Abstract
BACKGROUND Venous thromboembolism (VTE) remains a persistent source of postoperative morbidity despite prevention and mitigation efforts. Cancer, surgery, and chemotherapy are known risk factors for VTE. Existing literature suggests that neoadjuvant therapy (NAT) may contribute to increased VTE risk in the postoperative period, but few authors specifically examine this relationship in distal pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC). In this study, we analyze the association of NAT and postoperative VTE in patients who underwent distal pancreatectomy (DP) for PDAC. PATIENTS AND METHODS Using the American College of Surgeons (ACS) National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) database, we analyzed the Procedure Targeted files for pancreatectomy from 2014 to 2020. Adults with PDAC who underwent DP were grouped by receipt of NAT. The primary outcome was the rate of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and the secondary outcome was the rate of pulmonary embolism (PE). We performed univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis to determine risk factors associated with postoperative DVT. RESULTS There were 4327 patients with PDAC who underwent DP. Of these, 1414 (32.7%) had NAT. Receipt of NAT was significantly associated with postoperative DVT requiring therapy (3.5% vs. 2.3%, p = 0.02), but was not associated with PE (p = 0.42). On MVA, NAT was associated with a 73% greater chance of developing postoperative DVT [odds ratio (OR) 1.73, 95% CI 1.18-2.55]. CONCLUSIONS Patients who receive NAT prior to DP for PDAC are 73% more likely to develop postoperative DVT compared with upfront resection. As NAT becomes more commonplace, these high-risk patients should be prioritized for guideline-recommended extended duration prophylaxis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies have suggested that medication with statins improves survival in patients with gastric cancer, but methodological issues have limited the interpretability and prohibited conclusive results. We aimed to provide valid evidence as to whether statin use improves survival of gastric adenocarcinoma. METHODS This nationwide and population-based cohort study included virtually all patients who underwent curatively intended surgery (gastrectomy) for gastric adenocarcinoma in Sweden between 2006 and 2015 with follow-up throughout 2019 for disease-specific mortality and 2020 for all-cause mortality. Data came from medical records and national healthcare registries. The exposure was statin use during the year prior to gastrectomy which was compared to no such use during the same period. The outcomes were 5-year disease-specific mortality (main) and 5-year all-cause mortality (secondary). Multivariable Cox regression provided hazard ratios (HR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI), adjusted for age, sex, education, calendar year, comorbidity, low-dose aspirin use, tumour sublocation, pathological tumour stage, neoadjuvant chemotherapy, annual surgeon volume, and surgical radicality. RESULTS Among 1515 participating patients, the mean age was 69 years and 58.4% were men. Statin use, identified in 399 (26.3%) patients, was not associated with any statistically significantly decreased 5-year disease-specific mortality (HR 0.99, 95% CI 0.82-1.21) or 5-year all-cause mortality (HR 0.94, 95% CI 0.79-1.12). No risk reductions were found across subgroups of age, sex, aspirin user status, or tumour stage, or in patients with long-term preoperative of postoperative use of statins, all with point estimates close to 1. CONCLUSIONS Perioperative use of statins does not seem to improve the 5-year survival in patients who undergo gastrectomy with curative intent for gastric adenocarcinoma in Sweden.

Abstract
AIMS Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression is a predictive biomarker for adjuvant immunotherapy and has been linked to poor differentiation in lung adenocarcinoma. However, its prevalence and prognostic role in the context of the novel histologic grade has not been evaluated. METHODS We analysed a cohort of 1233 patients with resected lung adenocarcinoma where PD-L1 immunohistochemistry (22C3 assay) was reflexively tested. Tumour PD-L1 expression was correlated with the new standardized International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) histologic grading system (G1, G2, and G3). Clinicopathologic features including patient outcome were analysed. RESULTS PD-L1 was positive (≥1%) in 7.0%, 23.5%, and 63.0% of G1, G2, and G3 tumours, respectively. PD-L1 positivity was significantly associated with male sex, smoking, and less sublobar resection among patients with G2 tumours, but this association was less pronounced in those with G3 tumours. PD-L1 was an independent risk factor for recurrence (adjusted hazard ratio [HR] = 3.25, 95% confidence intervals [CI] = 1.93-5.48, P < 0.001) and death (adjusted HR = 2.69, 95% CI = 1.13-6.40, P = 0.026) in the G2 group, but not in the G3 group (adjusted HR for recurrence = 0.94, 95% CI = 0.64-1.40, P = 0.778). CONCLUSION PD-L1 expression differs substantially across IASLC grades and identifies aggressive tumours within the G2 subgroup. This knowledge may be used for both prognostication and designing future studies on adjuvant immunotherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This randomized phase II study explored the superiority of trastuzumab plus S-1 plus cisplatin (SP) over SP alone as neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) for HER2-positive resectable gastric cancer with extensive lymph node metastasis. METHODS Eligible patients with HER2-positive gastric or esophagogastric junction cancer and extensive lymph node metastasis were randomized to receive three or four courses of preoperative chemotherapy with SP (arm A) or SP plus trastuzumab (arm B). Following gastrectomy, adjuvant chemotherapy with S-1 was administered for 1 year in both arms. The primary endpoint was overall survival, and the sample size was 130 patients in total. The trial is registered with the Japan Registry of Clinical Trials, jRCTs031180006. RESULTS This report elucidates the early endpoints, including