Abstract Background Several important changes were made to the 8th edition of American Joint Committee on Cancer ( AJCC ) tumor staging system for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma ICC ). We assessed prognostic impact this new compared 7th edition. Methods A retrospective single‐institution study was performed with 626 patients who underwent R0 resection over 20‐year period. Results Anatomical and concurrent bile duct in 571 (91.2%) 62 (9.9%) patients, respectively. Cumulative recurrence...
Our aim was to investigate the predictive factors for development of a rebound phenomenon after temporary hemiepiphysiodesis in children with genu valgum.We studied 37 limbs idiopathic valgum who were treated hemiepiphyseal stapling, and more than six months remaining growth at removal staples. All followed until skeletal maturity or two years staples.On multivariate logistic regression analysis, rate correction, body mass index (BMI), age, initial valgus angle significantly associated...
BACKGROUND This study aimed to assess patterns of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) recurrence after liver transplantation (LT) and establish long-term surveillance protocols for late HCC recurrence. MATERIAL AND METHODS The 232 LT recipients experiencing subsequent were categorized as Group 1, early (within 1 year LT; n=117); 2, (occurring in years 2-5; n=93); 3, very (after 5; n=22). RESULTS Recurrence was detected by only elevated tumor marker levels 11.1%, 30.1%, 45.5% patients Groups...
BACKGROUND Hepatic artery (HA) reconstruction in living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) is more technically demanding than deceased LT (DDLT) because of the small diameter and short HA stump partial graft. Hence, hepatic thrombosis (HAT) can occur infrequently even though reconstructed microscopically. HAT closely related to graft failure mortality. Therefore, should be detected early flow reconstituted using several arterial inflows. We successfully performed redo LDLT report our...
Background: The aim of this study is to investigate the perioperative composite textbook outcomes pancreatic surgery after minimally invasive pancreatoduodenectomy (MIPD). Materials and methods: cohort was conducted across 10 institutions included 1552 patients who underwent MIPD registered with Korean Study Group on Minimally Invasive Pancreatic Surgery between May 2007 April 2020. We analyzed MIPD. Subgroup analyses were performed assess based hospital volume Results: Among all patients,...
[b]BACKGROUND[/b] Because of the supply shortage for homologous vein allografts, we previously used ringed Gore-Tex vascular grafts middle hepatic (MHV) reconstruction in living donor liver transplantation. However, owing to subsequent unavailability grafts, replaced them with Hemashield grafts. This study aimed compare patency that [b]MATERIAL AND METHODS[/b] was a retrospective double-arm between group (n=63) and historical control (n=126). [b]RESULTS[/b] In groups, mean age 53.1±6.2...
To understand the changing demands and recent trends in indications for living donor liver transplantation (LDLT), present study aimed to analyze LDLT performed a high-volume center over 10 years.The database at our institution was searched identify patients who underwent during 10-year period from January 2008 December 2017. The subjects (n=3,145) were divided into two groups: adult (n=3,019, 92.7%) pediatric (n=126, 3.9%).In recipients, primary diagnoses hepatitis B virus (HBV)-associated...
Hepatorenal syndrome (HRS) is a fatal complication in patients with end-stage liver disease awaiting transplantation (LT). HRS often develops high model for (MELD) score. This study investigated the outcomes of peritransplant management high-volume LT center Korea 2 years.A total 157 recipients that deceased donor (DDLT) from January 2017 to December 2018 were included. In-hospital mortality (IHM) was analyzed relation pre- and posttransplant application renal replacement therapy...
BACKGROUND:We assessed the prognostic impact of donor age on outcome adult living liver transplantation (LDLT). MATERIAL AND METHODS:The study population comprised and recipients right lobe grafts for LDLT performed from January 2005 to December 2016. There were 35 donors aged ≥50 years (old-age group). As a control group, in their 20s (young-age group) selected after one-to-one propensity score matching based sex, model end-stage disease (MELD) score, primary diagnosis. RESULTS:Donor was...
The mammalian target of the rapamycin inhibitor has dual inhibitory effects on cell growth and angiogenesis. This study aimed to analyze usage everolimus actual immunosuppression (IS) regimens through a cross-sectional in high-volume liver transplantation (LT) center.Our institutional LT database was searched for adult patients who underwent primary surgery between January 2010 December 2016. We identified 2,093 recipients with observation periods 1 8 years.We divided into three groups...
Doxifluridine (DF), an oral 5-FU prodrug, has been used for various solid cancers due to its efficacy and low toxicity. We aim evaluate the effect of DF as adjuvant monotherapy in advanced gastric cancer. retrospectively reviewed clinical data 263 patients with cancer who underwent curative gastrectomy between January 2010 December 2013 at our institute. Since previous randomized control trials have confirmed S-1 chemotherapy cancer, we analyzed oncologic patient compliance group compared...
Portal vein (PV) size matching between recipient and liver graft is important in preventing anastomotic stenosis living donor transplantation (LDLT). In right grafts, the diameter of PV usually >10 mm. Thus, does not become critical adult recipients. If very large, funneling fence can be attached to PV. However, if <8 mm, it induce stenosis. We experienced a few cases due small-sized >5000 LDLT cases, but widening was performed because considered as being no-touch area. thinking out box, we...
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) recurrence and development of de novo malignancy (DNM) after liver transplantation (LT) are the major causes late recipient death.We analyzed incidence extrahepatic DNM following living donor LT according to status pretransplant hepatic malignancy. We selected 2,076 adult patients who underwent primary LDLT during 7 years from January 2010 December 2016.The group (n = 1,012) showed 45 cases (4.4%) DNMs: posttransplant lymphoproliferative disease (PTLD) in 10;...
45% of colon cancer patients are elderly, yet they often deviated from standard management. The MOSAIC trial favored FOLFOX over FL with superior oncologic outcomes; however, which regimen is most beneficial in elderly population remains unclear. This study aimed to compare the efficacy oxaliplatin-added chemotherapy and capecitabine monotherapy high-risk stage II/stage III patients.Colon ≥70 years age who received adjuvant at Inje University Busan Paik Hospital between February 2009 April...
Prophylaxis for hepatitis B virus (HBV) recurrence is essential after liver transplantation (LT) in HBV-associated recipients. This study established an individualized HBV prophylaxis protocol, through optimization of immunoglobulin (HBIG) administration, with application simulative half-life (SHL).This involved five parts: Part 1 developed the SHL estimation method 20 patients; Parts 2 and 3 assessed variability a simulation model to apply 100 4 validated 114 patients, 5 was cross-sectional...
