The Modified Sublay Technique for the Management of Major Subcostal Incisional Hernia: Long-Term Follow-up Results of 37 Consecutive Patients.

Background: The aims of this study were to present the concept of original technique in the management of major incisional subcostal hernias and to evaluate short- and long-term outcome.

Method: Between January 2010 and January 2020, 280 patients underwent hernia repair surgery for incisional lateral abdominal hernia at Clinic for Digestive Surgery, Clinical Center of Serbia. Among them, 37 patients underwent the modified sublay technique for major incisional subcostal hernia with minimal hernia defect surface of 100 cm2 or greater or minimal hernia defect width or height of 10 cm or greater.

Prognostic Significance of , and for Early Recurrence in Patients with Colorectal Liver Metastasis After Liver Resection.

Purpose: There are limited data on expression of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) markers in patients with colorectal liver metastases (CRLM). The study aim was to evaluate the expression and prognostic significance of E-cadherin (), fibronectin () and vimentin () in patients with CRLM after curative-intent liver resection.

Patients And Methods: Thirty patients with CRLM managed by curative-intent liver resection were included in this prospective pilot study.

Pentoxifylline with metformin treatment improves biochemical parameters in patients with nonalcoholic steatohepatitis.

Background: The progression of the nonalcoholic fatty liver disease to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) is multifactorial, and there is still a lack of approved medications for its treatment. The study aimed to evaluate the impact of combined treatment with Pentoxifylline and Metformin on biochemical parameters in patients with Nash. Setting: Outpatient hepatology clinic.

Impact of diseased liver parenchyma on perioperative outcome among patients with hepatocellular carcinoma undergoing hepatectomy: Experience from a developing country.

Introduction: Limited data can be found about surgical outcome of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) arising in non-diseased liver. The study aim was to compare short- and long-term outcomes among HCC patients with normal and diseased liver parenchyma, undergoing potentially curative liver resection in a developing country.

Materials And Methods: From November 2001 until January 2017, 228 patients with HCC underwent curative-intent hepatectomy at the University Clinic for Digestive Surgery.

Hepatocellular carcinoma: From clinical practice to evidence-based treatment protocols.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the major malignant diseases in many healthcare systems. The growing number of new cases diagnosed each year is nearly equal to the number of deaths from this cancer. Worldwide, HCC is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths, as it is the fifth most common cancer and the third most important cause of cancer related death in men.
