What is Stewart Treves syndrome
cutaneous angiosarcoma from chronic lymphedema
Highly malignant. Can occur 10 years after mastectomy.
Wide local excision.
159

hemicolectomy, open chole, LE revasc,
Major: AM meds, 100 hydrocortisone, 50q8 w/ taper

160
Types of vagotomy
Truncal vagotomy - just above GE junction
Selective vagotomy- preserve nerves to liver, pancreas, small intestine
Highly selective vagotomy - spares nerves of Laterjet. Does not need drainage procedure.
161
Colonoscopy follow up intervals
Normal, low risk : 10 years
Personal hx of cancer, hx of adenomatous polyp, 1st degree relative w/ cancer: 5 years
large sessile polyp, removed piecemeal, malignant adenoma, multiple adenomas, or incomplete scope: repeat within 6 months
After cancer resection: H&P w/ CEA q3-6 months for 3 years, annual CTCAP for 3 years, colonoscopy within 1 year and then q5 years
162
Pagets disease of the anus
intractable pruritus
Needs full workup with Cscope, CTCAP to look for underlying malignancy
Tx: wide local excision or APR if underlying malignancy is found
163
Indications for CEA
Symptomatic disease >70%
Asymptomatic disease >80% (actually >60 on studies)
164
Indications to resect IPMN
All main duct
>30mm in size or growing
thickened wall or mural nodule
duct dilation >10mm
pancreatitis
intraductal mucin
change in duct caliber w. distal atrophy
165
GI peptides
Gastrin- from G cells, promotes histamine release from enterochromaffinlike cells which then promote acid release from parietal cells.
Somatostatin- from D cells, stops ECL and parietal cells.
166
Pancreatic cystic neoplasms
pseudocyst- benign, high amylase, low CEA
serous cystadenoma- benign, low amylase, low CEA
mucinous cystic neoplasm- low amylase, high CEA, distal pancreatectomy
IPMN- high CEA, high amylase
167
Pulm function testing for lobectomy
DLCO
FEV1
Predicted postop FEV1 needed for lobectomy
DLCO >60%
FEV1 >60
Predicted postop FEV1 >35-40%
168
Treatment of May-thurner syndrome
iliofemoral DVT
anticoagulation and endovascular thrombolysis and iliac vein stenting
