Abstract
The REDISCOVER guidelines present 34 recommendations for the selection and perioperative care of borderline-resectable (BR-PDAC) and locally advanced ductal adenocarcinoma of the pancreas (LA-PDAC). These guidelines represent a significant shift from previous approaches, prioritizing tumor biology over anatomical features as the primary indication for resection. Condensed herein, they provide a practical management algorithm for clinical practice. However, the guidelines also highlight the need to redefine LA-PDAC to align with modern treatment strategies and to solve some contradictions within the current definition, such as grouping "difficult" and "impossible" to resect tumors together. Furthermore, the REDISCOVER guidelines highlight several areas requiring urgent research. These include the resection of the superior mesenteric artery, the management strategies for patients with LA-PDAC who are fit for surgery but unable to receive multi-agent neoadjuvant chemotherapy, the approach to patients with LA-PDAC who are fit for surgery but demonstrate high serum Ca 19.9 levels even after neoadjuvant treatment, and the optimal timing and number of chemotherapy cycles prior to surgery. Additionally, the role of primary chemoradiotherapy versus chemotherapy alone in LA-PDAC, the timing of surgical resection post-neoadjuvant/primary chemoradiotherapy, the efficacy of ablation therapies, and the management of oligometastasis in patients with LA-PDAC warrant investigation. Given the limited evidence for many issues, refining existing management strategies is imperative. The establishment of the REDISCOVER registry ( https://rediscover.unipi.it/ ) offers promise of a unified research platform to advance understanding and improve the management of BR-PDAC and LA-PDAC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Advances in perioperative chemotherapy have improved outcomes in patients with gastric cancers (GC). This strategy leads to tumour downstaging and may result in a pathologic complete response (pCR). The study aimed to evaluate the predictors of pCR and determine the impact of pCR on long-term survival. METHODS At the Department of Gastrointestinal and HPB Oncology at the Tata Memorial Centre, Mumbai, 1001 consecutive patients with locally advanced GCs undergoing radical resection following neoadjuvant chemotherapy from January 2005 to June 2022 were included. RESULTS At a median follow-up of 61 months, the median OS was 53 months with a 5-year OS of 46.8 %. Ninety-five patients (9.49 %) realized pCR. Non-signet and well-differentiated histology were associated with pCR. pCR was significantly associated with improved OS, 5-year OS 79.2 % vs 43.2 % (HR 0.30, p < 0.001). On multivariable analysis, the realization of pCR and completion of adjuvant chemotherapy had superior OS. Whereas, signet-ring histology, linitis-like tumours, and high lymph node ratio had adverse outcomes. CONCLUSION Tumour grade and signet-ring histology predict achievement of pCR in locally advanced GCs after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Patients with pCR have significantly improved survival. Future neoadjuvant strategies should focus on enhancing pCR rates to improve overall outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is a technically complex operation, with a relatively high risk for complications. The ability to rescue patients from post-PD complications is as a recognized quality measure. Tailored protocols were instituted at our low volume facility in the year 2013. AIM To document the rate of rescue from post-PD complications with tailored protocols in place as a measure of quality. METHODS A retrospective audit was performed to collect data from patients who experienced major post-PD complications at a low volume pancreatic surgery unit in Trinidad and Tobago between January 1, 2013 and June 30, 2023. Standardized definitions from the International Study Group of Pancreatic Surgery were used to define post-PD complications, and the modified Clavien-Dindo classification was used to classify post-PD complications. RESULTS Over the study period, 113 patients at a mean age of 57.5 years (standard deviation [SD] ± 9.23; range: 30-90; median: 56) underwent PDs at this facility. Major complications were recorded in 33 (29.2%) patients at a mean age of 53.8 years (SD: ± 7.9). Twenty-nine (87.9%) patients who experienced major morbidity were salvaged after aggressive treatment of their complication. Four (3.5%) died from bleeding pseudoaneurysm (1), septic shock secondary to a bile leak (1), anastomotic leak (1), and myocardial infarction (1). There was a significantly greater salvage rate in patients with American Society of Anesthesiologists scores ≤ 2 (93.3% vs 25%; P = 0.0024). CONCLUSION This paper adds to the growing body of evidence that volume alone should not be used as a marker of quality for patients requiring PD. Despite low volumes at our facility, we demonstrated that 87.9% of patients were rescued from major complications. We attributed this to several factors including development of rescue protocols, the competence of the pancreatic surgery teams and continuous, and adaptive learning by the entire institution, culminating in the development of tailored peri-pancreatectomy protocols.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Notable improvements in pancreatic cancer surgery have been due to utilization of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA)-first approach1 and triangle operation (clearance of triangle tissue between origin of SMA and celiac artery).2 The SMA-first approach was originally defined to assess resectability before taking the irreversible surgical steps. However, in the present era, resectability is judged by the preoperative radiology, and the benefit of the SMA-first approach is by improving the R0 resection rate and reducing blood loss. The basic principle is to identify the SMA at its origin and in the distal part, to guide the plane of uncinate dissection. This video demonstrates the combination of the posterior and right medial SMA-first approach along with triangle clearance during robotic pancreaticoduodenectomy (RPD). METHODS The technique consisted of early dissection of SMA from the posterior aspect, by performing a Kocher maneuver using the 'posterior SMA-first approach'. The origin of the celiac artery, along with the SMA, was defined early in the surgery. During uncinate process dissection, the 'right/medial uncinate approach' was used to approach the SMA. 'Level 3 systematic mesopancreatic dissection' was performed along the SMA,3 culminating in the 'triangle operation'.2 RESULTS: The procedure was performed within 600 min, with a blood loss of 150 mL and no intraoperative or postoperative complications. The final histopathology report showed a moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma (pT2, pN2), with all resection margins free. CONCLUSION The standardized technique of the SMA-first approach and triangle clearance during RPD is demonstrated in the video. Prospective studies should further evaluate the benefits of this procedure.

