R0 Resection Critical for Node-Positive Pancreatic Cancer
R1 resection is linked to significantly worse survival in node-positive pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma patients.
Intrathecal Morphine Matches Continuous Wound Infiltration Pain Control
Intrathecal morphine is as effective as continuous wound infiltration for pain management after open pancreatoduodenectomy.
Robotic Total Pancreatectomy After Robotic Pancreaticoduodenectomy
This study shows that robotic remnant total pancreatectomy (r-rtp) after robotic pancreaticoduodenectomy is a feasible option with promising outcomes.
Pancreatic neck margin testing shows limited benefit in cancer surgery.
Surgical efforts to clear positive margins may lead to worse overall survival outcomes.
Preoperative Chemotherapy for Perihilar Cholangiocarcinoma: No Negative Impact on Surgery
Preoperative chemotherapy in perihilar cholangiocarcinoma shows similar surgical outcomes to those who do not receive it.
Minimally Invasive Surgery Cuts Costs and Improves Outcomes
Minimally invasive hepatopancreatobiliary surgery leads to significant cost savings and shorter recovery compared to open surgery.
Robotic Pancreatoduodenectomy Cuts Recovery Time
Robotic pancreatoduodenectomy (rpd) significantly accelerates postoperative recovery compared to open pancreatoduodenectomy (opd).
Robotic Liver Resection is Safe and Feasible for Selected Patients
Early experience with the da Vinci SP system shows promising outcomes for robotic liver resections.
Improved Decision-Making for Pancreatic Cysts
Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) significantly enhances diagnosis for pancreatic cystic neoplasms when MRI results are inconclusive.
