Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies report promising outcomes with minimally invasive (MIS) hepatectomy in elderly patients but remain limited by small size. This study aims to comparatively evaluate the demographics and outcomes of geriatric patients undergoing MIS and open hepatectomy. METHOD The 2016-2021 NSQIP database was evaluated comparing patients ≥75 undergoing MIS versus open hepatectomy. Patient selection and outcomes were compared using bivariate analysis with multivariable modeling (MVR) evaluating factors associated with serious complications and mortality. Propensity score matched (PSM) analysis further evaluated serious complications, mortality, length of stay (LOS), Clavien Dindo Classification (CDC), and Comprehensive Complication Index (CCI) for cohorts. RESULTS We evaluated 2674 patients with 681 (25.5%) receiving MIS hepatectomy. MIS approaches were used more for partial lobectomy (85.9% vs. 61.7%; p < 0.001), and required fewer biliary reconstructions (1.6% vs. 10.6%; p < 0.001). Patients were similar with regards to sex, body mass index, and other comorbidities. Unadjusted analysis demonstrated that MIS approaches had fewer serious complications (8.8% vs. 18.7%; p < 0.001). However, after controlling for cohort differences the MIS approach was not associated with reduced likelihood of serious complications (odds ratio [OR]: 0.77; p = 0.219) or mortality (OR: 1.19; p = 0.623). PSM analysis further supported no difference in serious complications (p = 0.403) or mortality (p = 0.446). However, following PSM a significant reduction in LOS (-1.99 days; p < 0.001), CDC (-0.26 points; p = 0.016) and CCI (-2.79 points; p = 0.022) was demonstrated with MIS approaches. CONCLUSIONS This is the largest study comparing MIS and open hepatectomy in elderly patients. Results temper previously reported outcomes but support reduced LOS and complications with MIS approaches.

Realizing Textbook Outcomes Following Liver Resection for Hepatic Neoplasms with Development and Validation of a Predictive Nomogram. Ann Surg Oncol 2024:10.1245/s10434-024-15983-6. [PMID: 39103690 DOI: 10.1245/s10434-024-15983-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/05/2024] [Accepted: 07/23/2024] [Indexed: 08/07/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND 'Textbook Outcome' (TO) represents an effort to define a standardized, composite quality benchmark based on intraoperative and postoperative endpoints. This study aimed to assess the applicability of TO as an outcome measure following liver resection for hepatic neoplasms from a low- to middle-income economy and determine its impact on long-term survival. Based on identified perioperative predictors, we developed and validated a nomogram-based scoring and risk stratification system. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed patients undergoing curative resections for hepatic neoplasms between 2012 and 2023. Rates of TO were assessed over time and factors associated with achieving a TO were evaluated. Using stepwise regression, a prediction nomogram for achieving TO was established based on perioperative risk factors. RESULTS Of the 1018 consecutive patients who underwent liver resections, a TO was achieved in 64.9% (661/1018). The factor most responsible for not achieving TO was significant post-hepatectomy liver failure (22%). Realization of TO was independently associated with improved overall and disease-free survival. On logistic regression, American Society of Anesthesiologists score of 2 (p = 0.0002), perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (p = 0.011), major hepatectomy (p = 0.0006), blood loss >1500 mL (p = 0.007), and presence of lymphovascular emboli on pathology (p = 0.026) were associated with the non-realization of TO. These independent risk factors were integrated into a nomogram prediction model with the predictive efficiency for TO (area under the curve 75.21%, 95% confidence interval 70.69-79.72%). CONCLUSION TO is a realizable outcome measure and should be adopted. We recommend the use of the nomogram proposed as a convenient tool for patient selection and prognosticating outcomes following hepatectomy.

[PMID: 39043979 DOI: 10.1007/s11547-024-01858-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2024] [Accepted: 07/17/2024] [Indexed: 07/25/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the ability of 50-keV virtual monoenergetic images (VMI) to depict abdominal arteries in abdominal CT angiography (CTA) compared with 70-keV VMI with photon-counting detector CT (PCD-CT). METHODS Fifty consecutive patients who underwent multiphase abdominal scans between March and April 2023 were included. Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) were quantitatively assessed for the abdominal aorta (AA), celiac artery (CeA), superior mesenteric artery (SMA), renal artery (RA), and right hepatic artery (RHA) at both 50- and 70-keV VMI. In addition, 3D images from CTA were analyzed to measure arterial lengths and evaluate the visualization of distal branches. RESULTS Significantly higher SNR and CNR were observed at 50-keV compared to 70-keV VMI for all arteries: AA (36.54 and 48.28 vs. 25.70 and 28.46), CeA (22.39 and 48.38 vs. 19.09 and 29.15), SMA (23.34 and 49.34 vs. 19.67 and 29.71), RA (22.88 and 48.84 vs. 20.15 and 29.41), and RHA (14.38 and 44.41 vs. 13.45 and 27.18), all p < 0.05. Arterial lengths were also significantly longer at 50-keV: RHA (192.6 vs. 180.3 mm), SMA (230.9 vs. 216.5 mm), and RA (95.9 vs. 92.0 mm), all p < 0.001. CONCLUSION In abdominal CTA with PCD-CT, 50-keV VMI demonstrated superior quantitative image quality compared to 70-keV VMI. In addition, 50-keV VMI 3D CTA allowed better visualization of abdominal artery branches, highlighting its potential clinical advantage for improved imaging and detailed assessment of abdominal arteries.

