1Pancreatic insulinoma:current issues and trends显示文摘BACKGROUND:Although insulinomas are very rare tumors, they are the most common pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms.The incidence in general population is 1-4 per 1 000 000 yearly but the incidence is higher in autopsy studies. The malignancy of insulinomas is difficult to be predicted on the basis of their histological features,and the current WHO classification has been re-evaluated.This review aimed to summarize classical knowledge with current trends in the diagnosis and treatment of insulinomas. DATA SOURCES:A Medline search using terms'insulinoma', 'treatment'and'neuroendocrine tumors'was conducted. Additional references were sourced from key articles. RESULTS:Surgery is the treatment of choice for insulinoma and has an extremely high success rate.Medical treatment is also available but only for patients who are unable or unwilling to undergo surgical treatment.Preoperative localization is necessary for planning the surgical approach.Many methods exist for localization of an insulinoma and can be invasive and non-invasive.The combination of biphasic thin section helical CT and endoscopic ultrasonography(EUS)has an almost 100% sensitivity in localizing insulinomas.Laparoscopic ultrasound is mandatory to localize intraoperatively these tumors.EUS-guided fine needle tattoing is an alternative method of localization in case of lack of laparoscopic ultrasound. CONCLUSION:Laparoscopic resection for benign insulinomas is the procedure of choice,whereas pancreatectomy is reserved for large,potentially malignant tumors.Dennis Vaidakis John Karoubalis Theodora Pappa George Piaditis George N Zografos 2010Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2010,9,3:22
2Multiplex RT-PCR-based detections of CEA, CK20 and EGFR in colorectal cancer patients显示文摘AIM: To develop a multiplex reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) method detecting cir-culating tumor cells in the peripheral blood of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. METHODS: Peripheral blood samples were collected from 88 CRC patients and 40 healthy individuals from the blood donors' clinic and subsequently analyzed by multiplex RT-RCR for the expression of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA), cytokeratin 20 (CK20) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mRNA. The analysis involved determining the detection rates of CEA, CK20 and EGFR transcripts vs disease stage and overall survival. Median follow-up period was 19 mo (range 8-28 mo). RESULTS: Rates of CEA, CK20 and EGFR detection in CRC patients were 95.5%, 78.4% and 19.3%, respectively. CEA transcripts were detected in 3 healthy volunteer samples (7.5%), whereas all control samples were tested negative for CK20 and EGFR transcripts. The increasing number of positive detections for CEA, CK20 and EGFR transcripts in each blood sample was positively correlated with Astler-Coller disease stage (P< 0.001) and preoperative serum levels of CEA (P=0.029) in CRC patients. Data analysis using Kaplan-Meier estimator documented signif icant differences in the overall survival of the different CRC patient groups as formed according to the increasing number of positivity for CEA, CK20 and EGFR transcripts. CONCLUSION: These data suggest that multiplex RTPCR assay can provide useful information concerning disease stage and overall survival of CRC patients.Aikaterini Tsouma Chrysanthi Aggeli Panagiotis Lembessis George N Zografos Dimitris P Korkolis Dimitrios Pectasides Maria Skondra Nikolaos Pissimissis Anastasia Tzonou Michael Koutsilieris 2010World Journal of Gastroenterology2010,16,47:19
3Role of probiotics,prebiotics and synbiotics in chemoprevention for colorectal cancer显示文摘Colorectal cancer is the third most common form of cancer.Current treatments are all associated with a high risk of complications and a low success rate.Recently,synbiotics have been proposed as a new preventive and therapeutic option.There is no direct experimental evidence for cancer suppression in humans as a result of the consumption of pro-,pre-or synbiotics.However,there is a wealth of evidence emerging from laboratory studies.The mechanisms by which pro-,pre-and synbiotics may inhibit colon cancer are now beginning to be understood and will be addressed in the present review.Constantine Iosif Fotiadis Christos Nikolaou Stoidis Basileios Georgiou Spyropoulos Eleftherios Dimitriou Zografos 2008World Journal of Gastroenterology2008,14,42:16
4Extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma metastatic to the pancreas: A case report显示文摘Extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma (EMC) is a lowgrade sarcoma characterized by developing metastases and local recurrence in high rate. It is mainly deep seated in the proximal extremities. The most common metastatic sites are the lungs, soft tissues, lymph nodes, bones and the brain. To our knowledge, no case of clearly defined EMC has been reported to date developing a metastasis in the pancreas. We describe a case of a man suffering from EMC who developed a single pancreatic metastasis 20 years after the initial diagnosis. A 49-year-old man was submitted to surgical excision of an EMC, in left thigh, 20 years ago. Fourteen years after the initial diagnosis a local recurrence in left thigh occurred. Multiple lesions of metastatic origin, in both lungs, were excised via thoracotomies until the time being. In 2003, as a part of a periodically performed imaging control, an abdominal CT scan was performed revealing a solid lesion in the pancreas. Distal pancreatectomy was performed. The histopathology of the excised specimen proved to be the one of metastatic lesion of EMC. The above-mentioned case of EMC is, as far as we know, the first one described developing a certain pancreatic metastasis.C Fotiadis A Charalambopoulos S Chatzikokolis GC Zografos M Genetzakis R Tringidou 2005World Journal of Gastroenterology2005,11,14:14
