoma in one tract, indicating the coexistence of anal fistula cancer. Based on the diagnosis of multiple intestinal stenoses and anal fistula cancer due to CD, we performed hand-assisted laparoscopic total colectomy, rectal amputation, extensive perineal resection, and reconstruction using a left rectus abdominis flap. CONCLUSION In a long-term CD patient with anorectal lesions, we performed an EUA to diagnose the coexistence of anal fistula cancer at an early stage, and surgical resection was achieved. EUA is effective for the early detection and treatment of CD-related CRC and may contribute to an improved prognosis.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: The analysis of CTCs as liquid biopsies provides the possibility to avoid invasive tissue biopsies, with obvious implications in cancer diagnostics and treatments. We tested new methods for v-CTCs detection in patients (pts) with pancreatic cancer (PC), and investigated the clinical potential of v-CTCs in prognosis. We analyzed the PD-L1(L1) expression in primary PC tumors, metastatic lymph nodes (LN) and v-CTCs.
Pts and Methods: 7.5 ml of venous blood was collected from 39 PC pts, either upfront surgery (U group) or pre-treatment, consisted of Gem:800mg/m2; and S-1:80mg/m2 given concurrently with IMRT to 60Gy ((NACRT:N group). To detect v-CTCs, we employed a telomerase-specific replication-selective adenovirus expressing GFP. For U group, samples were obtained before/after resection. For N group, samples were obtained before/after NACRT and after resection. To distinguish between leucocyte and cells with either epithelial or mesenchymal origin, cells were stained by anti-CD45, anti-Cytokeratin and anti-Vimentin Abs. GFP-positive and CD45-negative cells were counted as v-CTCs. To assess L1 expression in PC tissues (PC tumors and LN) and on v-CTCs, L1 IHC kit (22C3, for tissues) and anti-human L1 mAb(MIH1, for CTCs) were employed.
Results: U group: 24 pts aged 53~85 years (male/female=12/12) were enrolled. 24 pts underwent curative resection. No v-CTCs were detected in 6 pts at both before and after resection, and 5 of 6 pts survived without recurrence. V-CTCs were identified in 18 of 24 pts, and 13 of 18 pts developed liver metastasis. Marked decrease of CTC counts were seen after resection in 10 of 18 pts, but 9 pts developed recurrences. N group: 15 PC pts aged 44~77 years (male/female=4/11) were enrolled. 15 pts underwent curative resection. No v-CTCs at 3 sampling points were detected in 5 pts, and 5 pts survived without recurrences. V-CTCs was identified in 10 of 15 pts, and 4 out of 10 pts developed disease recurrence. Marked increase in CTC counts was observed after NACRT in 5 of 6 CTC-positive pts before NACRT, and 3 of 5 pts developed liver metastasis and died. NACRT may induce tumor cell dissemination into the blood circulation for CTC-positive pts. PD-L1 expression: L1 expression were assessed for 21 pts (U group:18, N group: 3). For PC tumors, L1 molecules were expressed in 12 pts and expression level of these pts were all low (57%, ≥50% [high]=0 pts, 1-49% [low]=12 pts {10%=6, 20%=4, 40%=2}, <1% [negative]=9 pts). For metastatic LNs, metastatic LNs were observed in 14 pts and L1-positive expression in these LNs were detected in only 4 pts (28%, all low expression). On the contrary, the majority of detected v-CTCs clearly expressed L1 molecule (92 CTCs out of 103 detected CTCs were L1-positive=89 %).
Conclusions: Viable CTC detection appears as a good prognostic marker. Immunotherapy with anti-PD-1/PD-L1 Abs may target v-CTCs, resulted in improvement of poor prognosis.

Abstract
In cases of pancreatic cancer with anatomical variations of the hepatic artery, it is important to evaluate the hemodynamics of each case for surgical indication. We report the case of a 68-year-old man with locally advanced pancreatic cancer and an aberrant right hepatic artery who underwent distal pancreatectomy with celiac axis resection(DP-CAR). He was admitted to our institute due to abdominal discomfort. A CT scan showed pancreatic cancer invading the common hepatic artery. He underwent chemoradiotherapy with a diagnosis of locally advanced pancreatic cancer. After the tumor downstaging, we performed DP-CAR, which included a gastroduodenal artery and a proper hepatic artery resection. Even though delayed gastric emptying was observed after the operation, he was discharged on postoperative day 36.

Abstract
FOLFIRI plus ramucirumab(RAM)therapy has been reported to be effective and safe in the RAISE trial as second-line treatment for unresectable colorectal cancer. It is hypothesized that RAM may be effective in patients with PD treated with FOLFIRI plus bevacizumab(Bev)due to different mechanism of action from that of Bev, which is also an angiogenesis inhibitor. From January 2017 to December 2021, we conducted a retrospective study of 6 patients who had PD with 5-FU, oxaliplatin, irinotecan, or Bev as first or second-line treatment at our institution and who received FOLFIRI plus RAM in later line treatment. The 6 cases consisted of 3 patients in the third-line treatment, 1 patient in the fourth-line treatment, and 2 patients in the sixth-line treatment. The anti-tumor effect was PD in all cases in the third-line and fourth-line treatment, but the 2 patients of sixth-line treatment were controlled diseases.

