Abstract
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) represents a major cause of morbidity and mortality in the human population. In particular, ETEC infections affect children under the age of five from low-middle income countries. However, there is no licensed vaccine against this pathogen. ETEC vaccine development is challenging since this pathotype expresses a wide variety of antigenically diverse virulence factors whose genes can be modified due to ETEC genetic plasticity. To overcome this challenge, we propose the use of outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) isolated from two ETEC clinical strains. In these OMVs, proteomic studies revealed the presence of important immunogens, such as heat-labile toxin, colonization factors, adhesins and mucinases. Furthermore, these vesicles proved to be immunogenic after subcutaneous administration in BALB/c mice. Since ETEC is an enteropathogen, it is necessary to induce both systemic and mucosal immunity. For this purpose, the vesicles, free or encapsulated in zein nanoparticles coated with a Gantrez®-mannosamine conjugate, were administered orally. Biodistribution studies showed that the encapsulation of OMVs delayed the transit through the gut. These results were confirmed by in vivo study, in which OMV encapsulation resulted in higher levels of specific antibodies IgG2a. Further studies are needed to evaluate the protection efficacy of this vaccine approach.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: Mucinous carcinoma of the breast (MCB) is a rare histologic subtype of estrogen receptor (ER)-positive invasive carcinoma, and is characterized by tumor cells floating in pools of mucin. Despite their characteristic histology, MCBs are heterogeneous at the genetic level and no driver genetic alterations have been identified. Notably, MCBs lack the common genetic alterations found in ER-positive invasive ductal carcinomas (i.e. 16q losses, 1q gains and PIK3CA mutations). Fusion genes have been reported in breast cancer, including highly recurrent or pathognomonic fusions genes, such as the ETV6-NTRK3 and MYB/MYBL1 rearrangements in secretory carcinoma and adenoid cystic carcinoma, respectively. In this study we sought to define whether MCBs would be underpinned by a pathognomonic fusion gene.
Materials and methods: Seven pure mucinous A (hypocellular), seven pure mucinous B (hypercellular), and the mucinous component of a mixed MCB were microdissected, and subjected to RNA extraction followed by RNA-sequencing for fusion gene discovery. Read pairs supporting chimeric transcripts were identified using INTEGRATE, FusionCatcher and STARfusion. The Bayesian driver probability of the candidate fusion genes was annotated using OncoFuse. In-frame fusion gene candidates with a high driver probability were validated using orthogonal methods (RT-PCR and Sanger sequencing).
Results: Our analysis identified fusion genes in 47% (7/15) of the MCBs analyzed (29% (2/7) of type A MCBs, 57% (4/7) type B MCBs and in the mucinous component of one mixed MCB). The OAZ1-CSNK1G2 and RFC4-LPP fusion genes were identified in 20% (3/15) and 13% (2/15) of the cases, respectively. The OAZ1-CSNK1G2 chimeric transcript results in the truncation of the kinase domain of CSNK1G2, which represses ER transactivation. The RFC4-LPP chimeric transcript leads to the fusion of exons 1-3 of RFC4 and exons 5-11 of LPP, where the LIM domains of LPP are conserved. LPP is a known partner of fusion genes identified in mesenchymal tumors and reported to mediate TGF-β induced breast oncogenesis via its LIM domain. Additional validated, potentially pathogenic fusion genes identified in MCBs involved kinases, phosphatases or regulators of tyrosine kinase receptor signaling, such as IRAK3-PPM1H (n=1), GIGYF2–GFRA3 (n=1) and PHF20-FAM217B (n=1).
Conclusions: MCBs harbor fusion genes in almost half of the cases with two fusions being recurrent, involving primarily genes encoding kinases, phosphatases or receptor tyrosine kinase signaling regulators. Nevertheless, due to the lack of recurrence of a specific fusion gene, this special histologic type of breast cancer is unlikely to be underpinned by a highly recurrent/ pathognomonic pathogenic fusion gene.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is a bona fide non-obligate precursor of invasive carcinoma. Single cell sequencing studies have revealed intra-lesion genetic heterogeneity in DCIS and shown that progression to invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC) may occur through different mechanisms, including the selection of a subpopulation of tumor cells, acquisition of new genetic alterations or multi-clonal invasion. Here, we sought to investigate the genetic heterogeneity of DCIS, and to document further the clonal selection process accompanying progression to IDC.