Abstract
PURPOSE Central pancreatectomy (CP) offers parenchymal preservation compared to conventional distal pancreato-splenectomy for pancreatic neck and body tumours. However, it is associated with more morbidity. This study is aimed at evaluating the peri-operative and long-term functional outcomes, comparing central and distal pancreatectomies (DPs). METHODS Retrospective analysis of patients undergoing pancreatic resections for low-grade malignant or benign tumours in pancreatic neck and body was performed (from January 2007 to December 2022). Preoperative imaging was reviewed for all cases, and only patients with uninvolved pancreatic tail, whereby a CP was feasible, were included. Peri-operative outcomes and long-term functional outcomes were compared between CP and DP. RESULTS One hundred twenty-two (5.2%) patients, amongst the total of 2304 pancreatic resections, underwent central or distal pancreatectomy for low-grade malignant or benign tumours. CP was feasible in 55 cases, of which 23 (42%) actually underwent CP and the remaining 32 (58%) underwent DP. CP group had a significantly longer operative time [370 min (IQR 300-480) versus 300 min (IQR 240-360); p = 0.002]; however, the major morbidity (43.5% versus 37.5%; p = 0.655) and median hospital stay (10 versus 11 days; p = 0.312) were comparable. The long-term endocrine functional outcome was favourable for the CP group [endocrine insufficiency rate was 13.6% in central versus 42.8% in distal (p = 0.046)]. CONCLUSION Central pancreatectomy offers better long-term endocrine function without any increased morbidity in low malignant potential or benign pancreatic tumours of neck and body region.

Abstract
Pancreatic resections, depending on the location of the tumor, usually require division of the vasculature of either the distal or proximal part of the stomach. In certain situations, such as total pancreatectomy and/or with splenic vein occlusion, viability of the stomach may be threatened due to inadequate venous drainage. We discuss three cases of complex pancreatic surgeries performed for carcinoma of the pancreas at a tertiary care center in India, wherein the stomach was salvaged by reimplanting the veins in two patients and preserving the only draining collateral in one case after the gastric venous drainage was compromised. The perioperative and postoperative course in these patients and the complications were analyzed. None of these 3 patients developed any complication related to gastric venous congestion, and additional gastrectomy was avoided in all these patients. Re-establishment of the Gastric venous outflow after extensive pancreatic resections helps to avoid additional gastric resection secondary to venous congestive changes.

Abstract
PURPOSE GISTs arising from organs outside GI tract are defined as extragastrointestinal GISTs (EGIST). The majority of EGISTs arise from small intestinal mesentry, mesocolon, omentum, retroperitoneum, abdominal wall, liver and pancreas with pancreas comprising less than 5% of it. Due to limited data, it is unknown if the results of GIST can be generalised for EGISTs. We thereby present the largest single-centre case series of primary pancreatic GIST so far with review of existing literature. METHODS A total of 9 patients of primary pancreatic GIST were treated at our institute from September 2016 to February 2023. After literature search for all studies published before February 2023, 51 articles including 57 patients were identified. Their clinicopathological data and survival analysis were assessed. RESULTS The median age of patients treated at our centre was 53 years with a female predominance. The most common epicentre was pancreatic head with abdominal pain as the most common presenting symptom. All 57 patients documented in literature belonged to a similar age group with similar gender predilection. The factors impacting DFS were histologic type, mitotic index, NIH risk category and adjuvant therapy. The median DFS was 74 months with a 5-year DFS being 71.9%, while the 5-year OS was 90.4%. CONCLUSION Pancreatic GIST is a rare entity. Due to limited evidence and evolving literature, results cannot be generalised to a larger population. Larger case series with longer follow-up data are required to further understand the disease biology and long-term outcomes of pancreatic GIST.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Uptake of ERAS® pathways for pancreatic surgery have been slow and impacted by low compliance. OBJECTIVE To explore global awareness, perceptions and practice of ERAS® peri-pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). METHODS A structured, web-based survey (EPSILON) was administered through the ERAS® society and IHPBA membership. RESULTS The 140 respondents included predominantly males (86.4%), from Europe (45%), practicing surgery (95%) at academic/teaching hospitals (63.6%) over a period of 10-20 years (38.6%). Most respondents identified themselves as general surgeons (68.6%) with 40.7% reporting an annual PD volume of 20-50 cases, practicing post-PD clinical pathways (37.9%), with 31.4% of respondents auditing their outcomes annually. Reduced medical complications, cost and hospital length of stay, and improved patient satisfaction were perceived benefits of compliance to enhancing-recovery. Multidisciplinary co-ordination was considered the most important factor in the implementation and sustainability of peri-PD ERAS® pathways, while reluctance to change among health care practitioners, difficulties in data collection and audit, lack of administrative support, and recruitment of an ERAS® dedicated nurse were reported to be important barriers. CONCLUSIONS The EPSILON survey highlighted global clinician perceptions regarding the benefits of compliance to peri-PD ERAS®, the importance of individual components, perceived facilitators and barriers, to the implementation and sustainability of these pathways.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is limited data from India with regard to presentation, practice patterns and survivals in resected pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDACs). METHODS The Multicentre Indian Pancreatic & Periampullary Adenocarcinoma Project (MIPPAP) included data from 8 major academic institutions across India and presents the outcomes in upfront resected PDACs from January 2015 to June 2019. RESULTS Of 288 patients, R0 resection was achieved in 81% and adjuvant therapy was administered in 75% of patients. With a median follow-up of 42 months (95% CI: 39-45), median DFS for the entire cohort was 39 months (95% CI: 25.4-52.5), and median overall survival (OS) was 45 months (95% CI: 32.3-57.7). A separate analysis was done in which patients were divided into 3 groups: (a) those with stage I and absent PNI (SI&PNI-), (b) those with either stage II/III OR presence of PNI (SII/III/PNI+), and (c) those with stage II/III AND presence of PNI (SII/III&PNI+). The DFS was significantly lesser in patients with SII/III&PNI+ (median 25, 95% CI: 14.1-35.9 months), compared to SII/III/PNI + (median 40, 95% CI: 24-55 months) and SI&PNI- (median, not reached) (p = 0.036)). CONCLUSIONS The MIPPAP study shows that resectable PDACs in India have survivals at par with previously published data. Adjuvant therapy was administered in 75% patients. Adjuvant radiotherapy does not seem to add to survival after R0 resection.

