    Abstract Abstract: We report the case of a 25-year-old man who was undergoing follow-up for neurofibromatosis type 1. The man underwent 68Ga-DOTATOC PET/CT for a suspected well-differentiated duodenal neuroendocrine tumor. This examination did not reveal any significant uptake, whereas complementary 18F-FDG PET/CT showed moderate 18F-FDG uptake in the primary tumor as well as the adenopathy. Histology, a well-differentiated duodenal neuroendocrine tumor was confirmed, consistent with the diagnosis of somatostatinoma. Although rare, this well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumor should be kept in mind as a possible source of false-negative somatostatin receptor PET/CT findings.

    Title translation Prophylactic gastrectomy.
    Abstract One to 3% of gastric cancers are secondary to genetic predisposition, notably hereditary diffuse gastric cancers (HDGC) caused by CDH1 gene mutations. According to French recommendations, in case of CDH1 gene mutation, a prophylactic total gastrectomy should be performed between 20 and 30 years old. This gastrectomy should remove all the gastric mucosa at both extremities (duodenal and esophageal sides). Histopathological examinations of prophylactic total gastrectomies in asymptomatic CDH1-mutated patients reveal microscopic foci of diffuse-type cancer in 90 to 100% of cases. Lymph node involvement and lympho-vascular invasion are extremely rare, justifying the use of a D1-only lymphadenectomy. In the context of prophylaxis, limited lymphadenectomy and the development of minimally invasive oesogastric surgery, the minimally invasive approach might be the preferred approach, in expert centers. Surgical outcomes seem to be similar to those after gastrectomy for cancer. Prophylactic total gastrectomy is the cornerstone of CGDH management, associated with multidisciplinary follow-up and mammary surveillance in women.

    Abstract Background: Understanding the changes occurring in biological tissue during thermal ablation is at the heart of many current challenges in both therapy and medical imaging research.
    Purpose: The objective of this work is to quantitatively interpret the scattering response of human liver samples, before and after thermal ablation. We report acoustic measurements performed involving n = 21 human liver samples. Thermal ablation is achieved at temperatures between 45 and 80°C and quantification of the irreversible changes in acoustic attenuation and Backscattering Coefficient (BSC) is reported, with a particular attention to the latter.
    Methods: Both attenuation coefficient and BSCs were measured in the frequency range from 10 to 52 MHz. Scans were performed before heating and after cooling down. Attenuation coefficients were calculated using spectral difference method and BSC estimated using the reference phantom method.
    Results: Strong increases of attenuation coefficients and BSCs with heating temperature were observed. Quantitative ultrasonic parameters obtained with the polydisperse structure factor model (poly-SFM)are compared to histological observations and seen to be close to hepatocyte mean diameter (HMD).
    Conclusions: The results presented in this study provide a description of the impact of thermal ablation in human liver tissue on acoustic attenuation and the BSC. For the first time, quantitative agreement between the Effective Scatterer Diameter (ESD) estimated from BSC and HMD was shown, highlighting the important role of cellular network in the scattering response of the medium. This core result is an important step toward the determination of the nature of scattering sources in biological tissues.

    Abstract A toroidal high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) transducer was used to non-invasively treat liver tissues in vivo in a pig model. The transducer was divided into 32 concentric rings with equal surface areas operating at 2.5 MHz. First, attenuation of skin, fat, muscle and liver tissues was measured in fresh animal samples to adjust the energy delivered to the focal zone. Then, 8 animals were included in the present protocol and placed in a dorsal decubitus proclive position at an angle of 15°. The device was held by hand, and sonications were performed during apnea. Two thermal HIFU lesions were created in 40 s in each animal. The average abdominal wall thickness was 14.8 ± 1.3 mm (12.5-17.6 mm). The longest and shortest axes of the HIFU ablations were 20.9 ± 6.3 mm (14.0-33.7 mm) and 14.2 ± 5.5 mm (7.0-22.0 mm), respectively. All HIFU lesions were visible on sonograms. The correlation between the dimensions of the HIFU lesions observed on sonograms and those obtained during gross examination was r = 0.84. Creating large and fast ablations with reliable ultrasound imaging guidance in the liver using this handheld device may represent a new therapeutic option for patients with liver tumors.

