Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the technical safety and feasibility of gastrectomy for super-elderly patients ≥85-y-old with gastric cancer and to clarify the risk factors for serious postoperative complications in these patients.
Methods: Between 2017 and 2020, 10,203 patients who underwent distal gastrectomy (DG) and 2580 patients who underwent total gastrectomy (TG) were reviewed from the Japanese National Clinical Database. All possible preoperative factors were used to explore the risk factors for serious postoperative complications in the super-elderly patients with gastric cancer.

Malignant obstructive jaundice (MOJ) encompasses a range of diseases stemming from malignant tumors such as cholangiocarcinoma, pancreatic cancer, and primary liver cancer, among others, which cause obstruction in both intra- and extra-hepatic bile ducts. This obstruction may lead to elevated bilirubin levels, hepatic function impairment, and a low rate of successful surgical resection in clinical settings. There are various minimally invasive treatment options for MOJ, including endoscopic biliary drainage, ultrasound-guided procedures, and percutaneous biliary tract puncture drainage.

Coronary heart disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) often co-occur, presenting substantial health risks, particularly following acute myocardial infarction (AMI). While percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is a prevalent treatment, complications such as microvascular dysfunction may lead to heart failure, necessitating additional therapies. This editorial examines the emerging roles of sacubitril/valsartan and sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors in managing post-PCI.
