Characteristics of ascitic fluid and diagnosis of bacterial peritonitis in malignant ascites: An observational study

Journal of Hospital Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bacterial peritonitis in patients with malignant ascites (BP‐MA) is an understudied, high‐mortality condition. While ascitic polymorphonuclear (PMN) cell count ≥ 250 cells/mm3 defines the diagnosis of spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) in patients with cirrhosis, an ascitic fluid parameter for the diagnosis of BP‐MA has not ...

Retrohepatic Vena Cava Encirclement, as Surrogate of Extensive Liver Manipulation During Caval Sparing Hepatectomy, Is a Risk Factor for Tumor Recurrence After Liver Transplantation for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Journal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction In liver transplantation (LT) with a caval sparing (CS) approach, the presence of complete encirclement of inferior vena cava (IVC‐E) by hypertrophic segment 1 increases the technical complexity of hepatectomy. Thus, in LT for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), It may be suspected that the resulting greater liver manipulation and ...

Morbidity and Mortality of Cytoreductive Surgery and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy in Patients Aged 70 Years and Older: A Two‐Center 10‐Year Experience

Journal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is established for peritoneal surface malignancies, but its use in older patients is debated. We assessed CRS‐HIPEC morbidity and mortality in patients aged ≥ 70 years using a cohort of younger patients as a comparator.
