INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SURGICAL PATHOLOGY 21(3) 271-277 2013年6月 査読有りRetrorectal or presacral tumors are very rare. We report a unique case of a retrorectal tumor with neuroendocrine differentiation, consisting of high- and low-grade components. A 53-year-old woman treated for a perianal abscess at another clinic was referred to our hospital for continued anal pain. Digital rectal examination identified a soft tumor with a smooth surface in the lower rectum. Pelvic computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging detected a large cystic tumor measuring 8 cm in diameter in the retrorectal space of the pelvis. The border between the tumor and rectal wall, levator ani and vaginal wall was obscure. Fine-needle aspiration cytology was highly suggestive of carcinoma. Abdominoperineal resection was performed, and the tumor was histologically diagnosed as a neuroendocrine carcinoma based on immunohistochemical staining. No previous case has been reported with cystic growth of a neuroendocrine carcinoma in the retrorectal space.

JOURNAL OF GASTROENTEROLOGY 48(6) 770-776 2013年6月 査読有りLynch syndrome, also referred to as hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer, is the most common form of hereditary colorectal cancer, and is associated with a high incidence of multiple primary neoplasms in various organs.A 79-year-old woman (patient 1) diagnosed with ascending colon cancer had a history of previous carcinomas of the uterus, stomach, uroepithelial tract, and colon. One year later, she developed a brain tumor (glioblastoma). A 54-year-old female (patient 2) was diagnosed with endometrial cancer and sigmoid colon cancer. Both patients underwent genetic evaluations independently.No mutations were found in an exon-by-exon analysis of genomic DNA by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and reverse transcription (RT)-PCR. However, multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) identified genomic duplication spanning from exon 7 to exon 14 of the MSH2 gene in both patients. Due to the presence of this characteristic gene duplication, their pedigrees were investigated further, and these showed that they are paternal half-sisters, consistent with paternal inheritance.Large genomic duplication from intron 6 through intron 14 in MSH2 is a very rare cause of Lynch syndrome and is difficult to identify with conventional methods. MLPA may be an alternative approach for detecting large-scale genomic rearrangements.

BIOCHEMICAL AND BIOPHYSICAL RESEARCH COMMUNICATIONS 434(4) 753-759 2013年5月 査読有りIn vitro assessment of chemosensitivity are important for experiments evaluating cancer therapies. The Scepter 2.0 cell counter, an automated handheld device based on the Coulter principle of impedance-based particle detection, enables the accurate discrimination of cell populations according to cell size and volume. In this study, the effects of SN-38, the active metabolite of irinotecan, on the colon cancer cell lines HCT116 and HT29 were evaluated using this device. The cell count data obtained with the Scepter counter were compared with those obtained With the H-3-thymidine uptake assay, which has been used to measure cell proliferation in many previous studies. In addition, we examined whether the changes in the size distributions of these cells reflected alterations in the frequency of cell cycle arrest and/or apoptosis induced by SN-38 treatment. In our experiments using the Scepter 2.0 cell counter, the cell counts were demonstrated to be accurate and reproducible measure and alterations of cell diameter reflected G2/M cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Our data show that easy-to-use cell counting tools can be utilized to evaluate the cell-killing effects of novel treatments on cancer cells in vitro. (c) 2013 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

Japanese Journal of Cancer and Chemotherapy 40(7) 943-945 2013年 査読有りA 64-year-old man received mFOLFOX6+bevacizumab chemotherapy for metastatic lung cancer after rectal cancer resection (Stage IV). After 28 courses, he had an abdominal pain with fever, and computed tomography showed pelvic abscess with stercolith of appendix. He was diagnosed as acute appendicitis with intra-abdominal abscess, and emergency appendectomy with drainage was performed. Two days after the operation, he was suspected to have a sutural leakage as was suggested from the properties of his drainage, therefore re-operation was performed. A small hole of the ileum, about 2 mm in diameter, was observed. The margin of the hole showed neither inflammatory nor neoplastic change, and a suturing closure of the hole was performed. The post-operative course was uneventful. Histopathological findings of the resected appendix suggested that the perforation was caused by necrosis of metastatic cancer cells penetrating the appendiceal wall. This is a case of a bevacizumab-related metachronous perforation that occurred in different gastrointestinal origins within a very short term.

