Giant Colonic Lipomas: Diagnostic Accuracy, Case Series and A Review of the Literature by Akingboye AA in Current Trends in Gastroenterology and Hepatology in Lupine publishers Colonic lipomas (CL) are generally asymptomatic and are found incidentally during colonoscopy, colonography or surgery for other conditions. Symptoms often correlate with the size of the lipoma; lipomas larger than 4 cm in size become symptomatic in 75% of patients and they are described as Giant colonic lipoma (GCL). GCL may cause bleeding, obstruction, mimic large polyps, and can create a diagnostic dilemma. We review the clinical management of a series of four GCL patients. https://lupinepublishers.com/gastroenterology-hepatology-journal/fulltext/giant-colonic-lipomas-diagnostic-accuracy-case-series-and-a-review-of-the-literature.ID.000113.php  https://lupinepublishers.com/gastroenterology-hepatology-journal/pdf/CTGH.MS.ID.000113.pdf https://lupinepublishers.com/gastroent...

New Possibilities of Diagnostics of Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease by Pirogova I Yu in Current Trends in Gastroenterology and Hepatology in Lupine Publishers The aim of the study was to create a non-invasive model for diagnosing fibrosis and steatosis in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Materials and methods. The study included 183 patients with liver steatosis according to ultrasound of the liver.
