Fludeoxyglucose positron emission tomography-computed tomography in limbic encephalitis

Indian Journal of Nuclear Medicine, 2014
A 66-year-old male patient presented with low grade fever without chills associated with simple partial seizures. He was advised whole body positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT) (fluorodeoxyglucose PET/CT) scan which demonstrated an increase in metabolic activity in the limbic system. There was no evidence of active disease anywhere

Outcomes of Resected Cases of Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma Patients With Unexpected Postoperative Uncovering Noncurative Factors: A Multicenter Retrospective Study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
We aimed to refine treatment strategies for resected cases of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma in patients with unexpectedly uncovered postoperative noncurative factors. Cases with unexpected postoperative uncovering noncurative factors had significantly poorer prognoses than those without such factors.

Learning Curve Effect in Reducing Local Recurrence Rate After Resection of Pancreatic Cancer With Arterial Abutment: A Single‐Center Retrospective Study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pancreatectomy for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) with arterial abutment is a complex, high‐risk surgery. We aimed to investigate the clinicopathological features, risk factors, and learning curve for local recurrence after pancreatectomy for PDAC with arterial abutment.

Conversion Therapy for cT4b and M1 Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma: A Comprehensive Systematic Review

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
We systematically reviewed conversion therapy for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and propose a response‐based treatment strategy for cT4b and M1 disease. For cT4b, we emphasize definitive chemoradiotherapy with timed re‐evaluation and selective salvage or chemoselection to surgery; for M1, conversion is reserved for limited‐burden responders with ...

Functional Advantage of Central Pancreatectomy Over Distal Pancreatectomy for Benign or Low‐Grade Malignant Tumors: A Comparative Analysis Based on 75‐g Oral Glucose Tolerance Test

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Central pancreatectomy (CP) better preserves postoperative pancreatic endocrine function than distal pancreatectomy for benign or low‐grade malignant tumors. The 75‐g oral glucose tolerance test demonstrated that CP maintained insulin secretion and glucose tolerance, highlighting its clinical advantage as a function‐preserving procedure.

Combined Positron Emission Tomography–Computed Tomography: The Historical Perspective [PDF]

Seminars in Ultrasound, CT and MRI, 2008
The 1990s witnessed the development of the first dual-modality imaging devices for clinical applications. A combined PET-CT prototype underwent clinical evaluation from mid-1998 onward. The results from the three-year evaluation program stimulated the demand for commercial designs and in 2001 the first commercial PET-CT scanner was installed in the ...

To Evaluate Whether Pretreatment CA19‐9 and DUPAN‐2 Levels Can Serve as Predictive Markers to Guide the Choice Between NAT and Upfront Surgery in Pancreatic Cancer

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
NAT‐GS was significantly more effective only in patients with one tumor marker above the reference range, comparing those who achieved 12‐month MRFS with those who did not. ABSTRACT Aim Pancreatic cancer (PC) remains one of the most lethal malignancies, with early recurrence severely affecting prognosis even after curative resection.