pathological findings and safety. The study was terminated early due to slow patient accruals. In total, 46 patients were allocated to arm A (n = 22) and arm B (n = 24). NAC was completed in 20 patients (91%) in arm A and 23 patients (96%) in arm B, with similar incidences of grade 3-4 hematological and non-hematological adverse events. Objective response rates were 50% in arm A and 84% in arm B (p = 0·065). %R0 resection rates were 91% and 92%, and pathological response rates (≥ grade 1b in Japanese classification) were 23% and 50% (p = 0·072) in resected patients, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Trastuzumab can be safely added to platinum-containing doublet chemotherapy as NAC, and it has the potential to contribute to higher antitumor activity against locally advanced, HER2-positive gastric or esophagogastric junction cancer with extensive nodal metastasis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND It remains unclear whether addition of docetaxel to the combination of a platinum and fluoropyrimidine could provide more clinical benefits than doublet chemotherapies in the perioperative treatment for locally advanced gastric/gastro-esophageal junction (LAG/GEJ) cancer in Asia. In this randomized, phase 2 study, we assessed the efficacy and safety of perioperative docetaxel plus oxaliplatin and S-1 (DOS) versus oxaliplatin plus S-1 (SOX) in LAG/GEJ adenocarcinoma patients. METHODS Patients with cT3-4 Nany M0 G/GEJ adenocarcinoma were randomized (1:1) to receive 4 cycles of preoperative DOS or SOX followed by D2 gastrectomy and another 4 cycles of postoperative chemotherapy. The primary endpoint was major pathological response (MPR). RESULTS From Aug, 2015 to Dec, 2019,154 patients were enrolled and 147 patients included in final analysis, with a median age of 60 (26-73) years. DOS resulted in significantly higher MPR (25.4 vs. 11.8%, P = 0.04). R0 resection rate, the 3-year PFS and 3-year OS rates were 78.9 vs. 61.8% (P = 0.02), 52.3 vs. 35% (HR 0.667, 95% CI: 0.432-1.029, Log rank P = 0.07) and 57.5 vs. 49.2% (HR 0.685, 95% CI: 0.429-1.095, Log rank P = 0.11) in the DOS and SOX groups, respectively. Patients who acquired MPR experienced significantly better survival. DOS had similar tolerance to SOX. CONCLUSIONS Perioperative DOS improved MPR significantly and tended to produce longer PFS compared to SOX in LAG/GEJ cancer in Asia, and might be considered as a preferred option for perioperative chemotherapy and worth further investigation.

Abstract
PURPOSE Many countries have implemented unprecedented health measures since the World Health Organisation declared the novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) a global pandemic. These measures have resulted in delays in the diagnosis of differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC). However, there is limited data on the impact of restrictions imposed during the pandemic on DTC management. Thus, the aim of this study is to analyse the clinicopathological and follow-up data of DTC patients diagnosed before and during the COVID-19 outbreak. METHODS This retrospective study included 191 DTC patients that were diagnosed between December 2018 and June 2021. The patients were divided into two groups: patients diagnosed before (December 2018 to February 2020) and during (March 2020 to June 2021) the COVID-19 pandemic. The clinicopathological and follow-up data between the two groups were compared. RESULTS Similar preoperative cytology results were obtained from the two groups. No difference with regard to tumour size, lymphovascular invasion and extrathyroidal invasion was observed between the two groups. While the American Thyroid Association risk stratification was similar between the two groups, radioactive iodine (RAI) therapy was applied less during the COVID-19 period. Although RAI therapy was administered at a lower rate during the COVID-19 period, the recurrence rates among patients after two years of follow-up were similar to those during the pre-COVID-19 period. CONCLUSION Although the COVID-19 pandemic restrictions during the pandemic period caused difficulties in the management of DTC patients, this did not negatively affect their prognosis. These findings can confirm the applicability of active surveillance in DTC patients and may help change the real-life treatment practices in selected low-risk DTC patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Appropriate re-evaluation after neoadjuvant treatment (NAT) is important for optimal treatment selection. Nonetheless, determining the operative eligibility of patients with a modest radiologic response remains controversial. This study aimed to assess the prognostic significance of biologic factors for patients showing a modest radiologic response to NAT and investigate the tumor markers (TMs), CA19-9 alone, DUPAN-II alone, and their combination, to create an index that combines these sialyl-Lewis antigen-related TMs associated with treatment outcomes. METHODS This study enrolled patients deemed to have a "stable disease" by RECIST classification with slight progression (tumor size increase rate, ≤20%) as their radiologic response after NAT. A sialyl-Lewis-related index (sLe index), calculated by adding one fourth of the serum DUPAN-II value to the CA19-9 value, was created. The prognostic significances of CA19-9, DUPAN-II, and the sLe index were assessed in relation to postoperative outcomes. RESULTS An sLe index lower than the cutoff value (45.25) was significantly associated with favorable disease-free survival. Moreover, the post-NAT sLe index had a higher area under the curve value for recurrence within 24 months than the post-NAT levels of CA19-9 or DUPAN-II alone. Multivariable analysis showed that a post-NAT sLe index higher than 45.25 was the single independent predictive factor for recurrence within 24 months. CONCLUSIONS Additional evaluation of biologic factors can potentially enhance patient selection, particularly for patients showing a limited radiologic response to NAT. The authors' index is a simple indicator for the biologic evaluation of multiple combined sialyl-Lewis antigen-related TMs and may offer a better predictive significance.