Abstract
Randomized controlled clinical trials (RCTs) are at the heart of "evidence-based" medicine. Conducting well-designed RCTs for surgical procedures is often challenged by inadequate recruitment accrual, blinding, or standardization of the surgical procedure, as well as lack of funding and evolution of the treatment strategy during the many years over which such trials are conducted. In addition, most clinical trials are performed in academic high-volume centers with highly selected patients, which may not necessarily reflect a "real-world" practice setting. Large databases provide easy and inexpensive access to data on a large and diverse patient population at a variety of treatment centers. Furthermore, large database studies provide the opportunity to answer questions that would be impossible or very arduous to answer using RCTs, including questions regarding health policy efficacy, trends in surgical practice, access to health care, the impact of hospital volume, and adherence to practice guidelines, as well as research questions regarding rare disease, infrequent surgical outcomes, and specific subpopulations. Prospective data registries may also allow for quality benchmarking and auditing. There are several high-quality RCTs providing evidence to support current practices in hepatopancreatobiliary (HPB) oncology. Evidence from big data bridges the gap in several instances where RCTs are lacking. In this article, we review the evidence from RCTs and big data in HPB oncology identify the existing lacunae, and discuss the future directions of research in HPB oncology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES There is limited real-world data on the efficacy of 2-weekly cycles of docetaxel, oxaliplatin, leucovorin, and fluorouracil (FLOT) compared to epirubicin, oxaliplatin, and capecitabine (EOX) as perioperative therapy in esophagogastric adenocarcinomas (EGAC). METHODS The data of 611 patients with EGAC treated with perioperative chemotherapy and planned for curative resection between January 2013 and December 2019 were retrieved. Patients receiving EOX and a dose-modified version of FLOT (mFLOT) were evaluated. A 1:1 matching, using age, tumour location, signet ring histology, and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status, without replacement was performed by using nearest neighbour matching method. The primary endpoint of the study was 3-year event-free survival (EFS). RESULTS A total of 593 patients (261 with EOX and 332 with mFLOT) were matched. One hundred and nighty-eight patients (76%) and 285 patients (86%) in the EOX and mFLOT cohorts underwent curative resection, respectively (p = 0.002). With a median follow-up of 35 and 53 months, respectively, the primary outcome of 3-year EFS was statistically superior in patients receiving mFLOT as compared to the EOX regimen (60% vs. 39%; p < 0.001). There was a greater incidence of grade 3 and grade 4 neutropenia (neoadjuvant: 18% vs. 2%; p < 0.001, adjuvant: 18% vs. 1%; p = 0.001) and febrile neutropenia (neoadjuvant: 8% vs. 1.1%; p < 0.001, adjuvant: 6% vs. 0; p = 0.001) with mFLOT. INTERPRETATION AND CONCLUSION mFLOT is associated with improved resection rates and survival in comparison to EOX as perioperative therapy in gastric adenocarcinomas in this large real-world cohort, with manageable increase in clinically relevant toxicities such as grade 3 and grade 4 febrile neutropenia and neutropenia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Portal Annular Pancreas (PAP) is a relatively uncommon entity with 4% reported incidence. Pancreaticoduodenectomy is challenging in cases with PAP and is associated with higher postoperative pancreatic fistula rate and overall morbidity. PAP is classified according to the pattern and location of fusion around the portal vein as-supra-splenic, infra-splenic & mixed fusion type. Also, the ductal anatomy can vary as pancreatic duct present only in the ante-portal portion or only in the retro-portal portion or ducts in both ante and retro-portal portion. At present, ideal surgical strategy is not defined as per the PAP types. METHODS The case demonstrated in the video presented with a localized, large duodenal mass with type IIA PAP (supra-splenic fusion with both ante and retro-portal ducts) detected on the preoperative triphasic CT scan. To achieve a single pancreatic cut surface with a single pancreatic duct for anastomosis, an extended pancreatic resection was performed using meso-pancreas triangle approach. RESULTS Patient had a smooth intraoperative course & the postoperative recovery was also uneventful. Pathology reported pT3 duodenal cancer with negative margins and uninvolved lymph nodes. CONCLUSION A preoperative knowledge of PAP and its various types is extremely important in order to tailor intraoperative management, specially of the retro-portal portion. In patients with retro-portal duct or both ante and retro-portal ducts (as the case presented in the video), an extended resection is recommended to mitigate postoperative pancreatic fistula.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (pNETs) have an excellent long-term survival after resection, but are associated with a high recurrence rate. Identification of prognostic factors affecting recurrences would enable identifying subgroup of patients at higher risk of recurrences, who may benefit from more aggressive treatment. METHODS A retrospective analysis of prospectively maintained database of patients undergoing pancreatectomy with curative intent for grade I and II pNETs between July 2007 and June 2021 was performed. Perioperative and long-term outcomes were analysed. RESULTS A total of 68 resected patients of pNETs were included in this analysis. Fifty-two patients (76.47%) underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy, 10 (14.7%) patients had distal pancreatectomy, and 2 (2.9%) patients underwent median pancreatectomy, while enucleation was performed in 4 patients (5.8%). The overall major morbidity (Clavien-Dindo III/IV) and mortality rates were 33.82% and 2.94%, respectively. At a median follow-up period of 48 months, 22 (32.35%) patients had disease recurrence. The 5-year overall survival and 5-year recurrence-free survival (RFS) rates were 90.2% and 60.8%, respectively. While OS was unaffected by different prognostic factors, multivariate analysis showed that lymph node involvement, Ki-67 index ≥5%, and presence of perineural invasion (PNI) were independently associated with recurrence. CONCLUSIONS While surgical resection gives excellent overall survival in grade I/II pNETs, lymph node positivity, higher Ki-67 index, and PNI are associated with a high risk for recurrence. Patients with these characteristics should be stratified as high risk and evaluated for more intensive follow-up and aggressive treatment strategies in future prospective studies.