SURGERY TODAY 42(12) 1215-1218 2012年12月 査読有りIntestinal strangulation caused by a mucocele of the appendix is extremely rare and difficult to diagnose. It is not usually suspected pre-operatively. This report presents a case of intestinal strangulation due to a mucous containing cystic lesion that was wrapped around the base of a loop of the small bowel. An 89-year-old female was transferred after an acute onset of abdominal pain. A physical examination revealed severe tenderness with guarding in the right upper quadrant. CT of the abdomen showed a loop of dilated small bowel with edema on the right side of the abdominal cavity suggesting a closed loop obstruction. In addition, a low-density thin-walled mass measuring 5 cm in diameter was also seen in the pelvis. Intestinal strangulation was suspected and emergency laparotomy was thus performed. A loop of terminal ileum 25 cm in length was strangulated by a dilated appendix, and ileocecal resection was performed. The resected appendix measured 9 x 3 cm in size and contained mucus. A histopathological examination showed a mucous containing cystic appendix without mucin-producing, neoplastic epithelial cells. A mucocele of the appendix can present in various ways and it is important to recognize this entity at the time of surgery.

Clinical Journal of Gastroenterology 5(3) 220-224 2012年6月 査読有りWe report a rare case of a mucocele of the appendix due to endometriosis which accidentally ruptured prior to surgery. A 56-year-old woman was referred to our institution for further evaluation of a cecal tumor. Colonoscopy showed a submucosal tumor at the appendiceal orifice in the cecum. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging showed a well-circumscribed mass measuring 4 cm in diameter in the right lower quadrant. A preoperative diagnosis of a simple mucocele of the appendix was established. At laparotomy, a mucocele was identified in the right side of the abdomen however, part of the mucocele had ruptured and yellow mucin was seen around the cecum. An ileocecal resection was performed. Histopathological examination was consistent with a mucocele of the appendix due to endometriosis. Cytology specimens from the yellow mucin showed few proliferating epithelial cells with a mild degree of cytological and architectural atypia. Mechanical pressure due to excess anteflexion during administration of epidural anesthesia may have contributed to the rupture of the mucocele. It is important to handle a mucocele of the appendix with great care to avoid rupture at the time of operation, including during the administration of epidural anesthesia. © Springer 2012.

CLINICAL & TRANSLATIONAL ONCOLOGY 13(6) 419-425 2011年6月 査読有りPurpose FOLFOX (a combination of leucovorin, fluorouracil and oxaliplatin) has achieved substantial success in the treatment of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients. However, about half of all patients show resistance to this regimen and some develop adverse symptoms such as neurotoxicity. In order to select patients who would benefit most from this therapy, we aimed to build a predictor for the response to FOLFOX using microarray gene expression profiles of primary CRC samples. Patients and methods Forty patients who underwent surgery for primary lesions were examined. All patients had metastatic or recurrent CRC and received modifi ed FOLFOX6. Responders and nonresponders were determined according to the best observed response at the end of the first-line treatment. Gene-expression profiles of primary CRC were determined using Human Genome GeneChip arrays U133. We identified discriminating genes whose expression differed significantly between responders and nonresponders and then carried out supervised class prediction using the k-nearest-neighbour method. Results We identified 27 probes that were differentially expressed between responders and nonresponders at significant levels. Based on the expression of these genes, we constructed a FOLFOX response predictor with an overall accuracy of 92.5%. The sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values were 78.6%, 100%, 100% and 89.7%, respectively. Conclusion The present model suggests the possibility of selecting patients who would benefit from FOLFOX therapy both in the metastatic and the adjuvant setting. To our knowledge, this is the first study to establish a prediction model for the response to FOLFOX chemotherapy based on gene expression by microarray analysis.

