Preoperative FIB‐4 Index as a Potential Factor Associated With Severe Postoperative Complications and Endogenous Organ Failure After Hepatectomy for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that a preoperative FIB‐4 index ≥ 5.0 independently predicts severe complications and endogenous organ failure (EOF) following hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma. By capturing structural liver fragility and systemic vulnerability, the FIB‐4 index enhances surgical risk stratification beyond traditional functional markers ...

Prognostic Impact of Circumferential Resection Margin in Minimally Invasive Surgery for Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer: A Multicenter Prospective Study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This multicenter prospective study provides the first Japanese evidence that circumferential resection margin positivity after minimally invasive surgery is associated with poorer long‐term outcomes in locally advanced rectal cancer. As the cohort predominantly included patients treated with upfront surgery, these findings provide important evidence to

Biological Resectability in Colorectal Liver Metastases: A Nomogram‐Based Continuous Risk Model to Define Borderline Disease

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
KRAS mutation demonstrated a prognostic impact according to primary tumor sidedness, independent of tumor morphology, in patients undergoing hepatectomy for colorectal liver metastases. A nomogram integrating biological and clinicopathological factors was developed to provide continuous biological risk assessment.

Association Between Preoperative Steroid Use and Short‐Term Outcomes Following Pancreaticoduodenectomy: A Nationwide Analysis Using the National Clinical Database

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) carries a high risk of postoperative complications. Although steroids are widely prescribed for various chronic diseases, the specific impact after PD remains unclear. This study evaluated the association between preoperative chronic steroid use and short‐term outcomes following PD.
