AI Article Synopsis
- * Diagnosing pancreatic injuries is challenging due to their hidden location and the potential for severe complications from surrounding structures.
- * A specific case from Civil Hospital, Hyderabad, highlights a patient with a firearm injury who developed PUF due to undiagnosed pancreatic duct damage, ultimately requiring nephrostomy and pancreatic duct stenting for treatment.
Article Abstract
Pancreaticoureteric Fistula (PUF) is a very rare complication secondary to penetrating abdominal trauma involving the ureter and pancreatic parenchyma. Pancreatic injuries carry h igh morbidity due to the involvem ent of surrounding structures and are d ifficult to diagnose due to thei r retroperitoneal location. A case of a patient is reported at Civil Hospital, Hyderabad who presented with a history of firearm injury and missed pancreatic duct involvement on initial exploration that eventually led to the development of Pan creaticoureteric Fistula. He was managed v ia p erc ut aneous nep hrostomy ( PCN ) for the right ureteric injury and pancreatic duct (PD) stenting was done for distal main pancreatic duct injury (MPD).

Objective: Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA) is a highly lethal hepatobiliary malignancy with an increasing incidence annually. Extensive research has elucidated the existence of a reciprocal interaction between platelets and cancer cells, which promotes tumor proliferation and metastasis. This study aims to investigate the function and mechanism underlying iCCA progression driven by the interplay between platelets and tumor cells, aiming to provide novel therapeutic strategies for iCCA.

Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the diagnostic performance and safety of endoscopic ultrasound-guided tissue acquisition (EUS-TA) for perivascular soft-tissue cuffing (PSTC).
Methods: This single-center, retrospective study evaluated patients in whom EUS-TA was performed for PSTC in pancreatic or bile duct cancer lesions between October 2017 and March 2024. PSTC was defined as a perivascular soft-tissue area contiguous with nearby blood vessels from the suspected primary tumor.

Background: This study compared short- and mid-term outcomes of hemihepatectomy (HH) and pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) in patients with extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, focusing on surgical outcomes, body composition, and nutritional status.
Method: A retrospective review was conducted to assess short-term outcomes, including operative time, blood loss, complications, and mortality. Body composition and nutritional parameters were analyzed preoperatively and 1 year postoperatively.
