Prognostic Significance of Portal Vein Tumor Thrombus in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma Treated With Chemoradiotherapy

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
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 ...

Preoperative Gemcitabine/Nab‐Paclitaxel With Concurrent Radiation Therapy for Borderline Resectable Pancreatic Cancer: A Comparative Analysis With Preoperative Chemoradiation Therapy Using Gemcitabine Alone

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Although NCCN guidelines recommend preoperative therapy for borderline resectable pancreatic cancer (BR‐PC), it is still unclear which regimen is better. The study objective was to elucidate the prognostic significance of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (NACRT) with gemcitabine/nab‐paclitaxel (GnP‐RT) compared to gemcitabine alone ...

Comparative outcomes of extended distal pancreatectomy and distal pancreatectomy

Asian Journal of Surgery, 2023
Patients with locally advanced pancreatic body/tail tumors, gastric cancer, or colon cancer often have contiguous organ involvement requiring extensive pancreatic resection. This study was performed to compare surgical complications and the incidence of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) between distal pancreatectomy (DP ...

Effect of Broad‐Spectrum Antibiotic Prophylaxis on Post‐Pancreatoduodenectomy Infectious Complications: Nationwide Inpatient Database Study in Japan

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Using a nationwide Japanese inpatient database, we evaluated whether broad‐spectrum antibiotic prophylaxis improves postoperative outcomes after pancreatoduodenectomy compared with narrow‐spectrum antibiotics. In propensity score–weighted analyses of 45 099 patients, broad‐spectrum prophylaxis was associated with significantly lower rates of intra ...

Analysis of hospital costs for robotic and open pancreatectomy incurred during the implementation of a robotic pancreatectomy program at a cancer center

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery
Background Costs associated with robotic pancreatectomy compared to those of open pancreatectomy are assumed to be high but are not well known, particularly during the initial implementation of the robot.

Neoadjuvant treatment in pancreatic cance. Evidence-based medicine? A systematic review and meta-analysis [PDF]

, 2017
Neoadjuvant treatment in non-metastatic pancreatic cancer (PaC) has the theoretical advantages of downstaging the tumor, sterilizing any present systemic undetectable disease, selecting patients for surgery and administering therapy to each patient.

Surgical Outcomes of Sequential Robot‐Assisted Hepatobiliary–Pancreatic Surgery in a Single Operating Room: A Single‐Center Retrospective Analysis of a High‐Volume Center in Japan (TAKUMI‐6)

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study investigated the surgical outcomes of sequential robot‐assisted hepatobiliary–pancreatic (HBP) in a single operating room. The outcomes and operating room timelines were comparable between the first and second cases. The median turnover time was 49 min, and the day‐shift completion success rate was 34.4%.