Abstract
BackgroundThe pathogenesis of neuropsychiatric systemic lupus erythematosus (NPSLE) is multifactorial and involves diverse cytokines, autoantibodies and immune complexes inducing blood-brain barrier (BBB) dysfunction, neuroendocrine-immune imbalance, vascular occlusion, tissue, and neuronal damage. Several pro-inflammatory cytokines have been implicated in the pathogenesis of NPSLE [1]. Previously we have shown that the titer of anti-suprabasin (SBSN) antibodies in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of NPSLE patients was significantly higher than in SLE, MS and NPH groups [2]. However, distinguishing NPSLE from other neuropsychiatric conditions with different etiologies is challenging.ObjectivesThis study determined the most critical serum biomarkers for the development of NPSLE as they may have clinical utility prior to the onset of neuropsychiatric symptoms.MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed 35 NPSLE patients, 34 SLE patients, 20 viral meningitis (VM) patients, and 16 relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. We measured anti-SBSN antibodies concentrations in serum by using Luciferase immunoprecipitation system (LIPS) assay. The serum concentrations of cytokines/chemokines were measured by using multiplex bead-based assay. All the clinical information and laboratory tests were collected at the time of admission.ResultsThe Bayesian posterior mean and 95% HPDI of the cut-off of AI and its PPV and 1-NPV values were 5.26 (3.68;7.17), 0.87, (0.72; 1.0) and 0.44, (0.36; 0.5), respectively (Figure 1).Figure 1.Summary of the posterior distribution of the cutoff of AI and its predictive value (1-NPV and PPV). The 95% HPDI is shown as the thick black horizontal line with the boundaries written above the lineAmong analyzed biomarkers, VEGF had the highest sparsity-oriented important learning (SOIL) importance, followed by AI, sCD40L, IL-10, GRO, MDC, IL-8, IL-9, TNFα, MIP-1α (Figure 2).Figure 2.Top 10 biomarkers having highest SOIL importance in prediction of NPSLE.Abbreviations• AI: anti-SBSN antibody index• PPV: positive predictive• NPV: negative predictive value• SOIL: sparsity-oriented important learning• IL: interleukin•MIP: macrophage inflammatory protein• sCD40L: soluble CD40 ligand• MDC: macrophage-derived chemokine• VEGF: vascular endothelial growth factor• MDC: macrophage-derived chemokine• TNF: Tumor necrosis factorConclusionOur data demonstrated the ranking of serum biomarkers for the prediction of NPSLE.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite having once been extensively used for cosmetics or pain reduction, the use of single-incision laparoscopic cholecystectomy (SILC) has declined in recent years due to technical difficulties and a reported increase in complications. Since the introduction of SILC in 2009, our hospital has been actively involved with this technique. Our experience suggests that SILC is not a difficult procedure and can be safe and useful, with particularly excellent cosmetic outcomes. This study retrospectively details the outcomes of SILC at our hospital. METHOD Data on 1469 cases of SILC performed on a waitlist basis at Osaka Police Hospital from May 2009 to December 2020 were collected and retrospectively analysed. RESULTS The median operative time and blood loss were 96 min and 0 mL, respectively. A total of 46 patients (3.1%) required conversion surgery, including 36 needing additional ports and 10 requiring laparotomy. Intraoperative complications included common bile duct injury in 1 patient (0.07%) and right hepatic artery injury in 1 patient (0.07%), with no other organ injury. Postoperative Clavien-Dindo 3 or higher complications were observed in 18 patients (1.2%). Incisional hernias occurred in 15 patients (1.0%). The median postoperative hospital stay was 3 days. CONCLUSION This study showed that SILC can be performed safely without any increase in complications, as reported previously. Granted that it is performed safely, SILC may be a useful technique due to its superior cosmetic outcomes or pain reduction.

Abstract
A 67-year-old man with a history of appendectomy 40 years ago underwent single-incision laparoscopic surgery for total extraperitoneal inguinal hernia repair. Postoperatively, the pararectal incisional scar obtained from the appendectomy was infected; thus, antibiotic therapy and drainage were performed. However, the infection persisted. After 5 postoperative months, the mesh was laparoscopically removed at a sufficient distance from the infected site. No enterocutaneous fistula was observed. After 1 year and 10 months, no recurrence of hernia or infection was observed. Thus, laparoscopic mesh removal is feasible. Infection of a 40-year-old incision rarely results in mesh infection. Therefore, in pararectal incision, the extent of mesh coverage should be considered; if the overlap is large, changing the technique by not covering the incision may be necessary.

It has been recently reported that the liver stiffness, which reflects increased central venous pressure, measured by transient elastography increases along with decompensated heart failure (HF) developing and decreases with clinical improvement. A simple index for the assessment of liver stiffness and/or impairment of liver reserve may be useful in patients with HF. We calculated each patient´s FIB4 index(F4I) using the following formula: (age (years)× aspartate aminotransferase (IU/L)/platelet count (109/L)× square root of alanine aminotransferase (IU/L)). Patients with an F4I≥2.67 were classified into the high F4I group and these patients were strongly suspected to have non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). NAFLD is also said to be a form of metabolic syndrome expressed in the liver. And lately NAFLD is associated with increased risk of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and stroke and cardiovascular surrogate markers. But Little is known about F4I with the influence of AMI prognosis. This study included 167 AMI patients who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention within 24h of onset. Consecutive patients were divided into two groups based on their F4I at discharge: First group (2.67 ≤F4I, n = 27), second group (F4I <2.67, n = 140) . And we assessed the association between F4I and CV events including cardiac death, recurrent AMI, recurrent PCI (TLR) and re-hospitalization of heart failure during 13 months. Result: High F4I (2.67≤ F4I ,19% VS F4I <2.67, 6%: P = 0.045) related to the re-hospitalization of heart failure. Univariate odds ratio was 3.45. F4I is significantly related to the re-hospitalization of heart failure. Conclusion: A simple index F4I is significantly related to the prognosis of adverse cardiac events after AMI patients.

Abstract
In cases where carcinomatous meningitis leads to hydrocephalus and increases intracranial pressure, patients present with exacerbated pain and several neurological symptoms. It is reported that multidisciplinary therapy, including radiation therapy, drug therapy, and surgery, is performed for patients with carcinomatous meningitis; however, it is rarely successful. Ventriculoperitoneal shunting(V-P shunt)is a surgical intervention that might relieve the pain temporarily and improve the quality of life. VPS should be taken into consideration in line with patients' and their families' intentions since the overall survival is fairly short.

Abstract
With the advancement of endoscopic resection(ER)of colorectal cancer, surgical resection after ER has been increasing. This study evaluated the effects of initial ER on short- and long-term outcomes in T1b colorectal cancer. This retrospective cohort study enrolled patients with pathological T1b colorectal cancer who underwent colorectal surgical resection between 2008 and 2018. A total of 239 eligible patients were divided into 2 groups: patients initially treated using surgical resection with lymph node dissection(LND)(surgery alone, n=142)and patients treated using initial ER and additional surgical resection with LND(surgery after ER, n=97). No significant differences were observed in short-term outcomes(ie, operative time, blood loss, or postoperative complications)or the long-term outcomes(ie, recurrence rate, overall survival rate, or recurrence free survival rate)between groups.

Abstract
Some patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) experienced sudden death because of sudden symptom deterioration. Thus, an alarm system that could detect early signs of COVID-19 exacerbation beforehand, to prevent serious illness or death of patients while receiving outpatient treatment at home or in hotels is necessary. Here, we tested whether estimated oxygen variations (EOV), a relative physiological scale that represents users' blood oxygen saturation level during sleep measured by Fitbit, predicted COVID-19 symptom exacerbation. Study period was from August to November 2020. We enrolled 23 COVID-19 patients diagnosed by SARS-CoV-2 polymerase chain reaction-positive (mean age ± standard deviation, 50.9±20 years; 70% female), let each patient wore the Fitbit for 30 days; COVID-19 symptoms were exacerbated in 6 (26%). High EOV signal (a patient's oxygen level exhibits significant dip and recovery within the index period) had 80% sensitivity before symptom exacerbations, whereas resting heart rate signal only had 50% sensitivity. Coincidental obstructive sleep apnea syndrome confirmed by polysomnography was detected in a patient by consistently high EOV signals. This pilot study successfully detected early COVID-19 symptoms exacerbation by measuring EOV and may help to identify early signs of COVID-19 exacerbation.