The Atlas of the Inferior Mesenteric Artery and Vein under Maximum-Intensity Projection and Three-Dimensional Reconstruction View. J Clin Med 2024; 13:879. [PMID: 38337571 PMCID: PMC10856009 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13030879] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2023] [Revised: 01/12/2024] [Accepted: 01/30/2024] [Indexed: 02/12/2024] Open
Abstract
(1) Background: Understanding vascular patterns is crucial for minimizing bleeding and operating time in colorectal surgeries. This study aimed to develop an anatomical atlas of the inferior mesenteric artery (IMA) and vein (IMV). (2) Methods: A total of 521 patients with left-sided colorectal cancer were included. IMA and IMV patterns were identified using maximum-intensity projection (MIP) and three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction techniques. The accuracy of these techniques was assessed by comparing them with surgical videos. We compared the amount of bleeding and operating time for IMA ligation across different IMA types. (3) Results: Most patients (45.7%) were classified as type I IMA, followed by type II (20.7%), type III (22.6%), and type IV (3.5%). Newly identified type V and type VI patterns were found in 6.5% and 1% of patients, respectively. Of the IMVs, 49.9% drained into the superior mesenteric vein (SMV), 38.4% drained into the splenic vein (SPV), 9.4% drained into the SMV-SPV junction, and only 2.3% drained into the first jejunal vein (J1V). Above the root of the left colic artery (LCA), 13.1% of IMVs had no branches, 50.1% had one, 30.1% had two, and 6.7% had three or more branches. Two patients had two main IMV branches, and ten had IMVs at the edge of the mesocolon with small branches. At the IMA root, 37.2% of LCAs overlapped with the IMV, with 34.0% being lateral, 16.9% distal, 8.7% medial, and both the marginal type of IMV and the persistent descending mesocolon (PDM) type represented 1.4%. MIP had an accuracy of 98.43%, and 3D reconstruction had an accuracy of 100%. Blood loss and operating time were significantly higher in the complex group compared to the simple group for IMA ligation (p < 0.001). (4) Conclusions: A comprehensive anatomical atlas of the IMA and IMV was provided. Complex IMA patterns were associated with increased bleeding and operating time.

Minimally invasive versus open radical antegrade modular pancreatosplenectomy for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma: an entropy balancing analysis. HPB (Oxford) 2024; 26:44-53. [PMID: 37775352 DOI: 10.1016/j.hpb.2023.09.013] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/21/2022] [Revised: 06/25/2023] [Accepted: 09/11/2023] [Indexed: 10/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The safety and efficacy of minimally invasive radical antegrade modular pancreatosplenectomy (MI-RAMPS) remain to be established in pancreatic cancer (PDAC) METHODS: Eighty-five open (O)-RAMPS were compared to 93 MI-RAMPS. The entropy balance matching approach was used to compare the two cohorts, eliminating the selection bias. Three models were created. Model 1 made O-RAMPS equal to the MI-RAMPS cohort (i.e., compared the two procedures for resectable PDAC); model 2 made MI-RAMPS equal to O-RAMPS (i.e., compared the two procedures for borderline-resectable PDAC); model 3, compared robotic and laparoscopic RAMPS. RESULTS O-RAMPS and MI-RAMPS showed "non-small" differences for BMI, comorbidity, back pain, tumor size, vascular resection, anterior or posterior RAMPS, multi-visceral resection, stump management, grading, and neoadjuvant therapy. Before reweighting, O-RAMPS had fewer clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistulae (CR-POPF) (20.0% vs. 40.9%; p = 0.003), while MI-RAMPS had a higher mean of lymph nodes (25.7 vs. 31.7; p = 0.011). In model 1, MI-RAMPS and O-RAMPS achieved similar results. In model 2, O-RAMPS was associated with lower comprehensive complication index scores (MD = 11.2; p = 0.038), and CR-POPF rates (OR = 0.2; p = 0.001). In model 3, robotic-RAMPS had a higher probability of negative resection margins. CONCLUSION In patients with anatomically resectable PDAC, MI-RAMPS is feasible and as safe as O-RAMPS.

The Comprehensive Complication Index versus Clavien-Dindo grading after laparoscopic and open D2-gastrectomy in the multicenter randomized LOGICA-trial. EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF SURGICAL ONCOLOGY 2023; 49:107095.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Complications can be classified using the most-severe Clavien-Dindo-Classification (CDC) per patient or the total complication burden per patient expressed in the Comprehensive Complication Index (CCI). This study determined the additional value of CCI to CDC in examining the impact of complications after gastric cancer surgery. METHODS The CCI and CDC were determined in the multicenter randomized LOGICA-trial comparing laparoscopic versus open D2-gastrectomy for cancer (cT1-4aN0-3M0). Differences in median CCI between laparoscopic and open gastrectomy were compared for overall postoperative complications and cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, infectious, pulmonary, and other complications. CCI and CDC were correlated to hospitalization, ICU-stay and reoperations using Spearman's rho-test and compared with standard Fisher's z-transformation. RESULTS Between 2015 and 2018, 211 patients underwent laparoscopic (n = 106) or open (n = 105) D2-gastrectomy, and 157 (74%) received neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Median CCI was comparable between laparoscopic versus open gastrectomy regarding overall complications (CCI 0 [IQR 0-23.5] versus 0 [IQR 0-22.6]; p = 0.755) and subgroups of complications (p > 0.05). Both CCI and CDC showed moderate positive correlations for hospitalization (rs = 0.646 versus rs = 0.628; p = 0.001, difference clinically irrelevant), and reoperations (rs = 0.590 versus rs = 0.599; p = 0.070), and weak correlations for ICU-stay (rs = 0.446 versus rs = 0.440; p = 0.189). CONCLUSIONS The CCI is a composite scoring system based on the CDC and reflects a subjective interpretation of complication burden from the perspectives of both physicians and patients, following abdominal surgery other than gastrectomy. Implementing CCI showed no clinically relevant benefit and caused additional workload compared to CDC for assessing complication burden. Therefore, using the CCI alongside the CDC after gastric cancer surgery is not recommended.

