Laparoscopic gastrectomy is being compared to open gastrectomy for gastric cancer treatment. Several studies show that laparoscopic and open approaches have comparable short-term surgical outcomes in terms of complication rates. Regarding long-term oncologic outcomes, multiple studies found no differences in the number of retrieved lymph nodes or disease-free and overall survival rates between the two approaches. While the laparoscopic approach has a learning curve of around 20 cases, it provides better post-operative quality of life measures like less pain and earlier return of bowel function.
Laparoscopic radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer management is feasible in highly complex centers with advanced laparoscopic service with comparable oncological results to open procedures with free margins, adequate lymph node count, with a low complication rate and very low recurrence rate.
Current evidence for laparoscopic surgery in colorectal cancersApollo Hospitals
The article lays an emphasis on the laparoscopic surgical method used to treat colorectal cancer. It reviews the current status of the laparoscopic colorectal surgeries and recommendation of evidences for short- and long-term outcome. The early results were against laparoscopic approach. There was a need of properly designed study to validate or invalidate these findings. Seven large-scale trials compared laparoscopic and open colectomy for colon carcinoma and examined short-term and long-term outcomes. These trials included the Clinical Outcomes of Surgical Therapies (COST) trial funded by the National Cancer Institute in the United States, the Conventional versus Laparoscopic-Assisted Surgery in Colorectal Cancer (CLASICC) trial in the United Kingdom, the Colon Cancer Laparoscopic or Open Resection (COLOR), a multicenter European trial.
For the validation of the argument that laparoscopy is safe, meta-analysis was performed. Certain conclusions of meta-analysis are also presented in this article. The individual merits and weaknesses of laparoscopic surgery as compared with open surgery as the primary treatment of colorectal cancer are being highlighted in this article.

Acute scrotum is a general term referring to an emergency condition affecting the contents or the wall of the scrotum.
There are a number of conditions that present acutely, predominantly with pain and/or swelling
A careful and detailed history and examination, and in some cases, investigations allow differentiation between these diagnoses. A prompt diagnosis is essential as the patient may require urgent surgical intervention
Testicular torsion refers to twisting of the spermatic cord, causing ischaemia of the testicle.
Testicular torsion results from inadequate fixation of the testis to the tunica vaginalis producing ischemia from reduced arterial inflow and venous outflow obstruction.
The prevalence of testicular torsion in adult patients hospitalized with acute scrotal pain is approximately 25 to 50 percent
New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

3. Epidemiology
• Gastric cancer (GC) is the fourth most common cancer worldwide
• second most common cause of cancer-related death in the world (700,000 deaths annually).
• Almost two thirds of cases occur in developing countries, with China alone accounting for 42%.
• The incidence in the Middle East countries is relatively low, with rates 5–15 times lower than in
Japan.
• The Jordan Cancer Registry (JCR) indicated that gastric cancer was the tenth most common
cancer in Jordan, accounting for 2.7% of all tumors.
•
4. World map showing estimated 2008 male age-standardized (world) incidence rates per 100,000 by country for gastric cancer. (From Ferlay J, Shin
HR, Bray F, et al. GLOBOCAN 2008 v2.0, Cancer Incidence and Mortality Worldwide: IARC CancerBase No. 10 [Internet]. Lyon (France):
International
Agency for Research on Cancer; 2010. Available at: http://globocan.iarc.fr. Accessed January 7, 2013.)
5. Epidemiology
• The age-standardized rate (ASR) of gastric malignancies among the
Jordanian population was 3.9 per 100,000 population, which puts
Jordan in the low-risk area.
• The ASR in Jordanian males was 4.9 and in females 2.9 per 100,000.
• Worldwide, it is believed that males are affected twice to 3 times
more often than females.

