    Abstract BACKGROUND Bariatric surgery (BS) has a lower percentage of complications than other abdominal surgeries. Hemorrhage in one of the most common complications and can be life-threatening. Hereditary factor XI (FXI) deficiency is a coagulation disorder that can result in excessive bleeding requiring intervention to restore hemostasis. Risks over benefits in patients with morbid obesity with BS indication, as well as those with FXI deficiency, should be carefully evaluated. This article reports the case of an obese woman with FXI deficiency -undergoing SG. CASE REPORT A 49-year-old woman with a BMI of 51 kg/m² was diagnosed as having severe FXI deficiency during preoperative exams prior to bariatric surgery. Virus-inactivated homo-group plasma 10 ml/kg infusion was administrated 1 h before surgery, during the entire procedure, and continuing until postoperative day (POD) 4. A very low-calorie ketogenic diet (VLCKD) was proposed to the patient 4 weeks before surgery. Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy was performed with staple-line reinforcement by oversewing the seromuscular layer using continuous suture. Subcutaneous enoxaparin 4000 U.I. was administered from POD 1 until POD 25 to prevent any thromboembolic event. The patient was discharged on POD 5 in good clinical condition. CONCLUSIONS Risks of bleeding andor thromboembolic events before or after BS are increased in patient with FXI deficiency. Bariatric surgery in these patients is safe in experienced BS centers, and the risks associated with the obesity seem to exceed those of the coagulopathy and surgery. Careful preoperative counseling, extensive hematological checks, and meticulous surgery are essential to reduce BS risks. Sleeve gastrectomy oversewing the stapler line seems a reasonable choice.

    Abstract Mixed neuroendocrine non-neuroendocrine neoplasms (MiNEN) are a peculiar entity that can occur throughout the whole gastrointestinal trait, and pancreatic localization is rare. Their main characteristic is the presence of at least a neuroendocrine and an epithelial component, each accounting for at least 30% of the tumour mass. The presence of epithelial ductal component defines adeno-MiNEN. We report a case of a 59-year-old woman affected by pancreatic adeno-MiNEN with challenging diagnosis and successfully treated. A systematic literature review and pooled analysis was also performed, aiming to define the management and outcomes of pancreatic adeno-MiNEN. Out of 190 identified records, 15 studies including 28 patients affected by pancreatic-adeno-MiNEN were included in the analysis. Pancreatic adeno-MiNEN occurred mainly in males (82.8%) and at a mean age of 61.7 (range: 24-82) years. Pre-operative diagnosis was possible only in 14.2% of cases. At presentation, the majority had already advanced disease (TNM stage III (53.8%) and stage IV 19.3%). Adjuvant therapy was performed in 55% of patients, and the tumour recurrence rate was in 30% of cases. Median disease-free survival (DFS) was 12 months (range: 0-216 months) with a 5-year DFS of 16.6%, while the median overall survival (OS) was 12 months (range: 0-288 months) with a 5-year OS of 23.5%. Pancreatic adeno-MiNENs are rare; as they have very heterogenous behaviour, they are rarely diagnosed preoperatively and have poor prognosis. Treatment of localised MiNEN still relies on radical surgical resection, which seems essential to achieve a good oncological prognosis. International registry on MiNEN is necessary to improve the knowledge on this rare tumour and to improve its outcomes.
