ABSTRACT Aim To examine the significance of portal vein tumor thrombus (PVTT) as a prognostic factor for patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) treated with chemoradiotherapy (CRT) followed by surgery. Methods The study retrospectively examined 313 patients with borderline resectable (BR) or locally advanced (LA) PDAC who underwent CRT ...

ABSTRACT Background Radical gastrectomy, followed by adjuvant chemotherapy has been a common practice in Japan for peritoneal lavage cytology‐positive (CY1) but peritoneal dissemination‐negative (P0) stage IV gastric cancer. This study aimed to clarify the differences in treatment outcomes between upfront surgery and preoperative chemotherapy, followed

This study compared short‐term outcomes of robot‐assisted versus laparoscopic colectomy for colon cancer using 1:1 propensity score matching. Among 218 matched pairs, robot‐assisted colectomy was associated with reduced blood loss, fewer conversions to open surgery, lower overall complication rates, and shorter hospital stays, despite longer operative ...

This review summarizes key advances from 2024 to 2025 that are reshaping esophageal cancer surgery toward a strategy‐oriented, personalized paradigm through the integration of immunotherapy, population aging, and intelligent technologies. Adjuvant nivolumab after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy remains the only perioperative approach with durable benefit,

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

ABSTRACT Aim A novel systemic inflammatory response marker, the neutrophil × monocyte value (NM value), has been identified as a negative predictive factor for responses to chemoradiotherapy in rectal cancer. However, the clinical implications of the NM value remain unknown.

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 ...

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).

This study utilized high‐resolution CT colonography‐angiography to systematically classify vascular branching patterns in 591 patients. We defined four reproducible anatomical patterns each for right hemicolectomy and transverse colectomy, demonstrating that an independent‐origin middle colic artery consistently predicts shorter dissection distances ...
