Diagnostic Accuracy of Shear Wave Elastography for the Assessment of Congestive Liver Disease in Patients With Structural Heart Disease

Journal of Clinical Ultrasound, EarlyView.
Shear wave elastography demonstrated moderate diagnostic accuracy for detecting congestive liver disease in patients with structural heart disease. Increased liver stiffness was associated with echocardiographic markers of venous congestion, supporting the concept that elastography may serve as a noninvasive marker of cardiohepatic interaction ...

Histological Analysis of Cryopreserved Venous Allografts Used for Liver Transplantation and Hepato‐Biliary‐Pancreatic Surgery

Journal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cryopreserved venous allografts, which we pioneered in 1999 for use in living donor liver transplantation and hepato‐biliary‐pancreatic surgery, are widely used and are believed to preserve vascular architecture with minimal anticoagulation or immunosuppression requirements and patency comparable to autologous grafts.

The Role of Routine Staging Laparoscopy for Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma in Underserved Populations: A 14‐Year Experience at a Safety‐Net Hospital

Journal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background There are no consensus guidelines for staging laparoscopy (SL) in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and existing data largely reflect insured referral populations. Routine SL has not been studied in underserved patient populations who face disparities in cancer diagnosis and treatment.