Prediction of postoperative complications after hepatectomy with dynamic monitoring of central venous oxygen saturation. BMC Surg 2023; 23:343. [PMID: 37957615 PMCID: PMC10644466 DOI: 10.1186/s12893-023-02238-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/14/2023] [Accepted: 10/17/2023] [Indexed: 11/15/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The usefulness of static monitoring using central venous pressure has been reported for anesthetic management in hepatectomy. It is unclear whether intra-hepatectomy dynamic monitoring can predict the postoperative course. We aimed to investigate the association between intraoperative dynamic monitoring and post-hepatectomy complications. Furthermore, we propose a novel anesthetic management strategy to reduce postoperative complication. METHODS From 2018 to 2021, 93 patients underwent hepatectomy at our hospital. Fifty-three patients who underwent dynamic monitoring during hepatectomy were enrolled. Flo Trac system was used for dynamic monitoring. The baseline central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2) was defined as the average ScvO2 for 30 min after anesthesia induction. ScvO2 fluctuation (ΔScvO2) was defined as the difference between the baseline and minimum ScvO2. Postoperative complications were evaluated using the comprehensive complication index (CCI). RESULTS Patients with ΔScvO2 ≥ 10% had significantly higher CCI scores (0 vs. 20.9: p = 0.043). In univariate analysis, patients with higher CCI scores demonstrated significantly higher preoperative C-reactive protein-to-lymphocyte ratio (7.51 vs. 24.49: p = 0.039), intraoperative bleeding (105 vs. 581 ml: p = 0.008), number of patients with major hepatectomy (4/45 vs. 3/8: p = 0.028), and number of patients with ΔScvO2 ≥ 10% (11/45 vs. 6/8; p = 0.010). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that ΔScvO2 ≥ 10% (odds ratio: 9.53, p = 0.016) was the only independent predictor of elevated CCI. CONCLUSIONS Central venous oxygen saturation fluctuation during hepatectomy is a predictor of postoperative complications. Anesthetic management based on intraoperative dynamic monitoring and minimizing the change in ScvO2 is a potential strategy for decreasing the risk of post-hepatectomy complications.

[PMID: 37598488 PMCID: PMC10469524 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijscr.2023.108639] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2023] [Revised: 08/02/2023] [Accepted: 08/06/2023] [Indexed: 08/22/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Solid pseudopapillary neoplasm (SPN) is a rare and low malignant tumor found mainly in young females. There is no standardized procedure for SPN of the pancreatic body and tail in children. In adults, an international consensus on precision anatomy for minimally invasive distal pancreatectomy (MIDP) was established recently (PAM-HBP Surgery Project). The aim of this study is to demonstrate that precision anatomy can also be safely and effectively implemented in the pediatric population. PRESENTATION OF CASE A 12-year-old girl with an incidentally found SPN located in the pancreatic tail was referred to our hospital. She successfully underwent an R0 resection by laparoscopic spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy (LSPDP) under the concept of precision anatomy. The patient recovered uneventfully and was discharged on day 7. DISCUSSION This is the first successful report of LSPDP under the concept of precision anatomy in children. In accordance with the recommendations from the international consensus, the "anterior approach" was selected to dissect and encircle the splenic artery based on the vascular anatomy identified by preoperative imaging. The dorsal dissection border of the pancreas along the anterior layer above the Gerota's fascia was carefully maintained and the splenic vessels were preserved taking into consideration the low malignant potential of SPN and to decrease the risk of complications associated with splenectomy, which were also the essential issues of the consensus. CONCLUSION The implementation of precision anatomy for pediatric pancreas surgery should facilitate the safe diffusion of MIDP for SPN and other benign or low-malignant tumors in children.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Over 70% of the patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are diagnosed at an advanced stage and lose the opportunity for radical surgery. Combination therapy of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) and anti-programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) antibodies has achieved a high tumor response rate in both the first-line and second-line treatment of advanced HCC. However, few studies have prospectively evaluated whether TKIs plus anti-PD-1 antibodies could convert unresectable intermediate-advanced HCC into resectable disease. METHODS This single-arm, phase II study enrolled systemic therapy-naïve adult patients with unresectable Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer stage B or C HCC. Patients received oral lenvatinib one time per day plus intravenous anti-PD-1 agents every 3 weeks (one cycle). Tumor response and resectability were evaluated before the fourth cycle, then every two cycles. The primary endpoint was conversion success rate by investigator assessment. Secondary endpoints included objective response rate (ORR) by independent imaging review (IIR) assessment per modified RECIST (mRECIST) and Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors, V.1.1 (RECIST 1.1), progression-free survival (PFS) and 12-month recurrence-free survival (RFS) rate by IIR per mRECIST, R0 resection rate, overall survival (OS), and safety. Biomarkers were assessed as exploratory objectives. RESULTS Of the 56 eligible patients enrolled, 53 (94.6%) had macrovascular invasion, and 16 (28.6%) had extrahepatic metastasis. The median follow-up was 23.5 months. The primary endpoint showed a conversion success rate of 55.4% (31/56). ORR was 53.6% per mRECIST and 44.6% per RECIST 1.1. Median PFS was 8.9 months, and median OS was 23.9 months. Among the 31 successful conversion patients, 21 underwent surgery with an R0 resection rate of 85.7%, a pathological complete response rate of 38.1%, and a 12-month RFS rate of 47.6%. Grade ≥3 treatment-related adverse events were observed in 42.9% of patients. Tumor immune microenvironment analysis of pretreatment samples displayed significant enrichment of CD8+ T cells (p=0.03) in responders versus non-responders. CONCLUSION Lenvatinib plus anti-PD-1 antibodies demonstrate promising efficacy and tolerable safety as conversion therapy in unresectable HCC. Pre-existing CD8+ cells are identified as a promising biomarker for response to this regimen. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER Chinese Clinical Trial Registry, ChiCTR1900023914.

