Percutaneous Y-shape reconstructive biliary stenting in Klatskin cholangiocarcinoma through a single left-sided entry

Annals of Saudi Medicine, 2022
Percutaneous Y-shape reconstructive biliary stenting in the Klatskin tumor is typically performed through bilateral biliary access. Single access from a right-side biliary entry is the more commonly used side for biliary access in general.

Genome sequencing identifies complex structural MLH1 variant in unsolved Lynch syndrome

Molecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 11, Issue 6, June 2023., 2023
A family with Lynch syndrome is presented by this article. Standard diagnostic tests, such as panel or exome sequencing, were unable to detect the underlying copy‐number neutral structural genetic variant in MLH1. This case aims to illustrate the advantages of clinical genome sequencing in routine diagnostics in detecting structural variants.

Pausing transplants in the face of a global pandemic: Patient survival implications

Production and Operations Management, Volume 32, Issue 5, Page 1380-1396, May 2023., 2023
Abstract The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) pandemic has disrupted normal operating procedures at transplant centers. With the possibility that COVID‐19 infection carries an overall 4% mortality rate and potentially a 24% mortality rate among the immunocompromised transplant recipients, many transplant centers considered the possibility of slowing

HBcAb positivity increases the risk of postoperative complications after extended hemihepatectomy for hilar cholangiocarcinoma

Cancer Medicine, Volume 12, Issue 8, Page 9627-9636, April 2023., 2023
Abstract Background Hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb) positivity is considered a prior hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. However, little is known about the effect of HBcAb positivity on surgical safety for hilar cholangiocarcinoma (hCCA). The present study aims to investigate the role of HBcAb positivity on postoperative complications of hCCA ...