9. Surgical Treatment for Gastric Cancer
• The standard operations are total gastrectomy and subtotal
gastrectomy
• nodal involvement or T2 to T4a tumors.
• Subtotal gastrectomy can be performed when a minimum of 2 to 5 cm
proximal cancer-free margin
• depending upon the depth of infiltration and the growth pattern of the
cancer
• Proximal gastrectomy can be performed for T1N0 proximal gastric
cancers when more than half of the distal stomach can be preserved
• and a pylorus-preserving gastrectomy can be performed for T1N0
cancers of the middle third of the stomach when the distal margin of
the tumor is at least 4 cm from the pylorus
10. Anatomical definition of lymph nodes and lymph node
regions
• The regional lymph nodes of the stomach are classified into
stations numbered 1 to 20, plus stations 110, 111 and 112.
• Some of lymph node stations numbered from 1 to 20 have been
subdivided in further subsets of nodes
• . Lymph node stations 1-12 and LN station 14v are defined as
regional stations; the remnant lymph node stations are considered
as distant stations and metastases to these nodes are classified as
M1.
• Lymph nodes No. 19, 10, 110 and 111 are considered as regional
lymph nodes in case of tumor invading the esophagus.

Surgical Treatment for Gastric Cancer
17. Why comparing??
• laparoscopic surgery is currently preferred over open surgery.
• This includes surgical procedures such as cholecystectomy ,colon
cancer, and hysterectomy
• The reason for this preference of laparoscopic surgery over open
surgery is because of decreased pain, decreased blood loss, shorter
hospital stay, earlier postoperative recovery, better cosmetic (physical
appearance), and decreased costs
18. • the safety of the laparoscopic approach (for a procedure that has a high
complication rate) and cancer clearance after laparoscopic and
laparoscopy-assisted gastrectomy has to be ensured before the method
can be widely recommended
• There are concerns about cancer clearance, since port site metastases
(recurrence of cancer at the laparoscopic port site) have been reported
after many cancers.
• Another issue is the adequacy of cancer clearance in terms of resection
margins and the extent of lymph nodes removed with laparoscopy.
• Therefore, oncological safety (cancer clearance) is an important issue with
laparoscopic and laparoscopic-assisted gastrectomy

41. LEARNING CURVE
retrospectively reviewed and analysed the medical records of 80 patients with gastric
cancer who underwent TLDG with lymph node dissection from January 2016 to
December 2017.
No significant difference was observed between the groups in various clinicopathologic
characteristics.
divided the patients into four groups based on when they underwent TLDG:
group A (cases 1–20), group B (cases 21–40), group C (cases 41–60), and group D (cases
61–80).
Comparative analyses of clinical data, including clinicopathologic characteristics,
operative data, and postoperative course, were performed for these groups.
42. LEARNING CURVE
Total operative time for group A (168.3 ±14.6 min) was significantly longer than for groups
B (152.5 ±10.5 min), C (154.2 ±11.6 min), and D (155.3 ±10.8 min), but there was no
significant difference between groups B, C, and D.
Anastomosis time for group A (27.5 ±12.4 min) was significantly longer than for groups B
(15.3 ±4.6 min), C (16.6 ±5.7 min), and D (15.4 ±4.5 min),but there was no significant
difference between groups B, C, and D.
Non-anastomosis time, estimated blood loss, retrieved lymph nodes, time to first flatus,
time to first oral intake, and postoperative hospital stay and complications showed no
difference between the four groups.
An experience of approximately 20 cases of TLDG was required to complete the learning
curve.
43. Quality of life
July of 2003 to November of 2009
• 164 patients with ECG
• Randomly assigned either to LADG or ODG
• Complete the European Organization for Research and Treatment

• Comparison of LADG to ODG in patients with early gastric cancer resulted in
improved QOL outcomes in the patients followed for up to 3 months in the
LADG group.
44. • Statistically significant differences were observed with a more favorable outcome noted
in the LADG group
• intraoperative blood loss (P < 0.001),
• total amount of analgesics used (P = 0.019),
• the size of the wound and QOL parameters of global health postoperative hospital
stay (P < 0.0001),