Feasibility of laparoscopic radical antegrade modular pancreatosplenectomy (RAMPS) as a standard treatment for distal resectable pancreatic cancer. Langenbecks Arch Surg 2023; 408:217. [PMID: 37249638 DOI: 10.1007/s00423-023-02942-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2023] [Accepted: 05/14/2023] [Indexed: 05/31/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Laparoscopic (Lap-) radical antegrade modular pancreatosplenectomy (RAMPS) is an attractive radical procedure that aims to achieve negative posterior retroperitoneal margin in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) resections. However, only few institutions are adapting Lap-RAMPS due to the technical difficulties and the lack of supporting evidence for the clinical applications. METHODS A retrospective cohort study was performed on consecutive patients who underwent RAMPS for distal resectable PDACs. We analyzed the short- and long-term outcomes including local control and the induction of adjuvant chemotherapy compared between Lap- and Open-RAMPS. RESULTS Of the 118 RAMPS patients, 43 patients underwent Lap-RAMPS and 75 patients underwent Open-RAMPS. The blood loss was lower (125 vs. 390 mL, p < 0.001), and postoperative hospital stay was shorter (17 vs. 21 days, p = 0.018) in the Lap-RAMPS group. There was no difference in the postoperative complications and no mortality in both groups. R0 resection rate was 100.0% in the Lap-RAMPS and 90.7% in the Open-RAMPS (p = 0.039). Among the patients eligible for adjuvant chemotherapy, the Lap-RAMPS group showed a favorable induction rate (100.0 vs. 89.6%, p = 0.037). Both groups showed a favorable 3-year local recurrence rate (8.7 vs. 10.0%, p = 0.976) and 3-year overall survival (69.8 vs. 71.1%, p = 0.996). CONCLUSIONS The safety and efficacy of Lap-RAMPS were comparable to those of Open-RAMPS in terms of achieving local control and adjuvant chemotherapy induction. A higher early induction of adjuvant chemotherapy is an advantage of minimally invasive surgery.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of a liver transplantation (LT) program on the outcomes of resectable hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). BACKGROUND Surgical treatment of HCC includes both hepatic resection (HR) and LT. However, the presence of cirrhosis and the possibility of recurrence make the management of this disease complex and probably different according to the presence of a LT program. METHODS Patients undergoing HR for HCC between January 2005 and December 2019 were identified from a national database of HCC. The main study outcomes were major surgical complications according to the Comprehensive Complication Index, posthepatectomy liver failure (PHLF), 90-day mortality, overall survival, and disease-free survival. Secondary outcomes were salvage liver transplantation (SLT) and postrecurrence survival. RESULTS A total of 3202 patients were included from 25 hospitals over the study period. Three of 25 (12%) had an LT program. The presence of an LT program within a center was associated with a reduced probability of PHLF (odds ratio=0.38) but not with overall survival and disease-free survival. There was an increased probability of SLT when HR was performed in a transplant hospital (odds ratio=12.05). Among transplant-eligible patients, those who underwent LT had a significantly longer postrecurrence survival. CONCLUSIONS This study showed that the presence of a LT program was associated with decreased PHLF rates and an increased probability to receive SLT in case of recurrence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bioelectric impedance vector analysis (BIVA) is a reliable tool to assess body composition. The aim was to study the association of BIVA-derived phase angle (PA) and standardized PA (SPA) values and the occurrence of surgery-related morbidity. METHODS Patients undergoing hepatectomy for cancer in two Italian centers were prospectively enrolled. BIVA was performed the morning of surgery. Patients were then stratified for the occurrence or not of postoperative morbidity. RESULTS Out of 190 enrolled patients, 76 (40%) experienced postoperative complications. Patients with morbidity had a significant lower PA, SPA, body cell mass, and skeletal muscle mass, and higher extracellular water and fat mass. At the multivariate analysis, presence of cirrhosis (OR 7.145, 95% CI:2.712-18.822, p < 0.001), the Charlson comorbidity index (OR 1.236, 95% CI: 1.009-1.515, p = 0.041), the duration of surgery (OR 1.004, 95% CI:1.001-1.008, p = 0.018), blood loss (OR 1.002. 95% CI: 1.001-1.004, p = 0.004), dehydration (OR 10.182, 95% CI: 1.244-83.314, p = 0.030) and SPA < -1.65 (OR 3.954, 95% CI: 1.699-9.202, p = 0.001) were significantly and independently associated with the risk of complications. CONCLUSION Introducing BIVA before hepatic resections may add valuable and independent information on the risk of morbidity.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate whether mobile health (mHealth)-based transitional care, which utilized WeChat, could benefit patients undergoing hepatectomy. From January 2019 to December 2020, 807 patients who underwent hepatectomy in a tertiary care hospital were included in the study. Patients were divided into a transitional care group (TC group) (n = 238) and a control group (n = 569) based on whether they participated in mHealth-based transitional care, which utilized the WeChat application. Depending on the type of variables, t-tests, χ2 tests, and other statistical methods were used to compare differences between groups. Propensity score matching analysis was conducted for factors that differed in basic characteristics. After 1:1 matching, 238 patients were included in each group. Less readmission within 90 days of discharge, better quality of life, and higher satisfaction were found in the TC group both before and after matching (p < .05). This study showed the potential of applying mHealth-based transitional care among post-hepatectomy patients.

