Patterns of failure after resection of extrahepatic bile duct cancer: implications for adjuvant radiotherapy indication and treatment volumes

open access: yesRadiation Oncology, 2018
Background The role of adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) and setting proper RT target volumes have not been clearly demonstrated for extrahepatic bile duct (EHBD) cancer, due to the rarity of the disease and the lack of randomized trials.

Exposures to pesticides and risk of cancer: Evaluation of recent epidemiological evidence in humans and paths forward

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, Volume 152, Issue 5, Page 879-912, 1 March 2023., 2023
Abstract Knowledge of the role in cancer etiology of environmental exposures as pesticides is a prerequisite for primary prevention. We review 63 epidemiological studies on exposure to pesticides and cancer risk in humans published from 2017 to 2021, with emphasis on new findings, methodological approaches, and gaps in the existing literature.

Episodic Biliary Obstruction: Intrahepatic Biliary Cystadenoma

open access: yesArchives of Clinical and Experimental Surgery, 2014
Biliary cystadenomas are rare, benign but potentially malignant, multilocular, cystic neoplasms of a biliary origin. They often present with non-specific symptoms.

Current considerations on intraductal papillary neoplasms of the bile duct and pancreatic duct

open access: yesWorld Journal of Gastroenterology
Pancreatobiliary intraductal papillary neoplasms (IPNs) represent precursors of pancreatic cancer or bile duct cholangiocarcinoma that can be detected and treated. Despite advances in diagnostic methods, identifying these premalignant lesions is still challenging for treatment providers.

Cystic and Papillary Neoplasm at the Hepatic Hilum Possibly Originating in the Peribiliary Glands

open access: yesCase Reports in Pathology, 2016
Cystic neoplasms of the liver are divided into two types: mucinous cystic neoplasm and cystic intraductal papillary neoplasm of the bile duct. We herein report two cases of cystic and papillary neoplasm of the liver which differed from the abovementioned

On turbulent friction in straight ducts with complex cross section: the wall law and the hydraulic diameter [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
We develop predictive formulas for friction resistance in ducts with complex cross-sectional shape based on the use of the log law and neglect of wall shear stress nonuniformities. The traditional hydraulic diameter naturally emerges from the analysis as the controlling length scale for common duct shapes as triangles and regular polygons. The analysis

Association between surgical difficulty and tumor location based on subsegments of the Glisson branches in laparoscopic liver resection

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Our study validates the need for a more detailed and accurate tumor location scoring system within the IWATE criteria. The proposed classification based on subsegmental Glisson branches provides a sophisticated tool for assessing LLR difficulty. By providing a more detailed assessment, this new system has the potential to enhance surgical planning ...

Updated risk prediction model for pancreaticoduodenectomy using data from the National Clinical Database in Japan

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
The calibration plots of the updated risk models for the endpoints were analyzed in each cohort. The predicted probability of each endpoint matched the observed probability in the development and validation cohorts. Abstract Aim Risk prediction models for mortality, severe postoperative complications, and postoperative pancreatic fistula in patients ...

Prognostic value of surgical treatment in elderly patients with ulcerative colitis‐associated colorectal cancer: A subanalysis of a nationwide Japanese multicenter study

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Our study examined the characteristics of elderly patients diagnosed with ulcerative colitis‐associated colorectal cancer. We showed that factors associated with aggressive tumor characteristics played a significant role in recurrence risk in the nonelderly patients, but not in the elderly patients.
