- Abstract
Background: This study aimed to elucidate the clinical value of combined pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) for advanced gallbladder cancer according to the mode of cancer spread in the pancreaticoduodenal region., Methods: Patients who underwent combined PD for advanced gallbladder cancer were retrospectively reviewed. The mode of cancer spread in the pancreaticoduodenal region was defined as involvement of peripancreatic organs/structures alone, peripancreatic nodal metastasis alone, or both. Surgical outcomes were compared among these modes of spread., Results: Fifty-seven patients were included. Rates of severe morbidity and mortality were 52.6% and 3.5%, respectively. The mode of cancer spread was involvement of peripancreatic organs/structures alone in 16 patients, peripancreatic nodal metastasis alone in 17, and both in 24; R0 resection rates differed significantly among the groups (87.5% vs. 94.1% vs. 37.5%; p < 0.001). Overall survival (OS) was significantly worse in patients with both modes of spread (5-year OS, 8.3%) than in those with involvement of peripancreatic organs/structures alone (5-year OS, 37.9%; p < 0.001) and those with peripancreatic nodal metastasis alone (5-year OS, 29.4%; p = 0.011). OS was similar between pM0 patients with both modes of spread and pM1 patients (5-year OS, 16.7% vs. 8.7%; p = 0.605). Multivariate analysis identified mode of cancer spread as an independent prognostic factor (p = 0.006)., Conclusions: Combined PD could be oncologically justified for advanced gallbladder cancer with involvement of peripancreatic organs/structures alone or peripancreatic nodal metastasis alone in the pancreaticoduodenal region. This procedure would not be indicated in patients with both modes of spread., Competing Interests: Declaration of competing interest No specific funding was received for this study and the authors have no conflicts of interest to disclose., (Copyright © 2024 Elsevier Ltd, BASO ~ The Association for Cancer Surgery, and the European Society of Surgical Oncology.

- Abstract
Background: This study aimed to evaluate the adequate extent of regional lymphadenectomy according to tumor location and the impact of number-based nodal classification on survival in patients with non-ampullary duodenal adenocarcinoma (NADAC)., Methods: A total of 85 patients with NADAC who underwent surgery were enrolled. The frequency of metastasis was calculated for each node group in the respective tumor locations for 63 patients who underwent lymphadenectomy for pT2-pT4 tumor., Results: The frequency of metastasis in the pancreaticoduodenal (nos. 13 and 17) and superior mesenteric artery (no. 14) nodes was high (16.7 %-52.3 %) regardless of tumor location. Metastasis in the perigastric (nos. 3 and 4d) and right celiac artery (no. 9) nodes was not uncommon (14.3 %-22.2 %) for tumors in the first portion. The frequency of metastasis in the pyloric (nos. 5 and 6) and the other peripancreaticoduodenal (nos. 8 and 12) nodes varied depending on tumor location but could not be ignored for staging. When these nodes were classified as regional nodes, the 5-year survival in patients with pN0, pN1 (1-2 positive nodes), and pN2 (≥3 positive nodes) were 82.9 %, 51.7 %, and 19.2 %, respectively (p < 0.001). pN classification independently predicted survival (pN1, p = 0.022; pN2, p < 0.001)., Conclusions: Nos. 5, 6, 8, 12, 13, 14, and 17 nodes in all advanced NADAC and nos. 3, 4d, and 9 nodes in advanced NADAC in the first portion should be considered as regional nodes for accurate staging. The number-based nodal classification allows good patients' prognostic stratification., (© 2023 Published by Elsevier Ltd.)

- Abstract
Background: Although distant metastasis from pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has a dismal prognosis, some single center studies reported that lung metastasis has a favorable prognosis. The aim of this study is to evaluate the prognostic value of site-specific metastasis after pancreatectomy for PDAC, with a focus on lung metastasis., Methods: Data from 117 cases of lung metastasis after pancreatectomy were collected retrospectively from 23 institutions in Japan. To compare the sites of metastasis we also collected the data of 134 patients with liver only metastasis, 67 patients with peritoneal only metastasis and 121 patients with locoregional recurrence alone., Results: In patients with lung only metastasis, the median time from recurrence to death (RTD) was 23.1 months, which was better in comparison to other sites of recurrence. In lung metastasis group, the patients who underwent pulmonary resection had better long-term outcomes in comparison to those who did not. (RTD: 29.2 vs 15.2, P < .001). In the multivariate analysis, solitary metastasis (HR 5.03; 95% CI 1.195-21.144, P = .022) and postoperative chemotherapy (HR 14.089; 95% CI 1.729-114.77, P = .023) were identified as significant prognostic factors after lung resection., Conclusions: Surgical resection is a favorable option for selected patients with a solitary lung metastasis and for whom adjuvant chemotherapy can be administrated., (© 2022 Japanese Society of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Surgery.)

- Abstract
Background: This study aimed to investigate the impact of surgery on outcomes in patients with recurrent biliary tract cancer (BTC) and elucidate factors affecting survival after surgery for this disease., Methods: A single-center study was undertaken in 178 patients with recurrent BTC, of whom 24 underwent surgery for recurrence, 85 received chemotherapy, and 69 received best supportive care. Then, we carried out a multicenter study in 52 patients undergoing surgery for recurrent BTC (gallbladder cancer, 39%; distal cholangiocarcinoma, 27%; perihilar cholangiocarcinoma, 21%; intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma, 13%)., Results: In the single-center study, 3-year survival after recurrence was 53% in patients who underwent surgery, 4% in those who received chemotherapy, and 0% in those who received best supportive care (p < 0.001). Surgery was an independently prognostic factor (p < 0.001). In the multicenter series, the respective 3-year and 5-year survival after surgery for recurrence was 50% and 29% in the 52 patients. Initial site of recurrence was the only independent prognostic factor (p = 0.019). Five-year survival after surgery for recurrence in patients with single distant, multifocal distant, and locoregional recurrence was 51%, 0%, and 0%, respectively (p = 0.002). Sites of single distant recurrence included the liver (n = 13, 54%), distant lymph nodes (all from gallbladder cancer, n = 7, 29%), lung (n = 2, 9%), peritoneum (n = 1, 4%), and abdominal wall (n = 1, 4%)., Conclusion: Surgery may be an effective option for patients with less aggressive tumor biology characterized by single distant recurrence in recurrent BTC., (Copyright © 2021 International Hepato-Pancreato-Biliary Association Inc.

