The Addition of Computer‐Aided Detection (CADe) to Texture and Color Enhancement Imaging (TXI) Does Not Improve Adenoma Detection Rate During Colonoscopy: A Prospective Study

Journal of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Early detection and resection of colorectal polyps prevent their progression toward advanced adenocarcinomas. The use of Texture and Color Enhancement Imaging (TXI) has been demonstrated to enhance adenoma detection compared to white light imaging.

Pan‐TRK expression and NTRK gene aberrations in meningiomas: association with tumor grade and proliferative activity

The Journal of Pathology: Clinical Research, Volume 12, Issue 4, July 2026.
Abstract Tropomyosin receptor kinase (TRK) fusions are actionable oncogenic drivers, and pan‐TRK immunohistochemistry (IHC) serves as a reliable screening tool for NTRK gene aberrations. However, the expression profile and clinical significance of pan‐TRK in meningiomas remain unclear.

Appendix Mucinous Neoplasm

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT A 36‐year‐old female patient accepted the laparoscopic appendectomy; she was diagnosed with low‐grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm. There are no signs of recurrence after 4 years of follow‐up. We review and discuss the advanced literature on LAMN diagnosis and surgical treatment principles.

Clinical Manifestations and Outcomes of Lung Cancer Patients With Appendiceal Metastasis

Thoracic Cancer, Volume 17, Issue 13, July 2026.
Appendiceal metastasis from lung cancer (n = 32): rare entity presenting as acute appendicitis with 84.4% misdiagnosis rate. Infiltrative vascular dissemination causes 56.3% perforation. Simple appendectomy suffices for local control; survival is predominantly driven by systemic therapy.

Safety and Tolerability of Different Total Neoadjuvant Therapies in Patients With Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer

Cancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Total neoadjuvant therapy (TNT) is the standard treatment for locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). Few studies have focused on the toxicity of TNT. Moreover, the differences in safety and tolerability between radiotherapy‐first and chemotherapy‐first strategies remain unclear.
