Synchronous adenocarcinoma and stromal tumor (GIST) in the stomach: a rare occurrence

A concomitant epithelial and stromal tumor in stomach is unusual in the literature. The purpose of this paper is to report the case and it's therapeutic management. A 72 year old black male patient , which upper digestive endoscopy showed a gastric neoplasm (Borrmann III) at incisura angularis and the biopsy revealed adenocarcinoma. A subtotal gastrectomy with D2 limphadenectomy and Roux-en-Y reconstruction was performed. The histopathology studies confirmed an adenocarcinoma and a gastric stromal tumor, whose immunohistochemical exam was compatible to GIST. Seventeen months after surgery, a computadorized tomography revealed a retrogastric tumor and laparotomy was indicated to remove the lesion.616

Endovascular management of extremity arterial trauma

Treatment of arterial traumatic injuries is usually performed with conventional revascularization techniques. However, vascular injuries can increasingly be repaired efficiently through minimally invasive procedures. We report four cases of extremity arterial trauma treated by endovascular techniques in a reference center. All patients showed satisfactory development over a 15-month follow-up. We suggest that endovascular therapy is a promising alternative to surgery for selected patients with extremity arterial trauma.Geralmente o tratamento das lesões arteriais traumáticas é realizado com técnicas tradicionais de revascularização. Cada vez mais, porém, as lesões vasculares podem ser corrigidas com eficiência por meio de procedimentos minimamente invasivos. Nós descrevemos quatro casos de trauma arterial dos membros que foram tratados por técnicas endovasculares num centro de referência. Todos os pacientes evoluíram satisfatoriamente durante o seguimento de 15 meses. Nós sugerimos que o tratamento endovascular é uma alternativa promissora em relação à cirurgia para pacientes selecionados com trauma arterial dos membros.566