Abstract
Background Rapid on-site examination (ROSE) during endoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle biopsy (EUS-FNB) has been a subject of debate. We compared the yield of EUS-FNB with adequacy assessed using macroscopic on-site evaluation (MOSE), and smear cytology with adequacy confirmed by ROSE, acquired using the same needle. Methods Consecutive patients with solid pancreatic lesions (SPLs) who underwent EUS-FNB of pancreatic solid lesions between January 2021 and July 2022 were included. Demographic details, site and size of lesion, number of passes, and the diagnosis by cytology and histopathology of core tissue were noted. The first pass was used for ROSE adequacy assessment and was subsequently sent for cytological assessment. Additional passes were taken subsequently to acquire core tissue. Adequacy was confirmed by MOSE (whitish core of more than 4 mm). Final cytology and histopathology (HPE) were compared for diagnostic accuracy. Results One hundred fifty-five patients were included in the analysis during the study period (mean age 55.1+12.9 years; 60% male; 77% in pancreatic head; median size 3.7 cm). The final diagnosis was malignancy in 129, while 26 were negative for malignancy. Sensitivity and specificity for ROSE with cytology in detecting malignant SPLs were 96.9% and 100%, respectively. HPE with MOSE had sensitivity and specificity of 96.1% and 100%, respectively. A comparison of diagnostic accuracy showed no significant difference (P>0.99) between HPE with MOSE and ROSE with cytology, using an FNB needle. Conclusion MOSE is as good as ROSE in terms of diagnostic yield for solid pancreatic lesions sampled using newer-generation EUS biopsy needles.

Abstract
Cancer is an increasing global public health burden. Lately, more emphasis has emerged on the importance of heredity in cancer, mostly driven by the introduction of germline genetic variants-directed therapeutics. It is true that 40% of cancer risk is attributed to modifiable environmental and lifestyle factors; still, 16% of cancers could be heritable, accounting for 2.9 of the 18.1 million cases diagnosed worldwide. At least two third of those will be diagnosed in countries with limited resources-low- and middle-income countries, especially where high rates of consanguine marriage and early age at diagnosis are already prevalent. Both are hallmarks of hereditary cancer. This creates a new opportunity for prevention, early detection, and recently therapeutic intervention. However, this opportunity is challenged by many obstacles along the path to addressing germline testing in patients with cancer in the clinic worldwide. Global collaboration and expertise exchange are important to bridge the knowledge gap and facilitate practical implementation. Adapting existing guidelines and prioritization according to local resources are essential to address the unique needs and overcome the unique barriers of each society.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Anastomotic suturing is the Achilles heel of pancreatic surgery. Especially in laparoscopic and robotically assisted surgery, the pancreatic anastomosis should first be trained outside the operating room. Realistic training models are therefore needed. METHODS Models of the pancreas, small bowel, stomach, bile duct, and a realistic training torso were developed for training of anastomoses in pancreatic surgery. Pancreas models with soft and hard textures, small and large ducts were incrementally developed and evaluated. Experienced pancreatic surgeons (n = 44) evaluated haptic realism, rigidity, fragility of tissues, and realism of suturing and knot tying. RESULTS In the iterative development process the pancreas models showed high haptic realism and highest realism in suturing (4.6 ± 0.7 and 4.9 ± 0.5 on 1-5 Likert scale, soft pancreas). The small bowel model showed highest haptic realism (4.8 ± 0.4) and optimal wall thickness (0.1 ± 0.4 on -2 to +2 Likert scale) and suturing behavior (0.1 ± 0.4). The bile duct models showed optimal wall thickness (0.3 ± 0.8 and 0.4 ± 0.8 on -2 to +2 Likert scale) and optimal tissue fragility (0 ± 0.9 and 0.3 ± 0.7). CONCLUSION The biotissue training models showed high haptic realism and realistic suturing behavior. They are suitable for realistic training of anastomoses in pancreatic surgery which may improve patient outcomes.

Abstract
AbstractPancreatic cancer is the fourth most prevalent cause of cancer-related death worldwide, with a fatality rate equal to its incidence rate. Pancreatic cancer is a rare malignancy with a global incidence and death ranking of 14th and 7th, respectively. Pancreatic cancer cases are divided into three categories without metastatic disease: resectable, borderline resectable, or locally advanced disease. The category is determined by the tumor's location in the pancreas and whether it is abutting or encasing the adjacent arteries and/or vein/s.The stage of disease and the location of the primary tumor determine the clinical presentation: the pancreatic head, neck, or uncinate process, the body or tail, or multifocal disease. Imaging plays a crucial role in the diagnosis and follow-up of pancreatic cancers. Various imaging modalities available for pancreatic imaging are ultrasonography (USG), contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and 18-fluoro-deoxy glucose positron emission tomography (FDG PET).Even though surgical resection is possible in both resectable and borderline resectable non-metastatic cases, neoadjuvant chemotherapy with or without radiotherapy has become the standard practice for borderline resectable cases as it gives a high yield of R0 resection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Frozen Sections (FS) are used to assess margins, for staging, and primary diagnosis. FS guide intraoperative treatment decisions in oncological gastro-intestinal tract surgeries and further management of the patients. AIM To analyze the distribution, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and accuracy of frozen sections in gastrointestinal pathology in our institution during the period of 3 years (2016-2018). MATERIAL AND METHODS This study was an audit to determine the accuracy of FS reports by comparing them with the paraffin section (PS) reports. The FS diagnoses and their PS diagnoses were noted in 1704 gastrointestinal surgeries during the period from 2016 to 2018. Discrepancies were noted and slides of discrepant cases were reviewed to determine the cause. Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and accuracy were calculated using the standard formulae. RESULTS Out of 1704 cases, correct diagnosis on frozen section was made in 1649 cases (96.77%), 20 (1.17%) were deferred cases, and 35 (2.05%) were discrepant cases. The commonest discrepancies were seen in the primary diagnosis of the gall bladder and gastrectomy margins. The commonest causes for discrepancies were interpretation errors and technical errors. Sensitivity was 91.71%, specificity was 99.69%, positive predictive value was 98.84%, negative predictive value was 97.68%, and accuracy was 97.92%. CONCLUSION FS diagnosis is a reliable guide to surgeons for intraoperative management. Studying deep cuts and careful sampling at frozen sections will help reduce discrepancies.