Abstract
The Fanconi anemia complementation group M (FANCM) gene is a potential candidate for breast/ovarian cancer susceptibility in European populations. Here, we examined the contribution of FANCM germline variants to hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer in Pakistan. Comprehensive FANCM variant screening was performed in 201 BRCA1 and BRCA2 (BRCA1/2) negative Pakistani patients with and without triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and/or ovarian cancer, using denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography analysis (DHPLC) followed by DNA sequencing. Novel variants were tested for their potential effect on protein function using in silico tools. Reverse transcription (RT)-PCR analysis of RNA extracted from one deletion/insertion (delins) variant (p.K1780delinsNGIT) carrier and three non-carriers was performed to evaluate the impact of this variant on splicing. Furthermore, potentially functional variants were evaluated in 200 healthy female controls. A missense variant (p.V1857M) was identified in a 50-year-old TNBC patient with a family history of breast cancer. It was also identified in the index patient´s daughter, who was diagnosed with osteosarcoma at 15 years of age. Further, one delins variant (p.K1780delinsNGIT) was identified in a 45-year-old non-TNBC patient, but not detected in her brother, who was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma at 38 years of age. Based on in silico and RNA analyses, p.V1857M and p.K1780delinsNGIT were predicted as variants of uncertain significance (VUS), respectively. Both variants were absent in 200 healthy controls. Our findings suggest a marginal contribution of FANCM variants to hereditary breast/ovarian cancer in Pakistan, which need to be confirmed in larger studies.

Re-interpreting mesenteric vascular anatomy on 3D virtual and/or physical models, part II: anatomy of relevance to surgeons operating splenic flexure cancer. Surg Endosc 2022; 36:9136-9145. [PMID: 35773607 PMCID: PMC9652173 DOI: 10.1007/s00464-022-09394-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2022] [Accepted: 06/06/2022] [Indexed: 01/06/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The splenic flexure is irrigated from two vascular areas, both from the middle colic and the left colic artery. The challenge for the surgeon is to connect these two vascular areas in an oncological safe procedure. MATERIALS AND METHODS The vascular anatomy, manually 3D reconstructed from 32 preoperative high-resolution CT datasets using Osirix MD, Mimics Medical and 3-matic Medical Datasets, were exported as STL-files, video clips, stills and supplemented with 3D printed models. RESULTS Our first major finding was the difference in level between the middle colic and the inferior mesenteric artery origins. We have named this relationship a mesenteric inter-arterial stair. The middle colic artery origin could be found cranial (median 3.38 cm) or caudal (median 0.58 cm) to the inferior mesenteric artery. The lateral distance between the two origins was 2.63 cm (median), and the straight distance 4.23 cm (median). The second finding was the different trajectories and confluence pattern of the inferior mesenteric vein. This vein ended in the superior mesenteric/jejunal vein (21 patients) or in the splenic vein (11 patients). The inferior mesenteric vein confluence could be infrapancreatic (17 patients), infrapancreatic with retropancreatic arch (7 patients) or retropancreatic (8 patients). Lastly, the accessory middle colic artery was present in ten patients presenting another pathway for lymphatic dissemination. CONCLUSION The IMV trajectory when accessible, is the solution to the mesenteric inter-arterial stair. The surgeon could safely follow the IMV to its confluence. When the IMV trajectory is not accessible, the surgeon could follow the caudal border of the pancreas.

Accumulation of Postoperative Unexpected Events Assessed by the Comprehensive Complication Index ® as Prognostic Outcome Parameters for Kasai Procedure. CHILDREN (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 9:children9101590. [PMID: 36291526 PMCID: PMC9600743 DOI: 10.3390/children9101590] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/26/2022] [Revised: 10/13/2022] [Accepted: 10/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Introduction The Kasai procedure in children with biliary atresia (BA) is associated with several complications in the short-term. The Comprehensive Complication Index (CCI®) is a validated metric in adult surgery for the analysis of complications and morbidity in surgical patients. We aimed to analyze the CCI® for the first time in BA infants and to correlate its association with outcomes. Material and Methods We conducted a retrospective review of medical records of infants with type III BA undergoing the Kasai procedure between January 2011 and December 2021 at our institution. All unexpected events were ranked according to the Clavien−Dindo classification, and the CCI® per patient was subsequently calculated. Clavien−Dindo grades, individual events, CCI®, and total event numbers per patient were correlated with one- and two-year outcomes post-surgery. Results A total of 131 events were identified in 101 patients (ranging 0−11 per patient). Forty-four Grade I (33.6%), 67 Grade II (51.1%), 18 Grade III (13.7%), and two sentinel events [>Grade IV] (1.5%) were documented according to Clavien−Dindo, including one death in a cardiac-associated BA patient. None of the complications significantly correlated with a poor outcome. Sixty-three (62.4%) CCI® scores were calculated (range 0−100). The mean CCI® score during the in-patient treatment post-surgery was significantly higher in patients with a poorer outcome than patients with native liver survival at one- and two-year follow-up (22.7 ± 21.7 vs. 13.2 ± 18.1; p = 0.02). Conclusion Not the severity of complications, but the accumulation of numerous events related to Kasai procedure were associated with a poorer outcome. Therefore, the CCI® is an excellent instrument for the postoperative morbidity assessment of BA patients.

