    Abstract Intestinal malrotation (IM), a rare congenital anomaly disrupting typical embryonic rotation around the superior mesenteric artery, is exceptionally uncommon in adults, with its link to colon cancer being even rarer. This article presents a case of colonic cancer in conjunction with IM in a 63-year-old male. Image studies and intraoperative findings show signs of IM. Open resection was performed due to concerns about vascular anomalies and abnormal lymphatic drainage. The case underscores the rarity of colon cancer in a malrotated gut, highlighting the necessity of preoperative identification for precise surgical planning and emphasizing the importance of careful dissection to prevent inadvertent vascular injury.

  6. Article: Routine Use of Neck Drains Following Thyroid Operations to Prevent Complications Is No Longer Advisable.

    Abstract Background: The use of cervical drains to prevent cervical hematoma or seroma after thyroidectomy remains a controversial issue.
    Objective: Identify clinical and surgical risk factors for hematoma or seroma and evaluate the usefulness of routine use of drains following thyroid surgery.
    Material and methods: The authors conducted a retrospective multicentric study related to consecutive patients submitted to thyroid surgery in seven Portuguese hospitals between January 2018 and December 2020 (n=945). The data collected included the following parameters: age and gender of the patients, anticoagulation or anti-aggregating therapy, histological diagnoses, type of surgery, the presence or absence of postoperative drains, thyroid weight, length of hospital stay, postoperative complications, and reinterventions. In this study, surgical complications evaluated were limited to the presence of hematoma or seroma. A total of 945 patients who underwent thyroid surgery were included in the study. Twenty-seven patients (2.9%, n=27) experienced complications classified as hematomas or seromas. In the series, significant differences were observed between the two groups according to hypocoagulation or anti-aggregation status (OR=3.62; 95% CI 1.14-11.4) (p=0.001) and the nature of histological diagnosis (toxic vs. non-toxic benign disease) (OR=6.59; 95% CI 1.83-23.7). Hypocoagulation or anti-aggregation status were independently associated with a higher risk of complications. The presence of drains was associated with longer hospitalization periods (p<0.001) and not a decreased need for reintervention.
    Conclusion: Cervical hematoma or seroma are rare complications associated with both hypocoagulation and anti-aggregation therapy and with the presence of benign toxic pathology. The use of drains does not decrease the need for reintervention and is even associated with a longer length of hospital stay; therefore, their routine use should not be advised.

    Abstract GUIDEMOL is a Python computer program based on the RDKit software to process molecular structures and calculate molecular descriptors with a graphical user interface using the tkinter package. It can calculate descriptors already implemented in RDKit as well as grid representations of 3D molecular structures using the electrostatic potential or voxels. The GUIDEMOL app provides easy access to RDKit tools for chemoinformatics users with no programming skills and can be adapted to calculate other descriptors or to trigger other procedures. A command line interface (CLI) is also provided for the calculation of grid representations. The source code is available at https://github.com/jairesdesousa/guidemol.

    Abstract The book aims at presenting less known or completly unknown family archives. It proposes to question them and to analyze them under new perspectives (both from history and archival science), in order to found the "voices" if its producers - and thus to develop new research questions. It comprises three parts: "Recovering, reconstructing and (re)discovering family and personal archives"; "From a social, political and cultural history of the families to a social history of the archives"; "Public preservation and promotion of family and personal archives"

    Abstract Buerger's disease is a distal segmental nonatherosclerotic vasculopathy that involves the inferior and superior limbs of smoker males younger than 45 years old. This article aims to describe a clinical case and revise the literature about Buerger's disease. A 45-year-old smoker male repeatedly visited the emergency department for refractory pain and inflammatory signs in the right hallux. After developing ulcers in the right foot, Doppler ultrasonography revealed segmental occlusion of distal arteries of that limb. It was also observed in arteriography "corkscrew" collaterals. Autoimmune, thrombophilic and cardiovascular diseases were excluded. Analgesia, antibiotics and alprostadil were implemented. As a result, the patient stopped smoking and was submitted to minor amputation with complete healing, after which he remained asymptomatic. Buerger's disease is a diagnosis of exclusion. Therefore, smoking cessation is the most effective treatment and is crucial to prevent disease progression.