Abstract
In recent years, the concept of spread through air spaces (STAS) has been discussed as an adverse prognostic factor for lung cancer. The aim of our study is to clarify the prognostic role of STAS in relation to the main recognized prognostic factors in a retrospective cohort of 330 European patients who underwent stages I to III lung adenocarcinoma resection. On univariate analysis, the presence of STAS was related to progression-free survival (PFS; hazard ratio [HR]: 1.48; 95% CI: 1.02-2.19; P = 0.038) and overall survival (OS; HR: 1.61; 95% CI: 1.03-2.52; P = 0.50). On multivariate analysis, STAS was related to PFS (HR: 1.51; 95% CI: 1.00-2.17; P = 0.050) and to OS (HR: 1.67; 95% CI: 1.00-2.81; P = 0.050). We showed that the presence of STAS was associated with lower PFS, equivalent to the next pathologic T stage, especially the median PFS of T3 stages without STAS was at 62.8 months while the median PFS of T3 stages with STAS was at 15.7 months, closer to the median PFS of 17.4 months in T4 stages. To conclude, STAS is an independent prognostic factor of PFS in this European cohort and is close to significance for OS. We suggest that the presence of STAS might lead to an upstaging of lung adenocarcinoma.

Abstract
PURPOSE Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PADC) still has nowadays a very impaired long-term survival. Most studies are focused on overall survival; however, local recurrence occurs about up to 50% of cases and seems to be highly related with margin resection status. We aim to analyze the impact of vascular resection margins on local recurrence (LR) and to assess its impact on overall and disease-free survival. METHODS Eighty out of 191 patients who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy in a university hospital between 2006 and 2021 with PDAC diagnosis were analyzed and vascular margin status specifically addressed. Univariate and multivariate were performed. Time to LR was compared by using the Kaplan-Meier method and prognostic factors assessed using Cox regression hazards model. RESULTS LR appeared in 10 (50%) of the overall R1 resections in the venous margin and 9 (60%) in the arterial one. Time to LR was significantly shorter when any margin was overall affected (23.2 vs 44.7 months, p = 0.01) and specifically in the arterial margin involvement (13.7 vs 32.1 months, p = 0.009). Overall R1 resections (HR 2.61, p = 0.013) and a positive arterial margin (HR 2.84, p = 0.012) were associated with local recurrence on univariate analysis, whereas arterial positive margin remained significant on multivariate analysis (HR 2.70, p = 0.031). CONCLUSIONS Arterial margin invasion is correlated in our cohort with local recurrence. Given the limited ability to modify this margin intraoperatively, preoperative therapies should be considered to improve local margin clearance.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The Da Vinci Robot is the most advanced micro-control system in endoscopic surgical instruments and has gained a lot of valuable experience today. However, the technical feasibility and oncological safety of the robot over open surgery are still uncertain. This work is to systematically evaluate the efficacy of the unilateral axillary approach for robotic surgery compared to open surgery for differentiated thyroid carcinoma. METHODS PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science databases were utilized to search for relevant literatures of robotic thyroid surgery using unilateral axillary approach compared to open thyroid surgery, and a meta-analysis was performed using RevMan software version 5.3. Statistical analysis was performed through Mantle-Haenszel and inverse variance methods. RESULTS Twelve studies with a total of 2660 patients were included in the meta-analysis. The results showed that compared with the open group, the robotic group had a longer total thyroidectomy time, shorter hospital stay, less intraoperative bleeding, more postoperative drainage, fewer retrieved central lymph nodes, and higher cosmetic satisfaction (all P < 0.05). In contrast, temporary and permanent laryngeal recurrent nerve injury, temporary and permanent hypoparathyroidism or hypocalcemia, brachial plexus nerve injury, number of retrieved central lymph nodes, number of retrieved lymph nodes in the lateral cervical region, number of lymph node metastases in the lateral cervical region, hematoma, seroma, lymphatic leak, stimulated thyroglobulin (sTg) and unstimulated thyroglobulin (uTg), and the number and recurrence rate of patients with sTg <1ng/ml were not statistically different between the two groups (P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The unilateral axillary approach for robotic thyroid surgery may achieve outcomes similar to those of open surgery. Further validation is required in a prospective randomized controlled trial.