Materials and methods: Synchronous DCIS (n=16) and IDC (n=15) samples from 14 patients were microdissected separately, and DNA samples of tumor and matched normal tissues were subjected to whole-exome sequencing (WES; n=27) or massively parallel targeted sequencing of all coding regions of ≥410 cancer-related genes (n=4). Somatic genetic alterations and mutational signatures were identified using state-of-the-art bioinformatics algorithms. PyClone was employed to define the clonal architecture of each DCIS and IDC and infer the clonal shifts accompanying progression from DCIS to IDC.
Results: DCIS were found to harbor recurrent somatic mutations affecting PIK3CA (50%), GATA3 (44%), TP53 (38%), CBFB (19%), PTEN (13%), and AKT1 (13%), which are genes known to be significantly mutated in invasive breast cancers. Despite the genomic similarities between matched DCIS and IDCs, NOTCH2 and MYC were found to be amplified solely in the IDC component of two cases, and PPM1D amplification was restricted to the DCIS component of another case. The mutational signature ascribed to aging (i.e. signature 1) was the predominant mutational signature in the DCIS and IDCs analyzed. PyClone analysis revealed that all synchronous DCIS and IDC studied here were clonally related and confirmed the previous observation that DCIS displays intra-lesion genetic heterogeneity. Evidence of clonal selection in the progression from DCIS to IDC was observed in three cases, whereby a minor DCIS subclone likely constituted the substrate for the development of IDC. In one of these cases, from a patient with a BRCA1 germline pathogenic mutation, we observed a shift from the mutational signature associated with defective homologous recombination DNA repair (i.e. signature 3) to the APOBEC-related mutational signatures (i.e. signatures 2 and 13) in the progression from DCIS to IDC.
Conclusion: Intra-lesion genetic heterogeneity is a common feature in DCIS synchronously diagnosed with IDC. Our findings corroborate the notion that DCIS is a direct non-obligate precursor of IDC, and that clonal selection in the progression of DCIS to IDC may be present in a subset of cases, but is unlikely to constitute the most frequent mechanism of progression.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: Metaplastic breast carcinomas (MBCs) and uterine carcinosarcomas (UCSs) are histologically similar, being often characterized by an admixture of adenocarcinoma areas with areas displaying sarcomatoid differentiation. We sought to investigate whether their histologic similarities would be paralleled by similar patterns of genetic alterations, and to determine whether the different histologic components of MBCs and UCSs would be clonally related.
Methods: Whole exome sequencing (WES) data from 35 MBCs previously analyzed by our group and 57 UCSs from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) study were reanalyzed. Somatic single nucleotide variants were detected with MuTect and indels with Strelka, Varscan2, Scalpel and Lancet. Copy number alterations were inferred using FACETS and functional annotation of the non-synonymous somatic mutations, amplifications or homozygous deletions was performed. We further microdissected the histologically distinct components of 11 MBCs and six UCSs and subjected each component to WES. Clonal decomposition was performed using PyClone.
