Gene therapy has emerged as a pivotal component in the treatment of diverse genetic and acquired human diseases. However, effective gene delivery remains a formidable challenge to overcome. The presence of degrading enzymes, acidic pH conditions, and the gastrointestinal mucus layer pose significant barriers for genetic therapy, necessitating exploration of alternative therapeutic options.

Article Synopsis
- Robotic vascular resection and reconstruction is complex, and portal vein arterialization (PVA) is an effective alternative when the hepatic artery can't be repaired, enhancing liver oxygen supply and promoting regeneration.
- A case study describes a 52-year-old man with cholangiocarcinoma who underwent robotic left-liver-first surgery, but sustained an artery injury, leading to the use of PVA for successful artery-portal vein anastomosis.
- The surgery lasted 490 minutes with a blood loss of about 300 mL, and although there was a bile leak post-surgery, the patient recovered without experiencing liver failure.
Organ sparing to cure stage IV rectal cancer: A case report and review of literature.

Background: Rectal sparing is an option for some rectal cancers with complete or good response after chemoradiotherapy (CRT); however, it has never been evaluated in patients with metastases. We assessed long-term outcomes of a rectal-sparing approach in a liver-first strategy for patients with rectal cancer with resectable liver metastases.
Case Summary: We examined patients who underwent an organ-sparing approach for rectal cancer with synchronous liver metastases using a liver-first strategy during 2010-2015 ( = 8).
Preoperative leukocytosis is an independent risk factor for morbidity and survival after resection of colorectal liver metastases.

Background: Although surgical resection of colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) remains to be the only option for long term survival, traditional surgical concepts have been challenged by the introduction of the liver first approach or neoadjuvant chemotherapy in resectable CRLM and interventional therapies. The aim of this study was to identify prognostic factors for postoperative morbidity and survival and to externally evaluate the recently introduced resection severity index (RSI), in order to optimize patient selection and treatment strategies.
Methods: This is a retrospective single centre analysis of 213 patients undergoing surgery for CRLM in curative intent between January 2010 and December 2018.
