Abstract
BACKGROUND Appendix adenocarcinomas (AAs) are rare tumours that often present late, with a propensity for peritoneal metastases (PMs). This study aimed to evaluate outcomes of AA patients undergoing cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with curative intent and determine the role of systemic chemotherapy. MATERIALS AND METHODS Data were collected from a prospective database and classified according to World Health Organization (WHO) 2019 classification. Tumour clearance from CRS was described using a completeness of cytoreduction (CC) score ranging from 0 [no residual disease (RD)] to 3 (>2.5 cm RD). Patients with CC0-2 CRS received hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). Systemic chemotherapy was categorised as 'prior' (>6 months before), 'neoadjuvant' (<6 months before), 'adjuvant' (<6 months after CC0-1 CRS) or 'palliative' (after CC2-3 CRS). Analyses used Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression methods. RESULTS Between January 2005 and August 2021, 216 AA patients were identified for inclusion. Median age was 59 years (21-81 years). CRS/HIPEC was carried out in 182 (84%) patients, of whom 164/182 (76%) had mitomycin C HIPEC. CC0-1 was achieved in 172 (80%) patients. Systemic chemotherapy was given to 97 (45%) patients from the whole cohort and to 37/46 (80%) patients with positive nodes. Median overall survival (OS) was 122 months (95% confidence interval 61-182 months). After multivariate analysis, patients with acellular and lower-grade PM had similar OS to those with localised (M0) disease (P = 0.59 and P = 0.19). For patients with positive nodes, systemic chemotherapy was associated with reduced risk of death compared to no chemotherapy (P < 0.0019). CONCLUSION This study identifies AA patients with positive lymph nodes derive the most benefit from systemic chemotherapy. We confirm the prognostic importance of stage and peritoneal grade, with excellent outcomes in patients with acellular mucin and lower-grade PM.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Low grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasms (LAMN) are known to metastasise to the peritoneum resulting in pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP). Literature suggests that the long-term outcome is dependent on the cellular grade of the peritoneal histology, less is known about the risk to patients with acellular mucinosis (AM) alone. This study aims to review long-term outcomes in patients with PMP treated with Cytoreductive Surgery and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy (CRS/HIPEC), whose peritoneal histology was AM secondary to LAMN. METHODS Pathological and treatment outcomes were collected from a prospectively maintained database between 2005 and 2019. Data was collected on patients with LAMN and AM diagnosed following CRS/HIPEC. A single institution performed the surgery and pathology reporting, samples reported by three different pathologists. RESULTS Of the 2079 patients with any appendiceal neoplasm referred between 2005 and 2019, 809 underwent CRS/HIPEC, 67 (8%) of those had PMP with purely AM secondary to a LAMN. In the AM group the median age was 59, 37 (55%) were female, follow up was for a median 39 (2-145) months. Inpatient mortality occurred in 1 patient (1.5%), disease specific mortality in 2 (3%), recurrence in 2 (3%) and disease progression in 1 (1.5%). CONCLUSION This study has identified AM secondary to LAMN as a low risk group for recurrence following CRS/HIPEC compared with epithelial pathology. Given such a low rate of recurrence we would recommend low intensity surveillance post CRS/HIPEC. Agreed standardised pathological assessment is required to exclude cellular material in specimens and diagnose AM.

Abstract
AIM Surgery is the only modality of cure in patients diagnosed with neuroendocrine tumours (NETs). The aim of this study was to identify prognostic factors associated with disease relapse in patients with NETs treated by potentially-curative surgery. METHODS Sequential patients registered in The Christie European NET Society (ENETS) Centre of Excellence, with grade (G)1 or G2 NETs who had undergone curative surgery (February 2002-June 2014) were included. Investigated prognostic factors for relapse were: age, gender, TNM stage, tumour-localisation, functionality, genetic predisposition, presence of multiple NETs, second malignancy, grade (Ki-67-based), presence of vascular and/or perineural invasion, necrosis, surgical margin (R0/R1), Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status and Adult Comorbidity Evaluation co-morbidity score. RESULTS One hundred and eighty-eight patients were identified [median age of 60 years (range 16-89)]. With a median follow-up of 2.6 years, 43 relapses occurred. The estimated median relapse-free survival (RFS) for the entire cohort was 8.0 years (95% confidence interval [CI] 5.9-10.0 years). In univariate analysis, primary NET location (p = 0.01), ENETS T-(HR-1.4; 95%-CI 1.0-2.0, p = 0.026), N-(HR-2.0, 95%-CI 1.1-3.9, p = 0.026) and M-stage (HR-2.6, 95%-CI 1.1-6.3, p = 0.052), grade (Ki-67%-based) (HR-2.5; 95%-CI 1.4-4.7; p = 0.003) and perineural invasion (HR-2.1; 95%-CI 1.1-3.9; p = 0.029) were prognostic for relapse. Factors remaining significant after multivariable analysis were tumour size (HR-1.67; 95%-CI 1.04-2.70; p = 0.03), nodal involvement (HR-2.61; 95%-CI 1.17-5.83; p = 0.013) and Ki-67 at the time of diagnosis (HR-1.93; 95%-CI 1.24-3.0; p = 0.002). CONCLUSION Size of tumour, lymph node involvement and Ki-67 were independent prognostic factors for relapse after potentially curative surgery in NET.

