Background/Aim: The prognosis of cholangiolocarcinoma, a rare malignant liver tumor derived from hepatic progenitor or stem cells, is considered relatively good; however, it frequently recurs. We herein present the diagnosis, histological findings, and treatment of cholangiolocarcinoma. Case Report: A 65-year-old woman with a large liver tumor (70 mm...
Recently, therapeutic drug monitoring of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU), the key chemotherapeutic drug for colorectal cancer, has been applied in daily clinical practice and has contributed towards improving clinical outcomes. However, current dose modifications are based only on values of the area under the plasma concentration–time profile, which are simply...
Background: Innominate grooves (IGs) in the colon are ubiquitous structures limiting anthemic folds. The histology of the crypts in anthemic folds is well known but the histology of IGs has remained unattended. In this study, IG crypts in the normal mucosa and in ulcerative colitis (UC) were analyzed. Patients and Methods: IGs displayed a single central-lumen...
Metastasis is a process which is characterized by the existence of tumor cells in the bloodstream. This is a necessary situation in order for the malignant cells to be transported to other organs. Thus, the importance of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in the study of carcinogenesis is widely accepted. These tumor cells are nowadays a topic of intensive...
Background/Aim: We retrospectively investigated the significance of pre-treatment interferon-gamma release (IGR) as a biomarker for predicting the efficacy of immune checkpoint inhibitor treatment (ICI-tx). Patients and Methods: This study included non-small-cell lung cancer patients who received ICI-tx between January 1, 2016 and April 30, 2019. IGR...