Abstract
Simple Summary The screening methods and therapeutic strategies for gastrointestinal cancer (GIC) have improved, but mortality in GIC patients remains high. Early detection and precise evaluation of GIC are required to further improve treatment outcomes in GIC patients. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), which do not encode proteins, have attracted attention as biomarkers of various diseases. Since the first report revealing the strong correlation between miRNAs and cancer in 2002, numerous studies have illustrated the changes in the expression and the biological and oncological effects of miRNAs in GIC. Furthermore, miRNAs circulating in the blood are reported to be associated with GIC status. These miRNAs are thought to be useful as noninvasive biomarkers because of their stability in blood. Herein, we discuss the potential of miRNAs as noninvasive biomarkers for each type of GIC on the basis of previous reports and describe perspectives for their future application. Abstract Gastrointestinal cancer (GIC) is a common disease and is considered to be the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide; thus, new diagnostic and therapeutic strategies for GIC are urgently required. Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs) are functional RNAs that are transcribed from the genome but do not encode proteins. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short ncRNAs that are reported to function as both oncogenes and tumor suppressors. Moreover, several miRNA-based drugs are currently proceeding to clinical trials for various diseases, including cancer. In recent years, the stability of circulating miRNAs in blood has been demonstrated. This is of interest because these miRNAs could be potential noninvasive biomarkers of cancer. In this review, we focus on circulating miRNAs associated with GIC and discuss their potential as novel biomarkers.

Abstract
Abstract
[Introduction] CTCs as liquid biopsy are an emerging minimally invasive tool for cancer diagnosis, surveillance, and treatment. We tested novel methods for viable CTCs (v-CTC) isolation in the patients (pts) with pancreatic cancer (PC), and investigated the clinical potential of v-CTCs in prognosis. Furthermore, we analyzed the PD-L1(L1) expression in primary PC tumors, metastatic lymph nodes (LN) and v-CTCs.
[Pts and Methods] 7.5 ml of venous blood was collected prospectively from 39 PC pts, either upfront surgery (Up group) or pre-treatment, consisted of Gem:800 mg/m2; and S-1:80 mg/m2 given concurrently with IMRT to 60 Gy (NACRT:N group). To detect v-CTCs, we employed a telomerase-specific replication-selective adenovirous expressing GFP. For Up group, samples were obtained before/after resection. For N group, samples were obtained before/after NACRT and after resection. To distinguish between leucocyte and cells with either epithelial or mesenchymal origin, cells were stained by anti-CD45, anti-Cytokeratin and anti-Vimentin Abs. GFP-positive and CD45-negative cells were counted as v-CTC. To assess L1 expression in PC tissues (PC tumors and LN) and v-CTCs, L1 IHC kit (22C3, for tissues) and anti-human L1 mAb (MIH1,for CTCs) were employed.
[Results] Up group: 24 pts aged 53~85 years (male/female=12/12) were enrolled. 24 pts underwent curative resection. No v-CTCs were detected in 6 pts at both before and after resection, and 5 of 6 pts survived without recurrence. V-CTCs were identified in 18 of 24 pts, and 13 of 18 pts developed liver metastasis. Marked decrease of CTC counts were seen after resection in 10 of 18 pts, but 9 pts developed recurrence. N group: 15 PC pts aged 44~77 years (male/female=4/11) were enrolled. 15 pts underwent curative resection. No v-CTCs were detected in 5 pts, and all 5 pts survived without recurrence. V-CTCs was identified in 10 of 15 pts, and only 3 out of 10 pts developed disease recurrence. Marked increase in CTC counts was observed after NACRT in 5 of 6 CTC-positive pts before NACRT, and 3 of 5 pts developed liver metastasis and died. RT may induce tumor cell dissemination into the blood circulation for CTC-positive pts. PD-L1 expression: L1 expression were assessed for 21 pts (Up group:18, N group: 3). For PC tumors, L1 molecules were expressed in 12 pts and expression level of these pts were all low (57%, ≥50% [high]=0 pts, 1-49% [low]=12 pts {10%=6, 20%=4, 40%=2}, <1% [negative]=9 pts). For metastatic LNs, metastatic LNs were observed in 14 pts and L1-positive expression in these LNs were detected in only 4 pts (28%, all low expression). On the contrary, the majority of detected v-CTCs clearly expressed L1 molecule (92 CTCs out of 103 detected CTCs were L1-positive=89 %).
[Conclusions] Viable CTC detection appears as a promising prognostic marker. Immunotherapy with anti-PD-1/PD-L1 Abs may effectively target v-CTCs to evade recurrence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM The rate of lymph node metastasis (LNM) of colorectal carcinoma (CRC) with a submucosal (SM) invasion depth of 1000 µm or more can reach 12.5%, which is the most common reason for additional resection in daily practice. Other studies have reported that the rate of LNM is less than 2%, regardless of the depth of invasion, if the lesions show good histology, lymphovascular infiltration is negative, and tumor budding is limited. The purpose of this study was to investigate new risk factors for LNM in T1b colorectal cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS The 239 patients who were diagnosed with pathological T1b CRC after colorectal surgical resection at the Osaka Police Hospital in Japan between January 2008 and December 2018 were retrospectively reviewed in this study. RESULTS The LNM rate was 11.3% (27/239). The variables identified as being significant factors using multivariate analysis were: i) lymphatic invasion (Ly)-positive [odds ratio (OR)=5.97; 95% confidence interval (CI)=2.27-15.74], ii) female gender (OR=3.49; 95%CI=1.38-8.85), and iii) left-sided colorectal involvement (OR=4.98; 95%CI=1.22-20.39). If none of these risk factors were present with T1b, the LNM rate was 0% (0/28). CONCLUSIONS Ly-positive, female gender, and left-sided colorectal involvement could be risk factors for LNM in T1b CRC.

