Background: Pancreatic surgery is still associated with significant morbidity. In a simultaneously increasingly ageing population with elevated morbidity, the risk stratification and indications for surgery are of particular importance.
Objective: Assessment of the impact of multimorbidity of patients on the postoperative outcome after pancreatic surgery.
Material And Methods: Evaluation and summary of the available literature.
Results: The postoperative morbidity after pancreatic surgery remains high. Relevant comorbidities, such as liver cirrhosis, cardiac and pulmonary diseases and advanced renal insufficiency enormously increase the risk of perioperative morbidity and mortality; however, in high-volume centers with appropriate expertise in pancreatic surgery the mortality is below 5%.
Conclusion: Pancreatic surgery with severe comorbidity can be safely performed in centers with proven expertise. Nevertheless, a careful interpretation of the indications and good patient selection are essential for the postoperative outcome.

Severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) is one of the leading causes of hospital admissions for gastrointestinal diseases, with a rising incidence worldwide. Intestinal microbiota dysbiosis caused by SAP exacerbates systemic inflammatory response syndrome and organ dysfunction. Fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) has emerged as a promising therapeutic option for gastrointestinal diseases.

Background: Pancreatic cancer is highly aggressive and has a low survival rate primarily due to late-stage diagnosis and the lack of effective early detection methods. We introduce here a novel, noninvasive urinary extracellular vesicle miRNA-based assay for the detection of pancreatic cancer from early to late stages.
Methods: From September 2019 to July 2023, Urine samples were collected from patients with pancreatic cancer (n = 153) from five distinct sites (Hokuto Hospital, Kawasaki Medical School Hospital, National Cancer Center Hospital, Kagoshima University Hospital, and Kumagaya General Hospital) and non-cancer participants (n = 309) from two separate sites (Hokuto Hospital and Omiya City Clinic).
Two-Stage Total Laparoscopic Liver Resection at a Tertiary Center in Saudi Arabia: A Report of Two Cases.

Laparoscopic liver resection (LLR) is a minimally invasive surgical approach. Initially utilized for low-risk procedures, such as the resection of benign lesions, now LLR has evolved to include more complex operations such as metastatic lesions. We present in this article two cases with liver metastasis who underwent a successful two-stage total LLR: a 57-year-old man diagnosed with sigmoid cancer and liver metastasis and a 36-year-old man diagnosed with pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor and liver metastasis.

Bariatric surgery stands as the most potent treatment for achieving substantial weight reduction and alleviating the complications associated with obesity. However, it is not the treatment of choice for patients with obesity combined with type 2 diabetes mellitus, and the benefit of bariatric surgery varies widely among individuals. There is a noticeable inconsistency in the outcomes following these procedures.

Purpose: Sepsis-associated liver injury (SALI) leads to increased mortality in sepsis patients, yet no specialized tools exist for early risk assessment. This study aimed to develop and validate a risk prediction model for early identification of SALI before patients meet full diagnostic criteria.
Patients And Methods: This retrospective study analyzed 415 sepsis patients admitted to ICU from January 2019 to January 2022.