Abstract
A female patient in her 50s presented with abdominal pain, nausea and jaundice. She had a history of prior Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and her body mass index was 52.5 kg/m2 Biochemical testing revealed a total bilirubin level of 14.3 mg/dL (normal<1.2 mg/dL) and carbohydrate antigen 19-9 of 38.3 units/mL (normal<36.0 units/mL). CT demonstrated a 3.2 cm pancreatic head mass, biliary and pancreatic duct dilation and cystic replacement of the pancreas. The findings were consistent with a diagnosis of mixed-type intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) with invasive malignancy. The patient's Roux-en-Y anatomy precluded endoscopic biopsy, and she underwent upfront resection with diagnostic laparoscopy, open total pancreatectomy, splenectomy and remnant gastrectomy with reconstruction. Pathology confirmed T2N1 pancreatic adenocarcinoma, 1/29 lymph nodes positive and diffuse IPMN. She completed adjuvant chemotherapy. IPMNs have malignant potential and upfront surgical resection should be considered without biopsy in the appropriate clinical setting.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the role of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) before robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) for patients with variant histology (VH) muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). METHODS Retrospective review of 988 patients who underwent RARC (2004-2023) for MIBC. Primary outcomes included the utilization of NAC among this cohort of patients, frequency of downstaging, and discordance between preoperative and final pathology in terms of the presence of VH. Secondary outcomes included disease-specific (DSS), recurrence-free (RFS), and overall survival (OS). RESULTS A total of 349 (35%) had VH on transurethral resection or at RARC. The 4 most common VH subgroups were squamous (n = 94), adenocarcinoma (n = 64), micropapillary (n = 34), and sarcomatoid (n = 21). There was no difference in OS (log-rank: P = 0.43 for adenocarcinoma, P = 0.12 for micropapillary, P = 0.55 for sarcomatoid, P = 0.29 for squamous), RFS (log-rank: P = 0.25 for adenocarcinoma, P = 0.35 for micropapillary, P = 0.83 for sarcomatoid, P = 0.79 for squamous), or DSS (log-rank P = 0.91 for adenocarcinoma, P = 0.15 for micropapillary, 0.28 for sarcomatoid, P = 0.92 for squamous) among any of the VH based on receipt of NAC. Patients with squamous histology who received NAC were more likely to be downstaged on final pathology compared to those who did not (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION Our data showed no significant difference in OS, RFS, or DSS for patients with VH MIBC cancer who received NAC before RARC. Patients with the squamous variant who received NAC had more pathologic downstaging compared to those who did not. The role of NAC among patients with VH is yet to be defined. Results were limited by small number in each individual group and lack of exact proportion of VH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adjuvant chemotherapy (CT) constitutes the primary approach for treating resectable advanced gastric cancer (GC). However, the effectiveness of postoperative CT can differ across various patient groups. This retrospective study aimed to examine how variances in clinical and pathologic factors affect postoperative CT. METHODS This study enrolled 2060 patients with GC who underwent curative gastrectomy at Zhejiang Cancer Hospital between January 2008 and December 2017, with 1277 receiving postoperative CT. This study used Kaplan-Meier to determine the effect of clinical and pathology factors on CT benefits. In addition, univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were used to identify independent prognosis risk factors. RESULTS Both univariate and multivariate analyses demonstrated that the absence of postoperative CT is an independent factor associated with a poor prognosis in patients with GC. The Kaplan-Meier univariate analysis revealed that specific subgroups, including males, those with a normal body mass index (BMI), the elderly, individuals with gastric adenocarcinoma, cases of nerve invasion by the tumor, vascular invasion by the tumor, tumor size ≥ 5 cm, and Tumor, Node, Metastasis (TNM) stage III, exhibited improved treatment outcomes with the administration of postoperative CT. The creation of nomograms using Cox regression and the rms package holds significant clinical relevance. CONCLUSION Postoperative CT is advantageous for prolonging the survival of advanced patients undergoing D2 gastrectomy, particularly in male patients, the elderly, individuals with a normal BMI score, those diagnosed with gastric adenocarcinoma, cases, in which the tumor invades nerves or blood vessels, patients with a tumor size of ≥5 cm, and those with a TNM stage of III, as it results in improved treatment outcomes within these subgroups.

Abstract
Adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (AEG) still represent a certain surgical challenge. In contrary to the trend of thoracoabdominal surgery for AEG I and AEG II cancer, the proximal gastrectomy is regaining popularity through new reconstruction methods such as the double tract reconstruction. Proximal gastrectomy followed by double tract reconstruction represents an alternative for the thoracoabdominal approach for suitable AEG II cancer and an alternative to the total gastrectomy for AEG III cancers. Latest studies suggest a functional benefit of proximal gastrectomy and double tract reconstruction in comparison to total gastrectomy. The accurate indication for proximal gastrectomy for locally advanced cancers has to be established in the near future as well as the influence of the size of the remnant stomach on the outcome, as Asian techniques for early lesions sometimes significantly differ from European. The following article reflects the present evidence on proximal gastrectomy and double tract reconstruction as well as technical aspects in the context of cancer of the esophagogastric junction.

Abstract
PURPOSE To elucidate the clinicopathological features and prognostic factors of minimal deviation adenocarcinoma (MDA) of the uterine cervix, a clinically rare but highly invasive disease. METHODS This was a retrospective, observational, real-world study of 43 patients with pathologically confirmed MDA at the Obstetrics and Gynaecology Hospital of Fudan University between November 2010 and November 2021. Baseline clinicopathological data were collected and reviewed. Prognostic factors for progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were investigated by univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards analyses. RESULTS Chief complaints included irregular vaginal discharge and/or bleeding (74.4%). Preoperative diagnosis was difficult, the detection rate was low (36.8%), all cases showed endophytic lesions, and 88.4% had deep stromal invasion, with biologically aggressive characteristics. The ovarian metastasis rate was high (16.3%, 7/43). The median maximum diameter of the tumour (MDOT) was 4.3 cm (range, 0.5-8.0 cm). MDOT was significantly associated with OS (P = 0.009), and the optimal cut-off value to define bulky MDA was 5.5 cm (P < 0.0001, χ= 21.161) using X-tile software. Independent prognostic factors included MDOT (HR = 10.095, P = 0.001) and ovarian metastasis (HR = 5.888, P = 0.008) for OS and MDOT (HR = 3.944, P = 0.028), ovarian metastasis (HR = 9.285, P = 0.001), and deep infiltration (HR = 3.627, P = 0.048) for PFS. CONCLUSION Endophytic lesion development and ovarian metastasis are likely in MDA. A bulky tumour and ovarian metastasis indicate a worse prognosis. Given the special biological features of MDA, it is more appropriate to use 5.5 cm as the threshold for defining a bulky tumour than it is to use 4 cm. Ovary removal should be given higher priority to improve prognosis.

