RESUMO
The Gore-Tex® polytetrafluoroethylene patch is one of the most used prostheses for diaphragm, vessel, and pericardial reconstruction. It is strong, flexible, and relatively inexpensive and can be fitted to match the size of the resected area. In addition, it can be used to reconstruct the pericardium and diaphragm following resection to treat diffuse malignant pleural mesothelioma or repair large hiatal hernias. However, the use of polytetrafluoroethylene for hepatocellular carcinoma with diaphragmatic and pericardial invasion has not yet been reported. We report the case of a 72-year-old man with hepatocellular carcinoma with diaphragmatic and pericardial invasion. Subsequently, laparotomic liver subsegmentectomy of segment 3 and resection of the diaphragm and pericardium were performed. The defects were successfully reconstructed using the polytetrafluoroethylene patch, without postoperative complications. This is the first report describing a case of invasive liver malignancy that required simultaneous diaphragmatic and pericardial reconstruction using a polytetrafluoroethylene patch, indicating that the polytetrafluoroethylene patch could effectively and directly treat invasive liver malignancies.
RESUMO
This preliminary study is the first to demonstrate that AI can precisely identify loose connective tissue during laparoscopic cholecystectomy and ICG fluorescent cholangiography. Tashiro and colleagues conclude that this novel real-time navigation modality fusing AI and ICG fluorescent imaging may enhance safety and provide more reliable laparoscopic or robotic surgery.

We demonstrate high-output-power and high-efficiency operation of 1.3-µm-wavelength InP-based photonic-crystal surface-emitting lasers (PCSELs). By introducing a metal reflector and adjusting the phase of the reflected light via optimization of the thickness of the p-InP cladding layer, we successfully achieve an output power of approximately 400â mW with the slope efficiency of 0.4 W/A and the wall-plug efficiency of 20% under CW conditions. In addition, this PCSEL exhibits a narrow circular beam with a divergence angle below 1.6° even at high output powers under CW conditions at temperatures from 15°C to 50°C. We have also demonstrated an output power of over 12 W under pulsed conditions at room temperature.
RESUMO
Laparoscopic total gastrectomy (LTG) for remnant gastric cancer (RGC) requires advanced techniques due to severe postoperative adhesions and anatomic changes. We performed LTG in 2 patients with RGC using intraoperative indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging. Both cases previously underwent distal gastrectomy with Billroth-I reconstruction for gastric cancer and were subsequently diagnosed with early-stage gastric cancer of the remnant stomach. Indocyanine green (2.5 mg/body) was administered intravenously during surgery. The liver and common bile duct were clearly visualized during surgery using near-infrared fluorescence laparoscopy, and the adhesions between the hepatobiliary organs and remnant stomach were safely dissected. Laparoscopic total gastrectomy was successfully performed without complications, and the postoperative course was uneventful in both cases. Intraoperative real-time ICG fluorescence imaging allows clear visualization of the liver and common bile duct and can be useful in LTG for RGC with severe adhesions.

Retroperitoneal cavernous hemangioma, a rare vascular tumor, has only 30 PubMed cases. Preoperative diagnostic criteria are unclear and often present asymptomatically until complications such as rupture or compression arise. We present a 73-year-old with chronic abdominal pain and a giant retroperitoneal tumor. Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed an irregular space-occupying mass in the retroperitoneum, suggesting a retroperitoneal chronic expanding hematoma. Total surgical resection confirmed the diagnosis as retroperitoneal cavernous hemangioma.
RESUMO
Tashiro and colleagues demonstrated for the first time that an artificial intelligence system can precisely identify intrahepatic vascular structures during laparoscopic liver resection in real time through color coding under bleeding and indocyanine green fluorescent imaging. The system supports real-time navigation and offers potentially safer laparoscopic or robotic liver surgery.

