    Title translation Gastrointestinal stromal tumors: case reports and review of the literature.
    Abstract The Authors describe four cases of gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GIST) two of them were localized in the stomach, the others in the ileum. GIST are neoplasms of mesenchymal origin which develop inside the wall of the digestive tract. The most frequent site is the stomach, followed by the small bowel; less commonly these tumors can affect the oesophagus, the colon and the rectum. GIST originate from precursors of the interstitial cells of Cajal, which are localized in the gastro-intestinal wall and are involved in the regulation of the peristalsis. The treatment is surgical resection. For advanced disease there is a new interesting treatment based on the imatinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor.

    Title translation Inguinal hernia repair: an experimental study on mesh migration with the tension-free suturless technique. 10 year follow-up.
    Abstract Aim: Can the tension-free suturless technique, used in the surgical treatment of inguinal hernia, to be the gold standard for treatment of inguinal hernia?
    Methods: The tension-free suturless technique is often criticized as a fundamental principle: do not have suture. The criticism stems from concern that the mesh can migrate and cause damage to important anatomical structures. We conducted a study on the mobility of prosthesis on 33 patients, by using titanium clips that we have fixed on the meshes corner, X-rays over time, done at last, a follow-up of ten years.
    Results: The study shows that the prosthesis moves together with the anatomical space in which there is the forces present in the inguinal canal: gravity, intra-abdominal pressure, reactive force ascending gait. Across thirty-three patients have relapsed in the first six months and two recurrences in ten years, in the reconstitution of the neo-orifice, through which passes the cord. In the remaining patients the mesh were relocated upward and medially (as identified by the clips of the increase of 10-15%).
    Conclusion: Our study shows that the mesh migrates upwards and medially. Migration is more or less, depending on the patient's age and quality of its tissue. Fix the prosthesis is good practice to secure at the flag on the inguinal ligament leads to two advantages: not to frustrate the principle tension-free, since the fixed prosthesis on one side does not create moments of tension, and prevent the prosthesis returns to the opening road to relapse.

    Title translation Familial adenomatous polyposis: review of the literature and report of 3 cases.
    Abstract The Authors describe three cases of Familial Adenomatous Polyposis, (FAP), in patients of the same family, mother and two daughters, with different stages of the disease. Familial adenomatous polyposis is a mendelian dominant inherited syndrome with an incidence of 1:11,000, caused by an alteration of APC gene, which causes multiple disorders of the development ecto-, endo- and mesoderma. The syndrome is characterized by the presence of adenomatous polyps in the gastroenteric tract, mostly in colon-rectum and duodenum with demonstrated adenoma-carcinoma sequence. In the family here reported a case of familial adenomatous polyposis at the adenomatous stage and two of cancer of colon-rectum are registered. In the first case surgery had a preventive aim, and ileo-rectal anastomosis was performed; in the other two cases the treatment was Miles operation with radical intention.

    Title translation Primary adenocarcinoma of the appendix. Case report and review of the literature.
    Abstract A rare case of primary adenocarcinoma of the vermiform appendix (less than 250 cases described in the literature) in a 36 year-old female patient presenting signs and symptoms of an acute appendicitis is reported. Adeno-carcinoma of the vermiform appendix is a rare neoplasm of the gastrointestinal tract with an incidence of about 0,01-0,2%. Usually the diagnosis of adenocarcinoma of the vermiform appendix is difficult because symptoms and signs are not pathognomonic. In the case described, the diagnosis was intra and postoperative and confirmed by the pathological examination of the surgical specimens. At laparotomy, performed under suspicion of an acute appendicitis, disseminated disease was discovered, characterized by the involvement of the two ovaries, the left colon, the cecum, the vermiform appendix, with a peritoneal carcinosis and a hydroureteronephrosis. According to the dissemination of the disease, the surgical treatment was right hemicolectomy, anterior resection of left colon, bilateral oophorectomy and omentectomy. The post-operative course was regular. Adjuvant therapy was performed for 6 cycles, with 5FU and oxaliplatinum. The patient is still alive after 6 months and there is no sign of progression of the disease. A mild left hydroureteronephrosis is persistent.