Results: The most frequent somatic mutations identified in MBCs were TP53 (69%), PIK3CA (29%), FAT3 (26%) and PTEN (14%), whereas the most frequently mutated genes in UCSs were TP53 (84%), FBXW7 (35%), PIK3CA (29%), PTEN (15%) and PPP2R1A (15%). MBCs displayed a significantly higher frequency of mutations targeting FAT3 (26% vs 4%, P<0.01), FAT1 (11% vs 0%, P<0.05) and CHERP (11% vs 0%, P<0.05) than UCSs. UCSs more frequently harbored mutations affecting FBXW7 (35% vs 0%; P<0.01) and PPP2R1A (15% vs 0%, P<0.05) than MBCs. MBCs and UCSs displayed similar copy number alteration profiles, with frequent gains/ amplification of 8q, 3q and 1q, and losses of 8p. Pathway analysis based on the genes targeted by somatic genetic alterations revealed that both MBCs and UCSs were underpinned by genetic alterations resulting in activation of similar pathways, including PI3K, p53, Wnt and Notch signaling. Analysis of the separate components of MBCs and UCSs revealed that the histologically distinct components of MBCs and UCSs are clonally-related, with a median of 71% (range 26%-93%) and 78% (range 30%-93%) of somatic mutations being shared by the distinct components in MBCs and UCSs, respectively. In MBCs, clonal TP53, NOTCH3, KMT2D, FAT4 and PIK3CA mutations and several copy number alterations were shared by the histologically distinct components. Mutations private to each of the histologically distinct components included PIK3R1, CHERP and MAPK14 mutations. The carcinomatous and sarcomatous components of UCSs shared clonal TP53, PIK3CA, CDKN2A, ITGB7 and FGFR2 mutations. Private KMT2B mutations were identified in the UCS carcinomatous components. PyClone analysis revealed that the clonally-related histologically distinct components of each case harbored intra-component genetic heterogeneity coupled with parallel evolution.
Conclusions: Our findings support the contention that UCSs constitute the uterine counterpart of MBCs due to their similar histology and patterns of genetic alterations affecting the same signaling pathways (i.e. TP53, PI3K, Wnt and Notch). In each MBC and UCS analyzed here, the histologically distinct components were found to be clonally related.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: Mucinous carcinoma of the breast (MCB) is a rare histologic form of estrogen receptor (ER)-positive invasive carcinoma, accounting for up to 2% of breast cancers. MCBs are characterized by clusters of tumor cells floating in lakes of extracellular mucin, and are classified into mucinous A (paucicellular) and mucinous B (hypercellular) subtypes. Some MCBs are found admixed with invasive ductal carcinoma components, and then classified as mixed MCBs. The aims of this study were to determine the repertoire of somatic mutations of MCBs and to ascertain whether these genetic alterations are distinct from those identified in common forms of ER+/HER2- invasive breast cancers (IBCs). We also sought to determine whether the mucinous and ductal components of mixed MCBs would be clonally related.
Materials and methods: Thirty MCBs including 25 pure MCBs (n=13 mucinous A, n=12 mucinous B) and five mixed MCBs were microdissected and subjected to whole exome sequencing. Each tumor component of mixed cases was microdissected and analyzed separately. Somatic mutations, copy number alterations and mutational signatures were defined using state-of-the-art bioinformatics methods. The mutational repertoire of MCBs was compared with that of ER+/HER2- IBCs (n = 240) from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) breast cancer study.
Results: The genes most frequently mutated in MCBs were GATA3 (27%, 8/30, all frameshift mutations), KMT2C (13%, 4/30) and MAP3K1 (10%, 3/30). No significant differences were identified in single gene comparisons between mucinous A and mucinous B MCBs or between pure MCBs and the mucinous component of mixed MCBs (Fisher's exact tests, p>0.05). As compared to common forms of ER+/HER2- IBC, MCBs had a lower frequency of PIK3CA mutations (7% vs 42%, p<0.001) and a higher frequency of GATA3 mutations (27% vs 12%, p=0.04). Mucinous B MCBs had a higher frequency of KMT2C mutations than ER+/HER2- IBCs (25% vs 6%, p=0.04). Most MCBs displayed the mutational signature 1 (aging-related; 20/30, 67%), and no differences in the frequency of specific mutational signatures according to the type of MCBs were observed. Concurrent 1q gains and 16q losses, which are the hallmark genetic alterations of low-grade ER+/HER2- breast cancers, were not observed in pure MCBs, but were found in three of the five mixed MCBs analyzed. The mucinous and ductal components of all five mixed MCBs shared a median of 58% of somatic mutations (range 42%-64%), including clonal GATA3 frameshift mutations in two of them, as well as a similar pattern of copy number alterations, supporting their clonal relatedness. Additional somatic mutations found to be restricted to the ductal or mucinous components of all mixed MCBs analyzed were identified, including clonal missense mutations in PIK3C2B and PIK3R2 in the ductal component of one case, and a PIK3R5 missense mutation in the mucinous component of another case.
