Robot-assisted distal pancreatectomy (RDP) is increasingly used as an alternative to laparoscopic (LDP) in patients with resectable pancreatic cancer but comparative multicenter studies confirming the safety and efficacy of RDP are lacking.An international, multicenter, retrospective, cohort study, including consecutive undergoing LDP for 33 experienced centers from 11 countries (2010-2019). The primary outcome was R0-resection. Secondary outcomes included lymph node yield, major...
Introduction Worldwide, morbid obesity incidence has increased dramatically in the last decade and surgery is at this moment recognized as only effective treatment with long-term sustained weight loss resolution or significant improvement comorbidities. Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) was successfully carried out by several groups a bridge to future laparoscopic bariatric procedures acceptable reduction LSG considered safe procedure sporadically reported complications, such bleeding...
Background. Changes in BUN have been proposed as a risk factor for complications acute pancreatitis (AP). Our study aimed to compare changes versus the Bedside Index Severity Acute Pancreatitis (BISAP) score and Physiology Chronic Health Evaluation-II (APACHE-II), well other laboratory tests such haematocrit its variations over 24 h C-reactive protein, order determine most accurate test predicting mortality severity outcomes AP. Methods. Clinical data of 410 AP patients, prospectively...
Abstract Background Benchmarking is the process to used assess best achievable results and compare outcomes with that standard. This study aimed in minimally invasive distal pancreatectomy splenectomy (MIDPS). Methods retrospective included consecutive patients undergoing MIDPS for any indication, between 2003 2019, 31 European centres. Benchmarks of main clinical were calculated according Achievable Benchmark Care (ABC™) method. After identifying independent risk factors severe morbidity...
International guidelines recommend monitoring the use and outcome of minimally invasive pancreatic surgery (MIPS). However, data from prospective international audits on distal pancreatectomy (MIDP) are lacking. This study examined robot-assisted (RDP) laparoscopic (LDP) in E-MIPS registry.
To assess the association between neoadjuvant therapy and overall survival (OS) in patients with left-sided resectable pancreatic cancer (RPC) compared to upfront surgery. Left-sided is associated worse OS right-sided cancer. Although currently seen as not effective RPC, current randomized trials included mostly RPC. International multicenter retrospective study including consecutive after resection for pathology-proven either or surgery 76 centers from 18 countries on 4 continents...
Background: Pancreatoduodenectomy with venous resection (PDVR) may be performed to achieve tumour clearance in patients a pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) involvement. This study aimed evaluate the impact of PDVR on PDAC outcomes. Methods: In total, 435 either R0 status (n = 322) or R1 within superior mesenteric vein groove 113) were extracted from Recurrence After Whipple's (RAW) dataset. matched 1:2 ratio standard PD patients. Comparisons then made between two groups (surgical...
Objective Our main purpose was to compare the modified computed tomography severity index (MCTSI), (CTSI), and acute physiological chronic health evaluation (APACHE)‐II predictions regarding according revised Atlanta classification 2012 local complications in pancreatitis a consecutive prospective cohort. Methods One hundred forty‐nine patients diagnosed with were prospectively enrolled. APACHE‐II, MCTSI, CTSI calculated for all cases. Severity parameters included persistent organ or...
Abstract Background Benchmarking is an important tool for quality comparison and improvement. However, no benchmark values are available minimally invasive spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy, either laparoscopically or robotically assisted. The aim of this study was to establish benchmarks these techniques using two different methods. Methods Data from patients undergoing assisted pancreatectomy were extracted a multicentre database (2006–2019). Benchmarks 10 outcomes calculated the...
Abstract Background Surveillance of pancreatic cysts focuses on the detection (mostly morphologic) features warranting surgery. European guidelines consider elevated CA19.9 as a relative indication for We aimed to evaluate role monitoring early and management in cyst surveillance population. Methods The PACYFIC‐registry is prospective collaboration that investigates yield performed at discretion treating physician. included participants whom least one serum value was determined by minimum...
Abstract Background The impact of pre-existing comorbidities on acute pancreatitis (AP) mortality is not clearly defined. Our study aims to determine the trend in AP hospital and role as a predictor mortality. Methods We analyzed patients aged ≥ 18 years hospitalized with diagnosis between 2016 2019. data have been extracted from Spanish National Hospital Discharge Database Ministry Health. performed univariate multivariable analysis association age, sex, AP. Charlson Elixhauser comorbidity...
Abstract Background Pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) is associated with significant postoperative morbidity. Surgeons should have a sound understanding of the potential complications for consenting and benchmarking purposes. Furthermore, preoperative identification high-risk patients can guide patient selection potentially allow targeted prehabilitation and/or individualized treatment regimens. Using large multicentre cohort, this study aimed to calculate incidence all PD identify risk factors....
Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC) occasionally spreads to the pancreas. The purpose of our study is evaluate short and long-term results a multicenter series in order determine effect surgical treatment on prognosis these patients.Multicenter retrospective patients undergoing surgery for RCC pancreatic metastases, from January 2010 May 2020. Variables related primary tumor, demographics, clinical characteristics metastasis, location pancreas, type resection performed data evolution after were...
Recurrent isolated pancreatic metastasis from Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC) after resection is rare. The purpose of our study to describe a series cases relapse renal cancer in the remnant and its surgical treatment with repeated resection, analyse results both overall disease-free survival.
Objective: To evaluate machine learning models’ performance in predicting acute pancreatitis severity using early-stage variables while excluding laboratory and imaging tests. Summary Background Data: Severe (SAP) affects approximately 20% of (AP) patients is associated with high mortality rates. Accurate early prediction SAP in-hospital crucial for effective management. Traditional scores such as APACHE-II BISAP are complex require tests, predictive models lacking. Machine (ML) has shown...
Abstract Background The value of serum triglycerides (TGs) related to complications and the severity acute pancreatitis (AP) has not been clearly defined. Our study aimed analyze association elevated levels TG with AP. Methods demographic clinical data patients AP were prospectively analyzed. measured in first 24 h admission. Patients divided into two groups: one values of<200 mg/dL another TG≥200 mg/dL. Data on outcomes collected. Results From January 2016 December 2019, 247 cases...
Abstract Background The relevance of elevated serum triglyceride (TG) levels in the early stages acute pancreatitis (AP) not induced by hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) remains unclear. Our study aims to determine role TG at admission developing pancreatic necrosis. Methods We analyzed clinical data collected prospectively from patients with AP. According measured first 24 h after admission, we stratified into four groups: Normal (< 150 mg/dL), Borderline-high (150–199 High (200–499 mg/dL) and...