AMERICAN JOURNAL OF SURGERY 201(4) 531-536 2011年4月 査読有りINTRODUCTION: The aim of this study was to review the impact of age (>= 75 years) on the short-term outcomes of laparoscopic colorectal surgery. METHODS: Three hundred seventy-nine patients under 70 years of age and 91 patients 75 years and older were analyzed. Quantification of comorbidities was performed using the Charlson Weighted Comorbidity Index. Outcome measures were postoperative complications and 30-day mortality. RESULTS: There was no difference in the occurrence of postoperative complications between the younger and older patients. Bivariate analysis revealed that patient age was not a risk factor of major complications (odds ratio = 1.2; 95% confidence interval, .6-2.3). Although bivariate analysis revealed that older age had a statistically significant odds ratio for 30-day mortality (odds ratio = 12.8; 95% confidence interval, 1.3-125.4), multivariate analysis revealed that it was a weighted comorbidity index score of 5 or more (P = .02) and long operative time (P = .01) that were independent predictors of 30-day mortality and not age per se. CONCLUSIONS: Age is not an independent predictor of morbidity and mortality in laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery. (C) 2011 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

Journal of Japanese Society of Gastroenterology 108(3) 429-435 2011年3月 査読有りBetween 1989 and 2009. 10 patients with small bowel adenocarcinoma were treated in our hospitaL These tumors appeared in the jejunum in 6 patients and in the ileum in the remaining 4 patients. All patients had some symptoms. The median size of the tumors was 50mm (30-110mm). All tumors were advanced type 2 lesion with severe stricture. Histologically there were 8 well, 1 moderately and 1 poorly differentiated adenocarcinomas. There were 8 tumors invading the serosa and 2 tumors invaded other organs. Positive lymph nodes were identified in 6 cases. Liver metastasis and peritoneal dissemination were identified in 3 and 4 cases, respectively. Eight cases were diagnosed as small bowel adenocarcinoma preoperatively by double balloon endoscopy. The 4 patients with stage II tumor and 2 patients with stage III tumor underwent curative-intent surgery. The 4 patients with stage II tumor are all surviving without evidence of disease now.

JOURNAL OF ATHEROSCLEROSIS AND THROMBOSIS 18(3) 190-199 2011年 査読有りAim: Adipocyte lipolysis is mediated by a family of triglyceride (TG) lipases consisting of hormone-sensitive lipase (LIPE), adipose triglyceride lipase (PNPLA2) and carboxylesterase 1 (CES1); however, little is known about the relationship between the expression of each gene in different depots and TG lipase activity or obesity Method: We measured both mRNA expression levels of the lipolytic enzymes (LIPE, PNPLA2 and CES1) and TG lipase activities of biopsy samples obtained from subcutaneous, omental and mesenteric adipose tissues of 34 patients who underwent abdominal surgery. The results were correlated with clinical parameters: adiposity measures, parameters for insulin resistance and plasma lipid levels. Results: PNPLA2 mRNA levels were slightly higher in omental fat than subcutaneous fat. Cytosolic TG lipase activities were positively correlated with the mRNA levels of CES1 in subcutaneous fat and mesenteric fat, while they were correlated with those of PNPLA2 in omental fat. The mRNA levels of LIPE were negatively correlated with various measures of adiposity in subcutaneous fat. The mRNA levels of CES1 were positively correlated with various measures of adiposity, particularly those estimated by CT in the three depots; they were also positively correlated with plasma LDL-cholesterol levels in omental fat. In contrast, the mRNA levels of PNPLA2 were not significantly associated with adiposity. Conclusions: The positive correlations of the expression of CES1 with cytosolic TG lipase activities as well as with adiposity suggest that CES1 is involved in lipolysis, thereby contributing to the development of obesity-associated phenotypes. On the other hand, the expression of LIPE is negatively correlated with adiposity. These distinct regulatory patterns of lipolytic genes may underlie the complex phenotypes associated with human obesity.
