Hepatic artery infusion chemotherapy: A resurgence Open
In this manuscript, we comment on the article by Zhou et al , who assessed the efficacy of hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) and its combination strategies for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) using network meta-analysis…

A case series of emergency pancreaticoduodenectomies: What were their indications and outcomes? Open
Emergency pancreaticoduodenectomy (EPD) is a rarely performed operation. It is important to know the indications and outcomes of EPD to have a better understanding of its application in clinical practice. A review of eight consecutive case…

A combined endoscopic and robotic approach for Mirizzi syndrome: the short- and long-term outcomes Open
Aims: We present the technique of a combined endoscopic and robotic approach for Mirizzi syndrome (MS) and report the short- and long-term results. Methods: Between July 2012 and August 2020, all patients with suspected MS underwent endosc…

Acute kidney injury following hepatectomy and its impact on long-term survival for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma Open
Background Acute kidney injury (AKI) is increasingly being recognized after hepatectomy. This study aimed to identify factors predicting its occurrence and its impact on long-term outcome among patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).…

Single-center experience on actual mid-term (≥5 years) and long-term (≥10 years) survival outcome in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma after curative hepatectomy Open
Analysis for actual mid-term (≥5 years) and long-term (≥10 years) survivors with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) following curative hepatectomy are rarely reported in the literature. This retrospective study aims to study the mid- and long-…

Comparison of long-term survival outcome after curative hepatectomy between selected patients with non-colorectal and colorectal liver metastasis: A propensity score matching analysis Open
Hepatectomy for NCLM can achieve similar oncological outcomes in selected patients as those with CLM. Significant prognostic factors were identified associating with worse overall survival.

ERAS in minimally invasive hepatectomy Open
Open hepatectomy is associated with significant post-operative morbidity and mortality profile. The use of minimally invasive approach for hepatectomy can reduce the post-operative complication profile and total length of hospital stay. En…

Robotic resection for posterosuperior liver lesions: is it really superior to laparoscopic resection? Open
Recovery after traditional open liver resection is greatly hindered by a big upper abdominal incision. This is especially true when the scale of parenchymal liver resection is relatively small, such as wedge resection or left lateral secti…

Enhanced recovery after surgery for liver resection Open
The ERAS perioperative programme for liver resection is safe and feasible. It significantly shortened the hospital stay after open liver resection but not after laparoscopic liver resection.

Pattern of disease recurrence and its implications for postoperative surveillance after curative hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma: experience from a single center Open
These findings suggest that recurrent diseases are common after curative hepatectomy for HCC and most recurrences occur in the remnant liver. Since almost half of recurrences occurred within first 9 months after hepatectomy, a more stringe…