BACKGROUND/AIM: Laparoscopic hepatectomy (LH) requires accurate visualization and appropriate handling of hepatic veins and the Glissonean pedicle that suddenly appear during liver dissection. Failure to recognize these structures can cause injury, resulting in severe bleeding and bile leakage. This study aimed to develop a novel artificial intelligence (AI) system that assists in the visual recognition and color presentation of tubular structures to correct the recognition gap among surgeons. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Annotations were performed on over 350 video frames capturing LH, after which a deep learning model was developed. The performance of the AI was evaluated quantitatively using intersection over union (IoU) and Dice coefficients, as well as qualitatively using a two-item questionnaire on sensitivity and misrecognition completed by 10 hepatobiliary surgeons. The usefulness of AI in medical education was qualitatively evaluated by 10 medical students and residents. RESULTS: The AI model was able to individually recognize and colorize hepatic veins and the Glissonean pedicle in real time. The IoU and Dice coefficients were 0.42 and 0.53, respectively. Surgeons provided a mean sensitivity score of 4.24±0.89 (from 1 to 5; Excellent) and a mean misrecognition score of 0.12±0.33 (from 0 to 4; Fail). Medical students and residents assessed the AI to be very useful (mean usefulness score, 1.86±0.35; from 0 to 2; Excellent). CONCLUSION: The novel AI presented was able to assist surgeons in the intraoperative recognition of microstructures and address the recognition gap among surgeons to ensure a safer and more accurate LH.

OBJECTIVE: We aimed to elucidate the feasibility of surveillance of patients with mucinous cystic neoplasm (MCN). METHODS: We performed a retrospective, multi-institutional study of 328 patients who underwent surgery for MCN at 18 Japanese institutions. Patients with MCN were divided into an immediate surgery group and a surveillance group, which underwent surgery after surveillance. RESULTS: The median surveillance period until surgery in the surveillance group was 27 months (range, 7-165 months). Compared with the immediate surgery group, the surveillance group showed smaller tumor diameter (46 vs 50 mm, P = 0.01), more frequent laparoscopic approach (58% vs 37%, P < 0.01), and less frequent malignancy (7% vs 15%, P = 0.03). The new appearance of mural nodules and elevation of serum tumor markers were associated with malignancy in the surveillance group. Two patients in the surveillance group experienced postoperative recurrence, although there was no significant difference in recurrence or disease-free survival between the two groups. In the surveillance group, the 1-, 5-, and 10-year cumulative incidence rates of malignant MCN were 0.8%, 5.6%, and 36.5%, respectively. CONCLUSION: As the risk of progression to malignant MCNs increases over the long term, MCNs should be resected rather than subjected to unnecessary surveillance.

BACKGROUND/AIM: Indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence is useful in laparoscopic hepatectomy (LH) for tumor identification and staining, as well as determination of resection margins. At our Institution, patient-specific, three-dimensional simulations and rehearsal of surgical strategies are carried out preoperatively. We describe cases in which ICG administered preoperatively became stagnated and fluoresced in an area similar to the preoperatively established resection area and the pathological findings in these cases. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Four patients who underwent LH at our hospital between 2020 and 2023 (due to hepatocellular carcinoma in two and colorectal liver metastasis in two) were enrolled in the present study. The ICG-fluorescing liver segments were resected laparoscopically and their pathological characteristics were examined using a fluorescence microscope. RESULTS: In four cases, the areas of ICG fluorescence seen intraoperatively were due to stasis of preoperatively administered ICG, which fortuitously was equivalent to the planned resection area in the preoperative patient-specific simulation. The fluorescent areas were resected; there were no cases of bile leakage or recurrence. Fluorescence microscopy revealed areas with diffuse ICG fluorescence in normal hepatocytes on the tumor's peripheral side. CONCLUSION: It was suggested that resection of the liver area that was fluorescent due to stagnation of preoperatively administered ICG was rational and justified both anatomically and oncologically. This resection may also contribute to the prevention of bile leakage and recurrence.

