Outcomes Following Pancreatoduodenectomy With Arterial Resection: A NSQIP Analysis Comparing Trends in Patient Selection and Outcomes to Venous or no Vascular Resection Over 5 Years

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Evaluation of arterial resection (AR) during pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) remains limited. This study compares PD with AR to PD with venous resection (VR) and no vascular resection (NVR). Patient demographics, outcomes, and changes over 5 years are evaluated.

Perioperative Outcomes of Patients With Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms in the Context of Different Body Composition Phenotypes

open access: yesWorld Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (pNEN) are rare and heterogeneous tumors with increasing incidence. While surgical resection remains the only curative treatment, perioperative outcomes are influenced by patient‐related risk factors. Recent research highlights body composition (BC) as a prognostic marker in oncological and transplantation surgery ...

Vertical Rectus Abdominis Myocutaneous Flap Reduces Pelvic Exenteration Morbidity: A Retrospective Single‐Centre Cohort Study

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pelvic exenteration (PE) has emerged as a viable resection strategy for locally advanced and recurrent pelvic cancers; however, it carries the burden of significant morbidity. The vertical rectus abdominis myocutaneous (VRAM) flap is a reconstructive method designed to minimise postoperative wound complications, and this study ...
