Since 1980 operations for combined injuries of the liver and spleen have been made on 57 children aged from 5 through 16 years. Autografting of splenic tissue into the liver wound was performed in 17 (29.8%) patients using an original technique developed in experiments. The novelty of the suggested technique is that autografting of splenic tissue into the liver wound was followed by fixing the fragments with Pi-like stitches through the spleen transplant capsule. It ensures the impermeability of the liver wound, adequate hemostasis without applying artificial hemostatic materials and helps to avoid alloplastic materials for additional drainage of the subhepatic space, provides a direct physiological contact between the splenoid and liver tissue that is effective for prevention of hyposplenism following spleenectomy.

Notably, a series of such predation events have been reported from South Africa over the last decade, with killer whales specifically targeting sharks' liver. However, observations of these interactions are rare, and knowledge of their frequency across the world's oceans remains limited.

Background: Intraoperative and postoperative biliary injuries remain significant complications of laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE). Indocyanine green (ICG) has been shown to significantly reduce injuries caused by intraoperative operational errors. We found that the J-tube can reduce postoperative strictures and injuries to the common bile duct.

Tumor heterogeneity plays a pivotal role in tumor progression and resistance to clinical treatment. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) enables us to explore heterogeneity within a cell population and identify rare cell types, thereby improving our design of targeted therapeutic strategies. Here, we use a pan-cancer and pan-tissue single-cell transcriptional landscape to reveal heterogeneous expression patterns within malignant cells, precancerous cells, as well as cancer-associated stromal and endothelial cells.

Background: The initial assessment of trauma is a time-consuming and challenging task. The purpose of this research is to examine the diagnostic effectiveness and usefulness of machine learning models paired with radiomics features to identify blunt traumatic liver injury in abdominal computed tomography (CT) images.
Materials And Methods: In this study, 600 CT scan images of people with mild and severe liver damage due to trauma and healthy people were collected from the Kaggle dataset.
