Background Clinical guidelines are essential in implementing and maintaining nationwide stage-specific diagnostic and therapeutic standards. In 2011, the first German expert consensus guideline defined the evidence for diagnosis and treatment of early and locally advanced esophagogastric cancers. Here, we compare this guideline with other national guidelines as well as current literature.Methods The German S3-guideline used an approved development process with de novo literature research, international guideline adaptation, or good clinical practice. Other recent evidence-based national guidelines and current references were compared with German recommendations.

ResumenEl cáncer de esófago es el octavo tumor maligno más frecuente del mundo. En la mayoría de los pacientes el diagnóstico del tumor se realiza en estadios avanzados con elevada mortalidad. Se presenta el caso de un paciente masculino de 57 años que permanece asintomático, y en endoscopia digestiva de chequeo encuentran lesión ulcerada de 2 cm en unión esofagogástrica; la biopsia es positiva para malignidad (adenocarcinoma) por lo cual paciente es referido a cirugía oncológica para esofagectomía. El procedimiento realizado es Ivor Lewis (laparotomía + toracotomía derecha), y se complementa con ascenso gástrico para anastomosis esófago-gástrica, cirugía sin complicaciones. Lo silente y agresivo de esta patología debe tenerse en cuenta en pacientes añosos, con factores de riesgo, ya que no presenta sintomatología hasta que es demasiado tarde.PALABRAS CLAVE: neoplasias esofágicas, adenocarcinoma, esofagectomía. Abstract Esophageal cancer is the eighth most frequent malignant tumor in the world. In the majority of patients diagnosis is made in advanced stages in which the mortality rate is high. We present the case of a 57-year-old male patient who remains asymptomatic, and in an endoscopy of the digestive tract an ulcerated lesion of 2 cm was found in an esophagogastric junction, the biopsy is positive for malignancy (adenocarcinoma), and the patient is referred to oncologic surgery for esophagectomy. The procedure performed is Ivor Lewis (laparotomy + right thoracotomy), complemented with a pull-up for esophageal-gastric anastomosis, surgery without complications. The silent and aggressive of this pathology must be taken into account in elderly patients, with risk factors since it does not present symptomatology until it is too late.KEYWORDS: esophageal neoplasms, adenocarcinoma, esophagectomy. resumo O câncer de esôfago é o oitavo tumor maligno mais comum no mundo.

“…In the hip joint, the marginal osteophytes may form laterally or medially (around fovea and the medial margin of acetabular rim). The central and medial osteophytes can cause the buttressing effect medial to the head of femur, thus resulting in its lateralisation in the acetabular fossa and hip incongruency [6][7][8]. The central and inferomedial osteohpytes may easily be neglected in simple hip X-rays due to the fact that anatomically, they are more likely to lie inside the joint.…”

Purpose Despite the great attention focused on cup positioning in primary total hip arthroplasty (PTHA), it is surprising to find so few studies that have dealt with cup placement. A common thwarting problem for correct cup placement during PTHA is the existence of osteophytes, which obscure the anatomical landmarks. In this study we aimed to evaluate the morphology of acetabular osteophyte formation in patients with osteoarthritis. Method We evaluated 276 patients with hip complaints, using plain X-rays and CT scans. Results Of these patients, 57 underwent surgery. We developed a staging system for central osteophytes in hip osteoarthritis based on the radiographic and anatomical findings of our patients. Conclusion We recommend routine use of CT scans for patients scheduled for PTHA in order to assess the stage of osteophyte before surgery and, thus, reduce the risk of failure resulting from the interrupted acetabular landmarks.
