Can Risk-Based Thromboprophylaxis Practice Guidelines be Safely Used in Esophagectomy Cases? Experience of an Academic Health System
Conclusion In this esophagectomy cohort, Caprini guideline indicated VTE prophylaxis resulted in reduced inpatient VTE events without increasing bleeding complications. Risk-based VTE prevention measures should be considered in this patient cohort known to be at heightened risk for postoperative VTE. (Source: Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery)

Duodenum-Preserving Pancreatic Head Resection for Benign and Premalignant Tumors —a Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Surgery-Associated Morbidity
ConclusionDPPHR for benign pancreatic tumors is associated with significantly fewer surgery-related, serious, and severe postoperative complications and lower in-hospital mortality compared to PD. Tailored use of DPPHRt or DPPHRp contributes to a reduction of surgery-related complications. DPPHR has the potential to replace PD for benign tumors and premalignant cystic and neuroendocrine neoplasms of the pancreatic head. (Source: Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery)

Feasibility and Outcomes of Same-Day Surgery in Primary and Reoperative Laparoscopic Hiatal Hernia Repair
ConclusionLaparoscopic hiatal hernia repair can be performed as same-day surgery in the majority of primary and reoperative procedures with good outcomes and low postoperative emergency department visits and readmissions. The odds of same-day surgery are higher with opioid-free anesthesia, lower ASA, and shorter operative time. (Source: Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery)

Comparison of Spleen-Preservation Versus Splenectomy in Minimally Invasive Distal Pancreatectomy
ConclusionsSpleen-preservation is not associated with increased risk of blood loss, longer hospital stay, conversion, nor lengthy OR times. Late splenectomy is very rarely required. Given the immune consequences of splenectomy, spleen-preservation should be strongly considered in MIDP. (Source: Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery)

Postoperative Day 1 Drain Amylase After Pancreatoduodenectomy: Optimal Level to Predict Pancreatic Fistula
ConclusionDA-D1 < 720U/L after elective PD is a clinically useful predictor of CR-POPF. For patients with negligible to intermediate FRS, surgeons should consider utilizing DA-D1 < 720 U/L for removal of a drain on the first postoperative day. (Source: Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery)
