Significance of Intraoperative Lavage Cytology in Perihilar Cholangiocarcinoma

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (PHC) has a poor prognosis, with frequent early metastatic recurrence after curative resection. Peritoneal metastasis (PM) is particularly difficult to diagnose and predict. While intraoperative lavage cytology (CY) is a standard method to detect PM, its utility remains unclear in PHC.

Association Between Distance to the Transplant Center and Survival Following Living Donor Liver Transplantation

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study investigated the impacts of distance to transplant center on posttransplant survival following LDLT. Patients living further away from the transplant center had worse graft and patient survival rates than those of patients living closer, probably due to less frequency of follow‐up visits, and living > 40 miles from our treatment center was ...
