膵臓へ向かう神経と動脈は、背側の筋膜をどこで越えるのでしょうか。解剖体8体の解析では、腹腔動脈・上腸間膜動脈の根部周囲に筋膜のない狭い領域があり、神経と動脈の通り道になっていました。

Temporary venous bypass may facilitate complex pancreatic tumor resections with extensive vascular involvement, with mesoportal bypass favored when hepatic arterial resection is also required. ovid.com/10.1097/SLA.0000000…

🔥#PANODE trial @DPCG_official published in @BjsOpen: what is the rate and survival impact of involved lymph node station (LNS) 16b1 (aortocaval)?
🔑 8-13% involved LNS16b1 ➡️ in 1218 Whipples for #PancreaticCancer and #perimapullary cancer
3-year overall survival + vs - LNS 16b1 pos:
❌ 5.2% vs 35% for PDAC
❌ 0% vs 45% for distal cholangioca
❌ 0% vs 61% for ampullary cancer
➡️ Future studies should assess routine preoperative and intraoperative sampling of LNS 16b1 and the impact of neoadjuvant treatment.

Excellent nationwide collaboration @DPCG_official 🇳🇱 with training by international experts 🇺🇸🇩🇪
Surgical outcomes from nationwide implementation of the international best practice for locally advanced pancreatic cancer (PREOPANC-4) study
➡️ doi.org/10.1093/bjs/znag075
Nationwide implementation of the international best practice for LAPC was feasible with nearly three times more resections performed than expected, while morbidity and mortality remained well within predefined safety benchmarks
