Gastrointestinal Surgery of Neuroendocrine Neoplasms

2015
Surgery is the only treatment that may cure the patient with gastroenteropancreatic (GEP) neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) and should always be considered as the first-line treatment if radical resection can be achieved. Even in cases where radical surgery is not possible, palliative resection may be performed to reduce local or hormone-induced symptoms

Neoplasms of the Bovine Gastrointestinal Tract

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, 1990
Neoplasms of the bovine gastrointestinal tract are rare, possibly because of the low age of the sample population (slaughtered cattle). Forestomach neoplasia (papilloma/squamous cell carcinoma) has a high incidence in cattle from northern England and Scotland because of the mutagenic effects of bracken fern consumption and its interaction with BPV-4 ...

Overt gastrointestinal bleeding in haematologic neoplasms

Digestive and Liver Disease, 2005
Patients with acute leukaemia suffer from various haemorrhages, most frequently due to thrombocytopenia. We could not reach any information regarding the frequency of gastrointestinal bleeding in acute leukaemia and decided to search this complication in patients with acute and chronic leukaemias and myeloproliferative disorders, retrospectively.During

NEUROFIBROMATOSIS originally described by von Recklinghausen in 1882 is often depicted as a chronic progressive hereditary disease characterized by pigmentation of the skin, cutaneous lesions, and numerous tumors developing in association with elements of both the central and peripheral nervous systems. This entity is often complicated by abnormalities

A Classification System of Echogenicity for Gastrointestinal Neoplasms

Digestion, 2005
<i>Background and Aims:</i> To confirm the utility of a newly-devised endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS) echogenicity classification system, which is based on the normal five-layer structure of the gastrointestinal wall, for the differential diagnosis of gastrointestinal neoplasms.

[Artificial gastrointestinal tract in gastrointestinal neoplasms].

Onkologie, 1979
From 1970 to 1977 an artificial gut was used in 1350 patients suffering from gastrointestinal cancer. This type of prolonged intestinal assistance was recognized to be an important adjuvant in anticancer therapy with indications prior to, during and following the traditional course of treatment.

Gastrointestinal tract neoplasms with dependent hypoglycemia

The American Journal of Surgery, 1974
Abstract A seventy-four year old man with primary adenocarcinoma of the colon and hepatic metastases was found to have severe hypoglycemia. A recently developed test using glucagon excluded the possibility of hyperinsulinism and deficient hepatic storage of glycogen as mechanisms for hypoglycemia.

Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors and Extra-Gastrointestinal Tract Neoplasms

Southern Medical Journal, 2010
Gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) is a relatively uncommon and predominantly sporadic tumor of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT). Infrequently, it can be associated with other neoplasms, notably GIT carcinomas and, rarely, extra-gastrointestinal tumors. Whether this concomitant occurrence is a causal association or a coincidence is not yet resolved,

Gastrointestinal lymphoid neoplasms.

Seminars in diagnostic pathology, 1987
Primary gastrointestinal lymphomas (PGLs) are the most frequent extranodal non-Hodgkin's lymphomas and involve stomach more commonly than small bowel in Western countries. PGLs need to be differentiated from a variety of tumor-like hyperplastic lymphoid lesions; this may be facilitated by immunotyping of lymphoid cells.
