In this case report, we describe a rare event: acute inflammation of the true cecal diverticulum. Emergency surgery enabled proper diagnosis and management of this condition. Diagnostic approaches and the management of this disease are described in detail and based on literature review. In conclusion, pathologies of cecal diverticula should be considered in differential diagnosis of pain in the right iliac fossa.

Hereditary Mixed Polyposis Syndrome - Own Experience

100%
EN
Hereditary mixed polyposis syndrome (HMPS) is a rare condition of unknown genetic origin. The paper presents 25-year clinical follow up in a female patient with multiple gastrointestinal tract polyps of varied histology. They most likely served as sites of multiple colorectal cancers development. The clinical course is interesting in terms of diagnostics and therapy. The patient required extended genetic testing, intensive conservative treatment and numerous surgical procedures. This is the first case of HMPS presented in Polish publications.

The only proven, effective therapy in case of the gastric cancers is surgery.The aim of the study. The most common procedure which is made in such a situation is total resection of the stomach. In our publication we would like to present and to recommend a very rare made type of the reconstructive procedures after total gastrectomy, which is called "double tract reconstruction" (DTR). This type of reconstruction is occasionally made mainly in Japan.Material and methods. Double tract reconstruction has been made in 2nd Department of General and Gastroenterological Surgery since 2000. Till today 75 patients were treated with this method.Results. The frequency of complications after double tract reconstruction was occasional, and there were no differences between this procedure and Roux-en-Y method of the reconstruction. There were no differences in the time of the operation between this two methods. The most important advantage of this method is that duodenal passage is extant. Because of that the endoscopic examination of papilla Vateri can be made.Conclusions. We would like to recommend this method as an alternative to Roux-en-Y procedure because of its simplicity and safeness.

Insulin Like Growth Factor (IGF I) as the one of the strongest growth factors which can affect cancers development including colorectal cancer. IGF I induces processes of the cells growth and division. It regulates cells cycle and inhibits apoptosis. There is limited data about correlation between IGF I and staging of the tumor.The aim of the study was estimation of the clinical usefulness of IGF I concentration in the serum of the patients with colorectal cancer.Material and methods. We have examined 125 individuals with colorectal cancer. The age range was 36 to 92 years. They have been operated in the 2nd Departament of The Gastrointestinal Surgery of the Medical University in Białystok. Serum concentration of the IGF I have been estimated using immunoassay ELISA before and after operation. Correlation between serum level of IGF I and clinicopathologic features: age, gender, localisation of the primary tumor, TNM stage of tumor, histological type and histological grade (G) of the cancer have been estimated.Results. Our study revealed statistically significant increased serum concentration of IGF I in patients with locally advanced colorectal cancer (pT3 and pT4) comparing to less advanced (pT2) The investigations showed higher serum concentration of IGF I in patients with poorly differentiated cancers (G3) than in moderately differentiated. Similarly higher serum concentration of IGF I were found in male, in patients older than 60 years and in mucigenous colorectal cancers.Conclusions. Our results indicated that IGF I can be one of the factors of the prognosis in colorectal cancer development.
