A pancreatic adenocarcinoma mimicking hepatoid carcinoma of uncertain histogenesis: A case report and literature review
Oncol Lett. 2023 Aug 28;26(4):442. doi: 10.3892/ol.2023.14029. eCollection 2023 Oct.ABSTRACTIn rare cases, metastatic adenocarcinomas of different origin may exhibit the features of hepatoid carcinoma (HC), a rare malignant epithelial tumor, most commonly occurring in the ovaries and stomach, as well as in the pancreas and biliary ducts. A case of a 72-year-old female patient who developed a highly aggressive, poorly differentiated pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma with peritoneal carcinomatosis, demonstrating hepatoid differentiation upon conventional hematoxylin and eosin staining is reported in the present study. The pat...

Significant CA 19-9 Elevation in IgG4-Related Autoimmune Pancreatitis - A Diagnostic Dilemma
We describe the case of a 65-year-old male with history of IgG4-RD, presenting with jaundice and abdominal pain. He was found to have a pancreatic mass with significantly elevated IgG4 162 (2-96 mg/dL and CA19-9 levels 2830 (0-35 U/ml). Patient underwent ERCP and biopsy, which ruled out pancreatic cancer and cholangiocarcinoma. He was diagnosed with IgG4-RD autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) and sclerosing cholangitis. Treatment with steroids and rituximab resulted in significant improvement in the bilirubin and a dramatic decrease in CA19-9 levels.PMID:37714269 | DOI:10.1016/j.amjms.2023.09.016

Association of Race/Ethnicity, Persistent Poverty, and Opioid Access Among Patients with Gastrointestinal Cancer Near the End of Life
CONCLUSIONS: Race/ethnicity-based disparities in EOL pain management persist with SDoH-based variations in EOL opioid use. In particular, PP impacted EOL opioid access and utilization.PMID:37667099 | DOI:10.1245/s10434-023-14218-4

Impact of short-course palliative radiotherapy on pancreatic cancer-related pain: Prospective phase II non-randomized PAINPANC trial
CONCLUSIONS: Short-course palliative radiotherapy for pancreatic cancer-related pain was associated with rapid, clinically relevant reduction in pain severity, and clinically relevant improvement in global QoL, with mostly mild toxicity.PMID:37647972 | DOI:10.1016/j.ijrobp.2023.08.055

The Causal Relationship of Anti-Cancer Effect with Physical Activity Evinced by the Consistent Anti-Cancer Effect of the Ou MC Decrescendo Phenomenon
Asian Pac J Cancer Prev. 2023 Aug 1;24(8):2869-2874. doi: 10.31557/APJCP.2023.24.8.2869.ABSTRACTA causal relationship between physical activity and cancer prevention has not been firmly established in the medical literature. The Ou MC decrescendo phenomenon treatment (OuDPt) is a self-administered protocol in which placing the contralateral hand on or near the affected area of the body produces a zone of decreased pain or inflammation. OuDPt has also been shown to elicit an anti-cancer effect that consistently induces tumor regression in several cancer types, including uterine, ovarian, and pancreatic cancer, with document...

Analysis of the results of high-intensity focused ultrasound for patients with advanced pancreatic cancer
CONCLUSION: HIFU is safe and effective for pancreatic cancer treatment, and has the potential to become an important supplement for the treatment of advanced pancreatic cancer. This approach needs to be further verified by multi-center and large-sample studies.PMID:37641497 | DOI:10.1080/02656736.2023.2250586
