A recent study demonstrates that positive surgical margins in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) do not vary significantly with resection type, supporting selective use of wedge resection without compromising oncologic outcomes.
Normothermic regional perfusion (NRP) offers a promising approach to reduce ischemic injury in pancreas and islet transplantation using donation after circulatory death (DCD) donors, improving graft quality and expanding donor availability.
This study analyzes nationwide data from Japan comparing robotic, laparoscopic, and open distal pancreatectomy for malignancy, highlighting robotic surgery’s safety and specific perioperative advantages, notably reduced blood loss and conve
A clear, evidence-based summary of the 2026 SGO–SAGES clinical practice statement recommending integration of metabolic and bariatric surgery into multidisciplinary care for women with EIN and endometrial cancer.
A Six Sigma–based quality improvement initiative substantially reduced operative times and increased surgical throughput in lower extremity microsurgical reconstruction without compromising limb salvage outcomes.
A large nationwide Swedish study reveals that surgical unit volume has minimal impact on recurrence rates after elective open anterior mesh groin hernia repair, but low-volume units face higher risks during emergency repairs.
Expedited discharge (≤4 days) following isolated coronary artery bypass grafting is linked to shorter hospital stays, lower costs, and reduced 30-day readmissions without increased mortality or major complications, supporting selective impl
This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of robotic whole-graft liver transplantation (RLT) in 44 patients, demonstrating benchmark-level perioperative outcomes with a focus on operative time improvement through the learning curve in sp
This prospective study from India evaluates the diagnostic accuracy of RIPASA versus Modified Alvarado Score in acute appendicitis, highlighting RIPASA’s superior sensitivity and discrimination in an Asian surgical cohort.
This study reveals significant sex-based disparities in access to robot-assisted surgery operative experience, showing female surgeons perform fewer robot-assisted procedures than males, potentially impacting career progression.
This study elucidates the prognostic importance of bile duct resection margin status in distal cholangiocarcinoma, revealing that margin involvement significantly affects recurrence risk in node-negative patients and identifies potential ca
This article examines the current gaps and strengths in mental health services for trauma surgery patients at risk of PTSD, highlighting underutilization of guidelines, barriers to care, and opportunities for improving psychosocial support.
Hypofractionated ablative radiation therapy after induction chemotherapy shows promise in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer, improving resectability and 2-year survival while maintaining acceptable safety profiles.
A multicenter study finds that unintentional weight loss is common in Zenker diverticulum but does not predict worse surgical outcomes. Surgery appears safe and beneficial even in patients with weight loss.
Adding cervical thymectomy to parathyroidectomy in MEN1 patients was associated with higher cure rates and no permanent increase in hypoparathyroidism, supporting its routine use.
Background Tracheostomy remains a common intervention in critically ill patients requiring prolonged mechanical ventilation, offering…
A retrospective study of 324 patients found that combining septal extension and derotation grafts yields more durable nasal lengthening and tip projection with lower revision rates than either technique alone.
Endoscopic repair of congenital choanal atresia using mucoperiosteal flaps without stenting shows high long-term neochoanal patency but a significant reoperation rate, underscoring the need for diligent follow-up and tailored postoperative
Venting gastrostomy tube placement in malignant bowel obstruction is linked to improved diet tolerance, fewer vomiting episodes, and reduced antiemetic use, with successful placement achievable in over 90% of cases despite challenges.
Delaying additional surgery beyond 35 days after noncurative endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) in early gastric cancer reduces operative time and blood loss, potentially improving perioperative outcomes.
