Lowest reported dose area product of 2.4 Gy∗cm for ultra-low-dose endovascular aortic aneurysm repair of a standard infrarenal aortic aneurysm.

This is a report of successful treatment of an abdominal aortic aneurysm via standard endovascular aortic repair with an ultra-low dose (ULD) of 2.4 Gy∗cm using the latest imaging software in a hybrid operating room. To the best of our knowledge, no case has yet been reported achieving a successful outcome with such ULD values to date.

Development and Validation of a Model for Postpancreatectomy Hemorrhage Risk.

Importance: Postpancreatectomy hemorrhage (PPH) due to postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is a life-threatening complication after pancreatoduodenectomy. However, there is no prediction tool for early identification of patients at high risk of late PPH.

Objective: To develop and validate a prediction model for PPH.

Minimally invasive mesohepatectomy for centrally located liver lesions-a case series.

Background: Resection of centrally located liver lesions remains a technically demanding procedure. To date, there are limited data on the effectiveness and safety of minimally invasive mesohepatectomy for benign and malignant lesions. It was therefore the objective of this study to evaluate the perioperative outcomes of minimally invasive mesohepatectomy for liver tumors at a tertiary care hospital.

Early postoperative pancreatitis following pancreaticoduodenectomy: what is clinically relevant postoperative pancreatitis?

Background/objectives: Postoperative pancreatitis (POP) has recently been shown to be the cause of pancreatic fistula (POPF) following pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD). The aim of the present study was to document the perioperative outcome associated with POP and determine potential risk factors for POP.

Methods: Patients undergoing PD between 2009 and 2015 were identified from the prospective data base at a single center.