Abstract
PURPOSE This retrospective study was conducted to compare the long-term outcomes of single-incision totally extraperitoneal (S-TEP) inguinal hernia repair and conventional multiport totally extraperitoneal (M-TEP) inguinal hernia repair. METHODS The study population included 186 consecutive patients (S-TEP, n = 149; M-TEP, n = 37) who underwent elective surgery for inguinal hernia at Osaka Police Hospital between 2011 and 2013. RESULTS No significant between-group difference was found in patient or hernia characteristics or in perioperative outcomes, with the exception of age (S-TEP group vs. M-TEP group: median 69 [IQR 60-75] years vs. 64 [55-69] years, respectively; P = 0.019). Furthermore, no significant between-group difference was found in follow-up time (5.5 [3.0-5.8] vs. 5.4 [3.1-5.7] years, P = 0.839), recurrence rate (0.6 vs. 2.4%, P = 0.358), chronic pain (1.2 vs. 0%, P = 1.000), feeling the mesh (2.3 vs. 7.1%, P = 0.142), or movement limitation (0.6 vs. 0%, P = 1.000). All chronic symptoms were "mild but not bothersome." A metachronous contralateral inguinal hernia developed in 8.1% of patients. CONCLUSION The long-term outcomes of S-TEP repair were comparable to those of M-TEP, with rates of recurrence, chronic pain, feeling the mesh, and movement limitation falling within acceptable limits.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to clarify usefulness of the modified Frailty Index 11 (mFI-11) for assessing risk of postoperative complications (POCs) and effectiveness of perioperative management team (POMT) intervention for improving postoperative status of frail aged patients requiring colorectal cancer (CRC) surgery. METHODS We compared, retrospectively, surgical outcomes among 151 consecutive CRC surgery patients aged ≥80 years. Patients were grouped by mFI-11 scores and by POMT intervention (vs. no POMT intervention). RESULTS POCs were more prevalent, postoperative stays were longer, and discharge status was poorer among high-risk (mFI-11 ≥ 3/11) patients without POMT intervention than among low-risk (mFI-11 ≤ 2/11) patients (p = 0.04, p = 0.02, p < 0.01). Multiple POCs occurred less frequently and performance of activities of daily living was better for high-risk patients with (vs. those without) POMT intervention (p = 0.04, p = 0.03). CONCLUSION POMT intervention appears beneficial for frail aged patients scheduled for CRC surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Long-term outcomes of single-incision laparoscopic colectomy (SILC) for colon cancer (CC), as practiced in real-world settings, especially in relation to disease stage, have not been established. We examined, retrospectively, both short- and long-term outcomes of SILC versus those of multiport laparoscopic colectomy (MPLC) performed for CC in a propensity-score-matched cohort. METHODS The study involved 263 patient pairs matched 1:1 from among 691 patients who, between January 2008 and May 2014, underwent either SILC or MPLC for a primary solitary CC at our hospital. Short-term and long-term operative outcomes were compared between the two groups. RESULTS Operation time was the only surgical outcome that varied significantly between the two groups (p = 0.0004). Overall 5-year cancer-specific survival (CSS) in the SILC group was 93.7 (95% CI 89.6-96.2)%, and CSS per pathological stage (I, II and III) was 98.5 (90.0-99.8)%, 96.0 (88.2-98.7)%, and 88.3 (79.6-93.6)%, respectively, whereas overall 5-year CSS in the MPLC group was 93.3 (89.4-95.9)%, and CSS per pathological stage was 100%, 95.4 (88.3-98.3)%, and 84.1 (74.1-90.8)% (p = 0.5278, 0.2679, 0.7666, and 0.9073), respectively. Overall 3-year disease-free survival (DFS) in the SILC group was 94.0 (90.2-96.4)%, and 3-year DFS per pathological stage was 98.6 (90.4-99.8)%, 90.1 (81.4-95.0)%, and 79.0 (69.4-86.2)%, respectively, whereas overall 3-year DFS in the MPLC group was 93.2 (89.4-95.7)%, and 3-year DFS per pathological disease stage was 100%, 94.5 (87.4-97.7)% and 75.5 (64.7-83.8)% (p = 0.2829, 0.7401, 0.4335 and 0.8518), respectively. Thus, oncological outcomes did not differ significantly between groups. Incisional hernia occurred in 21 (8.0%) SILC group patients and 17 (6.5%) MPLC group patients, without a significant between-group difference (p = 0.6139). CONCLUSION Our data indicate that perioperative and oncological outcomes of SILC performed for CC are comparable to those of MPLC performed for CC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Polymyositis/dermatomyositis (PM/DM) is an autoimmune disease that is sometimes complicated with rapidly progressive interstitial lung disease (RPILD). However, serum and lung biomarkers that can predict RPILD development remain unclear. OBJECTIVES To determine potential serum and lung biomarkers that can predict RPILD development in patients with PM/DM-ILD. METHODS In total, 49 patients with PM/DM-ILD were enrolled. We measured the serum levels of 41 cytokines/chemokines, ferritin and anti-MDA5 antibody, compared them between the RPILD (n = 23) and non-RPILD (n = 26) groups, and ranked them by their importance through random forest analysis. To distinguish the two groups, we determined biomarker combinations by logistic regression analysis. We also measured the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) levels of 41 cytokines/chemokines. Using immunohistochemistry, we examined IL-15 expression in lung tissues. The IL-15 production was also investigated using A549 and BEAS-2B cells. RESULTS The RPILD group had significantly higher IL-15, IL-1RA, IL-6, CXCL10, VCAM-1, anti-MDA5 antibody and ferritin serum levels than the non-RPILD group, but it had a significantly low CCL22 level. Meanwhile, anti-MDA5 antibody, IL-15, CXCL8, CCL22, IL-1RA and ferritin were the best combination to distinguish the two groups. IL-15 and CCL22 were also predictive marker for RPILD development in anti-MDA5 antibody-positive patients. Additionally, the RPILD group had significantly high IL-15 levels in BALF. The lung tissues expressed IL-15, which increased after cytokine stimulation in the A549 cells. CONCLUSION This study identified a combination of biomarkers predicting PM/DM-RPILD progression, and IL-15 is an important cytokine for predicting RPILD development and reflecting ILD severity.

Abstract
A phase-Ⅱtrial of TAS-102 plus bevacizumab(Bev)combination therapy showed a progression-free survival(PFS)of 3.7-4.6 months. Here, we report 12 cases of unresectable advanced recurrent colorectal cancer treated with TAS-102 plus Bev therapy at our hospital between June 2017 and February 2020. The median PFS was 6 months(2-12). Adverse events greater than Grade 3 were neutropenia(33.3%), febrile neutropenia(8.3%), thrombocytopenia(8.3%), and vomiting (8.3%). The frequency of non-hematotoxicity was low. In conclusion, the TAS-102 plus Bev therapy may be a useful option for the late-line treatment of unresectable advanced recurrent colorectal cancer.

Abstract
Nodular lymphocyte-predominant Hodgkin lymphoma(NLPHL)is a subtype of Hodgkin lymphoma. It is uncommon in Japan, and only a few cases of NLPHL originating from the mesentery have been reported. Most patients with NLPHL present in the early stage, but some patients have malignancy at initial presentation. We should perform staging laparotomy for the diagnosis and treatment of cases in which a lymph node biopsy is difficult.

