Background And Objectives: Kasai-portoenterostomy (KPE) is the initial attempt to restore the bile flow and salvage the native liver in biliary atresia (BA) patients. Cholangitis is a frequent complication after KPE and adequate treatment impacts the long-term outcome. The aim of our study is to assess the severity of cholangitis episodes in a cohort of BA patients post KPE, identify the causative agents, using several diagnostic methods, as well as to assess the tolerability and efficacy of our antimicrobial protocol.

Although primary tumor control rates after surgery and/or radiation therapy (RT) are generally high in patients with Ewing sarcoma (EWS), those with unresectable tumors have failure rates approaching 30% and experience poorer outcomes. Additionally, although metastatic site irradiation is associated with improved survival, dose, and volume effects influence the long-term toxicity risk. Consequently, it is important to identify novel systemic agents to enhance the therapeutic ratio of RT.
