Background: Associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (ALPPS) can induce accelerated regeneration of future liver remnant (FLR) and effectively reduce the occurrence of liver failure due to insufficient FLR after hepatectomy, thereby increasing the probability of radical resection for previously inoperable patients with liver cancer. However, the exact mechanism by which ALPPS accelerates liver regeneration remains elusive.
Methods: A review of the literature was performed utilizing MEDLINE/PubMed and Web of Science databases in March of 2024.

Background: Concerns have been expressed about the feasibility of laparoscopic right hepatectomy (Lap-RH) after portal vein occlusion (PVO), because of its technical difficulty. The aim of this study is to assess the safety and feasibility of lap-RH after PVO.
Methods: Retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data from high-volume HPB centers was performed.

Background: Patients who have had prior injections, surgeries such as arthroscopies, and have existing osteosynthetic implants in the hip and knee have an increased risk of periprosthetic infections when undergoing hip (THA) or total knee arthroplasty (TKA).
Osteosynthesis: For patients with osteosynthetic implants in the knee joint, a two-stage procedure (implant removal followed by TKA) is recommended based on the available literature and the high colonization rates. A two-stage procedure is also recommended for patients with hip implants.
Background: The rising prevalence of obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2DM) is a significant public health concern, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. This study aimed to explore the association between physical activity levels, overweight/obesity, and T2DM in a nationwide survey of Nepalese adults.
Methods: This was a secondary analysis of the 2019 non-communicable diseases (NCD) risk factors STEPS survey conducted in Nepal.

European Association of Urology (EAU), Young Academic Urologists (YAU) Renal Cancer Working Group, Arnhem, the Netherlands.
Background: Bilateral synchronous renal masses (BSRMs) are a rare finding, and the optimal treatment strategy remains undetermined. This study depicts the management of BSRM at eight European high-volume centers.
Methods: This is a retrospective analysis of prospective institutional databases collecting all patients presenting with clinical T1-2 N0 M0 BSRMs between 1993 and 2020 at 8 tertiary referral high-volume centers for renal cancer treatment in Europe.
