The cornerstone of treatment for symptomatic gallbladder stones is laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Pain is the commonest cause of extended hospital stay. Disturbance of liver—diaphragm surface tension is the main cause of pain. Retained CO2 is a major concern post laparoscopic cholecystectomy.

High tumor budding is a new candidate for an additional determinant of the T category in staging ICC. An LCSGJ staging system containing an additional evaluation of tumor budding may lead to improved staging accuracy. Abstract Purpose This retrospective study evaluated our hypothesis that high tumor budding (≥10 buds) may help determine the appropriate

A Bile Duct‐on‐a‐Chip With Organ‐Level Functions
Chronic cholestatic liver diseases such as primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) and primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) are frequently associated with damage to the barrier function of the biliary epithelium, but barrier function is difficult to study in ...

Intraoperative time out to promote the implementation of the critical view of safety in laparoscopic cholecystectomy: a video-based assessment of 343 procedures [PDF]
Background: The critical view of safety (CVS) is poorly adopted in surgical practices although it is ubiquitously recommended to prevent major bile duct injuries during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). This study aims to determine whether performing a short intraoperative time out can improve CVS implementation. Methods: Surgeons performing LCs at an

Dual hypothermic oxygenated machine perfusion (DHOPE) of the liver has been advocated as a method to reduce ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI). This study aimed to determine whether DHOPE reduces IRI of the bile ducts in donation after circulatory death ...

Background Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is an abnormal accumulation of Langerhans cells in various organs that sometimes induces organ dysfunction. LCH can affect the liver, resulting in sclerosing cholangitis and biliary cirrhosis. However, liver
