[Resection of the celiac axis increase resectability rate in locally advanced pancreatic body and gastric tumor].

Celiac axis involvement in locally advanced neoplasia was considered in the past a criteria of non resectability. Carcinoma of the body and tail of the pancreas is often diagnosed at an advanced stage or metastatic stage. Gastric carcinoma (particularly antral localization) can also be locally invasive. Celiac axis can be invaded in both neoplasias. In order to increase resectability rate in those two types of neoplasia celiac trunk resection was proposed (en bloc with distal pancreatectomy, loco-regional lymph node excision with or without total gastrectomy). We report our experience on 3 patients and some considerations about this surgical technique from medical literature.

[Mechanical jaundice in a cystic tumor of the hepatic pedicle].

The present paper reports on an observations of mechanical jaundice by a rare cystic tumour of the hepatic pedicle. Although the diagnosis of obstructive jaundice is sufficient as an operatory indication, a series of imaging methods were used for establishing the situs and the nature of the obstruction.

[Pancreatic pseudocysts].

Clinical, evolutive and therapeutical aspects were studied, of 66 cases of patients with pancreatic pseudocysts hospitalized in the clinic over a period of 27 years. Particular modalities of onset were, those of patients with duodenal stenosis, mechanical jaundice, ascites and pleurisy, those in whom symptomatology suggested kidney or cholecystic disease. The intraoperative diagnosis raises the problem of differentiating a retroperitoneal tumor, identifying the possible association with a pancreatic cancer, and the condition when the pseudocysts are found at a certain distance from the pancreas itself. The therapeutical methods are codified, but recidives are possible. Cholecystectomy removes the biliary cause of pancreatitis which can determine the development of pseudocysts. The death rate of these cases was 6.3%.

[Repeat hepatic resections].

Five cases of iterative liver resections are presented, out of a total of 150 hepatectomies performed between 1.01.1995-1.01.1998. The resections were carried out for recurrent adenoma (one case), cholangiocarcinoma (two cases), hepatocellular carcinoma (one case), colo-rectal cancer metastasis (one case). Only cases with at least one major hepatic resection were included. Re-resections were more difficult than the primary resection due, first of all, to the modified vascular anatomy. Intraoperative ultrasound permitted localization of intrahepatic recurrences. Iterative liver resection appears to be the best therapeutical choice for patients with recurrent liver tumors.