Abstract
Purpose To understand the actual impact of the Covid-19 pandemic and frame the future strategies, we conducted a pan India survey to study the impact on the surgical management of gastrointestinal cancers. Methods A national multicentre survey in the form of a questionnaire from 16 tertiary care gastrointestinal oncology centres across India was conducted from January 2019 to June 2021 that was divided into a 15-month pre-Covid era and a similar period of active Covid pandemic era. Results There was significant disruption of services; 13 (81%) centres worked as dedicated Covid care centres and 43% reported suspension of essential care for more than 6 months. In active Covid phase, there was a 14.5% decrease in registrations and proportion of decrease was highest in the centres from South zone (22%). There was decrease in resections across all organ systems; maximum reduction was noted in hepatic resections (33%) followed by oesophageal and gastric resections (31 and 25% respectively). There was minimal decrease in colorectal resections (5%). A total of 584 (7.1%) patients had either active Covid-19 infection or developed infection in the post-operative period or had recovered from Covid-19 infection. Only 3 (18%) centres reported higher morbidity, while the rest of the centres reported similar or lower morbidity rates when compared to pre-Covid phase; however, 6 (37%) centres reported slightly higher mortality in the active Covid phase. Conclusion
Covid-19 pandemic resulted in significant reduction in new cancer registrations and elective gastrointestinal cancer surgeries. Perioperative morbidity remained similar despite 7.1% perioperative Covid 19 exposure. Supplementary Information The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s00423-022-02675-6.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pretherapy serum neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and lymphocyte to monocyte ratio (LMR) have been shown to predict prognosis in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). However, the published literature is conflicting; hence, we aimed to evaluate their role in predicting survival outcomes in operated patients of PDAC. METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed in all operated cases of PDAC who underwent curative resection between 2011 and 2018. The pretherapy NLR, PLR, and LMR were calculated and analyzed with respect to pathological and survival outcomes RESULTS: One hundred thirty-four operated patients were included. The median overall survival for NLR of less than 2, 2.7, and 5 was 30.8, 27.2, and 27.5 months and for NLR of more than 2, 2.7, and 5 was 22.9, 21.6, and 21.5 months, respectively, and was statistically insignificant (p-value-0.32, 0.91, 0.34, respectively). Similarly, the PLR was not significant for a cutoff of 150 (p-value-0.27), and LMR was not significant for a cutoff of 2.8 (p-value-0.13) and 4.8 (p-value-0.11). On univariate analysis age, CA 19-9 levels, perineural invasion, margin positivity, lymph node positivity, and TNM stage were found to have a significant correlation with overall survival. However, on multivariate analysis, only TNM stage was found to be significant. CONCLUSION The NLR, PLR, and LMR do not correlate with overall survival in operated patients with PDAC in this study. A combination of inflammatory markers or their dynamic testing might probably achieve prognostic significance.

Abstract
Localized mesothelioma is a rare disease with very few reports of presentation in visceral organs. We report a case of localized gastric mesothelioma with lymph node metastasis in a 32-year-old man without asbestos exposure. A failed attempt at resection was made before presentation at another center. He was given perioperative chemotherapy that was followed by a D2 radical subtotal gastrectomy and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy. Histopathology showed epithelioid mesothelioma with nodal metastasis but without visceral peritoneal involvement. Cytoreductive surgery and regional chemotherapy are standard in diffuse mesothelioma. Management of localized mesothelioma is anecdotal; however aggressive surgery plays a central role with selective use of perioperative chemotherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In India, as elsewhere, the incidence of gall-bladder cancer (GBC) is substantially higher in women than in men. Yet, the relevance of reproductive factors to GBC remains poorly understood. METHODS We used logistic regression adjusted for age, education and area to examine associations between reproductive factors and GBC risk, using 790 cases of histologically confirmed GBC and group-matched 1726 visitor controls. We tested the interaction of these associations by genetic variants known to increase the risk of GBC. RESULTS Parity was strongly positively associated with GBC risk: each additional pregnancy was associated with an ∼25% higher risk {odds ratio [OR] 1.26 [95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.17-1.37]}. After controlling for parity, GBC risk was weakly positively associated with later age of menarche [postmenopausal women, OR 1.11 (95% CI 1.00-1.22) per year], earlier menopause [OR 1.03 (95% CI 1.00-1.06) per year] and shorter reproductive lifespan [OR 1.04 (95% CI 1.01-1.07) per year], but there was little evidence of an association with breastfeeding duration or years since last pregnancy. Risk alleles of single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the ABCB4 and ABCB1 genetic regions had a multiplicative effect on the association with parity, but did not interact with other reproductive factors. CONCLUSIONS We observed higher GBC risk with higher parity and shorter reproductive lifespan, suggesting an important role for reproductive and hormonal factors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The 8th edition of AJCC TNM staging of Gallbladder cancer subdivided T2 stage into T2a and T2b based on tumour location. This meta-analysis aimed to investigate the long-term outcomes in T2a and T2b gallbladder cancers. METHODS Literature search of Medline, Web of science, Embase and Cochrane databases was performed. Study characteristics, survival and recurrence data were extracted for meta-analysis of effect estimates and of individual patient data. RESULTS Fifteen retrospective studies (2531 patients, T2a = 1332, T2b = 199) were included in the meta-analysis. Overall survival (OS) was significantly worse in patients with T2b compared to T2a tumours (HR 2.18, 95% CI 1.67-2.86, p < 0.0001). Meta-analysis of individual patient data (n = 629) showed similar results (HR 1.92, 95% CI 1.43-2.58, p < 0.00001). Patients with T2b tumours had higher risk of recurrence compared to T2a (OR 3.19, 95% CI 1.40-7.28, p = 0.006) and were more likely to receive adjuvant chemotherapy (OR 1.76, 95% CI 1.12-2.84, p = 0.014). Liver resection improved OS in T2b tumours (HR 2.99, CI 1.73-5.16, p < 0.0001). CONCLUSION T2b gallbladder tumours have worse overall survival and increase risk of recurrence compared to T2a. Liver resection appears to improve OS in patients with T2b tumours. However, high quality multicenter data is required to confirm these results.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Neoadjuvant therapy (NAT) is increasingly being used in the management of borderline resectable pancreatic cancer (BRPC). We compared the outcomes of patients with BRPC treated either with upfront surgery (UPS) or NAT to assess whether increased use of NAT has helped improve perioperative and long-term outcomes. METHODS Prospectively maintained database of 201 consecutive patients with BRPC treated at Tata Memorial Center, India, from 2007-2019 was analyzed. RESULTS NAT was offered to 148 patients and 53 were planned for UPS. Progression on NAT was seen in 47 (31.8%) patients. Resection was performed in 103 patients (51.24%). The resection rate was significantly lower after NAT as compared with upfront explorations (42.56% vs 75.47%, P = .00) however, R0 resection rate after NAT was significantly better (74.6% vs 42.5%, P = .001). NAT group showed a significant decrease in the pT stage (P = .004), node positivity (60%-31.7%, P = .005%), and perineural invasion (70%-41.6% P = .026). There was no significant difference in the median overall survival (OS) of patients offered NAT versus UPS on an intention-to-treat basis (15 vs 18 months P = .431). However, OS (22 vs 19 months, P = .205) and disease-free survival (DFS) (16 vs 11 months, P = .135) were higher for resected patients in the NAT group and OS was significantly superior in patients completing the course of treatment (34 vs 22 months, P = .010) CONCLUSION: The progression rate with NAT in patients with BPRC was 31.8%. NAT was associated with significant pathologic downstaging, improvement in R0 resection rate, and survival in resected patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The ISGPS aimed to develop a universally accepted definition for PPAP for standardized reporting and outcome comparison. BACKGROUND PPAP is an increasingly recognized complication after partial pancreatic resections, but its incidence and clinical impact, and even its existence are variable because an internationally accepted consensus definition and grading system are lacking. METHODS The ISGPS developed a consensus definition and grading of PPAP with its members after an evidence review and after a series of discussions and multiple revisions from April 2020 to May 2021. RESULTS We defined PPAP as an acute inflammatory condition of the pancreatic remnant beginning within the first 3 postoperative days after a partial pancreatic resection. The diagnosis requires (1) a sustained postoperative serum hyperamylasemia (POH) greater than the institutional upper limit of normal for at least the first 48 hours postoperatively, (2) associated with clinically relevant features, and (3) radiologic alterations consistent with PPAP. Three different PPAP grades were defined based on the clinical impact: (1) grade postoperative hyperamylasemia, biochemical changes only; (2) grade B, mild or moderate complications; and (3) grade C, severe life-threatening complications. DISCUSSIONS The present definition and grading scale of PPAP, based on biochemical, radiologic, and clinical criteria, are instrumental for a better understanding of PPAP and the spectrum of postoperative complications related to this emerging entity. The current terminology will serve as a reference point for standard assessment and lend itself to developing specific treatments and prevention strategies.

