OBJECTIVES: Our understanding of a variant type of leiomyoma lags far behind of leiomyoma/leiomyosarcoma of the uterus. The rarity of variant type leiomyomas limits epidemiologic study, evidence-based guidance for diagnosis and treatment. We aimed to analyze clinical, pathologic and radiological features of variant type of leiomyomas in women who underwent surgical therapy for symptomatic disease in a tertiary center. We furthermore intended to put forth the recurrence patterns of variant type of leiomyoma after uterine-conserving therapies...

Introduction: Seeds may be found in gastrointestinal tissue samples, and their multifaceted appearance may be challenging. The aim is to report a rough incidence of pathology samples which show seeds, specify the most frequent sample types and show an iconography of the most commonly identified seeds. Materials and Methods: Between 2017 and 2020, all gastrointestinal pathology cases in which seeds/seed parts were found, were collected and seed type described by referencing a seed image library. Results: Fifty cases with complete seeds/seed parts were collected: 16 colonic resections for colorectal cancer and diverticulosis, 13 appendiceal resections for appendicitis, 1 gastric resection...

BACKGROUND: In recent decades, transanal surgery for rectal lesions has become a valid alternative treatment for the treatment of small lesions of the rectum. Significant benefits in terms of morbidity and mortality are confirmed. There are multiple platforms for transanal surgery but the TEO system® is one of the best known. METHODS: Between November 2017 and July 2019, 25 patients with rectal lesions suitable to transanal treatment came to our observation. In all reported cases, full-thickness rectum resections were performed...

During the past decades, endoscopic resection techniques have gradually improved and gained more importance for the management of premalignant lesions and early cancers. These endoscopic resection techniques can be divided in 3 major groups: snare polipectomy, endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) and endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). The use of submucosal injection is essential for the majority of EMR techniques and is an integral part of ESD, whereas during polipectomy it is not crucial in most cases except to prevent bleeding in large polyps and/or those with large stalks as an alternative to mechanical methods...

OBJECTIVES: Robotic assisted transanal polipectomy may have advantages compared with the conventional transanal minimally invasive surgery technique. We evaluate the safety, feasibility and advantages of this technique. METHODS: Between February 2014 and October 2015, 9patients underwent robotic transanal polypectomy. We performed a retrospective study in which we analyse prospectively collected data regarding patient and tumor characteristics, perioperative outcomes, pathological report, morbidity and mortality...

INTRODUCTION: follicular dendritic cell sarcoma (FDC sarcoma) is an uncommon neoplasm derived from FDC present in lymphoid follicles. It usually presents in lymph nodes, being extranodal location a very unusual event. CASE REPORT: A 78 year old female, with prior left nephrectomy for invasive urothelial carcinoma, consulted for genitorragia. At examination, a polypoid vaginal lesion, measuring 3.5 cm in diameter was discovered. It was reported as squamous cell carcinoma in incisional biopsy...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Screening colonoscopy with polipectomy reduces colonorectal cancer incidence and mortality. An adequate bowel cleansing is one of the keys to achieving best results with this technique. Oral sodium phosphate solution (OSP) had a widespread use in the 90s decade. Its efficacy was similar to polyethylene glycol (PEG) solution, but with less cost and convenient administration. Series of patients with acute renal failure due to OSP use have been reported. However, large cohorts of patients found no difference in the incidence of renal damage between these two solutions...

The aim of this study was to analyze all available evidence regarding the use of intrauterine morcellator (IUM), for treatment of the most prevalent intrauterine benign lesions, compared to both traditional resectoscopy and conventional outpatient operative hysteroscopy in terms of safety, efficacy, contraindications, perioperative complications, operating time, and estimated learning curve. We reported data regarding a total of 1185 patients. Concerning polypectomy and myomectomy procedures, IUM systems demonstrated a better outcome in terms of operative time and fluid deficit compared to standard surgical procedures...

Colonoscopies play a vital role in population screening programs, either for initial examinations or as a test carried out after a positive result from a fecal occult blood test or sigmoidoscopy. Colonoscopies, and ancillary techniques such as polipectomies, must comply with basic quality criteria that must be reflected in the quality standards of screening programs. A quality colonoscopy is absolutely vital to avoid the occurrence of interval cancers. It is extremely important to detect any proximal lesions during a colonoscopy, especially those which are serrated, because they are difficult to identify and due to the increased risk of colorectal cancer...

INTRODUCTION: The standard treatment of colo-vesical fistula is the exeresis of fistula, suture of bladder wall, colic resection with or without temporary colostomy. Usually the approach is open because conversion rates and morbidity are lower than laparoscopy. The aim of video is to show the steps of a new mini-invasive approach of colo-vesical fistula without colic resection. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A 69 years old male underwent laparoscopic conservative treatment of colo-vesical fistula due to endoscopic polipectomy in sigmoid diverticulum...

Congenital and acquired uterine factors are known to influence the success of assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs). Several studies analyzed the role of uterine septa, adenomyosis, myomas, endometrial polyps and intrauterine adhesions in female infertility. All of them might cause defective endometrial receptivity and consequently decreased embryo implantation and pregnancy rate. In particular, septate uterus represents the most frequent Müllerian anomaly leading to an increased risk of abortion. Many studies evaluated the role of hysteroscopic metroplasty on fertility outcomes, but this topic remains controversial...

We present a case of a 54-year-old man with abdominal pain four hours after colonoscopy and upper endoscopy. Since he had had a polipectomy and an ulcer was seen in the terminal ileum, the diagnosis of appendicitis was even more difficult. The authors discuss the rarity of this situation and the minimally invasive approach to treat appendicitis.

INTRODUCTION: Churg-Strauss syndrome (CSS) is a rare, systemic, necrotizing, small- and middle-sized vessel vasculitis which is accompanied by blood eosinophilia, eosinophil infiltration of various tissues and bronchial asthma. Leukotriene receptor antagonists (LTRAs) may participate in the pathogenesis of the disease. AIM OF THE STUDY: The aim of this study was a retrospective evaluation of the influence of LTRAs on the development of CSS and its later course. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Hospital charts of 24 patients from the southern Poland region with diagnosed CSS between 1999-2010 were retrospectively analyzed...
