The subvesical duct of Luschka: A source of bile leakage following gallbladder removal
We describe a case of bile leakage following laparoscopic cholecystectomy further complicated by iatrogenic central bile duct obstruction. The site of leakage was identified not from the site of the inadvertent proper hepatic duct ligation but from a ...

Background The genesis of the “complex type” classification of pancreaticobiliary maljunction (PBM) is unclear, and the pancreaticobiliary anatomy is also varied according to each case. We encountered a patient with PBM and incomplete pancreatic divisum (

Effect of biliopancreatic tree anatomy on development of acute gallstone pancreatitis
Background Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a complex disorder with gallstones being the most common underlying cause. Anatomical variations of gallbladder, cystic duct (CD), common bile duct and main pancreatic duct and their courses and interactions with ...

This study explores salivary RNA for breast cancer (BC) diagnosis, prognosis, and follow‐up. High‐throughput RNA sequencing identified distinct salivary RNA signatures, including novel transcripts, that differentiate BC from healthy controls, characterize histological and molecular subtypes, and indicate lymph node involvement.

Development of therapies targeting cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) necessitates preclinical model systems that faithfully represent CAF–tumor biology. We established an in vitro coculture system of patient‐derived pancreatic CAFs and tumor cell lines and demonstrated its recapitulation of primary CAF–tumor biology with single‐cell transcriptomics ...

Strength through diversity: how cancers thrive when clones cooperate
Intratumor heterogeneity can offer direct benefits to the tumor through cooperation between different clones. In this review, Kuiken et al. discuss existing evidence for clonal cooperativity to identify overarching principles, and highlight how novel technological developments could address remaining open questions.