5Cholangiocarcinoma:principles and current trends显示文摘BACKGROUND:Cholangiocarcinoma(CCA)is a lethal cancer of the biliary epithelium,originating from the liver(intrahepatic),at the confluence of the right and left hepatic ducts(hilar)or in the extrahepatic bile ducts.It is a rare malignancy associated with poor prognosis.DATA SOURCES:We searched the PubMed/MEDLINE database for relevant articles published from 1989 to 2008.The search terms used were related to 'cholangiocarcinoma' and its ' treatment'.Although no language restrictions were imposed initially,for the full-text review and final analysis,our resources only permitted the review of articles published in English.This review deals with the treatment of cholangiocarcinoma,the principles and the current trends.RESULTS:The risks and prognostic factors,symptoms and differential diagnosis are thoroughly discussed.In addition,the tools of preoperative diagnosis such as endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography,digital image analysis,fluorescence in situ hybridization and magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography are reviewed.Moreover,the treatment of CCA is discussed.CONCLUSIONS:The only curative treatment available is surgical management.Unfortunately,many patients present with unresectable tumors,the majority of whom die within a year of diagnosis.Surgical treatment involves major resections of the liver,pancreas and bile duct,with considerable mortality and morbidity.However,in selected cases and where indicated,appropriate management with aggressive surgery may achieve a good outcome with a prolonged survival expectancy.George N Zografos Athanasios Farfaras Flora Zagouri Dimosthenis Chrysikos Kostas Karaliotas 2011Hepatobiliary & Pancreatic Diseases International2011,10,1:14
6Gardner's syndrome: A case report and review of the literature显示文摘Gardner's syndrome is an autosomal dominant disease characterized by the presence of colonic polyposis,osteomas and a multitude of soft tissue tumors. The syndrome may present at any age from 2 mo to 70 years with a variety of symptoms, either colonic or extracolonic.We present a case of a 11-year-old female patient with Gardner's syndrome who presented with a lumbar area desmoid tumor and treated with resection of the desmoid,restorative proctocolectomy and ileal pouch anal anastomosis,A review of the current literature has been performed.C Fotiadis DK Tsekouras P Antonakis J Sfiniadakis M Genetzakis GC Zografos 2005World Journal of Gastroenterology2005,11,34:10
7Colonic duplication in adults: Report of two cases presenting with rectal bleeding显示文摘Gastrointestinal duplication is an uncommon congenital abnormality in two-thirds of cases manifesting before the age of 2 years. Ileal duplication is common while colonic duplication, either cystic or tubular, is a rather unusual clinical entity that remains asymptomatic and undiagnosed in most cases. Mostly occurring in pediatric patients,colonic duplication is encountered in adults only in a few cases. This study reports two cases of colonic duplication in adults. Both cases presented with rectal bleeding on admission. The study was focused on clinical, imaging,histological, and therapeutical aspects of the presenting cases. Gastrografin enema established the diagnosis in both cases. The cystic structure and the adjacent part of the colon were excised en-block. The study implies that colonic duplication, though uncommon, should be included in the differential diagnosis of rectal bleeding.C Fotiadis M Genetzakis I Papandreou EP Misiakos E Agapitos GC Zografos 2005World Journal of Gastroenterology2005,11,32:7
8Effects of mycophenolate mofetil vs cyclosporine administration on graft survival and function after islet allotransplantation in diabetic rats显示文摘AIM: To develop an experimental model of islet allotransplantation in diabetic rats and to determine the positive or adverse effects of MMF as a single agent. METHODS: Thirty-six male Wistar rats and 18 male Lewis rats were used as recipients and donors respectively. Diabetes was induced by the use of streptozotocin (60 mg/kg) intraperitoneally. Unpurified islets were isolated using the collagenase digestion technique and transplanted into the splenic parenchyma. The recipients were randomly assigned to one of the following three groups: group A (control group) had no immunosuppression; group B received cyclosporine (CsA) (5 mg/kg); group C receivedmycophenolate mofetil (MMF) (20 mg/kg). The animalswere killed on the 12th d. Blood and grafted tissues were obtained for laboratory and histological assessment. RESULTS: Median allograft survival was significantly higher in the two therapy groups than that in the controls (10 and 12 d for CsA and MMF respectively vs 0 d for the control group, P<0.01). No difference in allograft survival between the CsA and MMF groups was found. However,MMF had less renal and hepatic toxicity and allowed weight gain.CONCLUSION: Monotherapy with MMF for immunosu ppression was safe in an experimental model of islet allotransplantation and was equally effective with cyclosporine, with less toxicity.Constantin Fotiadis Paraskevi Xekouki Apostolos E Papalois PantelisT Antonakis Ioannis Sfiniadakis Dimitrios Flogeras Eleutheria Karampela George Zografos 2005World Journal of Gastroenterology2005,11,18:7