Abstract
Robot-assisted laparoscopic surgery(RALS)for rectal cancer has been covered by National Health Insurance in Japan since April 2018. We launched RALS in our hospital in October 2019 and now report the short-term results(up to January 2020). Altogether, 15 consecutive patients(12 men, 3 women: median age 70 years)with rectal cancer underwent RALS during that period. For the first 2 cases, we performed RALS under the instruction of an experienced proctor from another institution. Among the 15 patients, 6 underwent high anterior resection and 9 low anterior resection. Median operating time was 358 min, median intraoperative blood loss was 0 mL, and there were no apparent intraoperative complications. Median postoperative length of hospital stay was 13 days, and only 1 patient developed a high-grade complication(Clavien-Dindo Grade Ⅲb)postoperatively. Hence, RALS for rectal cancer was launched successfully in our institution.

Abstract
An 83-year-old woman was given a diagnosis of gastric cancer and received distal gastrectomy 9 years ago. Three years later, CT revealed a tumor measuring 13 mm in diameter in hepatic segment 7. She was followed for 5 years, and the size of the tumor did not change. Eight years later after gastrectomy, the tumor size slightly enlarged to 17 mm, and biopsy revealed adenocarcinoma. The patient underwent liver resection of segment 7. The pathological diagnosis was well differentiated intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma(ICC). No sign of recurrence has been found during a 1-year. This case, in which the patient was followed for 5 years before curative surgical treatment, is significant, because it demonstrates the slow-growing nature of ICC.

Abstract
Pancreatic cancer (PC) is one of the leading causes of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Although surgical resection is the only curable option, less than 20% of the patients diagnosed with localized disease are resectable. The prognosis of these patients after complete resection is extremely poor due to local and systemic recurrence. Peritoneal recurrence is a major recurrence pattern after surgery for PC. Peritoneal lavage cytology (CY) is used widely in the diagnosis and staging of gastric and pancreatic cancer to rule out patients with occult peritoneal metastasis. For gastric cancer, positive cytology (CY+), even in the absence of visible peritoneal metastasis, represents stage IV disease. However, the prognostic significance of CY+ in potentially resectable PC is controversial. We rise the question of whether CY+ status in PC has predictive value for survival and early peritoneal recurrence. Therefore, we conducted this study to evaluate use of a new genetically modified telomerase-specific replication-selective adenovirus, expressing GFP (TelomeScan F35) in rapid detection of viable peritoneal tumor cell (v-PTC) dissemination of PC. This human clinical trial sought to determine if the presence of virally-detected, rare v-PTC predict peritoneal recurrence and patient outcome. This study was approved by the IRB in Osaka Police Hospital and Rinku General Medical Center. Patients with resectable cytologically or histologically proven ductal adenocarcinoma of the pancreas were enrolled. Peritoneal lavage fluid was harvested just after a laparotomy in 53 patients with PC. Half of the fluid was examined by cytology with papanicolau staining and MOC-31 immunostaining and the remaining half was analyzed to detect v-PTC with TelomeScan F35. To distinguish between leucocyte and cells with epithelial origin, cells were stained with anti-CD45 Ab. To further distinguish cells with primary tumor origin, cells were labeled with anti-CEA, anti-CA19-9 and EpCAM Abs. GFP-positive and CD45-negative, and either CEA-, CA19-9 or EpCAM-positive cells were counted as v-PTC by automatic detection system using NIS Elements imaging software. Patients were followed after surgery to evaluate its clinical significance. Among 53 patients aged 53-87 years (30 males and 23 females), 6 were cytologically positive (CY+), other 12 were virally positive by TelomeScan F35 (v-PTC+). All 53 patients underwent a surgical resection (PD/DP/TP=32/14/7). 2 patients were double positive (CY+/v-PTC+), and peritoneal recurrence early occurred at 7 month after surgery despite adjuvant chemotherapy. 4 were CY+, but v-PTC-, and no peritoneal recurrence were observed (0%). On the other hand, other 10 were CY-, but v-PTC+, and 4 of these 10 patients occurred peritoneal recurrence (40%). Remaining 37 patients were double negative (CY-/v-PTC-), peritoneal recurrence were observed in only 4 patients. In conclusion, the TelomeScan F35-based v-PTC(+) status was associated with a significantly increased incidence of peritoneal recurrence in patients with resectable PC, resulting in impaired survival.

Abstract
Background:Familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) is an autoinflammatory disease that is caused by Mediterranean fever (MEFV) gene mutations. It is characterized by recurrent and self-limiting febrile attacks within a short period. Although the pathologic significance ofMEFVexon 2 or exon 3 common variants in patients with FMF is modest and these variants are usually associated with less severe clinical presentations of FMF (1, 2), their combined effects with pathogenic mutation in exon 10 remain to be evaluated.Objectives:To determine the combined effect of common variants on clinical manifestations and inflammasome activity, we compared the clinical and laboratory characteristics between the coexistence and non-coexistence ofMEFVexon 2 or exon 3 variants in patients with FMF that had a heterozygousMEFVexon 10 mutation.Methods:We excluded patients with FMF that had twoMEFVexon 10 mutations in one or more alleles and those withMEFVvariants in exons other than in exons 2, 3, or 10. Finally, we reviewed 131 Japanese patients with FMF that had a heterozygousMEFVexon 10 mutation, and they were divided into the groups with and withoutMEFVexon 2 or exon 3 variants of 34 and 97, respectively. All enrolled patients had only a heterozygous M694I mutation in exon 10 of theMEFVgene. We measured serum IL-18 levels at remission without febrile attacks in the groups with and withoutMEFVexon 2 or exon 3 variants of 9 and 31, respectively.Results:In the univariate analysis, the group with variants in exon 2 or exon 3 had significantly earlier onset (16.0 years v.s. 20.5 years, p = 0.04), a higher percentage of thoracic pain with febrile attacks (68% v.s. 44%, p = 0.02), a higher frequency of attack (1.0/month v.s. 0.5/month, p = 0.02), and a higher IL-18 level in the serum at remission (606.3 pg/ml v.s. 168.4 pg/ml, p = 0.04, Figure 1) compared to the group without these variants. Importantly, multivariate analyses showed that the coexistence ofMEFVexon 2 or exon 3 variants and an exon 10 mutation was independently and significantly associated with earlier onset of FMF (p = 0.049) and thoracic pain (p = 0.03).Figure 1.Conclusion:Our results suggest that the coexistence ofMEFVexon 2 or exon 3 variants and aMEFVexon 10 mutation has combined effects on inflammasome activation in the Japanese population.References:[1]Migita K, Uehara R, Nakamura Y, et al.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Small bowel obstruction (SBO) arises on various backgrounds, and the surgical procedure is often modified intraoperatively as needed. Single-incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS) is less invasive than conventional multiport laparoscopic surgery (MPS) and reported to be equally safe and efficient. We have been applying SILS to SBO requiring surgical treatment, and we conducted a retrospective study to clarify the role of SILS in the management of SBO. METHODS Thirty-four consecutive patients were identified for inclusion in the study through a review of hospital records of patients having undergone surgery for SBO between May 2013 and June 2018. Patients with tumor- or hernia-related SBO were excluded. We also identified, for comparison, a group of patients who had undergone open surgery for SBO during the preceeding 5-year period. The primary study endpoint was the SILS completion rate, and analyses were performed to identify risk factors for conversion to open surgery and perioperative complications. RESULTS The SILS completion rate was 70.6% (24/34 patients), with conversion open surgery required for the remaining 10 (29.4%) patients. Conversion was necessitated by limited working space in 5 (50%) patients, discovery of massive necrosis in 3 (30%), and non-detection of the responsible lesion in 2 (20%). Univariable analysis showed an American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status score (p = 0.020) and severe intra-abdominal adhesions (p = 0.007) to be risk factors for conversion. Conversion to open surgery (vs complete SILS) was significantly associated with increased operation time (p = 0.018), blood loss (p = 0.021), postoperative stay (p = 0.010), and postoperative complications (p = 0.004). Open surgery was significantly associated with increased postoperative stay (p = 0.026) and postoperative complications (p = 0.011). CONCLUSION SILS appears to be a reasonable surgical treatment option for selected patients with SBO.

