Liver is common place where the cancer occurs primary as well as secondary. Liver resection as a potentially healing method can be performed only in about 20% of patients. Prognosis in group of patients treated non-invasively is bad. Using high frequency thermal ablation which damages the neoplastic tissue in liver may lead to prolongation of life expectancy.The aim of the study was to assess the early results of using the high frequency thermal ablation in patients with primary or secondary cancer.Material and methods. During years of 2001-2007 371 patients underwent the 520 procedures of percutaneous RF thermal ablation under US control. Mean age of patients was 62.47 (19-85 ± 11.63). 175 women and 196 men were treated using this method.Results. There were 10 early complications after thermal ablation (1.92% of procedures, 2.7% of patients). Two of them ended fatal (0.38% of procedures, 0.54% of patients). In seven cases absces formation were observed, one of them was the cause of death due to Clostridium perfingens infection. Cholerrhagia from damaged bile duct in cirrhotic liver caused the peritonitis and subsequent death of patient. Two patients suffered from sub-capsular hematoma of liver. 14 patients also suffered from long lasting pain (more than 14 days).Conclusions. Percutaneous thermal ablation in primary or secondary liver tumors is safe and efficient procedure. Long term follow up will give the knowledge about the real value of the procedure.

Recent years, obesity is a growing health problem also in patients with chronic renal failure and end it’s end stage. This situation has a negative impact both on the extension of the waiting period for transplantation, and the survival rate of the transplanted organ and the recipient. Weight loss through lifestyle modification before transplantation is ambiguous. Its well known fact of rapid body mass gain after transplantation, and finnaly the results of transplantation are not better than those of patients who have not reduced body weight. The paper presents preliminary experience associated with bariatric operations of three chronic dialysed patients with morbid obesity BMI> 35 kg/m2, all patients had been treated by Roux-en-Y gastric by-pass (RYGB). All operated patients were classified as potential recipients were listed by Poltransplant. One of them three months after RYGB surgery underwent without complications a renal transplantation. Preliminary experiences based on operating these three caese confirmed the complete safety of this type of approach in patients with end-stage chronic kidney disease (CKD).

A 63-year-old female patient was admitted to the hospital for an in-depth diagnosis of accidentally found pancreatic cystic lesion. The lesion was detected by computed tomography scan and magnetic resonance imaging of the abdomen and identified as potentially malignant mucinous cystic neoplasm (MCN). Endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsy with the analysis of the fluid from the cyst was performed as well and it confirmed the malignancy of the cystic lesion. The patient was qualified for surgery and the final diagnosis based on histopathological examination of the surgical material confirmed MCN with the accompanying invasive pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
