T Cell Microenvironmental Impacts and Therapeutic Opportunities: Application to Human Testicular Germ Cell Tumors

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT) are the leading malignancy in adolescent and young adult males, yet the immunological and cellular mechanisms governing their tumor microenvironment (TME) remain poorly understood. Here, we present a comprehensive review of TGCT pathobiology with a focus on the immune landscape, particularly the role of tumor‐

Cost‐Effectiveness of Laparoscopic Common Bile Duct Exploration Versus Endoscopic Retrograde Cholangiopancreatography in Emergency Stone Management

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Among 337 patients undergoing emergency management of common bile duct stones, laparoscopic common bile duct exploration was associated with lower healthcare costs, fewer procedures and shorter hospital stays than ERCP‐based management, supporting single‐stage surgical management as a safe and cost‐effective treatment strategy.