Conclusions: The repertoire of somatic mutations in MCBs is distinct from that of common forms of ER+/HER2- IBCs. These differences include the lack of concurrent 1q gains/16q losses, a lower frequency of PIK3CA mutations and a higher frequency of GATA3 mutations in pure MCBs.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: Breast adenoid cystic carcinoma (AdCC) is a rare type of triple-negative breast cancer associated with an indolent clinical behavior. AdCCs provide a clear example of genotypic-phenotypic correlation with the majority harboring the MYB-NFIB fusion gene. In this study, we sought to identify alternative driver genetic alterations in breast AdCCs lacking the MYB-NFIB fusion gene.
Methods: Nucleic acids obtained from four breast AdCCs lacking the MYB-NFIB fusion gene as defined by reverse transcription (RT)-PCR and/or fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) were subjected to RNA-sequencing (n=3), whole-genome (n=2) and/or targeted (n=1) massively parallel sequencing. Sequencing data were analyzed using state-of-the-art bioinformatics algorithms, and potential alternative driver genetic alterations were validated using orthogonal sequencing and molecular pathology methods.
Results: RNA-sequencing revealed the presence of MYBL1-ACTN1 or MYBL1-NFIB fusion genes in two breast AdCCs, which were validated by whole-genome sequencing and/or MYBL1 FISH analysis. Both MYBL1 fusion gene-positive cases were found to overexpress MYBL1 as defined by quantitative RT-PCR analysis. In the third MYB-NFIB-negative breast AdCC studied, a high-level MYB gene amplification coupled with overexpression of MYB at the mRNA and protein levels was identified. In the fourth breast AdCC, which expressed high levels of MYB, whole-genome and RNA-sequencing revealed no definite alternative driver alteration, however, a MYBL2 intronic mutation was found in this case, which was associated with high levels of MYBL2 mRNA expression. In this case, single sample gene set enrichment analysis revealed activation of pathways similar to those activated in AdCCs harboring the MYB-NFIB or MYBL1 fusions genes.
Conclusion: We demonstrate that in breast AdCCs lacking the MYB-NFIB fusion gene MYBL1 rearrangements and MYB amplification are likely alternative driver genetic events. Given that activation of MYB/MYBL1 and their downstream targets can be driven by the MYB-NFIB fusion gene, MYBL1 rearrangements, MYB amplification or other yet to be validated mechanisms (e.g. MYBL2 non-coding mutations), our findings further suggest that breast AdCCs constitute a convergent phenotype.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction:Adenomyoepithelioma (AME) of the breast is a rare biphasic tumor, characterized by epithelial and myoepithelial differentiation. Although AMEs have an indolent clinical course, a subset may progress to carcinoma and metastasize. We sought to define the mutational landscape of AMEs and investigate the functional impact of recurrent pathogenic mutations identified in these tumors.
Methods: Thirty-one AMEs were subjected to whole-exome sequencing (WES, n=8) or massively parallel sequencing targeting all coding regions of 410 key cancer genes and intronic and regulatory regions of selected genes (n=23). Somatic genetic alterations were defined using state-of-the-art bioinformatics algorithms. In an additional set of 12 AMEs, Sanger sequencing analysis of HRAS, PIK3CA and AKT1 was performed. Non-tumorigenic estrogen receptor (ER)-negative mammary epithelial cells (i.e. MCF10A, MCF10A with a PIK3CA H1047R mutation knock-in and MCF12A) were utilized for functional studies using both conventional monolayer and three-dimensional (3D) culture assays.
