Near-infrared autofluorescence heterogeneity measurement provides a real-time, quantitative tool during parathyroidectomy to distinguish hyperfunctional parathyroid glands from normal tissue, aiding surgical precision and potentially improv
The DREAM method enables complete enteral nutrition in short bowel syndrome, enhancing intestinal adaptation and protecting liver function by restoring gut-liver signaling pathways, as demonstrated in a neonatal pig model.
A nationwide Swedish cohort study shows same-admission cholecystectomy significantly reduces recurrence and complications after gallstone-related acute pancreatitis compared to ERCP alone or no intervention.
This study identifies dual cutoff values of 0 and 1 mm for radial margin distance in perihilar cholangiocarcinoma, providing a simple and effective stratification tool for postoperative recurrence risk and survival prediction.
This review synthesizes current evidence on lung cancer surgical quality improvement, highlighting the impactful American College of Surgeons Lung NODES Collaborative’s success in improving lymph node sampling compliance and broader a
A comprehensive national study shows both normothermic regional perfusion (NRP) and normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) significantly improve graft survival in DCD liver transplantation, supporting their adoption as complementary standards
This review synthesizes evidence on the long-term survival, excess mortality, and health-related quality of life in patients after chronic subdural hematoma surgery, emphasizing sustained mortality risks and cognitive-physical deficits up t
A multicenter trauma study found that 20.1% of surgically treated Morel-Lavallée lesions developed wound complications. Pedestrian-versus-vehicle injury was the only independent predictor of postoperative problems.
This review synthesizes evidence comparing rotational chair therapy and manual maneuvers in uncomplicated BPPV, highlighting comparable efficacy, quality-of-life improvements, and patient-specific considerations for recurrence and treatment
Lateral diaphragmatic relaxing incisions may help reduce tension during difficult hiatal hernia repair. In this retrospective series, most patients had improved reflux symptoms, but long-term recurrence data are still needed.
Lateral relaxing diaphragmatic incisions may help reduce tension during difficult hiatal hernia repairs, improving symptom control in redo and giant hernia cases, though long-term recurrence data are still needed.
In a 14-institution cohort of more than 508,000 operations, MySurgeryRisk maintained high discrimination for ICU admission, mechanical ventilation, acute kidney injury, and in-hospital mortality using routine electronic health record data.
A multicenter prospective cohort study suggests that substantial surgeon social jet lag, but not midsleep variability alone, is associated with higher 30-day major adverse event risk after surgery and correlates with surgeon burnout.
CRISPR-engineered GGTA1/B4GALNT2/SLA-DR knockout pigs remained healthy, screened negative for 55 zoonotic pathogens, and supported long-term renal xenograft function in rhesus monkeys when preformed anti-SLA antibodies were absent.
Machine learning identified two distinct bilateral hepatocellular carcinoma phenotypes with different tumor burdens, surgical approaches, and outcomes, suggesting preoperative risk stratification may improve patient selection and treatment
This review synthesizes findings from the Bridge to HOPE multicenter trial and other recent evidence, demonstrating that portal-venous hypothermic oxygenated perfusion (HOPE) significantly reduces early allograft dysfunction, improves bilia
In complex redo and giant hiatal hernia repair, lateral diaphragmatic relaxing incisions were feasible and associated with favorable patient-reported symptom control at 24 months, although objective recurrence data are still lacking.
A modified diaphragmatic relaxing incision technique may reduce tension during difficult redo and giant hiatal hernia repairs, with most patients reporting improved reflux symptoms and low postoperative symptom burden.
A nationwide Danish cohort found lower risks of reoperation for recurrence and bowel obstruction after onlay mesh placement compared with retromuscular repair and IPOM in elective primary ventral hernia repair.
The American Thyroid Association’s updated consensus refines who can safely undergo outpatient thyroid surgery and what teams must do before, during, and after the operation to reduce complications.