Background/Aim: According to the Tokyo Guidelines 2018, the operation for acute cholecystitis is recommended to be performed as early as possible. However, there are cases in which early surgeries cannot be performed due to complications of patients or facility conditions, resulting in elective surgery. Hence, we retrospectively analyzed elective surgery cases in this study. Patients and Methods: There were 345 patients who were underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) at our hospital from January 2019 to December 2020 in this retrospective study. A total of 83 patients underwent LC more than 3 days after conservative treatment. The elective LC patients were divided into the Early group (4-90 days after onset, n=36) and the Delayed group [91 days or more (13 weeks or more) after onset, n=31], excluding 16 patients who underwent percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage. Results: As for operative time, there was a significant difference between the Delayed and Early groups (91.2 vs. 117 minutes, p=0.0108). And also, there was a significant difference in the postoperative hospital stay, which was significantly shorter in the Delayed group than in the Early group (3.4 vs. 5.9 days, p=0.0436). Although there were no significant differences in either conversion rates or complication rates, both of these were decreasing in the Delayed group. In particular, there were no complications in the Delayed group. Conclusion: When the conservative treatment for acute cholecystitis precedes and precludes urgent/early LC within 3 days, delaying LC for at least 91 days (13 weeks or more) after onset could reduce operative time and postoperative hospital stay. Moreover, there would be no complications after LC, and the rates of conversion during LC may be kept low.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: We aimed to investigate Piezo1 expression in myofibroblasts in symptomatic and asymptomatic patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy and its relationship with atherosclerotic plaque formation. METHODS: This cross-sectional study analyzed carotid plaques of 17 randomly selected patients who underwent carotid endarterectomy from May 2015 to August 2017. In total, 51 sections (the most stenotic lesion, and the sections 5-mm proximal and distal) stained with hematoxylin-eosin and elastica-Masson were examined. Immunohistochemistry was performed using antibodies to Piezo1. The Piezo1 score of a section was calculated semiquantitatively, averaged across 30 randomly selected myofibroblasts in the fibrous cap of the plaque. RESULTS: Of 17 patients (mean age: 74.2 ± 7.1 years), 15 were men, 9 had diabetes mellitus, and 13 had hypertension. Symptomatic patients had higher mean Piezo1 score than asymptomatic patients (1.78 ± 0.23 vs 1.34 ± 0.17, p < .001). Univariate linear regression analyses suggested an association between plaque rupture, thin-cap fibroatheroma and microcalcifications and the Piezo1 score (p = .001, .008, and 0.003, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: Increased Piezo1 expression of myofibroblasts may be associated with atherosclerotic carotid plaque instability. Further study is warranted to support this finding.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence-guided surgery is a real-time navigation technology for tumor detection, securing surgical margins, segmentation mapping, and cholangiography in liver surgery [1]. According to recent reports, the Medical Imaging Projection System (MIPS) may be a useful new real-time navigation technology for open anatomical liver resection [2]. However, the efficacy of MIPS for tumor identification, cholangiography, and securing surgical margins is uncertain. In this report, we introduce MIPS-assisted liver resection for real-time navigation during simultaneous tumor identification, cholangiography, and securing surgical margins. METHODS: A 76-year-old man presented with a 30 × 30 mm recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma on the transection plane after right anterior sectionectomy. Eight radiofrequency ablations were performed after the first hepatectomy. Preoperative computed tomography and three-dimensional simulation revealed a tumor near the posterior Glissonean branch. One day before surgery, 2.5 mg/body ICG was administered. We analyzed whether MIPS could simultaneously facilitate tumor identification, cholangiography, and securing surgical margins. The relationship between fluorescent imaging and the surgical margin was evaluated with a fluorescent microscope [3]. RESULTS: Simultaneous tumor identification, cholangiography, and securing the surgical margins were demonstrated by adjusting the image projection of MIPS, and R0 resection was achieved without biliary injury (Figs. 1 and 2). The operative time and estimated blood loss were 287 minutes and 394 mL, respectively. He was discharged on postoperative day 12 without any complications. CONCLUSION: MIPS could be useful for real-time navigation for tumor identification, cholangiography, and securing surgical margins during liver surgery. The threshold of fluorescent intensity should be set for optimal image projection.