Abstract
Objective Endoscopic papillectomy(EP) is a minimally invasive treatment for early ampullary tumors. However, the optimal method is unclear. The aim of this study is to explore the efficacy and safety of traction-assisted EP treatments for ampullary early tumors.Methods We retrospective analyzed the patients with ampullary adenoma or early adenocarcinoma underwent endoscopic papillectomy between January 2010 and August 2023, including patient characteristics, lesion size, papilla type, pathological diagnosis and lesion surrounding conditions, en-bloc resection rate, complete resection rate, procedure time, complications, recurrences.Results During the study period, a total of 106 patients with ampullary adenoma or early adenocarcinoma underwent EP. The number of patients in traction group (clip combined with dental floss traction, CDT-EP) and non-traction group (hot snare papillectomy, HSP or endoscopic mucosal resection, EMR) were 45 and 61 respectively. The traction group has a higher en-bloc resection rate and complete resection rate than the non-traction group (92.86% vs. 68.85%, p = 0.003; 90.48% vs. 60.66%, p = 0.001), and the procedure time is slightly shorter[(1.57 ± 1.93)min vs. (1.98 ± 1.76)min, p = 0.039]. The complications and recurrence in the traction group were lower than those in the non-traction group (7.14% vs. 19.72%, p = 0.076; 7.14% vs. 11.78%, p = 0.466), and all complications were successfully treated by endoscopy or conservative medical treatment. There was no statistical difference between the two groups in terms of patient characteristics, papilla type, pathological diagnosis and lesion surrounding conditions (p > 0.050), but there were differences in lesion size[(13 ± 1.09)mm vs. (11 ± 1.65)mm, p = 0.002]. The recurrence rate of the traction group is lower than that of the non-traction group, but the difference is not significant(7.14% vs. 13.11%, p = 0.335), and the non-traction group mainly has early recurrence. Further analysis shows that the size of the lesion, whether en-bloc resection or not, and the method of resection as independent risk factors for incomplete resection (OR = 1.732, p = 0.031; OR = 3.716, p = 0.049; OR = 2.120, p = 0.027).Conclusions CDT- EP, HSP and EMR are all suitable methods for the treatment of ampullary adenoma or early adenocarcinoma. Assisted traction technology can reduce the operation difficulty of large and difficult to expose lesions, thereby improving the efficacy and safety of EP.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to clarify the risk factors for postoperative recurrence in patients with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated stage I lung adenocarcinoma, using EGFR wild-type adenocarcinoma as a comparator, to select optimal candidates for adjuvant therapy with EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI). METHODS Data of patients with pathologic stage I EGFR-mutated (n = 713) and wild-type (n = 673) adenocarcinoma who did not receive adjuvant therapy were retrospectively analyzed. The cumulative incidence of recurrence (CIR) was estimated using Gray's method, and multivariable Fine-Gray competing risk models identified independent risk factors associated with recurrence. RESULTS The CIR did not differ significantly between patients with EGFR-mutated and wild-type adenocarcinoma (P = .32). Multivariable analysis revealed that greater size (cm) of invasive tumor (hazard ratio 1.539; 95% CI, 1.077-2.201), lymphovascular invasion (hazard ratio 5.180; 95% CI, 2.208-12.15), pleural invasion (hazard ratio 3.388; 95% CI, 1.524-7.533), and high-grade histologic subtype (hazard ratio 4.295; 95% CI, 1.539-11.99) were independent risk factors for recurrence in patients with EGFR-mutated adenocarcinoma. The 5-year CIR was significantly higher among patients with these factors (tumor size greater than 2 cm, 15.9%; lymphovascular invasion, 26.9%; pleural invasion, 39.3%; and high-grade subtype, 44.4%) than among patients without them (4.4%, 2.2%, 3.9%, and 5%, respectively; P < .001). For patients with EGFR wild-type adenocarcinoma, independent risk factors for recurrence were invasive tumor size, lymphovascular invasion, and pleural invasion, but not histologic subtypes. CONCLUSIONS Even for patients with EGFR-mutated stage I lung adenocarcinoma, recurrence risk is stratified. Adjuvant therapy may be considered if they have high-risk factors for recurrence.