Abstract
A 67-year-old woman presented with bloody stools to a local physician. Lower gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed a type 3 all-circumferential tumor at descending colon. She was diagnosed with descending colon cancer and referred to our hospital for surgery. Preoperative computed tomography(CT)revealed a horseshoe kidney. We performed single-incision laparoscopic colectomy for descending colon cancer(cT3cN0cM0, cStageⅡa)complicated by a horseshoe kidney. The surgery was performed safely without any additional injuries. In patients with horseshoe kidneys, abnormalities have been reported in the running of the blood vascular system and the renal pelvis and ureter systems. Thus, sufficient understanding of the anatomic abnormality by preoperative examinations, such as 3D-CT, is essential for performing surgery safely.

Abstract
The standard treatment for unresectable or recurrent gastrointestinal stromal tumor(GIST)is tyrosine kinase inhibitor(TKI). It is reported that resection of metastatic lesions after TKI administration prolongs progression free survival, but its influence on overall survival is not clarified. We experienced a case of GIST with peritoneal dissemination for which TKI administration and 2 local resections were effective. The patient was a man in his 70's. We started chemotherapy with imatinib for GIST with peritoneal dissemination. However, it was discontinued due to the occurrence of interstitial pneumonia. Dissemination was evaluated as radically resectable on the images. After the interstitial pneumonia was alleviated, surgery was performed. Although sunitinib was introduced at 2 months postoperatively, recurrent peritoneal dissemination was detected at 32 months postoperatively, and treatment was then changed to regorafenib. Regorafenib treatment reduced the tumor size; however, Grade 3 albuminuria was detected 16 months after treatment initiation and, thus, this treatment was discontinued. Subsequently, the tumor enlarged again. Because there was only 1 recurrent lesion, we performed radical resection. Postoperatively, a reduced dose of regorafenib was re-administered. At present, 9 months after the re-surgery, the patient is alive without recurrence.

Abstract
A 66-year-old woman admitted for nausea was found to have a type 2 tumor with stenosis at the fourth portion of the duodenum by upper gastrointestinal series and endoscopy, which was diagnosed as an adenocarcinoma by endoscopic biopsy. Abdominal computed tomography(CT)showed an irregular thick wall at the fourth portion of the duodenum but without metastasis or invasion to the adjacent vessels. We examined the lymph nodes around the pancreatic head intraoperatively and partially resected the duodenum and jejunum based on the diagnosis of negative swollen nodes. The definitive diagnosis was primary tubular adenocarcinoma of the fourth portion of the duodenum, T3, N0, M0, Stage ⅡA. Reports of primary cancer of the fourth portion of the duodenum are very rare, and we include a discussion of the current literature.

Abstract
Chemoradiation was performed at Osaka Police Hospital's department of respiratory medicine on a 70-year-old male with small cell lung carcinoma(cT4N3M0, cStage ⅢC). Subsequent to secondary chemotherapy for multiple bone metastases that had been observed, he received care to control the disease. He arrived at the hospital complaining of epigastric pain. He got CT-scan and was referred to our department because of a suspected hematoma around the right gastroepiploic artery. He was treated conservatively because circulatory dynamics were steady and there was no indication that anemia had progressed. However, when a test laparotomy was performed the day after the start of treatment because he presented with decreased blood pressure and progressive anemia, a massive hematoma was found around the right gastroepiploic artery. The hematoma was removed, and hemostasis was performed. Based on the pathological findings of the excised specimen, he was diagnosed with abdominal metastasis of small cell lung carcinoma. This is a report on our experience and a literature review on a case of mesenteric hematoma caused by abdominal metastasis of small cell lung carcinoma.

Abstract
A 75-year-old man presented with a fever. Computed tomography revealed a 10 cm solid tumor under the duodenum. A pre-operative diagnosis of liposarcoma was established using biopsy. Pancreaticoduodenectomy was performed, and the pathological examination led to the diagnosis of dedifferentiation type liposarcoma. Two years later, the liposarcoma recurred at the remnant pancreas. A total remnant pancreatectomy was performed. The pathological examination revealed dedifferentiated type liposarcoma and positive surgical margins. Therefore, radiotherapy of 59.4 Gy in 33 fractions was performed at the recurrence area. The patient has been recurrence-free from 1 year 6 months since the second operation.

Abstract
The objective of this study was to evaluate the influence of viscosity-enhancing agents on oral absorption of metoprolol (MPL) and bisoprolol (BPL). Although the viscosity values were similar for MPL and BPL in hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC, 1.2 % (w/w)) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA, 8.8 % (w/w)) solutions, the order of diffusion rate constants of the drugs in media were phosphate buffer solution (reference) > HPMC solution > PVA solution. In in vivo rat intestinal absorption experiments showed that the Cmax and AUC values of the drugs were lowest when they were administered into the rat jejunum in a PVA solution. In vitro binding studies showed that this may have been due to adsorption of the drugs to PVA molecules, resulting in decreased free fractions of the drugs. Our results indicated that intestinal absorption of the drugs in PVA solution was influenced both by decreased diffusion of the drugs and by interaction with PVA. Since various viscosity-enhancing agents are widely used as pharmaceutical and food additives, these findings may be of significance for understanding therapeutic efficacy and safety of oral drug products.