    Title translation Acute abdomen from ruptured adrenal pheochromocytoma: case report.
    Abstract The pheochromocytoma is a very rare neoplasm, which originates in 98% of cases in the adrenal medulla; it is often bilateral in familial syndromes. It is more frequent in syndromes like MEN2, von Hippel-Lindau disease, and neuofribromatosis type 1. In this article the Authors report a case of a young woman with a large adrenal pheochromocytoma, that presented by an acute abdomen; the treatment was explorative laparotomy with unilateral adrenalectomy. Therapy of this tumour is founded on surgery, plus chemiotherapy radiotherapy or treatment with 131I-MIBG (iodine-131-metaiodobenzylguanidine in malignant cases (10%). According with the absence of a correlation between pathological findings and clinical behaviour, a long-term follow up is indispensable.

    Title translation Appendiceal carcinoid: report of 3 clinical cases and review of the literature.
    Abstract The Authors report three cases of appendiceal carcinoids, found during appendectomy for acute appendicitis during the last 15 years. Appendiceal carcinoid is a rare neoplasm, more frequent in females age ranging between 20 and 29 years. Lack of symptoms explains the occasional diagnosis of this disease. The prognosis is related mostly to the size of the tumor, local and lymphatic invasion, presence of metastases, localization inside the appendix, histological type and age of the patient. Therapy is mainly surgical and consists of appendectomy and right colectomy according to different criteria which are being discussed in this article.

    Title translation Gastrointestinal stromal tumors: report of a clinical case and review of the literature.
    Abstract In this case report, the Authors describe a case of stromal gastric tumour, in a male 65 years old, who presented gastrointestinal bleeding. Gastro-Intestinal Stromal Tumors (GISTs) are neoplasm with an incidence of 1-3 per cent of the digestive tract malignant neoplasms. The rarity of this disease, its visceral wall localization, the histopathological characteristics make the diagnosis difficult. Moreover there is no correlation between the behaviour of these neoplasms and the histologic features. Surgery represents the main treatment for GISTs based on complete resection, followed by a long-term follow-up. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy don't seem to play a crucial role in the treatment of these neoplasms. A new treatment with inhibitors of the tyrosinekinase is under discussion. Follow-up represents the only way to evaluate the effective behaviour of the disease, due to the lack of classic prognostic factors impact.

    Title translation Retroperitoneal tumors: a case of liposarcoma.
    Abstract The Authors report a case of retroperitoneal sarcoma, in the histological subtype "liposarcoma", occasionally diagnosed in a 57 year old woman, who presented aspecific symptoms, characterized by dry cough, vomiting and chest pain. Chest TC showed a neoplasm of the retroperitoneum, close to liver, right colon, duodenum and right kidney. The arteriography of the right renal artery showed a neovascolarization inside the mass. A surgical resection was performed. The histological examination confirmed the diagnosis of liposarcoma. Liposarcomas account for 30% of the retroperitoneal soft tissue sarcomas; symptoms and diagnosis are late and the surgical resection of primary neoplasm, metastases and local recurrences representing the only therapeutic choice.

    Title translation Primary gastric lymphoma: a case report.
    Abstract In this case report the Authors describe a case of primary gastric lymphoma in a 62 years old patient who presented with dyspepsia and weigh loss. Primary gastric lymphoma is a rare neoplasm which of 1-10% of the malignant gastric neoplasms in the gastroenteric tract. The clinic presentation is usually aspecific. The infection by H. pylori is a factor of predisposition for this kind of disease. The diagnostic pathway consists in x-ray examination of the gastrointestinal tract, the endoscopy with biopsies, the computerized tomography and the echo-endoscopy. However obtaining a preoperative diagnosis is often difficult because of the submucosal localization of the lymphoma. There is not a common strategy among the Authors for the treatment of the disease, which can be surgical, radiotherapic or chemotherapic.