Abstract
PURPOSE Thyroglobulin assay is important to assess the residual or recurrence of differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC). Patients with positive serum thyroglobulin levels after radioactive iodine (RAI) adjuvant therapy could achieve long-term recurrence-free survival (RFS). The patient's prognosis could not be confidently estimated based solely on the evaluation of thyroglobulin levels. We investigated the recurrence rate and RFS of patients who received adjuvant RAI therapy after surgery for DTC to clarify the relationship between changes in pre- and post-therapy serum thyroglobulin levels and RFS. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients who underwent adjuvant RAI therapy between May 2007 and March 2021 were included in this study, whereas those with positive anti-thyroglobulin antibodies, distant metastases, or gross residual tumors were excluded. The change in pre- and post-treatment serum thyroglobulin levels under thyroid-stimulating hormone stimulation was calculated and classified as follows: group A, thyroglobulin levels decreased by ˃10%; group B, thyroglobulin levels within a range of 10% or less; and group C, thyroglobulin levels increased by ˃10%. RFS outcomes were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method. Univariate analysis was performed using the log-rank test, and multivariate analysis was performed using the Cox proportional hazard model. RESULTS A total of 74 patients were included. Relapse was seen in 13 of 46 patients in group A, 9 of 15 in group B, and 10 of 13 in group C. Median RFS was 129.00 (95% confidence interval CI 77.79-180.21), 113.00 (95% CI 86.83-139.17), and 33 months (95% CI 6.026-59.974) in groups A, B, and C, respectively. Patients in group C exhibited significantly shorter RFS than those in groups A and B (P = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Changes in thyroglobulin levels pre- and post-therapy were associated with RFS. Patients with decreased post-therapy thyroglobulin levels had a favorable prognosis, even if their thyroglobulin levels were positive after RAI therapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE Body composition (BC) may play a role in outcome prognostication in patients with gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma (GEAC). Artificial intelligence provides new possibilities to opportunistically quantify BC from computed tomography (CT) scans. We developed a deep learning (DL) model for fully automatic BC quantification on routine staging CTs and determined its prognostic role in a clinical cohort of patients with GEAC. MATERIALS AND METHODS We developed and tested a DL model to quantify BC measures defined as subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissue (VAT) and skeletal muscle on routine CT and investigated their prognostic value in a cohort of patients with GEAC using baseline, 3-6-month, and 6-12-month postoperative CTs. Primary outcome was all-cause mortality, and secondary outcome was disease-free survival (DFS). Cox regression assessed the association between (1) BC at baseline and mortality and (2) the decrease in BC between baseline and follow-up scans and mortality/DFS. RESULTS Model performance was high with Dice coefficients ≥0.94 ± 0.06. Among 299 patients with GEAC (age 63.0 ± 10.7 years; 19.4% female), 140 deaths (47%) occurred over a median follow-up of 31.3 months. At baseline, no BC measure was associated with DFS. Only a substantial decrease in VAT >70% after a 6- to 12-month follow-up was associated with mortality (hazard ratio [HR], 1.99 [95% CI, 1.18 to 3.34]; P = .009) and DFS (HR, 1.73 [95% CI, 1.01 to 2.95]; P = .045) independent of age, sex, BMI, Union for International Cancer Control stage, histologic grading, resection status, neoadjuvant therapy, and time between surgery and follow-up CT. CONCLUSION DL enables opportunistic estimation of BC from routine staging CT to quantify prognostic information. In patients with GEAC, only a substantial decrease of VAT 6-12 months postsurgery was an independent predictor for DFS beyond traditional risk factors, which may help to identify individuals at high risk who go otherwise unnoticed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To date, no large population-based studies have compared complications and short-term outcomes between neoadjuvant chemotherapy and upfront surgery in gastric cancer. More nationwide studies with standardized reporting on complications are needed to enable international comparison between studies. This study aimed to compare postoperative complications between neoadjuvant therapy and upfront surgery after gastrectomy for gastric adenocarcinoma in a population-based setting. METHODS This population-based study based on the Finnish National Esophago-Gastric Cancer Cohort included all patients 18 years of age or older undergoing gastrectomy for gastric adenocarcinoma in Finland during 2005-2016. Logistic regression provided odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs), both crude and adjusted for key confounders. Different types of complications were graded based on the Esophagectomy Complications Consensus Group definitions, and major complications were assessed by the Clavien-Dindo scale. RESULTS This study analyzed 769 patients. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy did not increase major postoperative complications after gastrectomy for gastric cancer compared with upfront surgery (OR, 1.12; 95% CI 0.81-1.56). Furthermore, it did not increase pneumonia, anastomotic complications, wound complications, or other complications. CONCLUSIONS Neoadjuvant therapy is not associated with increased postoperative complications, reoperations, or short-term mortality compared with upfront surgery in gastric adenocarcinoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The effect of radiologic splenic vessels involvement (RSVI) on the survival of patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAC) located in the body and tail of the pancreas is controversial, and its influence on postoperative morbidity after distal pancreatectomy (DP) is unknown. This study aimed to determine the influence of RSVI on postoperative complications, overall survival (OS), and disease-free survival (DFS) in patients undergoing DP for PAC. METHODS A multicenter retrospective study of DP was conducted at 7 hepatopancreatobiliary units between January 2008 and December 2018. Patients were classified according to the presence of RSVI. A Clavien-Dindo grade of >II was considered to represent a major complication. RESULTS A total of 95 patients were included in the analysis. Moreover, 47 patients had vascular infiltration: 4 had arterial involvement, 10 had venous involvement, and 33 had both arterial and venous involvements. The rates of major complications were 20.8% in patients without RSVI, 40.0% in those with venous RSVI, 25.0% in those with arterial RSVI, and 30.3% in those with both arterial and venous RSVIs (P = .024). The DFS rates at 3 years were 56% in the group without RSVI, 50% in the group with arterial RSVI, and 16% in the group with both arterial and venous RSVIs (P = .003). The OS rates at 3 years were 66% in the group without RSVI, 50% in the group with arterial RSVI, and 29% in the group with both arterial and venous RSVIs (P < .0001). CONCLUSION RSVI increased the major complication rates after DP and reduced the OS and DFS. Therefore, it may be a useful prognostic marker in patients with PAC scheduled to undergo DP and may help to select patients likely to benefit from neoadjuvant treatment.

