Article Synopsis
- Nonampullary duodenal adenocarcinoma (NDA) is a rare type of gastrointestinal cancer that requires complete surgical removal for potential cure and long-term survival.
- This study introduces a fully laparoscopic method for surgically removing left-side NDA while preserving critical safety measures and ensuring complete resection and lymph node removal.
- The paper aims to provide guidance and enhance surgeons' skills in performing this minimally invasive and complex surgical procedure.
Background: Venous outflow obstruction (VOO) is a known cause of graft and patient loss after pediatric liver transplantation (LT). We analyzed the incidence, risk factors, diagnosis, management, and outcome of VOO in a large, consecutive series of left lateral segment (LLS) split LT with end-to-side triangular venous anastomosis.
Methods: We evaluated data collected in our prospective databases relative to all consecutive pediatric liver transplants performed from January 2006 to December 2021.
Background: Resection of initially oligometastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) following response to first-line chemotherapy is controversial. We herein updated a previous case series to investigate the oncologic outcomes and preoperative factors that could drive the decision-making process.
Methods: This retrospective analysis was limited to patients with liver-only synchronous metastases who experienced complete regression of the metastatic component and underwent pancreatectomy between October 2008 and July 2020 at two high-volume institutions.
Introduction: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) accounts for nearly 90% of primary liver cancers, with estimates of over 1 million people affected by 2025. We aimed to explore the impacting role of an iterative surgical treatment approach in a cohort of HCC patients within the Milan criteria, associated with clinical risk factors for tumor recurrence (RHCC) after liver transplant (LT) and loco-regional therapies (LRT), as well as liver resection (LR) and/or microwave thermal ablation (MWTA).
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed our experience performed during an 8-year period between January 2013 and December 2021 in patients treated for HCC, focusing on describing the impact on preoperative end-stage liver disease severity, oncologic staging, tumor characteristics, and surgical treatments.
Introduction: The impact of surgery on nutritional status, pancreatic function, and symptoms of patients affected by chronic pancreatitis (CP) has not been unequivocally determined. This study aimed to evaluate clinical follow-up after surgery for CP in an Italian-Austrian population.
Materials And Methods: Patients operated for CP at two high-volume centers between 2000 and 2018 were analyzed.
