Background: To improve outcomes for patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, a complete resection is crucial. However, evidence regarding the impact of microscopically positive surgical margins (R1) on recurrence is conflicting due to varying definitions and limited populations of patients with borderline-resectable and locally advanced pancreatic cancer. Therefore, we aimed to determine the impact of the resection margin status on recurrence and survival in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma stratified by local tumor stage.

Immunotherapy has revolutionized cancer treatment, making it a challenge to noninvasively monitor immune infiltration. Metabolic reprogramming in cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), is closely linked to immune status. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the ability of carbon-11 acetate (C-acetate) and fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (F-FDG) PET/CT findings in predicting overall survival (OS) and immune infiltration in HCC patients.

Background: Australia has the highest global incidence of keratinocyte cancer. Surgically managing keratinocyte cancers in regional Australia presents geographic and economic challenges, which necessitate cost-effective resource allocation. Previous work has outlined the cost benefit for outpatient day surgical excision of head and neck skin lesions that can be closed primarily.

(1) : Salivary gland tumors (SGTs) are a rare and diverse group of neoplasms arising in the parotid, submandibular, sublingual, and minor salivary glands distributed throughout the upper aerodigestive tract. Given the rarity and complexity of MSGTs, understanding their epidemiology across diverse populations is crucial for improving diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. (2) : A retrospective analysis involving 45 patients diagnosed with malignant salivary gland tumors and treated with curative intention between 1 July 2016 and 1 July 2021 in a tertiary academic hospital was performed.

Objective: Solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients carry a higher incidence of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC) with more aggressive features and worse outcomes compared to immunocompetent (IC) patients. The National Comprehensive Cancer Network advocates peripheral and deep en-face margin assessment such as Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) for very-high-risk cSCC. We aim to assess the efficacy of MMS in the treatment of SOT immunosuppressed head and neck (HN) cSCC patients.