Results: 27 (63%) and 16 (37%) AMEs were ER-positive and ER-negative, respectively. ER-negativity was significantly associated with histologic features predictive of a more aggressive behavior, with a higher number of mutations and copy number alterations, and with a distinct mutational profile as compared to ER-positive AMEs. Of the 27 ER-positive AMEs, 12 cases (44%) harbored PIK3CA hotspot mutations, and 5 PIK3CA wild-type cases displayed E17K AKT1 hotspot mutations. By contrast, of the 16 ER-negative AMEs, 9 (56%), 9 (56%) and 3 (19%) harbored HRAS, PIK3CA (mostly E545K and H1047R hotspots) and PIK3R1 mutations, respectively. Strikingly, all HRAS mutations were restricted to ER-negative AMEs, affected the hotspot codon Q61 (Q61R/K), and all but one co-occurred with PIK3CA or PIK3R1 mutations. In addition, HRAS Q61 hotspot mutations were significantly associated with necrosis (p=0.01) and high mitotic rates (p=0.03). CDKN2A homozygous deletions were also detected only in ER-negative AMEs (19%) and found to be significantly associated with progression to carcinoma (p=0.001). Forced expression of HRAS Q61R in MCF10A and MCF12A cells resulted in i) increased proliferation and transformation, ii) an irregular growth pattern in 3D organotypic cell cultures, iii) partial loss of the epithelial phenotype, and iv) acquisition of myoepithelial differentiation, which was more overt in PIK3CA-mutant MCF10A cells. HRAS Q61Rinduced hyperactivation of the PI3K pathway, but both PI3K and MAPK pathways likely contributed to the RAS-mediated proliferation, which was completely arrested by combined AKT and MEK inhibition.
Conclusion: AMEs are phenotypically and genetically heterogeneous. Whilst pathogenic mutations in PI3K pathway-related genes occur across the spectrum of lesions, HRAS Q61 hotspot mutations are restricted to ER-negative AMEs. Our genomic and functional analyses indicate that HRAS Q61 mutations are driver events in the pathogenesis of ER-negative AMEs and, in conjunction with mutant PIK3CA, may lead to the acquisition of myoepithelial differentiation in breast epithelial cells.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: The 21-gene recurrence score (RS) estimates the likelihood of distant recurrence and the benefit from chemotherapy in patients with early-stage node-negative, estrogen receptor (ER)-positive, HER2-negative breast carcinoma. The use of the assay resulted in a substantial reduction in adjuvant chemotherapy usage. In this study, we reviewed the outcome of patients with node-negative, ER+/HER2- breast cancer and low recurrence score treated at our center to further verify the prognostic value of the assay.
Design: We identified breast cancer patients treated at our center between 09/2008 and 08/2013 with ER-positive, HER2-negative breast cancer and known RS. We reviewed clinicopathological characteristics, RS, treatment and outcome data. The Institutional Review Board approved the study.
Results: We identified 1406 consecutive patients with early stage node negative ER+/HER2- breast cancer and low RS [RS 0-10: 510 (36%), RS 11-17: 896 (64%)] in the study period. The median age at breast cancer diagnosis was 56 years (range 22-90). Sixty-three (4%) patients were <40 years old at breast cancer diagnosis. A total of 1362 (97%) patients received endocrine therapy, and 170 (12%) received chemotherapy. The median follow up time was 46 months (range 1-85). Six (0.4%) of the 1406 patients developed biopsy proven distant metastases within 5 years of breast cancer diagnosis, 5 of which were in the RS 11-17 group (Table 1). Three of the 5 patients with RS 11-17 and distant metastases were younger than 40 years old at breast cancer diagnosis. In the RS 11-17 group, the absolute incidence of distant metastases among patients with breast cancer diagnosed at age younger than 40 years old is 7.1% (3/42), whereas the absolute incidence of distant metastases among patients ≥40 years is 0.2% (2/854).
Conclusion: Our results suggest that young age (<40 years old) might be a negative prognostic factor even in patients with low RS. Analysis of data from other studies is necessary to further validate this observation.

Abstract
Abstract
Introduction: Metaplastic breast carcinoma (MBC) is a rare histologic type of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), characterized by the presence of cells displaying squamous and/or mesenchymal differentiation. The transcriptomic profiles of MBCs have been reported to vary according to the type of metaplastic elements. The somatic genetic alterations that underpin this breast cancer subtype remain to be fully characterized. Here we sought to define the genomic landscape of MBCs, whether different subtypes of MBC would be driven by distinct constellations of genetic alterations, and to investigate functionally the impact of mutations affecting WNT pathway genes using non-malignant breast epithelial cells.