BACKGROUND: It is unclear how effective recombinant thrombomodulin (rTM) treatment is in disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) during the perioperative period of gastrointestinal and hepato-biliary-pancreatic surgery. The current study aimed to evaluate the therapeutic outcomes of rTM for perioperative DIC. METHODS: We enrolled 100 consecutive patients diagnosed with perioperative DIC after gastrointestinal surgery, and hepato-biliary-pancreatic including emergency procedures, between January 2012 and May 2021. Patients received routine rTM treatment immediately after DIC diagnosis. Then, the DIC, Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA), and Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II scores were calculated and used for evaluation. The outcomes of rTM treatment and the predictors of survival were evaluated. RESULTS: The causative diseases of DIC were as follows: perforated peritonitis, n = 38; intestinal ischemia, n = 23; intra-abdominal abscess, n = 13; anastomotic leakage, n = 7; pneumonia, n = 7; cholangitis, n = 4; and others, n = 6. The 30-day mortality rate was 18.0%. There were significant differences in the platelet count (13.78 vs 10.41, P = .032) and the SOFA score (5.22 vs 9.89, P<.0001) at the start of DIC treatment between the survivor and non-survivor groups (day 0). The survivor group had a significantly lower DIC score (3.13 vs 4.93, P = .0006) and SOFA score (4.94 vs 12.14, P < .0001) and a higher platelet count (13.50 vs 4.34, P < .0001) than the non-survivor group on day 3. CONCLUSIONS: Comprehensive and systemic treatment is fundamentally essential for DIC, in which rTM may play an important role in the treatment of perioperative DIC.

Indocyanine green fluorescence imaging (ICG-FI)-a sensitive tool for detecting tumor localization in laparoscopic surgery-produces false positive results for benign liver tumors. This report is the first case of hepatic angiomyolipoma (HAML) treated laparoscopically with ICG-FI. We present the case of a 31-year-old woman with a liver tumor that was a 13-mm mass in the anterior superior segment. Though a benign tumor was suspected, malignant potential could not be ruled out. Therefore, minimally invasive laparoscopic resection using ICG-FI was planned. ICG, intravenously injected preoperatively, revealed the tumor's existence. Pure laparoscopic hepatectomy with ICG-FI was performed for excisional biopsy, during which the tumor was resected with adequate surgical margins, followed by histological confirmation of HAML. In conclusion, it is suggested that laparoscopic resection with ICG-FI is an effective minimal invasive surgery for tumors that are difficult to detect, such as HAML, leading to a safe surgical margin.

Colorectal perforation is a serious disease with high mortality requiring emergency surgery. This study aimed to evaluate the role of the endotoxin activity assay (EAA) to assess the severity in patients admitted to the intensive care unit after emergency surgeries for colorectal perforations. Patients were divided into high (EAA ≥.4) and low (EAA <.4) groups based on the EAA levels, and the correlation between the EAA values and clinical variables related to the severity was evaluated. The SOFA scores were significantly higher in the high group than those in the low group. The high EAA value persisted even after 48 hours and extended the ICU length of stay. These results suggest that EAA may be a potential biomarker to assess severity and useful as one of the instrumental in predicting the outcomes for colorectal perforation patients.

