This study investigated the utility of the Japanese NCD risk calculator for preoperative assessment in elderly patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD), using a validation study design. In the training cohort, two preoperative factors—the predicted incidence of postoperative ADL decline ≥ 44.8% and Clavien–Dindo grade IV or higher complications

Bowel Incision Closure with a Semi-Automated Robot-Assisted Laser Tissue Soldering System [PDF]
Traditional methods for closing gastrointestinal (GI) surgery incisions, like suturing and stapling, present significant challenges, including potentially life-threatening leaks. These techniques, especially in robot-assisted minimally invasive surgery (RAMIS), require advanced manual skills.

A novel, simple coccygeal intervertebral disc degeneration model, using a suturing method for tail‐looping, without the need for external fixation and complex surgery. The model has high reproducibility and stability and overcomes the disadvantages of the existing animal models of disc degeneration.
