We report the case of a 67-year-old man who was admitted to our department with acute rectal bleeding. The patient had had previous aortoiliac surgery with the utilization of an aortobifemoral vascular prosthesis. Diagnosis of aortoenteric fistula was made between the distal suture line of the right graft leg and the sigmoid colon. This fistula had an enterocutaneous component. After exploratory laparotomy, primary resection of the sigmoid colon, exstirpation of the enterocutaneous fistula, excision of the right graft leg and extraanatomical crossover bypass were successfully performed. This study reports a rare type of aorto/ilac-enteric fistula to the left colon complicated with an entero-grafto-cutaneous component and describes an unusual and successful surgical treatment method.

Using the postero-anterior technique dissection of splenic hilum is more straightforward, recognition of accessory spleen is easier and the likelihood of intraoperative complications is less. In selected cases of splenomegaly the anterior technique is recommended though.

Perineal wound healing problems following extended abdomino-perineal resection of ano-rectal cancer represent a great challenge to the surgeon. Perineal soft-tissue reconstruction with a myocutan flap was thought to reduce surgical wound healing complications. A review of the relevant literature was carried out on perineal soft-tissue reconstruction with rectus abdominis myocutan (VRAM) flap following extended abdomino-perineal rectal resection for cancer. The more commonly used neoadjuvant chemo- and radiotherapy as well as extended surgical radicality resulted in increased perioperative risks, therefore combined procedures between the colorectal and plastic surgical teams are inevitable. This case report illustrates the above trend.

Pancreatic Intraepithelial Neoplasia (PanIN1-3) and Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasms (IPMN) putative precursors of and associated to pancreatic cancer represent a distinct, however pathologically heterogenous entity. Recently a new classification and nomenclature was established. We review the clinicopathologic and cytogenetic characteristics of PanIN and IPMN highlighting the nonaggressive biological behavior of intraepithelial and intraductal neoplasms which, in part explain their favorable prognosis.

a flap harvested and transferred on the first superficial perforating branch(es) of the inferior gluteal artery offers a definitive and recurrence-free surgical solution for SDC.

Az emlő-helyreállító műtétek eredményei a betegek számára nem mindig kielégítőek. A latissimus dorsi izomlebennyel végzett helyreállító műtét megfelelő lehetőség, és endoszkópos preparálás mellett a háti heg is elkerülhető. A hónaljban ejtett egyetlen metszésen keresztül a bőrmegtartó mastectomia és a sentinelnyirokcsomó-eltávolítás vagy az axillaris lymphadenectomia is elvégezhető. Az azonnali emlőrekonstrukcióhoz egyes esetekben a latissimus dorsi izomlebeny használható fel, amely endoszkóposan asszisztáltan ebből a metszésből kipreparálható. A bemutatott beteg az esztétikai és a funkcionális eredménnyel is elégedett volt, a mell alakjának megőrzése és a háti heg mellőzésének köszönhetően.

Reconstruction with pure latissimus dorsi fl ap is useful option and due to endoscopic harvest large scar on the back can be avoided. The skin sparing mastectomy and even the sentinel lymph node biopsy or lymphadenectomy can be performed using a single incision in the axilla. Also the immediate reconstruction with endoscopically assisted harvest of the latissimus dorsi muscle fl ap in selective cases can be done using the same incision. The patient reported high satisfaction with the aesthetic and functional results due to preservation the breast shape and the absence of any scarring on the back.Keywords: breast reconstruction, latissimus dorsi muscle fl ap, endoscopic surgery, breast cancerBeérkezett: 2017. március 3.; elfogadva: 2017. április 26.Rövidítések: DCIS -ductal carcinoma in situ, DIEP -deep inferior epigastric artery, IDC -Invasive Ductal Cancer,