Ligation of left gastric vein may cause delayed gastric emptying after pancreatoduodenectomy: a retrospective study. BMC Gastroenterol 2022; 22:398. [PMID: 36008761 PMCID: PMC9414412 DOI: 10.1186/s12876-022-02478-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/01/2022] [Accepted: 08/19/2022] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Background This study aimed to determine which running pattern of the left gastric vein (LGV) is most frequently ligated in subtotal stomach-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy (SSPPD) and how LGV ligation affects delayed gastric emptying (DGE) after SSPPD. Methods We retrospectively analysed 105 patients who underwent SSPPD between January 2016 and September 2021. We classified the running pattern of LGV as follows: type 1 runs dorsal to the common hepatic artery (CHA) or splenic artery (SpA) to join the portal vein (PV), type 2 runs dorsal to the CHA or SpA and joins the splenic vein, type 3 runs ventral to the CHA or SpA and joins the PV, and type 4 runs ventral to the CHA or SpA and joins the SpV. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to identify differences between patients with and without DGE after SSPPD. Results Type 1 LGV running pattern was observed in 47 cases (44.8%), type 2 in 23 (21.9%), type 3 in 12 (11.4%), and type 4 in 23 (21.9%). The ligation rate was significantly higher in type 3 (75.0%) LGVs (p < 0.0001). Preoperative obstructive jaundice (p = 0.0306), LGV ligation (p < 0.0001), grade B or C pancreatic fistula (p = 0.0116), and sepsis (p = 0.0123) were risk factors for DGE in the univariate analysis. Multivariate analysis showed that LGV ligation was an independent risk factor for DGE (odds ratio: 13.60, 95% confidence interval: 3.80–48.68, p < 0.0001). Conclusion Type 3 LGVs are often ligated because they impede lymph node dissection; however, LGV preservation may reduce the occurrence of DGE after SSPPD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Benchmark analysis for open liver surgery for cirrhotic patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is still undefined. METHODS Patients were identified from the Italian national registry HE.RC.O.LE.S. The Achievable Benchmark of Care (ABC) method was employed to identify the benchmarks. The outcomes assessed were the rate of complications, major comorbidities, post-operative ascites (POA), post-hepatectomy liver failure (PHLF), 90-day mortality. Benchmarking was stratified for surgical complexity (CP1, CP2 and CP3). RESULTS A total of 978 of 2698 patients fulfilled the inclusion criteria. 431 (44.1%) patients were treated with CP1 procedures, 239 (24.4%) with CP2 and 308 (31.5%) with CP3 procedures. Patients submitted to CP1 had a worse underlying liver function, while the tumor burden was more severe in CP3 cases. The ABC for complications (13.1%, 19.2% and 28.1% for CP1, CP2 and CP3 respectively), major complications (7.6%, 11.1%, 12.5%) and 90-day mortality (0%, 3.3%, 3.6%) increased with the surgical difficulty, but not POA (4.4%, 3.3% and 2.6% respectively) and PHLF (0% for all groups). CONCLUSION We propose benchmarks for open liver resections in HCC cirrhotic patients, stratified for surgical complexity. The difference between the benchmark values and the results obtained during everyday practice reflects the room for potential growth, with the aim to encourage constant improvement among liver surgeons.

Abstract
To claim the features of nontumor tissue in gastric cancer patients, especially in those who have undergone gastrectomy, and to identify the molecular subtypes, we collected the immunogenic and hallmark gene sets from gene set enrichment analysis. The activity changes of these gene sets between tumor (375) and nontumor (32) tissues acquired from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA-STAD) were calculated, and the novel molecular subtypes were delineated. Subsequently, prognostic gene sets were determined using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (lasso) regression prognostic method. In addition, functional analysis was conducted. Totally, three subtypes were constructed in the present study, and there were differences in survival among three groups. Functional analysis showed genes from normal gene set were related to cell adhesion, and genes from tumor gene set were associated with focal adhesion, PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, regulation of actin cytoskeleton, and VEGF signaling pathway. Our study created lasting value beyond molecular subtypes and underscored the significance of normal tissues in gastric cancer development, which drawn a novel prognostic model for gastric treatment.

Abstract
Ephrin receptor A7 (EphA7) is a member of the Eph receptor family. It is widely involved in signal transduction between cells, regulates cell proliferation and differentiation, and participates in developing neural tubes and brain. In addition, EphA7 also has a dual role of tumor promoter and tumor suppressor. It can participate in cell proliferation, migration and apoptosis through various mechanisms, and affect tumor differentiation, staging and prognosis. EphA7 may be a potential diagnostic marker and tumor treatment target. This article reviews the effects of EphA7 on a variety of tumor biological processes and pathological characteristics, as well as specific effects and regulatory mechanisms.

BACKGROUND Laparoscopic radical antegrade modular pancreatosplenectomy (L-RAMPS) has not been widely performed due to its technical challenging. We introduce a novel approach, named "Plane first" approach, for L-RAMPS in this study. METHODS From January 2015 to August 2021, we performed 51 cases of L-RAMPS. Patients were divided into two groups basing on the surgical approach: conventional approach (group 1) and "Plane first" approach (group 2). Data were retrospectively collected in terms of demographic characteristics, intra-operative variables, post-operative variables, and follow-up outcomes. RESULTS The age, sex, BMI, and tumor size were comparable between two groups. Two patients in the group 1 required converting to open surgery. The patients in the group 2 required fewer operative time (210.5 ± 65.5 min vs. 252.4 ± 24.7 min, p < 0.01). They also suffered from less blood loss (136.0 ± 100.0 ml vs. 158.8 ± 137.0 ml, p = 0.15). The overall complications for patients in two groups were comparable. In terms of oncological outcomes, posterior margin was positive in two patients (10.5%) in the group 1. One patient (3.1%) in the group 2 had positive pancreatic neck margin. The number of lymph nodes harvested and overall survival between the two groups were comparable. CONCLUSION "Plane first" approach RAMPS for patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma in the left pancreas is safe and feasible, even in patients with PV/SMV involvement.