Abstract
A major shift in the approach to the management of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinomas (PDACs) has been the recognition of the systemic nature of the disease even in clinically and radiologically limited disease stages. The recalcitrant nature of PDAC is intrinsically related to the lack of therapeutic targets and dense surrounding stroma that limits the activity of currently available chemotherapeutic options. However, research is increasingly focusing on intensifying systemic management options in PDAC, resulting in gradual improvements in survival. Currently effective chemotherapeutic regimens like modified 5-fluorouracil-leucovorin-irinotecan-oxaliplatin and gemcitabine-nab-paclitaxel have improved outcomes in resectable and advanced PDAC. An increasing use of these regimens has also resulted in greater conversion of borderline resectable and locally advanced cancers to resection, though the most effective approach in this subgroup is yet to be identified. The current review presents an outline of the basic systemic nature of PDAC and current options of systemic therapy, predominantly chemotherapy .

Abstract
Abstract
Purpose Perioperative chemotherapy with fluorouracil plus leucovorin, oxaliplatin, and docetaxel (FLOT) is a current standard of care for locoregionally advanced gastric adenocarcinomas. There is limited real world data with regard to the tolerance and efficacy of this regimen.
Materials and Methods This is a retrospective analysis of gastric cancer patients who were offered neoadjuvant perioperative modified FLOT regimen between December 2016 and October 2018, at the Tata Memorial Hospital, Mumbai. Chemotherapy-related side-effects are reported along with overall survival (OS), as calculated by Kaplan-Meier method.
Results Three hundred and forty-three consecutive patients were started on neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) with mFLOT of which 298 patients (87%) completed the planned treatment. A total of 294 patients (86%) underwent curative resection of gastric cancer. Common grade 3 and grade 4 toxicities during NACT were diarrhea in 42 patients (12%) and febrile neutropenia in 27 patients (8%). Toxic death was seen in nine (2.6%) patients. A total of 264 patients (77%) completed planned adjuvant chemotherapy. Common grade 3 and grade 4 toxicities during adjuvant therapy were diarrhea in 42 patients (12%) and febrile neutropenia in 16 patients (6%). With a median follow-up of 19 months, the estimated 2-year median OS was 69.4%.
Conclusion Administration of modified FLOT regimen in locoregionally advanced gastric cancers is feasible in clinical practice with high completion rates, though requiring dose modifications due to the incidence of clinically relevant grade 3 to 5 toxicities. Early outcomes with the regimen are on par with survivals from the FLOT-AIO study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Standard pancreatic resections (SPRs) might have long-term deleterious effects on pancreatic function, without added oncological advantage in low malignant potential (LMP) or benign neoplasms. This study aimed to evaluate outcomes following organ-preserving pancreatic resections (OPPARs) and SPRs. METHOD Post hoc analysis of patients undergoing OPPAR or SPR for benign or LMP pancreatic tumors from January 2011 to January 2020 at Tata Memorial Hospital, Mumbai. RESULTS Thirty-six and 114 patients were identified in OPPAR and SPR groups respectively. The overall morbidity (58.3% vs 43.9%, p-0.129) was comparable. Major morbidity (41.7% vs 21.9%, p-0.020), post-operative pancreatic fistula (POPF) (63.9% vs 35.1%, p-0.002), and clinically relevant POPF (41.7% vs 20.2%, p-0.010) were significantly higher with OPPAR. Post-operative endocrine insufficiency (14.9% vs 11.1%, p-0.567), exocrine insufficiency (19.3% vs 0%, p-0.004), and requirement of long-term pancreatic enzyme replacement (17.5% vs 0%, p-0.007) were higher in SPRs. Comparing left-sided and right-sided resections in the entire cohort, incidence of endocrine insufficiency was 17.1% vs 11.2% (p-0.299) and that of exocrine insufficiency was 8.6% vs 20% (p-0.048) respectively. CONCLUSION OPPAR is associated with high post-operative major morbidity and pancreatic fistula rate but offers long-term benefit due to better preservation of pancreatic function than SPR. The incidence of exocrine insufficiency is higher in right sided as compared to left-sided pancreatic resections.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gallbladder cancer (GBC) is the sixth most common gastrointestinal malignancy with poor prognosis. Enhanced Recovery Pathway (ERP) is associated with improved outcomes following abdominal surgical procedures. Currently, there is no study evaluating ERP in patients undergoing GBC surgery. The objective was to assess compliance with ERP elements and evaluate its impact on postoperative outcomes. METHODS Prospective study conducted from February 2014-2019, including elective GBC surgery. Team was educated prior to ERP implementation. Compliance with the protocol, functional gastrointestinal (GI) recovery, mobilisation, and postoperative outcomes were recorded. Impact of degree of compliance (more or less than 80%) with ERP and postoperative outcomes was evaluated. RESULTS In 408 patients, compliance with ERP was 84.6% (53.8-100%). Compliance >80% with ERP elements was observed in 245 patients (60%). Patients with >80% compliance had lower rate of minor (18.8% vs. 27%, p = 0.050) and significantly less major (0.8% vs. 6.1%, p = 0.002) and postoperative stay (5.84 ± 4.86 vs. 7.55 ± 6.6 days, p < 0.001) and earlier functional GI recovery. Intraoperative blood loss more than 600 ml, lower compliance (<80%) with ERP and preoperative albumin independently predicted postoperative complications. CONCLUSION This study demonstrates safety and efficacy of enhanced recovery pathway in gallbladder cancer. Higher compliance with the pathway was associated with significantly improved postoperative outcomes following gallbladder cancer surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The anatomical structure around the pancreatic head is very complex and it is important to understand its precise anatomy and corresponding anatomical approach to safely perform minimally invasive pancreatoduodenectomy (MIPD). This consensus statement aimed to develop recommendations for elucidating the anatomy and surgical approaches to MIPD. METHODS Studies identified via a comprehensive literature search were classified using the Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network method. Delphi voting was conducted after experts had drafted recommendations, with a goal of obtaining >75% consensus. Experts discussed the revised recommendations with the validation committee and an international audience of 384 attendees. Finalized recommendations were made after a second round of online Delphi voting. RESULTS Three clinical questions were addressed, providing six recommendations. All recommendations reached at least a consensus of 75%. Preoperatively evaluating the presence of anatomical variations and superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and superior mesenteric vein (SMV) branching patterns was recommended. Moreover, it was recommended to fully understand the anatomical approach to SMA and intraoperatively confirm the SMA course based on each anatomical landmark before initiating dissection. CONCLUSIONS MIPD experts suggest that surgical trainees perform resection based on precise anatomical landmarks for safe and reliable MIPD.

