The aim of the current study was to compare the inflammatory response after laparoscopic and open resection of colorectal liver metastases (CLM) in a randomized controlled trial. This was a predefined exploratory substudy within the Oslo CoMetstudy. Forty-five patients with CLM were randomized to laparoscopic (n ...

      Background. Resection margin status is considered one of the few surgeon-controlled parameters affecting prognosis in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). While studies mostly focus on resection margins in pancreatoduodenectomy, little is known about their role in distal pancreatectomy (DP). This study aimed to investigate resection margins in DP for PDAC.<p> <p>Methods. Patients who ...
