| 1 | Is there a role for arterial reconstruction in surgery for pancreatic cancer?显示文摘Surgery remains the only potentially curative treatment for patients with pancreatic cancer. Locally advanced pancreatic cancer with vascular involvement remains a surgical challenge because high perioperative risk and the uncertainty of a survival benefit. Whilst portal vein resection has started to gather momentum because the perioperative morbidity and long term survival is comparable to standard pancreatectomy, there isn't yet a consensus on arterial resections. There have been various reports and case series of arterial resections in pancreatic cancer, with mixed survival results. Mollberg et al have appraised the heterogeneous published literature available on arterial resection in pancreatic cancer in an attempt to compare this to standard pancreatectomy. In this article, we discuss the results of this systematic review and meta-analysis, and the limitations associated with analysing results from heterogenous data. We have outlined the important features in surgery for pancreatic cancer and specifically to arterial resections, and compared arterial resections to the published literature on venous resections. | Reena Ravikumar David Holroyd Giuseppe Fusai | 2013 | World Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery2013，5，3： | 5 |
| 2 | Role of colectomy in preventing recurrent primary sclerosing cholangitis in liver transplant recipients显示文摘AIM To study the published evidence on the impact of colectomy in preventing recurrent primary sclerosing cholangitis(r PSC). METHODS An unrestricted systematic literature search in Pub Med, EMBASE, Medline Ovid SP, ISI Web of Science, Lista(EBSCO) and the Cochrane library was performed on clinical studies investigating colectomy in liver transplantation(LT) recipients with and without r PSC in the liver allograft. Study quality was evaluated according to a modification of the methodological index for non-randomized studies(MINORS) criteria. Primary endpoints were the impact of presence, timing and type of colectomy on r PSC. Overall presence of inflammatory bowel disease(IBD), time of IBD diagnosis, posttransplant IBD and immunosuppressive regimen were investigated as secondary outcome.RESULTS The literature search yielded a total of 180 publications. No randomized controlled trial was identified. Six retrospective studies met the inclusion criteria of which 5 studies were graded as high quality articles. Reporting of IBD was heterogenous but in four publications, either inflammatory bowel disease, ulcerative colitis or in particular active colitis post-LT significantly increased the risk of r PSC. The presence of an intact(i.e., retained) colon at LT was identified as risk factor for r PSC in two of the high quality studies while four studies found no effect. Type of colectomy was not associated with r PSC but this endpoint was underreported(only in 33% of included studies).Neither tacrolimus nor cyclosporine A yielded a significant benefit in disease recurrence of primary sclerosing cholangitis(PSC).CONCLUSION The data favours a protective role of pre-/peri-LT colectomy in r PSC but the current evidence is not strong enough to recommend routine colectomy for r PSC prevention. | Bettina M Buchholz Panagis M Lykoudis Reena Ravikumar Joerg M Pollok Giuseppe K Fusai | 2018 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2018，24，28： | 1 |
