Emergent approach to small bowel tumors: diagnosis and treatment
CONCLUSION: Small bowel tumors frequently present with abdominal pain, bloating, and nausea and vomiting. CT and endoscopic procedures are the primary diagnostic tools. Small bowel cancers are often diagnosed late due to subtle clinical findings and the limitations of endoscopic imaging. Targeted screening strategies may be beneficial for certain at-risk and symptomatic patient groups. Early surgical intervention offers significant advantages for diagnosed patients.PMID:38506384 | PMC:PMC10977489 | DOI:10.14744/tjtes.2024.33680 (Source: Turkish Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery : TJTES)

Double-balloon enteroscopy for the detection of GIST in a patient with neurofibromatosis type 1
Rev Esp Enferm Dig. 2024 Mar 12. doi: 10.17235/reed.2024.10351/2024. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTNF1 is an autosomal dominant hereditary disease, with a prevalence of at least 1 in 4000-5000 population. The diagnosis criteria of NF1 included typical manifestations such as café-au-lait spots, frecking in the axilla or inguinal region, multiple neurofibromas, Lisch nodeules, and distinctive osseous lesions. Genetic testing shows NF1 mutation. It is essential for tumor surveillance in NF1 patients because their life expectancy is about 54 years due to malignancy. A case of NF-1 patient receive laparoscopic small bowel rese...
