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

open access: yesAnnals 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 ...

Interaction Between Operator and Assistant Certification Is Associated With Local Recurrence After Laparoscopic Rectal Cancer Surgery: An Ancillary Analysis of the EnSSURE Study

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
A significant synergistic interaction between operator and assistant certification was associated with a lower risk of local recurrence after laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery. Patients treated by both ESSQS‐qualified operators and assistants had the lowest risk of local recurrence, whereas a single qualification alone was not associated with a ...

Mac‐2 Binding Protein Glycosylation Isomer (M2BPGi)–Based Risk Stratification Refined by Tumor Metabolic Activity in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
M2BPGi reflects background liver fibrosis and hepatic functional impairment. PET SUVmax reflects tumor metabolic aggressiveness. Their combination identifies a dual‐high subgroup with the poorest recurrence‐free and overall survival. ABSTRACT Aim To evaluate the prognostic significance of preoperative Mac‐2 binding protein glycosylation isomer (M2BPGi)
