Reappraisal of Real‐World Management of Acute Cholecystitis in Elderly Patients Based on the Adherence to Tokyo Guidelines 2018 (TG18): A Multicenter Study on Anzu HPB Surgical Meeting

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This multicenter retrospective study analyzes real‐world management of acute cholecystitis in patients aged ≥ 70 years across five institutions, focusing on adherence and intentional deviation from TG18 recommendations. By classifying treatment strategies as TG18‐accordant, more aggressive, or more conservative, we reappraise current practice patterns.

“Intrapericardial Approach” for Venous Outflow Reconstruction in Living‐Donor Liver Transplantation for Budd‐Chiari Syndrome: Surgical Techniques and LongTerm Outcomes

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Unlike deceased‐donor liver transplantation, living‐donor liver transplantation (LDLT) for Budd‐Chiari Syndrome (BCS) presents distinctive challenges in hepatic venous (HV)‐outflow reconstruction because diseased HV–inferior vena cava (IVC) cannot be entirely replaced with healthy donor vessels.

Preoperative Total Iron‐Binding Capacity Is a Novel Surrogate Marker of Short‐ and Long‐Term Outcomes After Liver Resection for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
HCC patients with low preoperative TIBC levels experienced significantly more frequent post‐hepatectomy complications. Furthermore, these patients were significantly correlated with worse survival. Preoperative serum TIBC levels may be a novel surrogate marker of postoperative complications and long‐term survival after hepatectomy.

Rethinking Perioperative Corticosteroids in Esophageal Cancer Surgery: Evidence From an Integrative Meta‐Analysis

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Esophagectomy remains a highly invasive procedure associated with substantial postoperative morbidity. Pulmonary complications, anastomotic leakage, and in‐hospital mortality are of particular concern. Perioperative corticosteroids are often administered to attenuate excessive inflammatory responses; however, the clinical impact in ...

Alcohol Consumption Is a Risk Factor of Surgical Site Infection After Minimally Invasive Surgery: A Secondary Observational Analysis of a Clinical Trial

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Alcohol consumption was independently associated with Surgical Site Infection in the gastroenterological Minimally Invasive Surgery. Whether preoperative abstinence from alcohol prevents the occurrence of SSI warrants further investigation. ABSTRACT Background Surgical site infection (SSI) is one of the postoperative complications. Risk factors for SSI

Surgical Resection for Colorectal Liver Metastasis in Elderly Patients Aged ≥ 80: A Retrospective Nationwide Cohort Survey in Japan With Propensity Score Matching

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Surgical resection for CRLM seems to be as effective in elderly patients aged ≥ 80 as in nonelderly patients. However, elderly patients aged ≥ 80 had significantly worse cancer‐specific survival (CSS) and overall survival (OS). The significantly worse CSS and OS may have resulted from a lower rate of treatment for recurrence in elderly patients aged ...

Age and Regional Trends in Groin Hernia Surgery in Japan: An Analysis of Laparoscopic Repair, Outpatient Surgery, and Manual Reduction Using National Database Open Data

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Using National Database open data from 2014 to 2023, this nationwide study visualizes age‐, sex‐, and region‐specific trends in groin hernia surgery in Japan. Laparoscopic surgery, outpatient surgery, and manual reduction were analyzed to estimate lifetime surgical burden and patterns of emergency‐related healthcare utilization at the population level.

Diagnostic Accuracy of Size‐Based Preoperative CT Assessment for Predicting Lymph Node Metastasis in Colon Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Preoperative CT based on lymph node size shows moderate accuracy for detecting nodal metastasis in colon cancer. In this meta‐analysis of 29 studies (5,634 patients), pooled sensitivity and specificity were 0.69 and 0.66. Size‐based CT alone has limited value for clinical decision‐making.

Extent of Lymph Node Dissection for cStage I Siewert Type I/II Cancers Based on Lymph Node Metastasis Risk Stratification

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim The optimal surgical strategy and extent of lymph node (LN) dissection for clinical Stage I (cStage I) adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (AEG) remain controversial. This study aimed to evaluate surgical outcomes and clarify the prevalence and distribution of LN metastasis according to tumor characteristics in cStage I Siewert ...

Short‐Term Outcomes and Cost Drivers of Emergency Surgery for Acute Abdominal Disease in Super‐Elderly Patients: A Study in the Japanese Tertiary Care Hospital

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This retrospective study analyzed patients aged ≥ 85 years undergoing emergency abdominal surgery, focusing on short‐term outcomes and inpatient cost structure under the Japanese DPC system. Although major complications occurred in 19.4% of patients, more than 70% were discharged home.
