Real‐World Data of Retroperitoneal Tumor Surgeries Performed by Gastroenterological Surgeons in Japan: Analysis Based on the National Clinical Database

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Retroperitoneal tumors (RPTs) are rare and anatomically complex neoplasms, for which surgery remains the mainstay of treatment. However, real‐world data on their surgical management in Japan have been limited. Objective To describe the clinical characteristics and short‐term outcomes of patients undergoing resection for RPTs in ...

Tetrahydrobiopterin analogues with NO-dependent pulmonary vasodilator properties [PDF]

, 2011
Reduced NO levels due to the deficiency of tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) contribute to impaired vasodilation in pulmonary hypertension Due to the chemically unstable nature of BH4 it was hypothesised that oxidatively stable analogues of BR, would be able to ...

“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 Computed Tomography Colonography‐Angiography for Vascular Mapping to Guide and Standardize D3 Lymphadenectomy in Right‐Sided and Transverse Colon Cancer

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
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 ...
