Background: This study explores the association between the need for open necrosectomy (ON) during infected necrotizing pancreatitis (INP) treatment and the development of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) following definitive surgery (DS) for transverse colonic fistulas.
Materials And Methods: This study was conducted at two tertiary hospitals and included patients who underwent DS for colonic fistula secondary to INP from January 2009 to December 2023. Patients were followed until hospital discharge. The primary outcome was the incidence of POPF.
Results: A total of 135 patients were included. The median age was 38 years (interquartile range [IQR]: 32-44 years), with 85 (62.9%) being male. ON was required in 52 patients (38.5%), with 24 patients developing POPF post-DS. The need for ON (odds ratio [OR] = 2.78, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.03-7.58, p = 0.040) and the interval from INP resolution to DS (OR = 0.82, 95% CI: 0.68-0.92, p = 0.011) were associated with POPF.
Conclusion: The need for ON during INP treatment is significantly associated with an increased risk of POPF following DS for transverse colonic fistulas.

Objectives: Patients experience significant physical and psychological changes within the first 3 months post-surgery, yet few studies focus on patient experiences during the early postoperative period. This study aimed to explore the patient experiences and expectations for nursing follow-up during the home recovery period following metabolic and bariatric surgery.
Design: A qualitative descriptive study design was used.

A 75-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with a complaint of jaundice and elevated liver enzyme levels. She was diagnosed with pancreatic head carcinoma after examination. She had undergone massive resection of the small intestine due to thrombosis of the superior mesenteric artery at 48 years of age, and the remaining ileum was approximately 70 cm in length.

A 50-year-old female presented with abdominal pain. Upper gastrointestinal endoscopy revealed a 30 mm ulcerative lesion extending from the duodenal bulb to the descending portion, and biopsy confirmed poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma. Abdominal contrast-enhanced CT scan showed an hypovascular tumor in the pancreatic head with suspected invasion into the duodenum, along with enlarged #8 lymph node.

Japan, as a super-aged society, faces a growing number of surgical cases among elderly patients. The decline in physical and cognitive function is more pronounced in the elderly than in younger people, so it is important to choose the optimal treatment method for cancer treatment and to prevent the decline in physical and cognitive function after surgery. In addition, there is a focus on the use of advanced care planning(ACP)and electronic PRO(ePRO)assessments with the aim of improving quality of life.

The growing disparity between the demand for pancreas transplants and the availability of suitable organs underscores the urgent need for innovative donor strategies, including the utilization of donors after circulatory death (DCD). This scoping review presents a comprehensive comparative analysis of transplantation outcomes between DCD and donors after brain death (DBD), focusing on pancreatic graft survival, postoperative complications, and functional metrics such as graft performance and HbA1c levels. Although DCD grafts were suspected to be associated with higher rates of early complications, including delayed graft function and thrombosis, altogether resulting from potentially more ischemia-reperfusion injuries, their long-term outcomes are comparable to those of DBD grafts.
