Management Strategies for Disappearing Colorectal Liver Metastases After Systemic Chemotherapy: Long‐Term Outcomes and Preoperative Prediction of ‘True Complete Response’

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Determining whether to resect disappearing liver metastases (DLMs) after chemotherapy for colorectal liver metastases (CRLMs) remains challenging. Methods Patients who underwent hepatectomy after systemic chemotherapy for initially unresectable CRLMs were reviewed. True complete response (CR) was defined as either resected DLMs with

“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.

Impact of Recanalization on Liver Hypertrophy after Portal Vein Embolization and the Role of Re‐Embolization

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This retrospective study of 249 patients undergoing hepatectomy after right portal vein embolization (PVE) demonstrated that major recanalization–defined as recanalization more than one segment within the embolized liver–was associated with impaired regeneration of the future liver remnant (FLR).

Plasma Immunoglobulin A and intestinal ultrasound: Novel indicators for disease activity monitoring in inflammatory bowel disease—Insights from a Taiwan cohort

Advances in Digestive Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Intestinal ultrasound (IUS) is a non‐invasive imaging method used to evaluate bowel wall inflammation and monitor disease activity in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients. Both the European Crohn's and Colitis Organization and the American Gastroenterological Association endorse IUS for monitoring disease activity and identifying ...

Patient‐Mounted Neuro Optical Coherence Tomography for Targeted Minimally Invasive Micro‐Resolution Volumetric Imaging in Brain In Vivo

Advanced Intelligent Systems, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2025.
Herein, a patient‐mounted neuro optical coherence tomography system that integrates a 5 degrees‐of‐freedom skull‐mounted robot (Skullbot) with a 0.6 mm neuroendoscope for targeted, minimally invasive deep brain imaging, is developed. The system offers high‐resolution imaging with precise deployment, demonstrated through successful tumor imaging in a ...

Semi‐autonomous Navigation of Magnetic Microcarriers for Knee Cartilage Regeneration

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Autonomous navigation of magnetic microcarriers in complex 3D environments is investigated through a semi‐autonomous strategy integrating magnetic actuation with monocular visual feedback. Real‐time global tracking is achieved via radio‐frequency‐based localization and depth estimation, while model‐based computation determines optimal steering forces ...
