Pancreatic cystic space-occupying lesions-Diagnostics, treatment and follow-up care : Current recommendations taking the current German S3 guidelines on pancreatic cancer into account
Chirurg. 2022 Mar 22. doi: 10.1007/s00104-022-01616-9. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDue to their increased detection pancreatic cystic space-occupying lesions are becoming increasingly relevant in the clinical routine and represent a morphologically and biologically heterogeneous and thus clinically demanding as well as potentially (pre)malignant entity. As a result, recommendations for the diagnostics and treatment of pancreatic cystic tumors have now been incorporated into the current German S3 guidelines on pancreatic cancer. The diagnostics of pancreatic cystic space-occupying lesions are based on the following three ...

Pathological processing in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma-What is new?
Chirurg. 2022 Mar 15. doi: 10.1007/s00104-022-01615-w. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe macroscopic and microscopic assessments of pancreatic cancer resection specimens belong to the standard repertoire of any department of pathology. In recent years standards have been developed regarding both macroscopic and microscopic assessments, which are laid down in international and national guidelines and classifications and are regularly updated. In this way the reporting of results and interdisciplinary communication are facilitated. These classifications and guidelines are influenced by current studies and the data from them ...

Minimum case volumes from the perspective of university providers
Chirurg. 2022 Mar 7. doi: 10.1007/s00104-022-01604-z. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe association between patient volume and treatment quality has been sufficiently proven for certain surgical interventions (e.g., resections of the esophagus and pancreas). International experience shows that centralization of patient care in these fields leads to an improvement in outcome quality. If properly enforced, minimum caseload requirements can induce centralization effects in the hospital market. Overcapacities in the German hospital market and high nationwide in-hospital mortality rates (e.g., nationwide postoperative hospital ...
