Background/aim: The aim of the study was to analyze the postoperative survival of colitis-associated colorectal cancer (CAC) with ulcerative colitis (UC), and the risk factors affecting it.

Patients And Methods: A questionnaire including postoperative survival was sent to 88 hospitals that reported CAC patients in the literature up until January, 2006 and to members of the Research Group of Intractable Inflammatory Bowel Disease.

Results: The 5-year postoperative overall survival (OS) of 170 CAC patients was 74.2% which was similar to sporadic colorectal cancer in Japan (72.1%). Pathologic TNM stage, histological type, type of surgical procedure (proctocolectomy, segmental resection), and preoperative cancer surveillance were statistically significant factors for OS. By Cox regression analysis, pathologic TNM stage and proctocolectomy were statistically significant prognostic factors for OS.

Conclusion: In CAC with UC, the postoperative OS was similar to sporadic colorectal cancer. Pathologic TNM stage and proctocolectomy were confirmed as important prognostic factors.

Risk factors for delayed gastric emptying after pancreatoduodenectomy: a 10-year retrospective study.

Ann Med

December 2025

Department of Surgery, Faculty of Medicine, Unit of Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary Surgery and Abdominal Organ Transplantation, Doce de Octubre University Hospital, Instituto de Investigación (imas12), Complutense University, Madrid, Spain.

Background: Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) is a frequent complication of pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) and is associated with prolonged hospital stay, readmission, increased hospital costs and decreased quality of life. However, the pathophysiology of DGE remains unclear.

Methods: This is a retrospective study of patients who underwent PD for pancreatic or periampullary tumours.

Distinct molecular subtypes of muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC) may show different platinum sensitivities. Currently available data were mostly generated at transcriptome level and have limited comparability to each other. We aimed to determine the platinum sensitivity of molecular subtypes by using the protein expression-based Lund Taxonomy.

Objective: To determine the impact of prolonged storage of donor lungs at 10°C of up to 24h on outcome after lung transplantation.

Background: An increasing body of evidence suggests 10°C as the optimal storage temperature for donor lungs. A recent study showed that cold ischemic times can be safely expanded to >12h when lungs are stored at 10°C.

Background: Atrial septal defects (ASDs) are a common cause of congenital heart disease worldwide.

Objectives: The purpose of the study was to assess change over time in surgical outcomes for ASD repair and identify patient-level risk factors for adverse postoperative outcomes.

Methods: We analyzed cases of isolated ASD in patients <18 years from 2010 to 2020 from 71 sites participating in the International Quality Improvement Collaborative for Congenital Heart Disease.

Background: Despite providing valuable staging and prognostic information, the therapeutic benefit of pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) remains uncertain. We sought to assess the effect of extended PLND (ePLND) on the biochemical recurrence (BCR) of patients with National Comprehensive Cancer Net (NCCN) high- or very high-risk prostate cancer treated via robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP).

Methods: We used a multi-institutional database (six centers) to assess 989 patients who underwent RARP from 2014 to 2022 with or without ePLND, among which 699 patients underwent BCR analysis.
