ALT An informational graphic with a blue and purple gradient background. At the top left, a pink pill-shaped badge reads "Pancreas" above "Expert-to-Expert" with three pink dots below. At the top right, a white box reads "Made possible by Cincinnati Children's." The main text in the center reads: "A 2yoM with acute recurrent pancreatitis has a 10-gene pancreatitis gene panel that comes back positive for a PRSS1 mutation." Below this, a large pink rectangular button contains the question: "DOES THE GENE CHANGE THE OPERATION?" At the bottom left, it reads "1/4", and at the bottom right is a white double-headed arrow pointing right.

ALT An informational graphic with a blue and purple gradient background titled "WHAT PRSS1 TELLS YOU" in large white text. At the top left, a pink oval reads "Pancreas" above the text "Expert-to-Expert" and three pink dots. The top right features a logo for Cincinnati Children's with the text "Made possible by." The main text is organized into two sections: 1. **WHY IT STARTS SO EARLY:** "In one referral center's registry of a thousand children, 80% carried an identifiable mutation. Trypsinogen activates inside the gland instead of the duodenum. The pancreas digests itself, and these children can present at 1–3 years old." 2. **WHAT ELSE IT CARRIES:** "A PRSS1 mutation raises the lifetime risk of pancreatic cancer by a large factor." In the bottom-left corner, it reads "2/4" next to a white arrow pointing right.

ALT Graphic with a blue gradient background featuring the heading "PRSS1 CHANGES THE OPERATION" under the label "THE SURGEON'S VIEW." A large quote reads: "I would be very hesitant to offer a segmental resection on a patient that has a [PRSS1] mutation." A headshot of Dr. Juan Pablo Gurria, a smiling man with dark hair, is positioned in the bottom-left corner next to his name and title: "Juan Pablo Gurria, MD, MSc, Surgical Director, Pancreas Care Center, Cincinnati Children’s." In the top right, a logo for Cincinnati Children's is displayed next to the text "Made possible by." The top left features a pink label reading "Pancreas Expert-to-Expert," and the bottom right has a white arrow pointing to the right next to the page indicator "3/4."

ALT An informational graphic with a blue-to-purple gradient background, titled "THE TAKEAWAY: A POSITIVE PRSS1 RESULT MEANS..." At the top left, a pink badge reads "Pancreas: Expert-to-Expert". At the top right, a white card reads "Made possible by Cincinnati Children’s." The main text is a numbered list: 1. **Reframe the surgical strategy.** Genetic disease continues in any remnant, so total pancreatectomy is a better option than partial resection. 1. **Operate for refractory pain,** not cancer prophylaxis. Total pancreatectomy causes surgical diabetes; TPIAT mitigates it, but many children stay partly insulin-dependent. 1. **Counsel the family** on an elevated lifetime pancreatic cancer risk. At the bottom left, the page number is "4/4".

ALT An infographic with a blue gradient background presenting a clinical question under the heading "Oncology Clinical Foundations." In the upper right corner, a white box says "Made possible by Cincinnati Children's." The main text asks: "A 2yo with hepatoblastoma has AFP levels >300,000 ng/mL & bilateral lung metastases. On cisplatin and doxorubicin. The liver mass initially shrank on serial MRI, then stalled." Below this, a prominent mustard-yellow button asks: "ANOTHER CYCLE OF CHEMO, OR RESECTION?" At the bottom left is the page indicator "1/4", and at the bottom right is a white arrow pointing to the right.

ALT An educational slide with a blue gradient background and the title "Oncology Clinical Foundations," featuring the logo for Cincinnati Children's. Under the header "WHAT THE SPECIMEN SHOWED," large bold text reads: "MORE THAN 90% DEAD". Two histology micrographs on the right show pink and purple stained tissue with circular structures containing pink fluid. The main text reads: "At resection, this tumor appeared as mostly pools of blood and fibrous tissue, with a few scattered pockets of viable cells. But it still occupies volume. Tumor response is tracked with serial MRI and AFP. Early on, tumor cell death is accompanied by tumor shrinkage, but this changes partway through induction." An arrow in the bottom right corner points to the right next to "2/4".

ALT An informational graphic with a blue gradient background and the word "Oncology" faintly layered behind. At the top left, an orange oval button reads "Oncology" above "Clinical Foundations" and three small circles. At the top right is a white badge that reads "Made possible by Cincinnati Children's." In the center, a large white block quote reads: "Once chemotherapy effect takes place, the tumors may not change much in size beyond a certain point." Below, a portrait shows Sarangarajan Ranganathan, MD, a smiling man with glasses, grey hair, a black suit, and a red patterned tie. To his right, white text reads: "Sangarajan Ranganathan, MD, Endowed Chair and Division Director, Division of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Cincinnati Children's." At the bottom left, it says "3/4," and at the bottom right is a white arrow pointing right.

ALT An educational infographic with a blue gradient background and the title "Oncology Clinical Foundations," made possible by Cincinnati Children’s. The main text reads: "SLOWED TUMOR SHRINKAGE ALONE ISN'T A REASON TO ADD MORE CHEMO CYCLES Most of the shrinkage comes in the first blocks of induction. The plateau is your cue to interpret the AFP alongside imaging, and to start planning surgical resection." Under a second header, "THE TAKEAWAY," the text continues: "When size plateaus and the AFP is still falling, the mass consists of mostly necrosis and scarring. Another cycle won't shrink it. That’s the point where the planning moves from chemotherapy to resection." The bottom left corner indicates this is slide 4 of 4.

ALT Event flyer for STACS 2026, the 17th Annual Southwest Trauma & Acute Care Symposium, presented by the Arizona Trauma Association. The event is scheduled for November 19–20, 2026, at the Phoenix Convention Center in Phoenix, Arizona. The flyer features a speaker highlight for Adrian Santini, MD, MS, from Banner University Medical Center Tucson. A portrait of Dr. Santini, smiling in a white lab coat and tie, is shown on the right against a background of Saguaro cacti and a desert mountain landscape overlooking a city skyline. Dr. Santini is presenting: 1. From Open Repair to Endovascular Precision: Advances in Thoracoabdominal Aortic Trauma 2. Contemporary Management of Peripheral Vascular Injuries An infographic at the bottom titled "Why Attend STACS 2026?" lists five benefits with corresponding icons: Learn, Connect, Improve, Collaborate, and Make an Impact.
