Adj HIPEC with Ox during 30 minutes did not improve the Recurrence Free Survival in COLOPEC trial, however adjuvant HIPEC with MMC improved the locoregional control rate at 3 y in HIPECT4 trial. jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…

Happy to share our work from @metrohealthCLE (FREE download from @SurgJournal until December 23!) on #MALS. For MALS surgeons out there, are you routinely performing a ganglionectomy and lymphadenectomy? @jamiepdecicco @fnuraja @MalsNational authors.elsevier.com/a/1i1K6…

The first ever Radiomics 👾 preoperative fistula risk score !!! Development 🇳🇱 and external validation 🇮🇹 🐳 The radiomics-based preop FRS performed similarly to the existing scores ( ROC 0.8) 💪 Great added value considering only CT derived data! academic.oup.com/bjsopen/art…

We know that the risk of small intestinal NETs (siNETs) is increased among 1st degree relatives - I am following a few families. This GWAS study identified 4 novel risk loci for small intestinal NETs including a missense mutation in LGR5. Very interesting sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Important paper. Can ChatGTP give patients the wrong information. Study finds nearly a third of recs were not concordant with NCCN guidelines. Garbage in ➡️ garbage out. We saw this during Covid. ⁦@JAMAOnc⁩ ⁦@SWOG⁩ ⁦@DavendraSohal⁩ jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…

The role of adjuvant chemotherapy (AC) in patients with ampullary adenocarcinoma (AA) remains controversial. This study aimed to determine if AC improve the prognosis of patients with resected AA. Read at: journals.lww.com/journalacs/…

Drainage of large walled off pancreatic necroses 🥎 a RCT from 🇩🇰 EUS guided Plastic 🤜🤛 LAMS 🟰 technical success (95 / 100%); adverse events and length of stay 🤔 for large WON are LAMS not superior?! Want to hear comments from my endo friends! gut.bmj.com/content/72/6/116…

A twist in the management of small (1.1 to 2 cm) nonfunctional panc NETs or not...? This NCDB study suggested a survival benefit of resection after adjusting for various pre-op factors. I still support observation of NF pNETs ≤2 cm. What do others think? jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…