Abstract
It is rare to find a small bowel tumour presenting as intestinal obstruction. This type of cancer is an extremely unusual condition often misdiagnosed until late stages. We report the case of a patient with persistent vomiting secondary to an obstructing jejunal adenocarcinoma not related to intestinal bowel disease. After resection and chemotherapy treatment a huge mass was detected in the left ovary. The anatomopathological findings confirmed a metastatic cancer consequent to the jejunal adenocarcinoma previously resected. This case illustrates a successful outcome of a jejunal adenocarcinoma with very poor prognosis after a extremely unusual ovarian metastasis. It is highly important to suspect other causes than intestinal bowel disease when doing a differential diagnosis in a young patient presenting with clinical symptoms of intestinal obstruction.

Abstract
Multiport robots are now widely used for total gastrectomy for gastric cancer, while there is almost a void of research on whether single-port (SP) robots can be used for total gastrectomy. Here, we report a case of a 75-year-old female patient who was diagnosed with gastric cardia adenocarcinoma by gastroscopy and underwent total gastrectomy assisted by the SHURUI SP robot. We successfully accomplished total gastrectomy and D2 lymph node dissection using the novel SP robotic platform. The patient was discharged from the hospital successfully with no complications during or after the surgery. Pathologic diagnosis showed adenocarcinoma of the gastric mucosa with partial signet-ring cell carcinoma, and no metastasis was found in the 29 cleared lymph nodes. The use of the SHURUI SP robot for total gastrectomy in treating gastric cancer is both technically feasible and safe.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study is performed to investigate the imaging characteristics of the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer grade 3 invasive adenocarcinoma (IAC) on PET/CT and the value of PET/CT for preoperative predicting this tumor. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively enrolled patients with IAC from August 2015 to September 2022. The clinical characteristics, serum tumor markers, and PET/CT features were analyzed. T test, Mann-Whitney U test, χ 2 test, Logistic regression analysis, and receiver operating characteristic analysis were used to predict grade 3 tumor and evaluate the prediction effectiveness. RESULTS Grade 3 tumors had a significantly higher maximum standardized uptake value (SUV max ) and consolidation-tumor-ratio (CTR) ( P < 0.001), while Grade 1 - 2 tumors were prone to present with air bronchogram sign or vacuole sign ( P < 0.001). A stepwise logistic regression analysis revealed that smoking history, CEA, SUV max , air bronchogram sign or vacuole sign and CTR were useful predictors for Grade 3 tumors. The established prediction model based on the above 5 parameters generated a high AUC (0.869) and negative predictive value (0.919), respectively. CONCLUSION Our study demonstrates that grade 3 IAC has a unique PET/CT imaging feature. The prognostication model established with smoking history, CEA, SUV max , air bronchogram sign or vacuole sign and CTR can effectively predict grade 3 tumors before the operation.

Abstract
Crohn's disease patients frequently develop perianal fistulas during their life. They are also at higher risk to develop cancers. Rarely, those cancers appear within a prior chronic fistula. The main types are adenocarcinoma mostly mucinous and squamous cell carcinoma. They are generally discovered at an advanced stage with a poor prognosis because symptoms are generally the same as those of the fistula itself. Regular follow-up of chronic fistulas is then important for an early diagnosis as well as histological analysis of the fistula during surgery. There is no consensus on the ideal treatment but abdominoperineal resection is the corner stone with or without neo or adjuvant chemo-radiotherapy. This paper presents a rare case of mucinous adenocarcinoma in a chronic perianal fistula in a Crohn's disease female and provides a review of the literature.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The relationship between different surgical treatments and quality of life remains uncertain for differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC). The aim of this study is to compare the gasless endoscopic thyroidectomy trans-axillary approach (ET) and traditional open thyroidectomy (OT) through a prospective cohort study focusing on the rate of the efficacy, and quality of life (QoL). METHODS This prospective observational longitudinal cohort study enrolled 134 female patients diagnosed with DTC from December 01/2021 to December 31/2022. Multiple scales were applicated to evaluate the differences in quality of life, effectiveness, safety, etc. between the two groups during preoperative and postoperative follow-up periods, including the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30, version 3.0 (QOL-C30), Symptom Checklist (SCL-90), Scar Cosmesis Assessment and Rating (SCAR-Q), voice impairment score (VIS), swallowing impairment score (SIS), and neck impairment score (NIS). RESULTS Among them, 68 accepted ET and 66 patients underwent OT. To enhance comparability between the two groups, the patients enrolled in this study are female. Compared with the OT group, the ET group performed significantly better postoperative physical quality of life, including sound (p = 0.036), swallowing (p < 0.001), and neck function (p = 0.010). The ET group was also associated with significantly better cosmetic satisfaction (p < 0.001), and relatively faster recovery in psychological and emotional situation. CONCLUSIONS Gasless endoscopic thyroidectomy through an axillary approach leads to good cosmetic and psychological effects, improves postoperative QoL, and could be recommended for rapid postoperative recovery and involvement in daily and social activities.