This article examines the incidence and management of intraoperative adverse events during robot-assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy, highlighting their impact on surgical results and postoperative recovery.
This national study identifies key factors linked to 30-day nonelective readmissions after open lower extremity revascularization, highlighting stable readmission rates despite reduced procedure volume and the need for standardized discharg
Analysis reveals growing Medicare payment disparities between hospitals and physicians for general surgery procedures from 2019 to 2023, highlighting urgent policy needs for alignment to sustain equitable surgical care delivery.
Social vulnerability significantly elevates mortality and complications after major cardiac surgery, and treatment at high-volume centers does not mitigate these disparities, highlighting the need for systemic interventions beyond hospital
The CLAEG study prospectively evaluated radical surgery in adenocarcinoma of the oesophagogastric junction, demonstrating that prioritizing abdominal lymphadenectomy, neoadjuvant therapy, total gastrectomy, and laparoscopic approaches yield
This randomized trial analysis compares the costs and quality-adjusted life years of robotic versus open pancreatoduodenectomy, revealing no significant cost differences but a lower probability that robotic surgery is cost-effective at six
A quality improvement project demonstrates the feasibility and high patient satisfaction of a smartphone app for daily symptom tracking and timely intervention after pancreatic surgery, potentially reducing complications and readmissions.
This nationwide Dutch cohort study reveals sex- and age-specific differences in mortality, long-term survival, and postdischarge care after ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm repair, emphasizing the need for tailored management in women.
Since 2012, waiting times from diagnosis to first cancer surgery have significantly increased across major US cancers, disproportionately affecting vulnerable populations and high-volume academic centers, underscoring urgent need for system
This study quantitatively compares the direct healthcare costs of thyroid radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and hemithyroidectomy over one year, revealing cost advantages of RFA driven by reduced facility use, tempered by factors like repeat pr
A decade-long follow-up of the SECA-II study demonstrates that liver transplantation in highly selected patients with nonresectable colorectal liver-only metastases yields substantial long-term survival and may offer curative potential even
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 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
