We report a case in which recurrent pancreatic metastasis of renal cell carcinoma( RCC) in the remnant pancreas was resected 6 years after subtotal stomach-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy (SSPPD). A 74-year-old man underwent right nephrectomy for RCC in 1991, left partial nephrectomy for left renal RCC metastasis in 1996, and SSPPD for pancreatic RCC metastasis in 2007. In November 2012, he was referred to our hospital with a tumor in the remnant pancreas, as seen on abdominal computed tomography (CT). Partial pancreatectomy for the recurrent metastatic RCC in the remnant pancreas was performed in January 2013. The tumor was histologically diagnosed as metastasis from clear cell RCC in the remnant pancreas. The postoperative course was uneventful, and the blood glucose level after surgery was well controlled using an oral hypoglycemic agent.

Background: Intra-pancreatic fat deposition (IPFD) is linked to metabolic and pancreatic diseases. MRI, while precise, is not cost-effective for routine IPFD screening, highlighting the need for accessible biomarkers. This study aims to analyze the relationships among serum lipid profiles, lipoprotein ratios, and IPFD, with a focus on sex differences.

Background/aim: To investigate risk factors of late acute remnant pancreatitis after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD), we propose the use of a suturing pitch calculated based on the diameter of the main pancreatic duct and the number of sutures used in the pancreatic duct-to-mucosa anastomosis. This study aimed to determine whether the suturing pitch can predict late acute pancreatitis following PD.
Patients And Methods: This study included 142 patients who underwent elective PD.

: Post-hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF) is a serious complication following hepatic resection for Klatskin tumors, significantly affecting patient prognosis. Identifying reliable preoperative and early postoperative predictors of PHLF can help optimize patient outcomes and guide surgical planning. : We conducted a retrospective review of 34 patients who underwent hemi-hepatectomy for extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma at Kosin University Gospel Hospital between April 2019 and April 2024, and at Chonnam National University Hwasun Hospital between September 2017 and April 2024.

Article Synopsis
- A retrospective study evaluated the safety and effectiveness of a modified technique for managing pancreatic remnants during laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy (LDP) in 63 patients at a hospital in Ningbo University.
- Patients were divided into two groups: one using the new gastric coverage technique and the other a standard stapler-and-hand-sewn method for closing the pancreatic remnant.
- The results showed the experimental group had significantly lower rates of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) compared to the control group, indicating the modified technique may be more effective in reducing complications without affecting other surgical parameters.

Article Synopsis
- Focal pancreatic parenchymal atrophy (FPPA) and upstream pancreatic atrophy (UPA) may signal early pancreatic cancer, complicating surgery decisions due to tumor spread alongside the main pancreatic duct.
- A study involving 32 patients revealed that those with FPPA or UPA had significantly longer cancer extensions compared to patients without atrophy, emphasizing the importance of preoperative imaging.
- The findings suggest that identifying FPPA and UPA can help predict cancer spread and guide more effective surgical resection strategies in early pancreatic cancer cases.
