FIB‐3 index as a novel age‐independent predictor of liver fibrosis and prognosis in hepatocellular carcinoma patients undergoing hepatectomy

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Fibrosis‐3 index (FIB‐3) can stratify the risk of the survival and the recurrence‐free survival. The FIB‐3 index is a reliable, age‐independent tool for assessing liver fibrosis and prognosis in HCC patients post‐hepatectomy. Its use may improve clinical outcomes and support personalized treatment strategies. Abstract Background Liver fibrosis is a key

Is cryoballoon ablation preferable to radiofrequency ablation for treatment of atrial fibrillation by pulmonary vein isolation? A meta-analysis.

PLoS ONE, 2014
ObjectiveCurrently radiofrequency and cryoballoon ablations are the two standard ablation systems used for catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation; however, there is no universal consensus on which ablation is the optimal choice.

Exploring Patterns of Dynamic Size Changes of Lesions after Hepatic Microwave Ablation in an In Vivo Porcine Model [PDF]

, 2020
Microwave ablation (MWA) is a type of minimally invasive cancer therapy that uses heat to induce necrosis in solid tumours. Inter- and post-ablational size changes can influence the accuracy of control imaging, posing a risk of incomplete ablation.

Surgical and Oncological Outcomes of Conversion Surgery After Hepatic Arterial Infusion Chemotherapy for Initially Unresectable Locally Advanced Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Conversion surgery for HCC. ABSTRACT Background Since 2013, we have performed conversion surgery after hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) for initially unresectable locally advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (LA‐HCC). Methods Between 2013 and 2021, we assessed the surgical and oncological outcomes and pathological findings of patients with LA‐

Preoperative Versus Postoperative Chemotherapy With CAPOX Plus Bevacizumab for Resectable Colorectal Liver Metastases: A Randomized Phase II Trial (HiSCO‐01)

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Our aim was to compare the outcomes of preoperative chemotherapy with postoperative chemotherapy in patients with resectable colorectal liver metastases treated with CAPOX‐Bev. We demonstrated that both preoperative and postoperative CAPOX‐Bev were safely administered, and preoperative chemotherapy showed a numerically higher treatment compliance rate ...
