Operative Outcomes for Polycystic Liver Disease: Results of a Large Contemporary Series
ConclusionsThis is among the largest case series exploring PCLD operative outcomes, revealing that surgical intervention for debulking for advanced PCLD is safe and effective for symptom management. Furthermore, patients with PCLD undergoing hepatectomy tolerate significant liver volume loss without evidence of impaired hepatic function. (Source: Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery)

Surgical Planning for “Borderline Resectable” and “Locally Advanced” Pancreatic Cancer During Open Pancreatic Resection
AbstractPancreatic resection for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most complex procedures in abdominal surgery due to the technical and oncological challenges given by its local aggressive growth.
