🧬Can transpapillary biopsies enable genomic profiling in BTC?
Suitability remained low and panel-dependent: 31% with NCCOP (a Japanese panel) vs. 3.4% with F1CDx.
❄️ Fresh-frozen samples yielded better DNA than FFPE.

🚨🫀Machine perfusion (NMP) in high-MELD liver transplantation: less injury, but no better outcomes?
☀️More daytime surgery
📉Lower peak ALT
🟰No improvement in major short-term outcome
👉Benefits of NMP may be context-dependent.

🩸Does perioperative transfusion affect survival after pancreatic surgery?
Kwon et al. found increased mortality after transfusion:
👉The association persisted for 5 years after PD
👉No long-term association after DP