Abstract
In the recent years, the number of liver resections has seen an impressive growth. Usually, hepatic resections remain the treatment of various liver diseases, such as malignant tumors, benign tumors, hydatid disease, and abscesses. Despite technical advancements and tremendous experience in the field of liver resection of specialized centers, there are moderately high rates of postoperative morbidity and mortality, especially in high-risk and older patient populations. Although ultrasonography is usually the first-line imaging examination for postoperative complications, Computed Tomography (CT) is the imaging tool of choice in emergency settings due to its capability to assess the whole body in a few seconds and detect all possible complications. Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) is the imaging modality of choice for delineating early postoperative bile duct injuries and ischemic cholangitis that may arise in the late postoperative phase. Moreover, both MDCT and MRCP can precisely detect tumor recurrence. Consequently, radiologists should have knowledge of these surgical procedures for better comprehension of postoperative changes and recognition of the radiological features of various postoperative complications.

Comparison of operative outcomes between monopolar and bipolar coagulation in hepatectomy: a propensity score-matched analysis in a single center. BMC Gastroenterol 2022; 22:154. [PMID: 35351001 PMCID: PMC8962169 DOI: 10.1186/s12876-022-02231-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2022] [Accepted: 03/21/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Various hemostatic devices have been utilized to reduce blood loss during hepatectomy. Nonetheless, a comparison between monopolar and bipolar coagulation, particularly their usefulness or inferiority, has been poorly documented. The aim of this study is to reveal the characteristics of these hemostatic devices. Methods A total of 264 patients who underwent open hepatectomy at our institution from January 2009 to December 2018 were included. Monopolar and bipolar hemostatic devices were used in 160 (monopolar group) and 104 (bipolar group) cases, respectively. Operative outcomes and thermal damage to the resected specimens were compared between these groups using propensity score matching according to background factors. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify predictive factors for postoperative complications. Results After propensity score matching, 73 patients per group were enrolled. The monopolar group had significantly lower total operative time (239 vs. 275 min; P = 0.013) and intraoperative blood loss (487 vs. 790 mL; P < 0.001). However, the incidence rates of ascites (27.4% vs. 8.2%; P = 0.002) and grade ≥ 3 intra-abdominal infection (12.3% vs. 2.7%; P = 0.028) were significantly higher in the monopolar group. Thermal damage to the resected specimens was significantly longer in the monopolar group (4.6 vs. 1.2 mm; P < 0.001). Use of monopolar hemostatic device was an independent risk factor for ascites (odds ratio, 5.626, 95% confidence interval 1.881–16.827; P = 0.002) and severe intra-abdominal infection (odds ratio, 5.905, 95% confidence interval 1.096–31.825; P = 0.039). Conclusions Although monopolar devices have an excellent hemostatic ability, they might damage the remnant liver. The use of monopolar devices can be one of the factors that increase the frequency of complications.

Abstract
Postoperative complications are important indicators for evaluating surgical outcomes, and mortality and the incidence of various specific complications are often used to measure the efficacy of surgical and perioperative management strategies. With the progress of medical technology, there has been a dramatic decline in mortality and the incidence of complications. As a result, reporting and evaluation in the traditional methods no longer meets the actual needs of the world. There has arisen an urgent need for an instrument of standardized reporting and evaluation. The instrument should be aligned with the actual circumstances and should represent the patient's overall burden of postoperative complications. We herein reviewed the latest research findings on Clavien-Dindo Classification (CDC) system and comprehensive complication index (CCI), two instruments of standardized reporting and evaluation of postoperative complications, and discussed the space for improvement and prospects of application of CDC and CCI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Delayed bleeding after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is a life-threatening complication. However, the optimal management remains unclear. We summarize our experience of the management of delayed bleeding after PD and define the outcomes associated with different types of management. METHODS All patients who underwent a PD between January 1987 and June 2020 at Johns Hopkins University were retrospectively reviewed. Delayed bleeding was defined as bleeding on or after postoperative day 5 following PD. Incidence, outcomes, and trends were reported. RESULTS Among the 6201 patients that underwent PD, delayed bleeding occurred in 130 (2.1%) at a median of 12 days (IQR: 9, 24) postoperation. The pattern of bleeding was classified as intraluminal (51.5%), extraluminal (40.8%), and mixed (7.7%). A clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula and an intraabdominal abscess preceded the delayed bleeding in 43.1% and 31.5% of cases, respectively. Arterial pseudoaneurysm or bleeding from peripancreatic vessels was the most common reason (54.6%) with the gastroduodenal artery being the most common source (18.5%). Endoscopy, angiography, and reoperation were performed as a first-line approach in 35.4%, 52.3%, and 6.2% of patients, respectively. The overall mortality was 16.2% and decreased over the study period (p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Delayed bleeding following PD remains a life-threatening complication. The most common location of delayed bleeding is from the gastroduodenal artery. Angiography with embolization should be the initial approach for urgent bleeding with surgical re-exploration reserved for unstable patients or failed control of bleeding after interventional angiography or endoscopy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To compare the Clavien-Dindo classification (CDC) and the Comprehensive Complication Index (CCI) in retroperitoneal sarcoma (RPS) surgery in assessing the real burden of post-operative complications on both post-operative length of stay and total costs of hospitalization (PLOS and TCH, respectively). STUDY DESIGN A series of 417 procedures for both primary and recurrent RPS between January 2000 and December 2017 was analyzed. Complications were classified according to both CDC and CCI. Univariable linear regressions were used to assess predictors associated with PLOS and TCH. Multivariable linear regression models were constructed to identify the factors independently associated with PLOS and TCH. RESULTS Median PLOS was 10 days (interquartile range [IQR] 7-16); median TCH was 7033.5€ (IQR 1350-305.900). Post-operative complications occurred in 170/417 (40.7%) of the procedures and in 75/417 (17.9%) of the procedures CDCs >3 were identified. Sixty-four (15.34%) patients had more than one complication. Univariable linear regression showed that both PLOS and TCH were significantly associated to both CDC and CCI among other factors. Multivariable linear analyses selected CDC and CCI as independent prognostic factors for both PLOS and TCH. According to the AIC and BIC, models including CCI performed better (5559.53 and 5598.18, respectively, compared with 5561.31 and 5599.95 for CDC models). CONCLUSION The CCI resulted to perform better than the CDC in describing the overall burden of complications after RPS surgery, both for clinical and economic purposes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgical views with high resolution and magnification have enabled us to recognize the precise anatomical structures that can be used as landmarks during minimally invasive distal pancreatectomy (MIDP). This study aimed to validate the usefulness of anatomy-based approaches for MIDP before and during the Expert Consensus Meeting: Precision Anatomy for Minimally Invasive HBP Surgery (February 24, 2021). METHODS Twenty-five international MIDP experts developed clinical questions regarding surgical anatomy and approaches for MIDP. Studies identified via a comprehensive literature search were classified using Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network methodology. Online Delphi voting was conducted after experts had drafted the recommendations, with the goal of obtaining >75% consensus. Experts discussed the revised recommendations in front of the validation committee and an international audience of 384 attendees. Finalized recommendations were made after a second round of online Delphi voting. RESULTS Four clinical questions were addressed, resulting in 10 recommendations. All recommendations reached at least a 75% consensus among experts. CONCLUSIONS The expert consensus on precision anatomy for MIDP has been presented as a set of recommendations based on available evidence and expert opinions. These recommendations should guide experts and trainees in performing safe MIDP and foster its appropriate dissemination worldwide.

