Comparative Outcomes of Endoscopic, Minimally Invasive Surgical, and Open Necrosectomy in Necrotizing Pancreatitis: Evidence From a Network Meta‐Analysis

World Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
The optimal interventional approach for necrotizing pancreatitis remains debated. We performed a systematic review with network meta‐analysis and proportional meta‐analysis to compare endoscopic trans‐gastric necrosectomy (EN), minimally invasive surgical necrosectomy (MIN), and open necrosectomy (ON).

Imaging of Abdominal Complications in Children With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia

Journal of Medical Imaging and Radiation Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) is the most common paediatric malignancy and remains one of the most common causes of cancer‐related death in children and adolescents. Five‐year overall survival rates now exceed 90% with current multidrug chemotherapeutic regimens. This improvement, coupled with the toxicity of chemotherapy, has led to the

When Enzymes Mislead: Assessing the Value of MRCP in Suspected Choledocholithiasis

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The diagnosis of choledocholithiasis (CDL) requires balancing timely intervention against the risks of unnecessary invasive procedures. Although liver function tests (LFTs) are widely used for risk stratification, their static values and short‐term trends remain poorly defined in predicting persistent common bile duct stones.
