This study demonstrates that preoperative MRI-based disruption of brain hub connectivity predicts long-term seizure recurrence in temporal lobe epilepsy surgery patients, enhancing postoperative risk stratification beyond conventional clini
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
This prospective study compares periareolar and inframammary breast augmentation techniques in transgender women, revealing similar complication rates and high patient satisfaction across approaches.
Postoperative colonic ischemia is a rare but severe complication after colectomy for colorectal cancer, primarily linked to specific resection types and vascular comorbidities, significantly impacting patient morbidity and mortality.
A comprehensive analysis of 1,191 dorsal preservation rhinoplasties reveals the evolution, classification, and optimized outcomes of this surgical technique, highlighting a refined framework that enhances patient selection and reduces revis
This post hoc analysis of the Neotorch phase 3 trial demonstrates that adding toripalimab to chemotherapy perioperatively in stage III resectable NSCLC improves tumor and nodal downstaging, reduces surgery cancellation, and significantly en
This study identifies key patient-level factors associated with failure to rescue after major gynecologic oncology surgery, emphasizing complication severity and physiological reserve over procedure complexity.
Robotic cholecystectomy for complex gallbladder disease reduces postoperative complications and interventions compared to laparoscopic surgery without increasing total costs, suggesting a strategic role for robotic platforms in complex case
A large-scale study of Swiss surgical patients reveals that nearly 20% of those experiencing major complications die in-hospital. Critical variations between institutions suggest that over 1,000 deaths could be avoided through improved orga
A national Swiss study reveals that 1 in 5 surgical patients experiencing major complications die, with nearly 15% of these deaths linked to institutional performance gaps rather than patient risk factors.
A large-scale analysis of over 83,000 cases reveals that laparoscopic hysterectomy may offer lower complication rates and shorter hospital stays than vaginal hysterectomy, prompting a re-evaluation of current surgical guidelines for benign
The CARE feasibility trial demonstrates that a preoperative low-energy total diet replacement program is safe and effective for colorectal cancer patients with excess weight. Significant weight loss was achieved without compromising lean mu
The MOPED study of over 6,000 European patients reveals significant international variations in perioperative diabetes management. Findings demonstrate that higher preoperative HbA1c levels and practice inconsistencies are linked to fewer d
A randomized trial found personalized, remotely coached prehabilitation improved preoperative physical and cognitive function, produced distinct immunologic dampening of inflammatory signaling, and reduced moderate-to-severe postoperative c
A large multicenter cohort shows that both diagnosed and previously unrecognized diabetes (by HbA1c) are common in general surgery patients and independently linked to higher 30‑day complications, readmissions, and mortality—supporting rout
This analysis reveals pervasive underreporting of clinical relevance thresholds in studies comparing open, laparoscopic, and robotic inguinal hernia repairs, urging a shift beyond p-values to improve evidence-based surgical decisions.
