Quantitative liver function imaging and whole genome sequencing - Effective modalities for a new era in personalised decision-making for operable colorectal liver metastases?
HPB (Oxford)
January 2025
Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, Basingstoke, United Kingdom.
Background: The optimal strategy for patients with colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) is unclear. The Precision1 prospective, observational trial assessed whether pre-operative functional imaging and whole genome sequencing (WGS), could enhance individualized decision-making.

Orthopedic Surgery <50 Days Following Covid-19 Infection Is Not Associated With Increased Postoperative Complications.
Iowa Orthop J
January 2025
Department of Orthopedics and Rehabilitation, University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics, Iowa City, Iowa, USA.
Background: Recent literature indicates that COVID-19 infection is a negative predictor of good outcomes following elective orthopedic surgery. However, the ideal timing of surgery after infection is unclear. The purpose of this study was to compare the rates of post-operative complications between those who underwent elective orthopedic surgery <50 days and >50 days after COVID-19 infection.

Department of Orthopedics, Huanggang Central Hospital of Yangtze University, Huanggang, 438000, Hubei, People's Republic of China.
Background: The number of patients with hip and femoral fractures is increasing and is expected to further increase in upcoming years due to the ageing population and the life expectancy of the general population. In this analysis, we aimed to systematically assess the post-operative complications associated with the pre-operative use of Aspirin in patients undergoing surgery for hip or femoral fracture.

Low-Grade Myofibroblastic Sarcoma of the Acetabulum - A Rare Case with Review of Literature.
J Orthop Case Rep

Department of Orthopaedics, Mahatma Gandhi Medical College and Hospital, Jaipur, Rajasthan, India.
Introduction: Low-grade myofibroblastic sarcoma (LGMS) is an atypical and extremely infrequent type of tumor, primary mass being usually present in subcutaneous and soft tissue. Bony involvement is very rare. It has a very high chance of recurrence locally due to its aggressive biological behavior, metastasis in other parts of body is rarely seen.

Langenbecks Arch Surg
December 2024
Department of Surgery and Transplantation, Centre for Cancer and Organ Diseases, Rigshospitalet, 2100, Copenhagen, Denmark.
Purpose: Perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (pCCA) is a rare malignancy requiring resection of extrahepatic bile ducts with or without hepatectomy. Prognostic models for post-operative outcomes in pCCA are unusable in pre-operative decision-making as most are based on post-operative variables. Additionally, no pre-operative models include futile laparotomy or benign hilar stenosis (BHS) as possible outcomes.
