Background: Post-operative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is a serious complication following pancreas surgery. We aimed to establish factors associated with POPF specifically in patients with pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PNET).
Methods: The 2014-2018 American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database was querried for patients undergoing resection for PNET. The impact of patient, tumor, and operative factors on POPF formation was evaluated.
Results: 3532 patient underwent resections for PNET. The POPF rate was significantly higher in patients with PNET (24.8%) versus non-PNET (16.4%) (p < 0.0001). Male sex (OR 1.45, 95% CI 1.11-1.89), enucleation (OR 3.14, 95% CI 1.10-8.98), pancreaticoduodenectomy (OR 1.51, 95% CI 1.13-2.03), small duct size <3 mm (OR 3.24, 95% CI 1.62-6.48), and soft gland texture (OR 1.81, 95% CI 1.18-2.77) were independently associated with POPF in PNET patients on multivariable analysis.
Conclusions: POPF is more common in patients undergoing resection for PNET and is dictated primarily by surgical approach and gland characteristics.

Endoscopic management of benign pancreaticobiliary disorders encompasses a range of procedures designed to address complications in gallstone disease, choledocholithiasis, and pancreatic disorders. Acute cholecystitis is typically treated with cholecystectomy or percutaneous drainage (PT-GBD), but for high-risk or future surgical candidates, alternative decompression methods, such as endoscopic transpapillary gallbladder drainage (ETP-GBD), and endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided gallbladder drainage (EUS-GBD), are effective. PT-GBD is associated with significant discomfort as well as variable adverse event rates.

J Robot Surg
January 2025
Pôle Santé Sud, Le Mans, France.
Pancreaticojejunostomy (PJ) is a critical step in pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD), often complicated by the risk of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF). This video report demonstrates a novel robotic PJ technique employing a self-expandable metallic stent. The method involves the use of the Da Vinci Xi robotic system and the WallFlex™ Biliary RX Stent for improved anastomotic support, particularly in high-risk cases defined by soft pancreatic texture and narrow duct diameter (<3 mm).

Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, Department of Medicine, David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, Los Angeles, CA 90095, USA.
Hepatopulmonary syndrome (HPS), defined by the presence of pulmonary vascular dilatations that cause right-to-left transpulmonary shunting of venous blood with a consequential increase in the alveolar-arterial oxygen gradient, is a relatively frequent complication of chronic liver disease. While orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) is indicated and often curative in HPS patients with end-stage liver disease (ESLD), little is known about the peri- and post-operative-period risks of CVA in OLT recipients with HPS. : We report a case series of five non-consecutive OLT recipients with HPS who developed ischemic and/or hemorrhagic CVAs during or shortly after OLT, raising concern that the risks of neurological complications remain increased even after OLT.

Background: This study evaluates the efficacy of gabexate mesylate thermosensitive in-situ gel (GMTI) in the treatment of beagle grade III pancreatic trauma (PT) with the assistance of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) and investigates its mechanism of action.
Methods: A grade III PT model consisting of 15 beagle dogs with severed main pancreatic ducts was created and treated with cephalic vein injection of gabexate mesylate (GM) (1.54 mL/10 kg, TID) and peripancreatic injection of GMTI (4.