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
AIM This study aimed to assess the impact of treatment sequencing on long-term survival, in distal gastric cancers (GCs) (stage IB/II/III). METHODS This retrospective study included patients with distal GC undergoing D2 resection. Outcomes were compared between group 1 (surgery with adjuvant chemotherapy) and group 2 (perioperative chemotherapy with surgery). 1:1 matching for baseline characteristics (age, cT, and cN stage) was performed for outcome comparison. RESULTS At a median follow-up of 47.5 months in the included 342 patients, the 5-year overall survival (OS) was 61.1% and disease-free survival (DFS) was 50.5%. OS was comparable in the unmatched (group 1, n = 118; group 2, n = 224) (HR 0.905, 95%CI 0.64-1.33, P = 0.615) and matched groups (group 1, n = 97; group 2, n = 97) (HR 0.77, 95% CI 0.48-1.26, P = 0.3). CONCLUSION D2 resection followed by adjuvant chemotherapy provides similar long-term outcomes as compared to perioperative chemotherapy approach for stage IB/II/III distal GCs.

Abstract
Purpose Pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (PERT) involves exogenous enzyme supplementation and is used in the treatment of pancreatic exocrine insufficiency. Clinical efficacy of PERT preparations is a function of physical properties and release kinetics that vary between commercially available products. In this study, we evaluated the physical properties, in vitro dissolution, and release kinetics of commercially available pancreatic enzyme preparations available in the Indian market. Methods Physical properties such as particle size distribution and water content of the capsules were measured by dynamic light scattering and Karl–Fischer titration method, respectively. An analytical procedure based on the European pharmacopoeia (EP) method was used to determine lipase activity, and a modified United States pharmacopoeia (USP)–based method was used for dissolution studies. Enzyme release was ascertained under gastroduodenal conditions in buffered media. Results Considerable variations in physical properties such as particle size and water content were observed between pancreatic enzyme preparations. Some preparations failed to meet the labeled lipase content as per USP standards (>90% label claim) and showed inconsistent release behavior (>5% relative standard deviation). Conclusion Differences exist between pancreatic enzyme preparations in terms of physical properties, dissolution, and release behavior that can affect their clinical efficacy. The present study suggests, therefore, that these preparations should not be used interchangeably.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recurrence of periampullary cancer after pancreatoduodenectomy is common. The aim of this study was to investigate patterns of recurrence, incidence, and factors associated with local and distant recurrences. METHODS This retrospective, single-centre study included consecutive patients with periampullary cancer who underwent resection with curative intent from January 2012 to January 2018. Survival, patterns of recurrence, and factors associated with recurrences were analysed. RESULTS Median overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival among 398 included patients was 58.4 and 49.5 months respectively. Twenty-three patients (5.8 per cent) developed isolated local recurrences (LR), 50 (12.6 per cent) developed LR along with distant metastasis (DM), and 103 (25.9 per cent) developed isolated DM. Median OS was 40.4 months for patients with isolated LR versus 23 months for those with DM (P < 0.001). Tumour subtype (distal common bile duct (CBD): odds ratio (OR) 6.18, 95 per cent c.i. 2.19 to 17.46) and node-positive status (OR 2.36, 1.26 to 4.43) were independently associated with higher rates of LR. The most common site for isolated LR was along the superior mesenteric artery (12 of 23 patients). Tumour subtype (distal CBD: OR 2.86, 1.09 to 7.52), nodal positivity (OR 2.46, 1.53 to 3.94), and presence of perineural invasion (OR 1.80, 1.02 to 3.18) were independently associated with DM. CONCLUSION Isolated LR is associated with better survival than DM and occurs most commonly along the superior mesenteric artery.