Methods: Thirty-five MBCs were retrieved from the pathology department of the authors' institutions and classified into the MBC histologic subtypes. All but one of the MBCs were of triple-negative phenotype. DNA was extracted from microdissected tumor-normal pairs and subjected to whole-exome sequencing. Somatic genetic alterations were identified using state-of-the-art bioinformatics algorithms. The genomic profiles of MBCs were compared to those of 69 common type TNBCs from The Cancer Genome Atlas. Overall mutation rates were compared using the Mann Whitney U test, and the frequency of mutations in each gene was compared using Fisher's exact test. RNA was extracted from a subset of MBCs and subjected to WNT signaling pathway activation analysis with the RT2 Profiler PCR Array. Triple-negative non-malignant breast epithelial cells (MCF10A and MCF12A) and cancer cell lines were utilized for 2D and 3D functional studies.
Results: Whole-exome analysis revealed that MBCs displayed a median of 103 (15-344) somatic mutations, which did not differ from the median number of somatic mutations in common type TNBCs (76, range 14-233). The most frequent recurrently mutated cancer genes included TP53 (69%) and PIK3CA (29%). MBCs more frequently harbored mutations in PI3K pathway genes than common type TNBCs (57% vs 22%, P<0.05), including mutations affecting PIK3CA (29% vs 7%), PIK3R1 (11% vs 0) and PTEN (11% vs 1%). MBCs also more frequently harbored mutations affecting WNT signaling pathway genes (46% vs 26%, P<0.05), including AXIN1 (6% vs 1%), WNT5A (6% vs 0) and APC (3% vs 0). MBC subtype analysis revealed that PIK3CA mutations were only detected in non-chondroid MBCs (53% vs 0), CHERP mutations were only found in chondroid MBCs (25% vs 0), whereas USP5 mutations only found in squamous MBCs (33% vs 0). MBCs with somatic mutations in WNT pathway genes had significantly higher WNT pathway activation than MBCs lacking mutations in these genes (P=0.0244). Consistent with the mesenchymal phenotype frequently exhibited by MBCs, in vitro experiments provided functional evidence that aberrant WNT pathway activation induces an epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) phenotype, with downregulation of epithelial markers and upregulation of EMT transcriptional inducers.
Conclusions: MBCs are significantly enriched for mutations affecting PI3K and WNT pathways, highlighting the importance of the dysregulation of the WNT pathway in MBC carcinogenesis. Moreover, our findings suggest that specific mutations are significantly associated with distinct histologic subtypes of MBCs.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION some clinical, anatomo-pathological, and technical factors influence the correct healing of intestinal suture following an intestinal resection. One of the most influential factors is patient nutritional status. OBJECTIVES to evaluate the influence of malnutrition on the viability of primary intestinal anastomosis by the analysis of collagen I deposition. METHODS 40 Wistar rats, radioimmunoassay material. We used 2 groups of rats, 20 animals in each group: a control group (A) and a "malnutrition" group (B). RESULTS there was a decrease in PINP (procollagen) deposition in the colon of group B rats as compared to the colon of group A (0.3620 and 0.4340 mg/g respectively) (p = 0.032). There is an increase in ICTP (carboxyterminal telopeptide) in the colon of group B (0.9545 as against 0.8460 mg/g in group A) (p = 0.875). In anastomoses of group B there was a decrease in PINP synthesis as compared to group A (0.376 and 0.468 mg/g respectively, p = 0.002). As regards ICTP, there was an increase in group B (p = 0.330). In relation to the control group no differences were observed in ICTP increases in group B (p = 1). CONCLUSIONS colonic anastomosis increases the levels of PINP and ICTP in healed tissue (p = 0.000); malnutrition reduces collagenization in anastomoses (p = 0.000).

