Background Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) presents a significant clinical challenge due to its high fatality rate and limited surgical candidacy. With only 30-40% of patients eligible for surgery upon diagnosis, alternative therapies are imperative. This study assesses the efficacy Yttrium-90 (Y-90) radioembolization unresectable ICC in non-university tertiary care center (NUTCC). Methods A retrospective analysis 15 treated with Y-90 was conducted. Tumor response, survival, adverse...
Background Bile duct injuries (BDI) occur in 0.2%-0.6% of cholecystectomies. Early definitive repair prevents clinical deterioration, reduces hospital stays, and cuts costs, while delayed repairs may reduce postoperative stricture rates. Currently, there are no guidelines to support early vs repair. Using our institution’s risk stratification, we hypothesize that low-risk patients can undergo without increased complications. Methods This retrospective study reviewed 53 with BDI treated...
(1) Background: Mixed Reality (MR) technology, such as the HoloLens, offers a novel approach to preoperative education. This study evaluates its feasibility and effectiveness in improving patient comprehension comfort during informed consent for pancreatoduodenectomy. (2) Methods: A single-center, randomized, controlled pilot was conducted between February May 2023. Patients recommended pancreatoduodenectomy were randomized into control group receiving standard education or an intervention...
Abstract Background Evidence-based interventions may reduce mortality in surgical patients. This study documented the prevalence of sepsis, adherence to guidelines its management, and timing source control general patients presenting as an emergency. Methods Patients aged 16 years or more with emergency surgery problems were identified over a 7-day period then screened for sepsis compliance (using Sepsis Six standards, devised severe sepsis) (whether radiological surgical). Exploratory...
Intracholecystic papillary neoplasm (ICPN) of the gallbladder is a rare tumor described as mucosal exophytic neoplastic lesion that projects into lumen. In regards to size, lesions did not make arbitrary 1cm cutoff are "incipient" ICPN. Not much known about these incipient ICPNs, they often excluded in ICPN studies, given attempted adherence traditional cutoff. We present youngest reported case incipient, non-mucinous gastric-pylorus type who underwent cholecystectomy. Resection with...
Dissemination of research depends on published work being accessible. In many disciplines open access (OA) is more frequently cited, although this has never before been demonstrated amongst anatomy publications. The objective study was to assess a selection papers determine the effect gold and bronze OA availability citation rates.Taken together, 625 peer-reviewed publications were identified from 2927 abstracts presented at meetings AACA (2003-2010) BACA (2000-2015).In total 18.75% (69 368)...
The Americas Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary Association (AHPBA) Education and Training Committee standardized a Hepatopancreatobiliary (HPB) Surgery Fellowship certification process in 2010. Several classes of fellows have since graduated from HPB, combined Society Surgical Oncology/AHPBA, American Transplant Surgeons/AHPBA fellowships, but there is little information on their career outcomes. We seek to offer long-term data the careers HPB fellowship graduates.A 26-question anonymous survey was...
Background/Objective: Optimal approach for lower anterior resection has been closely debated. The relatively new addition of the robotic adds a layer complexity to this topic. majority literature compared possible approaches between two techniques; however, only few studies have comprehensively all 3 at same time, especially in non-academic center. Study Design: This is retrospective cohort study prospectively maintained database data from large group private-practice colorectal surgeons...
Abstract Introduction Shift work is associated with sleep and circadian disruption, which may have adverse effects on the gut microbiome. However, little known about relationship between shift microbiome in free-living humans. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether detrimentally impacts Methods Day- night-shift workers were recruited from clinical settings. Mann-Whitney tests used compare alpha-diversity (Inverse Simpson), beta-diversity (Bray-Curtis dissimilarity), taxa relative...
Introduction Several pathophysiologic changes after the Whipple procedure have been well described, but anemia has not. Post-surgical can impede micronutrient absorption. We hypothesize that patients post-pancreatoduodenectomy suffer from iron deficiency anemia.Methods Patients who underwent a pancreatoduodenectomy 2016 to 2018 were retrospectively evaluated. Preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative data, including hemoglobin (Hb) levels mean corpuscular volume (MCV) as therapies with...
Introduction: Critics have challenged the routine use of robotics for cholecystectomy. With stable optics and interchangeable instruments Xi DaVinci platform we analyzed clinical financial benefits a robotic approach. Methods: Retrospective analysis matched Intuitive data was performed to evaluate use, outcomes impact Cost using 80% utilization systems average hospital cost United States. Results: The study cohort had similar demographics presentation including Obesity (BMI>35), cirrhosis,...