    Abstract Purpose: Pelvic exenteration remains the only curative treatment for advanced pelvic malignancies. However, identification of predictive factors for successful surgical outcomes is still a controversial issue at present time.
    Methods: This retrospective study included data from all adult patients with colorectal or anal advanced pelvic malignancy registered for pelvic exenteration at the Leon Berard Cancer Center (Lyon, France). The primary endpoint was the surgical outcomes and aimed to define the predictive factors for postoperative complications. Secondary endpoints included overall survival and progression free survival in patients having experienced pelvic exenteration (PE).
    Results: Data from 141 patients with locally advanced tumor (N = 81) or recurrent malignancies (N = 60) diagnosed between May 1994 and November 2018 were collected. The median age was 63.3 years (95%CI 20.0-92.0). Malignancies included different locations (rectal: 69.5%, left colon: 17.0% and anal: 13.5%). Posterior pelvectomy was the most frequent surgery (81.6%). The median length of hospital stay was 23.3 days (95%CI 3.0-82.0). The major complication rate at 30 days was 24.8% and 38.1% at 90 days. The median overall survival was 54.5 months (95%CI 41.5-104.1) and the median PFS was 34.5 months (95%CI 19.6-NA).
    Conclusion: In selected patients, pelvic exenteration is associated with good surgical and survival outcomes.

    Abstract Background and objective: For tumors involving inferior vena cava (IVC), surgery with complete resection remains the first line treatment. Management of IVC after resection, either ligation without reconstruction or primary reconstruction, is debated. Our study aimed to evaluate type of venous reconstruction, anticoagulation management and morbidity.
    Methods: A French single center database of patients who underwent partial or total circumferencial resection of the IVC for malignant disease was analyzed. Inclusion criteria were any oncologic procedure for a retroperitoneal neoplasm requiring concomitant resection of the IVC with or without venous reconstruction with prosthesis. Exclusion criteria were surgery before year 2000. Data were descriptive and reverse Kaplan Meier was used for follow-up calculation. The endpoints were the rate of prosthetic reconstruction, the use of anticoagulation and the post-operative outcomes.
    Results: Fifty - one patients were included with a median duration of follow-up of 54.8 months. The majority of patients were men (56.9%). Median age of the population was 44.1 years. Most of the patients underwent surgery for primary testicular cancer and for sarcoma. Complete IVC resections were performed in 46 (90,2%) patients, 32 having a concomitant prosthetic replacement. Eight patients underwent aortic resection in the same operative time. Postoperative morbidity was 33.3%. Post-operative anticoagulation was done in 24 patients. At 1 month, four patients developed thrombosis in the prosthesis.
    Conclusions: IVC resections are feasible and safe. Venous reconstruction and postoperative management were planned according to the preoperative imaging and intraoperative findings. We propose a decision-tree for peri-operative management and anticoagulation.

    Abstract Chronic inflammation is an aberrantly prolonged form of a protective response to a loss of tissue homeostasis and it is involved in several steps of the carcinogenesis process. As a result, many cancers are inflammation-related. The systemic inflammatory response is associated with survival in advanced and localized cancers. Two categories of scores have been proposed to monitor the systemic inflammatory response, those derived from protein measurement and those based on counting inflammatory cells. This review aims to provide a critical appraisal of these 2 categories of surrogate markers. The 3 scale modified Glasgow prognostic score (mGPS) is based on the combination of C-reactive protein and albumin and is graded 0 to 2. It has been validated worldwide showing an independent prognostic value in patients with cancer in a variety of tumour types and tumour stages. Leukocytes-based scores are mainly neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR). Elevated NLR and/or PLR and lower LMR seem to be associated with decreased survival, but the studies about these markers are very heterogeneous. The main limit is the variety of thresholds used to dichotomize patients, so that reproducibility and reliability of leukocytes-based scores can be questioned. Hence, there is no sufficient evidence to support their use in clinical practice. Comprehensive management of patients with operable and advanced cancer should integrate the host systemic inflammatory response by calculating the mGPS. It could be a helpful tool to tailor patients' management.
