Risk Factors for Small‐for‐Size Syndrome Grade B/C After Simultaneous Splenectomy in Adult Living‐Donor Liver Transplantation

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
In a single‐center cohort of 577 adult LDLT recipients who underwent simultaneous splenectomy, clinically significant SFSS grade B/C (ILTS‐iLDLT‐LTSI 2023) occurred in 18.2% and was associated with inferior graft survival. Multivariate analysis identified MELD ≥ 30, NLR ≥ 4.5, and donor age ≥ 50 years as independent risk factors, which risk rising ...

A Machine Learning Model for Predicting Posthepatectomy Liver Failure After Hepatectomy With Extrahepatic Bile Duct Resection for Perihilar Cholangiocarcinoma: With and Without Indocyanine Green

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Using machine learning‐based decision tree models, patients with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma undergoing major hepatectomy with extrahepatic bile duct resection were stratified according to the risk of posthepatectomy liver failure. Separate models were developed with and without indocyanine green data, enabling clinically interpretable preoperative ...