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The incidence of orthotopic liver retransplantation (re-OLT) ranges from 6% to 11%. The most frequent causes of early re-OLT are allograft failure, uncontrolled acute rejection, and vascular complications. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective study of 512 orthotopic liver transplants (OLTs) in 482 patients over 15 years. RESULTS The incidence of re-OLT was 6.6%, with a higher percentage of men requiring re-OLT than first-time OLT (75.0% vs 63.0%, P < .05). The reasons for re-OLT were thrombosis 21.7%, aneurysm 6.5%, stenosis 3.2%, primary nonfunction (PNF) 21.7%, and chronic rejection or recurrence of the initial disease 40.4%. Complications included PNF (22.0%), acute renal failure (65.6%), postoperative infection (87.5%), and adult respiratory distress syndrome (9.4%; P < .05). No differences were seen in the incidence of septicemia or postoperative hemorrhage. The average survival was much lower in re-OLT (21.8 days) compared with OLT (194.5 days; P < .05). The mortality rates in re-OLT were 100% for primary biliary cirrhosis, 85.7% for HCV, 50% for alcoholic cirrhosis, and 20% for HBV. A direct association between the Model for End-stage Liver Disease (MELD) score and the number of complications was present. DISCUSSION There was a greater requirement for re-OLT in men and those patients transplanted due to hepatitis B virus cirrhosis and fulminant hepatitis (P < .05). The re-OLT patients had no greater incidence of sepsis compared with the OLT patients, although they did have a greater incidence of primary graft dysfunction, acute renal failure, adult respiratory distress syndrome, and postoperative infection (P < .05). The MELD was a good parameter for predicting graft evolution. Re-OLT in patients with primary biliary cirrhosis and hepatitis C virus was associated with a high degree of mortality.

Abstract
Hepatocellular carcinoma is the most prevalent primary hepatic tumor. Early diagnosis and staging is of paramount importance to obtain favorable survivals. So far, there is no general agreement on the most appropriate imaging technique to detect the tumor for correlation between pretransplant radiologic and pathologic size of the tumor, which remains inadequate. With greater clinical experience and increasing accuracy of imaging methods, magnetic resonance (MR) appears to be the most accurate method, yielding a correlation in 67% of cases.

Abstract
Acute graft rejection after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) is associated with leukocyte infiltration of the graft. Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) is a beta-chemokine involved in the attraction and accumulation of mononuclear granulocytes toward sites of inflammation. A biallelic polymorphism (G/A) at position -2518 of the MCP-1 gene has been described. Cells obtained from individuals with the GG or AG genotypes have been found to produce more MCP-1 than those obtained from individuals with the AA genotype. The goal of this study was to assess the possible association between this polymorphism and susceptibility to acute graft rejection after OLT. One hundred fifty Caucasian liver transplant recipients from the South of Spain underwent genotyping using a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification followed by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP). No significant differences were observed when patients with versus without acute rejection episodes were compared for the distribution of -2518 MCP-1 genotypes. The present study supports the lack of involvement of polymorphism at position -2518 (A/G) of the MCP-1 gene on the susceptibility to acute allograft rejection among OLT recipients.

Abstract
The most frequent etiology of visceral artery aneurysms is arteriosclerosis, but vascular manipulation during hepatic transplantation may also cause a mycotic pseudoaneurysm. Treatment with embolization, stents or percutaneous thrombin injection have been recommended but surgical revascularization is indicated when interventional techniques fail. A 43-year-old man with hepatitis C virus cirrhosis who underwent orthotopic liver transplantation from a cadaveric donor was treated with cyclosporine, mycophenolate, and steroids and was discharged from hospital at 35 days. Two months later he was readmitted with a febrile syndrome. Abdominal computed tomography showed necrosis of hepatic segments IV, V, and VI. Magnetic resonance imaging and angiography revealed partial thrombosis of the hepatic artery and stenosis of the portal anastomosis secondary to an aneurysm of the hepatic artery. A few hours after the radiological diagnosis, the patient suffered a bout of upper gastrointestinal bleeding and shock. Emergency surgery revealed a mycotic pseudoaneurysm of the common hepatic artery, which had ruptured into the bile tract with hemobilia. The liver graft was removed because of severe necrosis of the right liver. The patient died awaiting a new liver transplantation.