Abstract
Background Rectal metastasis from pulmonary adenocarcinoma is rare, and it has been regarded as an end-stage phenomenon. Recently, however, advances in lung cancer treatment have improved the chance of long-term survival of patients with unresectable distant metastases. We describe the occurrence and management of metastatic spread of a pulmonary carcinoma to the rectum. Case presentation The patient was a 79-year-old woman who had undergone thoracoscopic left lobectomy for pulmonary adenocarcinoma and then, over the next 11 years, various drugs (carboplatin + paclitaxel (as adjuvant therapy), gefitinib, gemcitabine + vinorelbine, S1 (an oral 5-fluorouracil-based drug), carboplatin + pemetrexed + bevacizumab, erlotinib, nivolumab, afatinib, and carboplatin+ S1) were administered, especially for hilar and mediastinal lymph node recurrences. During the eleventh postoperative year, left and right iliac bone metastases were detected, and radiation therapy was undertaken for local control of these lesions. When 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography was performed for evaluation of the disease, tracer accumulation in the upper rectum was seen. Colonoscopic examination of the rectum revealed an intramural mass with central ulceration, and the mass was diagnosed histologically as an adenocarcinoma. The bone metastases appeared to be controlled, and the patient’s performance status was good, but she had suffered constipation for about a year and desired treatment. Thus, laparoscopic low anterior resection was performed. Histopathologic analysis revealed a moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma existing mainly between the submucosa and serosa, and immunohistochemical analysis showed the tumor to be positive for cytokeratin (CK) 7, negative for CK20, positive for thyroid transcription factor-1, and negative for special AT-rich sequence-binding protein 2 and caudal type homeobox 2, confirming the diagnosis of rectal metastasis from the primary pulmonary adenocarcinoma. The patient recovered well without any change in her functional status. Systemic chemotherapy was resumed, and she continues to do well, now 6 months after surgery. Conclusions Surgery may be a good option for the management of an isolated rectal metastasis from pulmonary cancer in patients whose functional status is good.

Abstract
1. Oleuropein (Ole) is a major phenolic compound in Olea europaea, with anti-oxidative, anti-obesity, and anti-inflammatory properties. To explore the effect of Ole on the physiology and metabolism of poultry, this study, evaluated the effects of feeding low-dose Ole on the growth performance, metabolic hormonal status, muscle oxidative status in growing broiler chickens.2. Thirty-two 8-day-old chickens were assigned to four different treatments, and fed either 0 (control), 0.1, 0.5, or 2.5 ppm Ole-supplemented diets for 2 weeks.3. There were no differences in the body weight gain, feed consumption, and feed efficiency during the feeding periods between the groups tested. Birds fed Ole 0.5- and 2.5 ppm-supplemented diets exhibited a significant decrease in muscle carbonyl content compared to the control group. In the group fed Ole 0.5 ppm, the mRNA expression levels of mitochondrial ROS-reducing factors: avian uncoupling protein and manganese superoxide dismutase, as well as peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ coactivator 1-α, sirtuin-1 and -3 (each of which co-ordinately induce the transcription of the previous two factors) were upregulated compared to the control group, and the changes were independent of plasma noradrenaline and thyroid hormone levels. The group fed Ole-2.5 ppm did not show such transcriptional changes, but exhibited a higher corticosterone concentration.4. This study demonstrates that ingesting a low dose of Ole can reduce muscle oxidative damage, and that the suppression machinery may differ depending on the amount of Ole ingested by growing broiler chickens.

Abstract
Abstract
[Introduction] The capture and analysis of CTCs as “liquid biopsy” provides the possibility to avoid invasive biopsies, obvious implications in cancer diagnosis and staging. We tested novel methods for viable CTCs (v-CTC) isolation in the patients (pts) with pancreatic cancer (PC), and investigated the clinical potential of v-CTCs in prognosis. We analyzed the PD-L1(L1) expression in both PC tumors and v-CTCs.
[Pts and Methods] 7.5 ml of venous blood was collected prospectively from 39 PC pts, either surgery first (S group) or pre-treatment, consisted of Gem:800mg/m2; and S-1:80mg/m2 given concurrently with IMRT to 60Gy (NACRT:N group). To detect v-CTCs, we employed a telomerase-specific replication-selective adenovirous expressing GFP. For S group, samples were obtained before/after resection. For N group, samples were obtained before/after NACRT and after resection. To distinguish between leucocyte and cells with either epithelial or mesenchymal origin, cells were stained by anti-CD45, anti-Cytokeratin and anti-Vimentin Abs. GFP-positive and CD45-negative cells were counted as v-CTC. To assess L1 expression in PC tissues (IHC) and v-CTCs, L1 IHC kit (22C3, for tissues) and anti-human L1 mAb(MIH1,for CTCs) were employed.
[Results]S group: 24 pts aged 53~85 years (male/female=12/12) were enrolled. 24 pts underwent curative resection. No v-CTCs were detected in 6 pts at both before and after resection, and 5 of 6 pts survived without recurrence. V-CTCs were identified in 18 of 24 pts, and 13 of 18 pts developed liver metastasis. Marked decrease of CTC counts were seen after resection in 10 of 18 pts, but 9 pts developed recurrence. N group: 15 PC pts aged 44~77 years (male/female=4/11) were enrolled. 15 pts underwent curative resection. No v-CTCs were detected in 5 pts, and 5 pts survived without recurrence. V-CTCs was identified in 10 of 15 pts, and only 3 out of 10 pts developed disease recurrence. Marked increase in CTC counts was observed after NACRT in 5 of 6 CTC-positive pts before NACRT, and 3 of 5 pts developed liver metastasis and died. NACRT may induce tumor cell dissemination into the blood circulation for CTC-positive pts. PD-L1 expression: L1 expression were assessed for 21 pts (S group:18, N group: 3). No patients with IHC-L1 high expression (≥50%) were observed (<1% [negative]:9, 10%:6, 20%:4, 40%:2). For S group, IHC-L1 low +/CTC-L1 + were detected in 12/18 pts (66%). IHC-L1-/CTC-L1+ were detected in 3/18 pts (17%). IHC-L1 - /no detectable CTCs were detected in 3/18 pts (17%). For N group, IHC-L1 - were detected in 3 pts, but CTCs-L1 + were detected in 2 pts (1 pt had no CTCs). The majority of detectable v-CTCs were positive for L1-expression (89% [92/103 CTCs]), despite L1-negative or -low expression in PC tissues.
[Conclusions] Viable CTC detection appears as a promising prognostic marker. Immunotherapy with anti-PD-1/PD-L1 Abs may effectively target v-CTCs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Corticobasal syndrome (CBS) is pathologically characterized by tau deposits in neuronal and glial cells and by reactive astrogliosis. In several neurodegenerative disorders, 18 F-THK5351 has been observed to bind to reactive astrocytes expressing monoamine oxidase B. In this study, the aim was to investigate the progression of disease-related pathology in the brains of patients with CBS using positron emission tomography with 18 F-THK5351. METHODS Baseline and 1-year follow-up imaging were acquired using magnetic resonance imaging and positron emission tomography with 18 F-THK5351 in 10 subjects: five patients with CBS and five age-matched normal controls (NCs). RESULTS The 1-year follow-up scan images revealed that 18 F-THK5351 retention had significantly increased in the superior parietal gyrus of the patients with CBS compared with the NCs. The median increases in 18 F-THK5351 accumulation in the patients with CBS were 6.53% in the superior parietal gyrus, 4.34% in the precentral gyrus and 4.33% in the postcentral gyrus. In contrast, there was no significant increase in the regional 18 F-THK5351 retention in the NCs. CONCLUSIONS Longitudinal increases in 18 F-THK5351 binding can be detected over a short interval in the cortical sites of patients with CBS. A monoamine oxidase B binding radiotracer could be useful in monitoring the progression of astrogliosis in CBS.