Abstract
Context: Brain metastases are the most common type of intracranial neoplasm, with the total number outnumbering primary brain tumors by a ratio of 10:1 and occur in about 25% of cancer patients. However, controversies exist regarding demographic and clinical profile of brain metastases. Aims: The purpose of this study was to analyze retrospectively the demographic and clinical profile of patients with brain metastases. Settings and Design: Retrospective, single institutional study. Materials and Methods: A retrospective study of 72 patients with brain metastasis was carried out from November 2010 to October 2012. The data pertaining to these patients was entered in a standardized case record form. These include History; clinical examination and other investigations including computed tomography/magnetic resonance imaging scan of the brain. Statistical Analysis: A statistical analysis was performed on the data collected using the MedCalc version 11. Results: Brain metastases were more common in male and occur in 6th decade of life mostly. There was no relationship of occupation or socio-economic status with the incidence of brain metastases. Carcinoma lung was the most common primary giving rise to brain metastases followed by breast. Adenocarcinoma accounts for most common histology of the primary that give rise to metastases. Multiple metastases were more common than the single group. Supratentorial lesions were more common than infratentorial lesions. Among them, parietal lobe was the most common site of involvement. Conclusions: The present study highlights that the incidence of brain metastasis is common in elderly population and mostly due to primary lung. Adenocarcinoma was the most common histology of primary. Majority of lesions has been observed at parietal lobe.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm (LAMN) is a precursor lesion for pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP), which, if treated suboptimally, may later disseminate throughout the abdominal cavity. The role of cytoreductive surgery for these relatively early lesions is unclear. METHODS Clinicopathological details and treatment outcomes of patients with a LAMN and disease limited to the appendix or immediate periappendiceal tissues, referred to a national treatment centre between 2002 and 2009, were evaluated prospectively. RESULTS Of 379 patients with a diagnosis of PMP, 43 (median age 49 years) had LAMNs localized to the appendix and periappendiceal tissue. Thirty-two patients initially presented with symptoms of acute appendicitis or right iliac fossa pain. Two distinct lesions were identified: type I (disease confined to the appendiceal lumen) and type II (mucin and/or neoplastic epithelium in the appendiceal submucosa, wall and/or periappendiceal tissue, with or without perforation). Type I lesions were managed by a watch-and-wait surveillance policy with serial measurement of tumour markers and computed tomography in 14 of 16 patients. Seventeen of 27 patients with type II lesions underwent risk-reducing cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy with low morbidity. After a median follow-up of 40 months, there was no disease progression in either treatment pathway. CONCLUSION This study identified two LAMN subtypes. Type II lesions have pathological features of increased risk for dissemination and should be considered for risk-reducing cytoreductive surgery.

Abstract
Twenty uncomplicated cases of cirrhosis of liver, proved by liver biopsy, and free from other systemic diseases were studied. Glucose (pre- and postprandial) and electrolytes (Na+, K+, Cl-) values were compared to those of systemic and portal venous blood. Chloride level in ascitic fluid was found to be significantly high in cirrhosis, as compared to portal and systemic venous blood. Sodium and glucose levels were similar in ascitic fluid and portal venous blood except in two cases complicated with tuberculous peritonitis, where pre- and postprandial glucose levels were considerably low. In 55% cases, there was impaired glucose tolerance, as measured by pre- and postprandial glucose levels in systemic venous blood.