Abstract
AIMS The study was carried out to evaluate the early outcomes using Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) for unresectable liver metastases in the management of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) from an area of low endemicity. MATERIAL AND METHODS 60 Patients with unresectable colorectal liver metastases had undergone 88 sessions of RFA from January 2007 till December 2013. The results were retrospectively analysed to evaluate the outcomes in terms of efficacy and survival rates. RESULTS The median follow up of patients in our series was 24.8months. 35/52 (67.3%) patients had complete response at 3 months while 8 patients were lost to follow up. Of the 17 patients who had recurrence, 4 (23.5%) were at the ablated site while 13 patients (76.4%) progressed elsewhere. Abdominal pain was commonest post procedural symptom (20%). There was no procedure related mortality or any major complications. Mean disease free interval and Progression free survival was 6.7 and 13.1 months. Estimated median survival in patients with liver limited disease and those with small lesion (<3cm) was 3.79 years and 3.45 years respectively. Median survival in patients with lesion size 3-5 cms was 1.5 years. Annual survival rates would be 94.5%, 55.2% and 26.2% for 1, 3 and 5 years. CONCLUSION Radiofrequency ablation of unresectable liver metastases is effective in treatment of mCRC. Estimated survival rates and Annual survival rates at our institute from the low endemic region also follow the global trend. Size of the lesion was an important predictor of efficacy of RFA. Presence of extrahepatic disease and lesion size >3 cm was associated with decreased survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND pN3 or ypN3 stage gastric cancers (GCs) are known to have aggressive clinical behaviour. This study aimed to investigate factors affecting survival and pattern of recurrences of N3 stage GCs, treated with curative intent. METHODS A total of 196 GC patients, operated on at the Tata Memorial Centre from 2003 to 2017 and reported as pN3 or ypN3 status on histopathology after D2 gastrectomy were included in this retrospective analysis. RESULTS On multivariate analysis, use of NACT (neoadjuvant chemotherapy) and LN ratio (≤ 0.5/> 0.5) emerged as significant predictors for long-term survival. Patients who received NACT but were still harbouring N3 nodes (ypN3; n = 102) had a worse prognosis than those operated on upfront (pN3; n = 94), with a median survival of 19 months versus 24 months respectively (p = 0.003). The 5-year overall survival of the entire cohort was 16.3% (95% CI 12.8-19.8%), while 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) was 14.6% (95% CI 12.6-20%). Adjuvant chemoradiotherapy, though offered in a small number of patients (n = 38) resulted in improvement in DFS. Median DFS of adjuvant CT versus adjuvant CRT was 13 months versus 23 months (p = 0.020). The commonest site of relapse was the peritoneum (49.18%) and incidence of isolated loco-regional failure was 10.7%. CONCLUSION In GCs with N3 stage determined after radical D2 gastrectomy, LN ratio of > 0.5 and ypN3 status are predictors of poor prognosis. Considering the high incidence of peritoneal and loco-regional relapse in these patients, the role of more radical surgery, adjuvant chemoradiotherapy after upfront resection and intraperitoneal chemotherapy should be evaluated in prospective randomized clinical trials.

Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) demonstrated by machines is based on reinforcement learning and revolves around the usage of algorithms. The purpose of this review was to summarize concepts, the scope, applications, and limitations in major gastrointestinal surgery. This is a narrative review of the available literature on the key capabilities of AI to help anesthesiologists, surgeons, and other physicians to understand and critically evaluate ongoing and new AI applications in perioperative management. AI uses available databases called “big data” to formulate an algorithm. Analysis of other data based on these algorithms can help in early diagnosis, accurate risk assessment, intraoperative management, automated drug delivery, predicting anesthesia and surgical complications and postoperative outcomes and can thus lead to effective perioperative management as well as to reduce the cost of treatment. Perioperative physicians, anesthesiologists, and surgeons are well-positioned to help integrate AI into modern surgical practice. We all need to partner and collaborate with data scientists to collect and analyze data across all phases of perioperative care to provide clinical scenarios and context. Careful implementation and use of AI along with real-time human interpretation will revolutionize perioperative care, and is the way forward in future perioperative management of major surgery.

Abstract
AbstractThis editorial commentary is an expert summary of “Peptide Receptor Radionuclide Therapy (PRRT),” encompassing the essential fundamentals and salient clinical practice points, deliberated and designed in a point-wise manner with theme-based subheadings. Emphasis has been laid on the topics of practical relevance to the referring oncologists with relevant finer points where necessary. A part of the presented overview has been generated from the authors' own practical experience of more than 3500 successful therapies delivered over the last 9 years at a large tertiary care PRRT setting by the joint efforts of Radiation Medicine Centre (RMC), Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC), and Gastrointestinal services of Tata Memorial Hospital (TMH) at the TMH-RMC premises. While the technical indigenization is beyond the scope of this treatise, we must mention here that India had been one of the frontrunners in this treatment modality, and the PRRT services in this country were developed purely as an indigenous effort right from the production of the radionuclide (177-Lutetium) at the reactor and radiolabeling and production of the radiopharmaceutical (177Lu-DOTATATE) by the radiopharmaceutical scientists at the BARC and RMC; such an endeavor allowed this very specialized therapy to be delivered at a very affordable cost in our setting which could be viewed as a major societal contribution of the atomic energy research in this country.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is more challenging in the elderly. METHODS Data of patients undergoing PD above 70 years of age was analysed to study short and long-term outcomes along with the quality of life parameters (QOL). RESULTS Out of 1271 PDs performed, 94 (7%) patients were 70 years or more. American Society of Anaesthesiology (ASA) scores were higher in comparison to patients below 70 years (ASA 1;20% vs. 54% and ASA 2&3;80% vs. 46%, p < 0.001). The postoperative 90-day mortality rate of 5.3% and morbidity (Clavein Grade III and IV of 27%) was higher but non-significant compared to 3.9% (p = 0.50) and 20% (p = 0.11) in patients less than 70 years. The median survival of 40 months was significantly better for periampullary carcinoma when compared to 15 months in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) (p < 0.0001). Patients, less than 70 years had significantly better 3-year survival; 64% vs 43% with periampullary etiology (p < 0.01) and 29% vs 0% with PDAC (p < 0.0001). QLQ-PAN 26 questionnaire responses were suggestive of good long term QOL in these patients. CONCLUSION Although PD is safe and feasible in the elderly population with good long-term QOL, postoperative morbidity and mortality can be slightly higher and long-term survival significantly lower.