Objectives: Intraoperative fluorescence imaging is currently used in a variety of surgical fields for four main purposes: visualising anatomy, assessing tissue perfusion, identifying/localising cancer and mapping lymphatic systems. To establish evidence-based guidance for research and practice, understanding the state of research on fluorescence imaging in different surgical fields is needed. We evaluated the evidence on fluorescence imaging used to visualise anatomical structures using the IDEAL framework, a framework designed to describe the stages of innovation in surgery and other interventional procedures. Design: IDEAL staging based on a thorough literature review. Setting: All publications on intraoperative fluorescence imaging for visualising anatomical structures reported in PubMed through 2020 were identified for five surgical procedures: cholangiography, hepatic segmentation, lung segmentation, ureterography and parathyroid identification. Main outcome measures: The IDEAL stage of research evidence was determined for each of the five procedures using a previously described approach. Results: 225 articles (8427 cases) were selected for analysis. Current status of research evidence on fluorescence imaging was rated IDEAL stage 2a for ureterography and lung segmentation, IDEAL 2b for hepatic segmentation and IDEAL stage 3 for cholangiography and parathyroid identification. Enhanced tissue identification rates using fluorescence imaging relative to conventional white-light imaging have been documented for all five procedures by comparative studies including randomised controlled trials for cholangiography and parathyroid identification. Advantages of anatomy visualisation with fluorescence imaging for improving short-term and long-term postoperative outcomes also were demonstrated, especially for hepatobiliary surgery and (para)thyroidectomy. No adverse reactions associated with fluorescent agents were reported. Conclusions: Intraoperative fluorescence imaging can be used safely to enhance the identification of anatomical structures, which may lead to improved postoperative outcomes. Overviewing current research knowledge using the IDEAL framework aids in designing further studies to develop fluorescence imaging techniques into an essential intraoperative navigation tool in each surgical field.
RESUMO
INTRODUCTION: The bioimpedance spectroscopy (BIS) method is used in individual patients requiring body fluid volume measurement. In a hemodialysis facility, however, regular screening of body fluid volumes is also necessary. Such screening, by kinetic modeling, may become possible by calculating distribution volumes of urea and uric acid from regular blood test results. OBJECTIVE: The aim is to compare uric acid distribution volumes with BIS-extracellular volume, urea distribution volume with BIS-total body water, and difference between urea and uric acid distribution volumes with BIS-intracellular volume. METHODS: We reanalyzed stored blood test data of 53 hemodialysis patients obtained together with BIS data of the same patients in our previous study. RESULTS: Significant correlations were found between urea distribution volume and total body water predicted by the BIS method, between uric acid distribution volume and extracellular volume predicted by the BIS method, and between the difference of uric acid distribution volume from urea distribution volume and intracellular volume predicted by the BIS method. In Bland-Altman analysis, comparison of each pair showed no systematic error. The mean difference between each pair was minimal. CONCLUSION: Fluid volumes in different body compartments can be estimated by kinetic modeling as well as by the BIS method.

BACKGROUND/AIM: Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is used to treat primary and metastatic tumors in the liver. However, local recurrence after RFA is frequent and subsequent salvage hepatectomy is often ineffective due to difficulty in visualization of tumor margins. PATIENTS AND METHODS: In the present retrospective clinical trial, seven patients from the Department of General and Gastro-enterological Surgery, Showa University School of Medicine underwent salvage hepatectomy for recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) (n=2), colorectal liver metastasis (n=4) and lung-carcinoid liver metastasis (n=1), after RFA, between 2011 and 2020. Tumors were labeled with indocyanine green (ICG) and resected under fluorescence guidance. Resected specimens were evaluated under fluorescence microscopy as well as by standard histopathological techniques. RESULTS: Pathological findings revealed negative tumor margins in all patients after fluorescence-guided surgery. Six of seven resected tumors had a fluorescent rim, including both HCC and liver metastasis. Fluorescence microscopy demonstrated that viable cancer tumor cells were located only on the inside of the fluorescent rim, and no malignant cells were detected within the fluorescent rim surrounding the tumor. Fluorescence microscopy showed that the tumor margin was secured if the fluorescence signal was completely resected. CONCLUSION: The present results demonstrate that ICG labeling of liver tumors recurring after RFA enabled complete resection under fluorescence guidance. The present study is the first clinical study to demonstrate that tumor types that generally cannot be completely resected with bright light are fully resectable under fluorescence guidance.

AIM: To evaluate the complication rates and risk factors associated with transumbilical incision (TUI) and comprehensively examine differences according to the procedures using propensity score matching. PATIENTS AND METHODS: The study involved 737 patients who underwent laparoscopic procedures between 2009 and 2017 (Japanese University-Hospital-Medical-Information-Network Clinical Trials Resistry No. 000040653). The occurrences of superficial surgical site infection (SSI) and TUI hernia were analyzed. RESULTS: SSI occurred in 17 patients (2.31%) and hernia occurred in 29 (3.93%). Multivariate analysis revealed that female sex and diabetes mellitus were correlated with incisional hernia. Propensity score-matching analysis was performed to compare those who underwent colorectal resection with those who underwent other resections; the results showed that the former had a significantly higher rate of TUI hernia (p<0.001), as well as a significantly higher incidence of SSI (p=0.004). CONCLUSION: A significant higher incidence of SSI and TUI hernia in laparoscopic colorectal resection was found. The construction of the TUI was feasible with rationality.
