Outcomes of Pancreas‐Sparing Total Duodenectomy for Severe Duodenal Polyposis in Patients With Familial Adenomatous Polyposis

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Spigelman stage IV duodenal polyposis (SP‐stage IV DP) is associated with high duodenal cancer risk in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). This study evaluated the surgical and oncological outcomes of pancreas‐sparing total duodenectomy (PSTD) as a surgical prophylaxis for severe duodenal polyposis in FAP.

Primary sclerosing cholangitis

Best Practice & Research Clinical Gastroenterology, 2010
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic bile duct disease leading to fibrotic biliary strictures and liver cirrhosis. The patient population is heterogeneous with regard to disease progression and the presence of co-morbidities, complicating the practical handling of patients as well as studies of pathogenetic mechanisms. The aetiology of PSC

Fine-mapping and molecular characterisation of primary sclerosing cholangitis genetic risk loci

Nature Communications
Genome-wide association studies of primary sclerosing cholangitis have identified 23 susceptibility loci. The majority of these loci reside in non-coding regions of the genome and are thought to exert their effect by perturbing the regulation of nearby ...
