Appendicitis01:19

Appendicitis

33
Appendicitis is an acute inflammatory condition of the vermiform appendix, most commonly caused by obstruction of its lumen. The appendix is a narrow, blind-ended pouch that extends from the cecum, making it particularly prone to obstruction. Causes include fecaliths, lymphoid hyperplasia (often after viral infections), parasites, tumors, or foreign bodies. This obstruction initiates a cascade of pathological changes.Luminal Obstruction and Early InflammationAfter obstruction, normal mucosal...

Hepatic Encephalopathy01:29

Hepatic Encephalopathy

71
DefinitionHepatic encephalopathy is a reversible neurologic syndrome that results from advanced liver dysfunction or portosystemic shunting. It leads to disturbances in cognition, behavior, and motor function due to the brain’s exposure to gut-derived toxins that the liver fails to detoxify.EtiologyThis condition develops either in the setting of acute fulminant hepatitis or progressively during chronic liver disease, such as cirrhosis and portal hypertension. Portosystemic...

    Area of Science:

    • Hepatology
    • Gastroenterology
    • Surgical Oncology

    Background:

    • Rising incidence of benign liver tumors, particularly hepatic adenomas, noted in recent years.
    • Challenges in diagnosing asymptomatic liver nodules in clinical practice.
    • Need for updated knowledge on hepatic adenomas due to increased diagnosis rates.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To provide an updated review of hepatic adenomas.
    • To address the diagnostic and management dilemmas posed by increasing hepatic adenoma diagnoses.

    Main Methods:

    • Comprehensive literature review conducted.
    • Databases searched include Medline/PubMed, SciELO, Embase, and Lilacs.
    • Keywords: hepatic adenoma, surgery, medical treatment, diagnosis, pathophysiology, molecular biology.

    Main Results:

    • Diagnosis of incidental, asymptomatic liver lesions causes significant patient and physician challenges.
    • Hepatic adenomas can have benign or potentially lethal complications.
    • Resection is no longer always mandatory, with a shift towards individualized treatment.

    Conclusions:

    • Individualized treatment strategies for hepatic adenomas are increasingly important to reduce morbidity.
    • Advances in molecular biology aid in identifying lesions with unfavorable evolution.
    • Physicians must recognize cases requiring more aggressive medical management for hepatic adenomas.
