From 1989 to Apr. 1997, 21 patients were admitted for gastrointestinal bleeding caused by binary angiodeformity. Diagnosis was made in 16 out of 18 undergoing selective celiac angiography with the occuracy rate of 88. 9%. Endoscopy found the deformity in 6 out of 14 (42. 8%). Bleeding stopped in 9 of 11 treated conservatively. Surgery was successful in all 9 cases,and endoscopic cautery successfully stopped the bleeding in the remaining one. The authors came to the conclusion that selective celiac angiography was most useful for the diagnosis. Drug therapy and endoscopic cautery effect only temporary hematostasis.

This report described one case of applying liver transplantation (LT) in for liver metastases of unresectable rectal cancer.The recipient had multiple intrahepatic metastases upon a diagnosis of colorectal cancer.FOLFOX chemotherapy plus bevacizumab targeted therapy were offered after a resection of primary lesion.Two years later, intrahepatic metastases expanded while no extrahepatic metastasis or in situ recurrence was noted.After LT, tacrolimus + sirolimus immunosuppression regimen and chemotherapy of rhatitrexed were prescribed.Tumor recurred at 3 years after LT and the survival time was 6 years.For patients with unresectable liver metastases of colorectal cancer, LT in the absence of orthotopic recurrence and other distant metastases may improve patient quality-of-life and achieve better outcomes.