- Abstract
Background: The role of surgery in the management of primary cystic duct carcinoma (CDC) remains unclear especially in advanced disease. This study aimed to evaluate long-term outcomes in patients undergoing surgery for primary CDC., Methods: From a multi-institutional database, we identified 41 patients who underwent surgery for primary CDC, defined as a part of gallbladder carcinoma with the tumor centre located in the cystic duct., Results: Of the 41 patients, 31 (75.6%) underwent preoperative biliary drainage for jaundice. Twenty-eight (68.3%) patients underwent extensive resection including major hepatectomy (n = 21), pancreaticoduodenectomy (n = 4), or both procedures (n = 3). Thirty-four (82.9%) patients had ≥ pT3 tumor, while 31 (75.6%) patients had involvement of contiguous organs/structures. Nodal and distant metastasis was found in 26 (63.4%) and 7 (17.1%) patients, respectively. Most patients (90.2%) had perineural invasion. Median overall survival was 23.7 months in all 41 patients. Factors independently associated with both overall and disease-specific survival were pN (P = 0.003 and P = 0.007, respectively) and pM (P = 0.003 and P = 0.013, respectively) classification. Median survival was 75.3, 17.7, and 5.2 months for patients with pN0M0 (n = 14), pN1/2pM0 or pN0pM1 (n = 21), and pN1/2pM1 (n = 6) disease, respectively (P < 0.001)., Conclusions: Primary CDC is characterized by locally advanced disease with aggressive histopathological characteristics at surgery, leading to extensive resection during treatment. Surgery provides potential benefits for patients with pN0pM0 disease, whereas pN1/2 and/or pM1 status appear to have strong adverse effects on survival.

- Abstract
Background/purpose: Grade C postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF), as defined by International Study Group of Pancreatic Fistula (ISGPF), is the most life-threatening complication after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD). This study aims to evaluate risk factors for Grade C POPF after PD., Methods: This is a prospective, multicenter study based in Japan and Taiwan. Between December 2014 and May 2017, 3022 patients were enrolled in this study and 2762 patients were analyzed. We analyzed risk factors of Grade C POPF based on the updated 2016 ISGPF scheme (organ failure, reoperation, and/or death)., Results: Among 2762 patients, 46 patients (1.7%) developed Grade C POPF after PD. The mortality rate of the 46 patients with Grade C POPF was 37.0%. On the multivariate analysis, six independent risk factors for Grade C POPF were found; BMI ≥ 25.0 kg/m
2 , chronic steroid use, preoperative serum albumin <3.0 mg/dL, soft pancreas, operative time ≥480 minutes, and intraoperative transfusion. The c-statistic of our risk scoring model for Grade C POPF using these risk factors was 0.77. The score was significantly higher in Grade C POPF than in Grade B POPF (P < .001) or none/biochemical leak (P < .001)., Conclusions: This prospective study showed risk factors for Grade C POPF after PD., (© 2020 Japanese Society of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Surgery.)- Published

- Abstract
The patient-a Jehovah's Witness-was a woman in her 60s, with locally advanced sigmoid colon cancer. She had severe anemia, and a computed tomography scan of her abdomen showed a tumor with abscess formation and perforation that had invaded into the left urinary duct and the left ovary, without distant metastasis. It was difficult to perform curative resections without transfusion; therefore, CapeOX therapy was plannedas the neoadjuvant treatment. After 3 courses of CapeOX therapy, the patient's anemia improved, and the tumor and abscess had shrunk. Subsequently, a sigmoidectomy with D3 lymph node dissection, partial resection of the small intestine, and the left adnexectomy, as a radical surgery, were performed without blood transfusion. In cases of concomitant colon cancer with anemia that are treated with highly invasive surgery, it might be necessary to conduct systematic treatment in order to complete non-transfusion therapy.

- Abstract
Background: Bochdalek hernias are one of the most common types of diaphragmatic hernia, with most cases diagnosed during the neonatal period. In contrast, diagnosis of a Bochdalek hernia in an adult is rare and is typically observed on the left side of the diaphragm. Even more rare is the diagnosis of a right-sided Bochdalek hernia in an adult, where there is concurrent visceral malformation in most cases., Case Presentation: We describe a case of an 89-year-old female who presented with abdominal pain. An abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan showed decreased intravenous contrast uptake and thickening of the wall of herniated small intestine through the right side of the diaphragm, which led to the diagnosis of a strangulated diaphragmatic hernia. The patient underwent emergent laparotomy and required a partial resection of the necrotic ileum and a hernia repair with direct closure. Interestingly, in this case, organ malformation was not observed. The patient was discharged approximately 2 weeks after surgery without complication., Conclusions: Adult right-sided Bochdalek hernia with strangulation in the absence of hepatic atrophy is a rare entity. Considering the severity of this condition, accurate diagnosis and proper treatment are needed. A tailored operative approach is required on an individual case basis.
