Immunoglobulin G4-related sclerosing cholangitis mimicking cholangiocarcinoma: a case report and literature review

Only registered users can translate articles

Immunoglobulin G4 (IgG4)-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a novel clinical disease that is characterized by elevated serum IgG4 concentrations and tumefaction or tissue infiltrated by IgG4+ plasma cells. The clinical manifestations of IgG4-RD depend on the type of tissues affected. IgG4-related

Cholangiocarcinoma associated with limbic encephalitis and early cerebral abnormalities detected by 2-deoxy-2-[fluorine-18]fluoro-D-glucose integrated with computed tomography-positron emission tomography: a case report.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Limbic encephalitis was originally described as a rare clinical neuropathological entity involving seizures and neuropsychological disturbances. In this report, we describe cerebral patterns visualized by positron emission tomography in a patient with limbic encephalitis and

A long-term survivor of hilar cholangiocarcinoma with resection of recurrent peritoneal dissemination after R0 surgery: a case report.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Although hilar cholangiocarcinoma (HCCA) has a very poor prognosis, there are cases in which long-term survival is rarely obtained by multidisciplinary treatment. METHODS A 61-year-old man diagnosed with HCCA was referred to our hospital. We performed an extended left hemi-hepatectomy and

A Successful Case of a Patient Undergoing Warfarin and S-1 Therapy Using Internet-based Control of Home-measured PT-INR.

Only registered users can translate articles

To avoid major bleeding events in warfarin and S-1 combination therapy, PT-INR levels should be monitored frequently to allow for precise adjustments of the warfarin dose and to verify any side effects reported by the patient. We therefore developed a support system where outpatients obtain a

Adrenalectomy for primary aldosteronism: long-term follow-up study in 29 patients.

A review of seven hepatic resections in six patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis is presented. These cases consisted of hepatocellular carcinoma in four, and cholangiocellular carcinoma, myelolipoma and focal nodular hyperplasia in one each. The last preoperative hemodialysis was undertaken

Characterization of regulatory volume decrease in freshly isolated mouse cholangiocytes.

Only registered users can translate articles

Cell volume regulation plays a vital role in many cell functions. Recent study indicates that both K(+) and Cl(-) channels are important for the regulatory volume decrease (RVD) of cholangiocarcinoma cells, but its physiological significance is unclear due to the tumorous nature of the cells used.
