Intraoperative vascular anastomosis occlusion due to cold agglutinin disease during brain surgery: a case report.
JA Clin Rep
January 2025
Department of Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine, Gifu University Hospital, 1-1 Yanagido, Gifu, 501-1194, Japan.
Background: Cold agglutinin disease (CAD) is an autoimmune hemolytic anemia that induces blood coagulation and hemolysis upon exposure to cold temperatures. Strict temperature control is essential to mitigate these effects, especially during surgical procedures where hypothermia is possible.
Case Presentation: A 57-year-old male, 165 cm and 72 kg, diagnosed with CAD, underwent cerebral vascular anastomosis.
The learning curve for laparoscopic-assisted single-port mediastinoscopic esophagectomy: an analysis of proficiency.
BMC Surg
January 2025
Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Fifth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University, No.52 East Meihua Road, Zhuhai, Guangdong Province, 519000, China.
Background: Laparoscopic-assisted single-port mediastinoscopic esophagectomy is a safe and effective emerging minimally invasive esophagectomy, but little has been reported about the learning curve for this technology. The goal of the study was to determine the number of procedures to achieve different levels of proficiency on the learning curve.
Methods: This study retrospectively analyzed data from consecutive surgeries performed by the same surgeon at the same center from 2016 to 2021.
The management of locally advanced esophageal cancer typically involves esophagectomy; however, postoperative complications, particularly anastomotic stricture, remain prevalent. Anastomotic stricture can severely compromise patients' quality of life by leading to difficulties in food intake. Although endoscopic balloon dilation has become a standard treatment for gastrointestinal strictures, its efficacy is often limited due to the risk of perforation and the potential for recurrent stricture, necessitating multiple interventions.

Metab Brain Dis
January 2025
Institute of Liver and Biliary Sciences, New Delhi, India.
Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is traditionally associated with hepatic parenchymal diseases, such as acute liver failure and cirrhosis. Its prevalence in non-cirrhotic portal hypertension (NCPH) patients, extrahepatic portal vein obstruction (EHPVO), and non-cirrhotic portal fibrosis (NCPF) is less well described. HE in NCPH allows one to study the effect of portosystemic shunting and ammonia without significant hepatic parenchymal injury.

Ann Surg Oncol
January 2025
Department of HPB Surgery and Liver Transplantation, Hôpital Beaujon, Assistance Publique-Hôpitaux de Paris (AP-HP), Université de Paris-Cité, Clichy, France.
Background: Locally advanced pancreatic adenocarcinomas (LA-PDAC) are more frequently operated now than in the past because of new regimen chemotherapy and improvement in surgical technique. Resection of the coeliac trunk (CT) during pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) or total pancreatectomy (TP) is not routinely done owing to the risk of liver and gastric ischaemia. In this video, a patient with LA-PDAC underwent TP with CT resection and retrograde gastric revascularization through the distal splenic artery.