Abstract
According to Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer recommendations, intermediate stage hepatocellular carcinomas (stage B) are excluded from liver resection and are referred to palliative treatment. Moreover, Child-Pugh B patients are not usually candidates for liver resection. However, many hepatobiliary centers in the world manage patients with intermediate stage hepatocellular carcinoma or Child-Pugh B cirrhosis with liver resection, maintaining that hepatic resection is not contraindicated in selected patients with non–early-stage hepatocellular carcinoma and without normal liver function. Several studies demonstrate that resection provides the best survival benefit for selected patients in very early/early and even in intermediate stages of Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer classification, and this treatment gives good results in the setting of multinodular, large tumors in patients with portal hypertension and/or Child-Pugh B cirrhosis. In this review we explore this controversial topic, and we show through the literature analysis how liver resection may improve the short- and long-term survival rate of carefully selected Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer B and Child-Pugh B hepatocellular carcinoma patients. However, other large clinical studies are needed to clarify which patients with intermediate stage hepatocellular carcinoma are most likely to benefit from liver resection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Laparoscopic radical antegrade modular pancreatosplenectomy (L-RAMPS) with vascular resection for pancreatic cancer has been rarely reported in the literature. Several critical steps are required to achieve a safe radical resection under laparoscopy while respecting oncologic principles of radicality. METHODS Prospectively collected data on a consecutive series of patients undergoing radical antegrade modular pancreatosplenectomy (RAMPS) were retrospectively reviewed for the purpose of this study. Patients were divided into two groups based on the surgical approach and the need for vascular resection, and data were compared. The surgical technique is reported in detail focusing on the different modalities of vascular resection. RESULTS Twenty-three patients (male/female ratio, 12/11; mean age, 73 years) underwent RAMPS between July 2014 and October 2018 at our institution. Of these, 17 had a laparoscopic approach and six a standard open approach. All patients in the open group underwent complex vascular reconstructions while four out of 17 (23.5%) underwent laparoscopic vascular resection. One patient in the laparoscopic approach required a vascular reconstruction with graft interposition, which combined the two approaches. There was no mortality, and the complication rate and the duration of surgery were comparable between the two groups. CONCLUSION L-RAMPS with vascular resection is feasible and safe in selected cases when performed by advanced pancreatic surgeons with experience in laparoscopic surgery.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) following distal pancreatectomy (DP) remains the most frequent complication, potential precursor of more serious events, and mechanisms behind POPF development are not clear. Primary aim of the current study is to investigate correlations between patients' characteristics, including technical intraoperative data assessed by retrospective video review of laparoscopic DP (L-PD), and development of clinically relevant (CR-)POPF and major complication. METHODS Patients undergoing L-DP whose surgery video was available for review were included in this study. Retrospective video review, performed by two surgeons blinded for postoperative outcomes, was focused on pancreatic neck transection and identification of pancreatic capsule disruption (PCD)/staple line bleeding (SLB). Correlation between clinical, demographic, and intraoperative factors and CR-POPF/major complications and assessment of factors associated with PCD and SLB were investigated. RESULTS Of 41 L-DP performed at our institution (June 2015-June 2020) using a triple-row stapler (EndoGIA™ Reloads with Tri-Staple™), surgery video was available for 38 patients [men/women, 13/25; median age (range) 62 (25-84) years; median BMI (range) 24 (17-42)]. PCD and SLB occurred in 15(39%) and 19(50%) patients and were concomitant in 9(24%). CR-POPF and major complications occurred in 8(21%) and 12(31%) patients, respectively. PCD, SLB, and PCD + SLB rates were significantly higher among patients with CR-POPF, compared to patients without (all p < 0.05). Among patients with PCD, pancreatic thickness at pancreatic transection site was higher (19 mm), compared to non-PCD patients (13 mm, p < 0.001). A directly proportional relation between PCD, CR-POPF, and major complication rate and pancreatic thickness was confirmed by ROC analysis (AUC = 0.949, 0.798, and 0.740, respectively). CONCLUSION PCD and SLB close to the staple line detected by retrospective video-review are intraoperatively detectable indicators of severe pancreatic traumatism and a potential precursors of CR-POPF following L-PD. Given the strict correlation between PCD and pancreatic thickness, alternative techniques to stapled closure for pancreatic transection may be recommended for patients with a thick pancreas and modification in postoperative care may be considered in patients with PCD/SLB.
