Abstract Background Repeat pulmonary metastasectomy (PM) considerably improves the prognosis of patients with pulmonary metastases of osteosarcoma. Reports have demonstrated a significantly improved prognosis in patients who have undergone repeat metastasectomy for osteosarcoma; however, there have been no reports with more than six metastasectomies. Herein, we describe the long-term survival of a patient following resection of multiple tumors and other treatments for metastatic osteosarcoma. Case presentation A 28-year-old woman underwent extensive resection and postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy for right tibial sarcoma. Over the years, she developed repeated pulmonary metastases. First, 116 metastases were removed from the bilateral lungs. After that, multiple PMs of approximately 250 tumors and other treatments for deep metastatic lesions were performed. The patient died of the underlying disease 24 years after the primary surgery. Conclusions This case report demonstrates the long-term survival benefit of a multidisciplinary treatment centered on multiple metastasectomies.

Electrical Injuries

Abstract Introduction Electrical injuries represent 0.4–3.2% of admissions to burn units and are responsible for >500 deaths per year in the United States. Approximately half occur in the workplace and are the fourth leading cause of work-related-traumatic death. The extent of injury can be drastically underestimated by total body surface area percentage (TBSA). Along with cutaneous burns, high voltage electrical injuries can lead to necrosis of muscle, bone, nervous tissue, and blood vessels. Aggressive management allows for patient survival, but at significant cost. Newer technologic advances help improve functional outcomes. Methods This case-report was conducted via retrospective chart review of the case presented. Results A 43-year-old male sustained a HVEI (>10, 000 V) after contacting an active wire while working as a linesman for an electric company. He presented after less than 15-minute transport from an outside hospital with full thickness burns and auto-amputation to all fingers on both hands and the distal third of the left hand (Images 1 and 2). There were full thickness circumferential burns to the entire left and right upper extremities with contractures, with the burns extending into the axilla, and chest wall musculature. The patient had 4th degree burns and a large wound to the left shoulder with posterior extension to the scapula, flank and back with approximately 25% TBSA (Image 3). Compartments were tense in both upper extremities. Patient was sedated and intubated to protect the airway and placed on mechanical ventilation. A femoral central line was then placed, and the patient was given pain control, continued fluid resuscitation, and blood products. Dark red colored urine from a foley catheter that was immediately identified as rhabdomyolysis induced myoglobinuria. Labs drawn demonstrated elevated troponin I, CK >40,000. BUN 18, creatinine 1.0, K+ 5.2 and phosphate 5.6. Decision was made immediately for operative intervention with emergent amputation of both upper extremities in the light of rhabdomyolysis secondary to tissue necrosis and oliguria. During the patient’s hospital course, he underwent multiple operations for further debridement with vacuum-assisted closure therapy and skin grafting of sites, as well as targeted muscle reinnervation (TMR) 6 months later at an outside hospital. Conclusions Although HVEI only account for a small percentage of burn admissions, they are associated with greater morbidity than low-voltage injuries. Patients with HVEI often incur multiple injuries, more surgical procedures, have higher rates of complications, and more long term psychological and rehabilitative difficulties. Despite the need for amputation in some of these critically ill patients, options exist that allow for them to obtain long term functional success.

Introduction: Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma of liver is a rare, low-grade neoplasm of vascular origin that has an unpredictable malignant potential. It preferentially arises in soft tissues and bones, and seldom in the liver. Biologically, it trends to be multi-focal and often unresectable. Objective: The outcome of a patient submitted to a living-related liver transplant to treat epithelioid hemangioendothelioma of the liver. Case report: The reported case involves a 39-year old female patient with an immense epithelioid hemangioendothelioma of the liver, involving segments III, IV, V, VII, and VIIl. The prognostic to any kind of treatment was considered unfavorable, and the decision of submitting her to a liver transplant was made. It was suggested a living-related liver transplant. The donor was the patient’s 36-year old brother, who donated his right liver lobe (segments V, VI, VII, VIII). The recipient´s original liver was large, presenting very solid consistence and no node evidence. The transplant itself was performed using the conventional living-related liver transplantation technique. The recovery was good, and she was discharged from hospital on the 15th postoperative day using micophenolate mofetil, tacrolimus, and corticoid. Conclusion: Liver transplantation for epithelioid hemangioendothelioma of the liver can be performed with acceptable survival rate. The living related liver transplant opens a great perspective to that group of patients presenting liver tumors and who are unfeasible to wait for an organ on a waiting list.