9Transanal polypectomy using single incision laparoscopic instruments显示文摘Transanal excision of rectal polyps with laparoscopic instrumentation and a single incision laparoscopic port is a novel technique that uses technology originally developed for abdominal procedures from the natural orifice of the rectum. Transanal endoscopic microsurgery (TEM) is a well established surgical approach for certain benign or early malignant lesions of the rectum, under specific indications. Our technique is a hybrid technique of transanal surgery, a reasonable method for polyp resection without the need of the sophisticated and expensive instrumentation of TEM which can be applied whenever endoscopic or conventional transanal surgical removal is not feasible.Dimitrios Dardamanis Dimitrios Theodorou George Theodoropoulos Andreas Larentzakis Maria Natoudi Georgia Doulami Christina Zoumpouli Haridimos Markogiannakis Stylianos Katsaragakis George C Zografos 2011World Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery2011,3,4:6
10Primary biliary cirrhosis-specific autoantibodies in first degree relatives of Greek primary biliary cirrhosis patients显示文摘AIM:To determine the prevalence and significance of primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC)-specific autoantibodies in firstdegree relatives (FDRs) of Greek PBC patients. METHODS:The presence of antimitochondrial antibodies (AMA) and PBCspecific antinuclear antibodies (ANA) were determined using indirect immunofluores-cence assays, dot-blot assays, and molecularly based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays in 101 asymp-tomatic for liver-related symptoms FDRs of 44 PBCpatients. In order to specify our results, the same investigation was performed in 40 healthy controls and in a disease control group consisting of 40 asymptomatic for liver-related symptoms FDRs of patients with other autoimmune liver diseases namely, autoimmune hepati-tis-1 or primary sclerosing cholangitis (AIH-1/PSC). RESULTS: AMA positivity was observed in 19 (only 4 with abnormal liver function tests) FDRs of PBC patients and none of the healthy controls. The preva-lence of AMA was significantly higher in FDRs of PBC patients than in AIH-1/PSC FDRs and healthy controls [18.8%, 95% confidence interval (CI):12%-28.1% vs 2.5%, 95% CI:0.1%-14.7%, P = 0.01; 18.8%, 95% CI:12%-28.1% vs 0%, 95% CI: 0%-10.9%, P = 0.003, respectively]. PBC-specific ANA positivity was observed in only one FDR from a PSC patient. Multivariate analysis showed that having a proband with PBC independently associated with AMA positivity (odds ratio: 11.24, 95% CI:1.27-25.34, P = 0.03) whereas among the investigated comorbidities and risk factors, a positive past history for urinary tract infections (UTI) was also independently associated with AMA detection in FDRs of PBC patients (odds ratio:3.92, 95% CI:1.25-12.35,P = 0.02). CONCLUSION:In FDRs of Greek PBC patients, AMA prevalence is significantly increased and independently associated with past UTI. PBC-specific ANA were not detected in anyone of PBC FDRs.Theodoros A Zografos Nikolaos Gatselis Kalliopi Zachou Christos Liaskos Stella Gabeta George K Koukoulis George N Dalekos 2012World Journal of Gastroenterology2012,18,34:4
11Solitary fibrous tumor of the liver expressing CD34 and vimentin:A case report显示文摘A case of a successfully treated solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) of the liver is reported.An 82-year-old female presented with left upper abdominal discomfort,a firm mass on palpation,and imaging studies revealed a large tumor,15 cm in diameter,arising from the left lobe of the liver.A formal left hepatectomy was performed.Microscopic evaluation showed spindle and fibroblast-like cells within the collagenous stroma.Immunohistochemistry disclosed diffuse CD34 and positive vimentin,supporting the diagnosis of a benign SFT.The patient remained well 21 months after surgery.SFT of the liver is a very rare neoplasm of mesenchymal origin.In most cases it is a benign lesion,although some may have malignant histological features and recur locally or metastasize.With less than 30 reported cases in the literature,little can be said regarding its natural history or the benefits of adjuvant radiochemotherapy.Complete surgical resection remains the cornerstone of its treatment.Dimitris P Korkolis Katerina Apostolaki Chrysanthi Aggeli George Plataniotis Emmanuel Gontikakis Dimitra Volanaki Maria Sebastiadou Dimitris Dimitroulopoulos Dimitris Xinopoulos George N Zografos Perikles P Vassilopoulos 2008World Journal of Gastroenterology2008,14,40:3
