Rectal neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) often present as an incidental finding during colonoscopy. Complete endoscopic resection of low-grade NETs up to 10 mm is considered safe. Whether this is also safe for NETs up to 20 mm is unclear. We performed a nationwide study to determine the risk of lymph node and distant metastases in endoscopically remove...

In the XIX century, the surgeon faces surgical challenges due to the creation of new technologies. Accidental or compressed air-induced injury to the colon and rectum is rare. We present the case of a 45-year-old patient who consults the emergency department, then a high-pressure rectal pneumatic trauma, with clinical findings of peritonism, manage...

BackgroundDue to the development of diagnostic imaging technology, we have increased chance of detecting multiple primary cancers. However, simultaneous triple cancer is still a very rare finding whose frequency is not yet known. Treatment of simultaneous triple cancer is a clinical challenge because it requires multimodal strategies including surg...

Insights into Imaging
Rectal cancer has the eighth highest cancer incidence worldwide, and it is increasing in young individuals. However, in countries with a high human development index, mortality is decreasing, which may reflect better patient management, imaging being key. We rely on imaging to establish the great majority of clinical tumour features for therapeutic...

Abstract Up to 80 % of the rectal injuries reported in US trauma centers occur secondary to firearm injuries. Rectal gunshot wounds are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Diverse surgical approaches and techniques have been described; however, controversy persists regarding the best management for these complex injuries. Nowadays,...

A pre-operative imaging landmark to define the rectum would optimise clinical care of rectal cancer patients and research efforts to improve outcomes. The sigmoid take-off has been suggested as an imaging landmark for the rectosigmoid junction (RSJ). This study aimed to investigate whether this imaging definition of the rectum was validated by surg...

Localized amyloidosis of the intestine is a rare entity, which can clinically masquerade several conditions such as colitis, polyps, and malignant tumors. This study aims to evaluate the clinicopathological features of this entity. To evaluate the clinicopathological features of this entity, a comprehensive search of the literature (1960 to 2019) w...

The diversity in definitions for the rectosigmoid junction is becoming a major obstacle in standardizing optimal treatment of rectal cancers. The study aimed to determine the average distance of the sigmoid take-off from the anal verge and its association with individual factors. Patients diagnosed with rectal and sigmoid colon cancer in our centre...
