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.
In a 12-hospital Dutch registry, surgical myectomy effectively relieved LVOT obstruction, but 30-day complications were more frequent in low-volume centers, in women, and when at least two concomitant procedures were performed.
In a large single-center cohort, Graves’ disease patients with preoperative TSH ≥10.0 μIU/mL had greater blood loss, larger preoperative thyroid enlargement, and longer operations, suggesting that avoiding iatrogenic hypothyroidism during s
In OPINION, prophylactic left atrial appendage occlusion during valve surgery did not significantly lower stroke, TIA, or cardiovascular death at 1 year in patients without pre-operative atrial fibrillation.
Wearable activity tracking in the DIPLOMA-2 trial found that minimally invasive pancreatoduodenectomy led to more activity for about 5 weeks and less physiologic stress up to 90 days versus open surgery.
In the SANO cohort, 85% of patients with uncertain post-chemoradiotherapy response had residual tumor at esophagectomy, supporting surgery for most, while highlighting a notable complete response subgroup among squamous cell carcinoma with