Abstract
We report a case of myeloid sarcoma(MS)that primarily developed in the spleen. The patient was a 60s man with a chief complainant of low-grade fever following a dental implant. Although he underwent intensive antibiotic treatment, including levofloxacin, meropenem, and vancomycin, no significant decline in fever was observed. Abdominal contrast-enhanced CT revealed an LDA occupying the majority of his spleen, which was diagnosed as a splenic abscess. Although a CT-guided biopsy and drainage for the spleen were considered, a puncture of the spleen was not performed due to the substantial concern of bleeding. Subsequently, a splenectomy was performed and HE staining revealed mitosis of tumor cells and massive necrosis. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed that the tumor cells were positive for myeloperoxidase, CD43, CD45, and CD68. Finally, the splenic LDA was diagnosed as MS instead of a splenic abscess. He was treated with systemic chemotherapy. MS primarily develops in the spleen is quite rare: we found only 2 case reports of this disease. The prognosis of MS is poor due to the complications of AML. Accordingly, MS should be considered as a differential diagnosis for accurate diagnosis and treatment of splenic LDA.

Abstract
A 67-year-old woman who had been treated for cardiac sarcoidosis was diagnosed with cecal cancer by detailed examination. Although an anatomical abnormality was present, we determined that a curative operation with single-port laparoscopic surgery(SILS)was feasible. We safely performed ileocecal resection with D3 lymph node dissection(operative time of 91 min with almost no intraoperative blood loss), and the patient developed no operation-related complications during the postoperative course. Although cecal cancer with situs inversus is very rare, SILS is thought to be safe and feasible when performed by surgeons, who are familiar with the SILS technique and the spatial-cognitive features of situs inversus.

Abstract
We conducted a retrospective comparative study on feasibility of S-1/oxaliplatin(SOX)therapy and S-1/cisplatin therapy with short hydration(SP-SH)for gastric cancer in the outpatient setting. The subjects were patients with gastric cancer aged younger than 75 years who underwent SOX or SP-SH therapy at our hospital. There were 22 patients in the SOX group and 30 patients in the SP-SH group. Both the groups received the first course during hospitalization and then received the subsequent courses in the outpatient section. Evaluation items for each therapy included the treatment rate in the outpatient setting, number of re-hospitalization cases, relative dose intensity(RDI), and adverse events. The treatment rate in the outpatient setting was 100%(22/22)in the SOX group and 96%in the SP-SH group(26/27). Re-hospitalization cases included 1 case of loss of appetite in the SOX group and 1 cases of loss of appetite and 2 cases of febrile neutropenia(FN)in the SP-SH group. The median values of the RDI were 86% with S-1 and 85% with oxaliplatin in the SOX group and 92% with S-1 and 80% with cisplatin in the SP-SH group. The SP-SH group had a higher proportion of neutropenia cases of Grade 3 or higher(SP-SH 33% v. s SOX 5%, p=0.012). The SOX group showed a higher proportion of loss of appetite cases for all the Grades(SOX 86% v. s SP-SH 50%, p=0.007)and peripheral neuropathy cases(SOX 64% v. s SP-SH 23%, p=0.003). It was considered that SOX and SP-SH therapies can be treated in the outpatient section, although the occurrence of loss of appetite and FN must be considered.

Abstract
BACKGROUND S-1 plus cisplatin(CDDP)has been a key regimen for advanced gastric cancer treatment. However, CDDP confers dose-limiting nephrotoxicity, requires a hospital stay for conventional massive hydration, and reduces patients' quality of life. We evaluated the nephrotoxicity of CDDP combination chemotherapy in an outpatient setting with short hydration for gastric cancer and investigated the feasibility of the short hydration method. METHODS Twenty-nine gastric cancer patients aged under 75 years with creatinine clearance rate >40mL/min and who received S-1 plus CDDP(60mg/m2)were recruited. Intravenous hydration was administered at 1,900 mL with magnesium and a diuretic. Any renal dysfunction over 5 courses of chemotherapy was analyzed. RESULTS The majority(24/29)of patients could receive outpatient chemotherapy. The highest serum creatinine Grade in each course was Grade 1, and none of the patients developed creatinine toxicity of Grade 2 or higher over 5 courses of chemotherapy. An elevation in eGFR grade was found in 51.7%(15/29)patients; in 13 of those patients, the escalation was of at least 1 Grade. CONCLUSION The short hydration method is feasible for gastric cancer patients receiving chemotherapy including CDDP in an outpatient setting.

Abstract
A 44-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital because of an abdominal mass. Blood examination showed no elevation of hepatic enzyme levels but did show a slight increase in the levels of tumor marker CA19-9. An abdominal contrastenhanced CT scan showed a large pedunculated tumor(15 cm)growing from the S5 to the extrahepatic area, with a pattern of earlyenhancement and wash out. Fortunately, organ invasion and tumor dissemination were not observed. Upon FDG-PET examination, marked uptake of FDG was observed in the tumor. S5 hepatic subsectionectomywas performed. The final pathological finding of this tumor was moderatelydifferentiated cholangiocarcinoma. Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma with exophytic growth is quite rare, and is reported to have a poor prognosis. Therefore, strict follow-up, including follow-up CT and examination for tumor markers(CA19-9 and CEA), is required.
