This Surgical Innovation delves into the transformative potential of radiomics in liver cancer treatment, highlighting its advancements in pretreatment prognosis, noninvasive tumor profiling, and treatment response prediction, thus paving the way for more personalized therapeutic strategies.
This Surgical Innovation explores the potential that wearable augmented reality devices have for improving intraoperative imaging, patient outcomes, and surgical workflows.
This Surgical Innovation describes the use of a totally endoscopic robotic approach for mitral valve repair.
Importance Hepatobiliary cancers are heterogeneous and molecularly complex. Recent advances in next-generation sequencing (NGS) have enhanced the understanding of their molecular landscape and enabled deployment of biomarker-based gene- and immune-targeted therapies. This review examines the role of molecular testing and targeted…
This article discusses the use of intraoperative autonomic neural blockade as a technique to manage postoperative visceral pain and symptoms of postoperative nausea and vomiting in minimally invasive surgery.
Importance Active surveillance (AS) has become an increasingly important option for managing low-risk and select intermediate-risk prostate cancer. Although imaging, particularly multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI), has emerged in the prebiopsy pathway for the diagnosis of prostate cancer, the role of…
This article discusses the use of histotripsy as a noninvasive method for tumor ablation that involves mechanical destruction of tissues without the generation of heat, resulting in accurate and precise treatment without surrounding tissue damage.
This article offers tools for implementing the All of Us Research Program in surgical medicine.
Importance Biliary dyskinesia is a disorder characterized by biliary pain, a sonographically normal gallbladder, and a reduced gallbladder ejection fraction on cholecystokinin-cholescintigraphy (CCK-HIDA) scan. Laparoscopic cholecystectomy remains a common treatment for biliary dyskinesia despite a lack of high-quality evidence supporting the…
This Surgical Innovation outlines the advantages of performing a partial transplant to deliver growing heart valve implants in newborn babies.
