Indocyanine green fluorescence improves safety in laparoscopic cholecystectomy using the Fundus First technique: a retrospective study

Frontiers in Surgery
IntroductionAs one of the most commonly performed surgeries in the world, safety during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is of utmost importance. Indocyanine green (ICG) has been used for different medical purposes including assessment of liver function

Current Cell/Organoid and Animal Models for Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis

Portal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic cholestatic liver disease with limited therapeutic options and a marked risk of progression to biliary fibrosis, cirrhosis, and malignancy. Progress in PSC research has been hindered by the lack of models that faithfully recapitulate the complex biliary microenvironment and disease heterogeneity ...

Inter‐Crystal Spacing of Implantable Polymeric Surfaces as a Key Suppressor of Microbial Adhesion.

Small, EarlyView.
Biofilm formation on implantable devices is addressed by controlling inter‐crystal spacing in shape memory polymers. Repeated shape recovery aligns and enlarges crystalline phases and reduces amorphous regions, enhancing bacterial repellency. Three biofilm‐forming bacteria show reduced adhesion, and a one‐year dog bile‐duct model maintains function ...

Imaging of Abdominal Complications in Children With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia

Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) is the most common paediatric malignancy and remains one of the most common causes of cancer‐related death in children and adolescents. Five‐year overall survival rates now exceed 90% with current multidrug chemotherapeutic regimens. This improvement, coupled with the toxicity of chemotherapy, has led to the

Indocyanin greens cholangiography for intra-operative bile duct visualization during pediatric laparoscopic hepato-biliary surgery

Journal of Pediatric Surgery Case Reports, 2021
Introduction: Intraoperative cholangiography involving the excretion of fluorescent indocyanine green (NIR/ICG) into the bile is used to determine biliary anatomy in adult laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) and other hepatobiliary surgery.

Open Questions in Surgery for Hepatoblastoma: A Joined SIOPEL‐IPSO Survey

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Surgery is pivotal in the management of hepatoblastoma (HB) although approaches and techniques may vary. The Liver Group of the International Society of Pediatric Oncology (SIOPEL) and the International Pediatric Surgical Oncology (IPSO) group collaborated to develop an online survey to investigate specific technical aspects and ...

Anti‐Integrin αvβ6 Autoantibodies as Diagnostic and Monitoring Biomarkers for Pediatric‐Onset Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
Levels of anti‐integrin αvβ6 antibodies were significantly higher in pediatric‐onset primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) than in autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) and may reflect disease activity. These antibodies may serve as a novel biomarker for distinguishing PSC from AIH and for monitoring disease progression.

The Importance of the Gel Immersion Method to Successfully Identify the Jejunojejunal Anastomosis Site After Roux‐Y Reconstruction With Double‐Balloon Enteroscopy‐assisted Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography: A Case Report

DEN Open, Volume 7, Issue 1, April 2027.
ABSTRACT The gel immersion method improves endoscopic visualization by displacing debris and blood with a viscous gel. Although it is commonly used in procedures such as endoscopic mucosal resection and endoscopic submucosal dissection, its use in double‐balloon enteroscopy‐assisted endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (DBE‐ERCP) has rarely ...
