Institutional learning curve and factors of prolonged operation time of robotic distal pancreatectomy: An analysis of an initial 117 cases

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study verified the effective implementation of robotic distal pancreatectomy as the standard approach in our strategic robotic surgical oncology program. Although an institutional learning curve was observed, the robotic surgery program successfully expanded the number of primary operating surgeons while maintaining stable short‐term outcomes ...

Prognostic impact of postoperative fixed‐point inflammation in patients with gastric cancer after curative gastrectomy: A validation cohort study

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
The cutoff value of CRP by sex for poor OS remains unclear. This study aimed to determine the cutoff values of CRP on postoperative day 3 to predict poor OS in men and women with gastric cancer after radical gastrectomy. The high‐CRP group has poorer overall survival than the low‐CRP group for gastric cancer after gastrectomy.

A Vision-Language Model for Focal Liver Lesion Classification [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
Accurate classification of focal liver lesions is crucial for diagnosis and treatment in hepatology. However, traditional supervised deep learning models depend on large-scale annotated datasets, which are often limited in medical imaging. Recently, Vision-Language models (VLMs) such as Contrastive Language-Image Pre-training model (CLIP) has been ...

Regional and patient characteristic disparities in the outcomes of minimally invasive surgery for colorectal cancer in Japan

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study aimed to clarify whether differences in minimally invasive surgery outcomes are associated with regional and patient characteristics. This study found regional and patient characteristic disparities in minimally invasive surgical outcomes; national policies should be implemented to address these inequities.

A history of gastrectomy is a risk factor for choledocholithiasis in patients undergoing cholecystectomy: A single center retrospective study

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This retrospective study suggests that gastrectomy is a risk factor for choledocholithiasis. Especially in terms of the differences in reconstruction methods, the median time from gastrectomy to development of choledocholithiasis was 5.5 years for Roux‐en‐Y, which was significantly faster than 20 years for Billroth I and 35 years for Billroth II ...
