Background and Objective: Robotic distal pancreatectomy (DP) is an emerging attractive approach, but its role compared with laparoscopic or open surgery remains unclear. Benchmark values are novel objective tools for such comparisons. The aim of this study was to identify benchmark cutoffs many outcome parameters DP without splenectomy beyond the learning curve. Methods: This analyzed outcomes from international expert centers patients undergoing robotic malignant benign lesions. After...
Background Current imaging methods for prediction of complete margin resection (R0) in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) are not reliable. Purpose To investigate whether tumor-related and perivascular CT radiomic features improve preoperative assessment arterial involvement surgically proven PDAC. Materials Methods This retrospective study included consecutive PDAC who underwent surgery after between 2012 2019. A three-dimensional segmentation tissue surrounding the...
The scope of our study was to compare the predictive ability American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) 7th and 8th edition in gallbladder carcinoma (GBC) patients, investigate effect AJCC nodal status survival, identify risk factors associated with survival after N reclassification using National Database (NCDB) period 2005–2015. cohort consisted 7743 patients diagnosed GBC; 202 met criteria for were denoted as stage ≥III by criteria. Overall concordance indices similar when classified (OS...
Minimally invasive inguinal lymph node dissection (MILND) is a novel approach to lymphadenectomy. SAFE-MILND (NCT01500304) multicenter, phase I/II clinical trial evaluating the safety and feasibility of MILND for patients with melanoma in group surgeons newly adopting procedure.Twelve from 10 institutions without any previous experience, enrolled into prospective study after completing specialized training including didactic lectures, participating hands-on cadaveric laboratory, being...
Abstract Background A growing number of centers offer hepatic artery infusion pump (HAIP) chemotherapy for advanced liver malignancies. While small series have demonstrated feasibility robotic HAIP placement, comparison outcomes with open placement is lacking. We compared after versus placement. Methods retrospectively reviewed without concurrent hepatectomy at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center from 1 January 2011 to 15 September 2022, and Duke Health November 2018 18 May 2023. Patients...
