In penetrating liver trauma, angioembolization offers survival outcomes comparable to surgery but is linked to longer hospital and ICU stays, highlighting the need for strategic patient selection and multidisciplinary care integration.
Vulvar cancer exhibits significant recurrence rates, predominantly local, with survival declining sharply after recurrence. Awareness of recurrence-associated symptoms enhances early detection. Surgery remains pivotal in management, with fr
A study reveals a higher prevalence of rapid CYP2C19 metabolizer phenotypes in GERD patients undergoing surgery versus medical therapy, supporting tailored proton pump inhibitor dosing and timely surgical referral.
An accessible, clinician-oriented summary of the 2026 Global Chordoma Consensus—multidisciplinary, anatomy-stratified recommendations on diagnosis, surgery, high‑dose conformal radiotherapy, follow-up, and supportive care for localized chor
A major randomized trial found that chemotherapy before surgery did not improve 3-year disease-free survival in locally advanced colon cancer, but it still revealed important clues for more personalized treatment.
The PRETREAT trial found that proactive blood pressure management tailored by risk of intraoperative hypotension does not reduce postoperative functional disability compared to standard care in noncardiac surgery.
Pragmatic clinical trials offer innovative solutions to overcome unique challenges in surgical research, enhancing evidence quality and applicability by integrating flexible, routine-care-based trial designs and leveraging real-world data.
A nationwide Danish study reveals that while 40% of left-sided infective endocarditis patients have surgical indications, only half undergo surgery. Those receiving surgery are younger, less comorbid, and show improved survival, underscorin
The SURF trials found no significant difference in survival or recurrence-free outcomes between surgery and radiofrequency ablation for small hepatocellular carcinoma, supporting RFA as a less invasive, equally effective option.
The SURF trials found no significant difference in survival or recurrence between surgery and radiofrequency ablation for small hepatocellular carcinoma, supporting both as valid first-line options.
The DISTRICTS trial demonstrates that initial surgical treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome leads to significantly higher recovery rates at 18 months compared to starting with corticosteroid injections, despite similar adverse event profile
The VIDEOGO trial shows that online video consultations are non-inferior to face-to-face consultations for preoperative assessment in major abdominal surgery, achieving similar patient satisfaction and information recall.