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The relationship among obesity, bariatric surgery, and esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) is complex, given that some bariatric procedures are thought to be associated with increased incidence of reflux and Barrett's esophagus. Previous bariatric surgery may complicate the use of the stomach as a conduit for esophagectomy. In this study, we presented our experience with patients who developed EAC after bariatric surgery and described the challenges encountered and the techniques used. METHODS We conducted a retrospective review of our institutional database to identify all patients at our institution who were treated for EAC after previously undergoing bariatric surgery. RESULTS In total, 19 patients underwent resection with curative intent for EAC after bariatric surgery, including 10 patients who underwent sleeve gastrectomy. The median age at diagnosis of EAC was 63 years; patients who underwent sleeve gastrectomy were younger (median age, 56 years). The median time from bariatric surgery to EAC was 7 years. Most patients had a body mass index (BMI) score of >30 kg/m2 at the time of diagnosis of EAC; approximately 40% had class III obesity (BMI score > 40 kg/m2). Six patients (32%) had known Barrett's esophagus before undergoing a reflux-increasing bariatric procedure. Sleeve gastrectomy patients underwent esophagectomy with gastric conduit, colonic interposition, or esophagojejunostomy. Only 1 patient had an anastomotic leak (after esophagojejunostomy). CONCLUSION Endoscopy should be required both before (for treatment selection) and after all bariatric surgical procedures. Resection of EAC after bariatric surgery requires a highly individualized approach but is safe and feasible.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sarcopenic obesity is associated with gastrointestinal cancer prognosis through systemic inflammation. However, in patients with adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (AEG), the relationship between the inflammation-based prognostic score (IBPS), muscle loss, visceral fat mass, and prognosis has not been sufficiently evaluated. We investigated the prognostic value of the preoperative IBPS and the visceral fat area ratio to the psoas muscle area (V/P ratio) in patients with AEG undergoing surgery. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 92 patients with AEG who underwent surgery. The prognostic value of the preoperative neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio, systemic inflammation response index, C-reactive protein-to-albumin ratio, prognostic nutritional index, modified Glasgow Prognostic Score, and V/P ratio at the third lumbar vertebra was investigated using univariate and multivariate survival analyses. RESULTS Multivariate analysis revealed that a high pathological stage (p = 0.0065), high PLR (p = 0.0421), and low V/P ratio (p = 0.0053) were independent prognostic factors for poor overall survival (OS). When restricted to patients with body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25 kg/m2, a high V/P ratio was a poor prognostic factor (p = 0.0463) for OS. Conversely, when restricted to patients with BMI < 25 kg/m2, a low V/P ratio was a poor prognostic factor (p = 0.0021) for OS. CONCLUSIONS Both PLR and V/P ratios may be useful prognostic biomarkers in surgical cases of AEG. V/P ratio and BMI may provide an accurate understanding of the muscle and fat mass's precise nature and may help predict AEG prognosis.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The Clavien-Dindo Classification (CDC) has been traditionally used for assessing postoperative complications. Recently, the Comprehensive Complication Index (CCI) has been introduced as a new tool. However, its prognostic significance in Gastric Cardia Adenocarcinoma (GCA) is yet to be determined. METHODS The CCI and CDC of 203 patients who underwent radical surgery for GCA at Jinling Hospital from 2016 to 2023 were evaluated. Primary outcome variables included Hospital Length of Stay, duration of intensive care unit stay postoperatively, time to return to normal activities, and total hospitalization cost. The area under the curve was used to measure the correlation strength of the CCI and CDC for these outcomes. RESULTS The CCI demonstrated superior association strength, indicated by higher area under the curve values for all primary outcome variables compared to the CDC: Hospital Length of Stay (0.956 versus 0.910), intensive care unit stay duration (0.969 versus 0.954), time to return to normal activities (0.983 versus 0.962), and total hospitalization cost (0.925 versus 0.911). CONCLUSIONS The CCI showed a stronger positive association than the CDC with short-term postoperative complications in GCA. It has potential implications for improving postoperative patient management.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The rarity yet high malignancy of gallbladder adenocarcinoma (GBA) endows it with a distinctive nature. Radical resection remains the foremost therapeutic approach for GBA, while the impact of early recurrence and metastasis on patient prognosis necessitates the utilization of adjuvant chemotherapy (AC). Despite numerous previous studies on this topic, a consensus regarding the authentic efficacy of AC has yet to be reached. METHODS We conducted an updated retrospective cohort analysis utilizing data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database spanning from 2010 to 2020 to explore the association between AC and survival outcomes in patients with resected GBA. RESULTS Our study included 2782 patients from the SEER database, with further evaluation of 843 patients in each cohort following meticulous execution of a 1:1 propensity score matching. Remarkably, the AC cohort exhibited a significant survival advantage when juxtaposed against the non-AC cohort. Multivariable Cox regression analysis identified age at diagnosis, year at diagnosis, grade, AJCC T stage, AJCC N stage as well as AC as independent prognostic factors. Furthermore, our findings unveiled that poor/undifferentiated tumor histology, pathological T2 or higher category and pathological N1 category were significantly associated with improved survival when treated with AC while simultaneously observing improved survival across all age categories. CONCLUSION These results provide additional evidence supporting the survival benefits of AC and offer guidance for personalized therapy in patients with resected GBA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastro-jejunostomy (GJ) after pylorus-resecting pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) is most commonly performed in a hand-sewn fashion. Intestinal stapled anastomosis are reported to be as effective as hand-sewn in terms of patency and risk of leakage in other indications. However, the use of a stapled gastro-jejunostomy hasn't been fully assessed in PD. The aim of the present technical report is to evaluate functional outcomes of stapled GJ during PD, its associated effect on operative time and related complications. METHODS The institutional database for pancreatic duct adenocarcinoma (PDAC) was retrospectically reviewed. Pylorus resecting open PD without vascular or multivisceral resections were considered for the analysis. The incidence of clinically significant delayed gastric emptying (DGE from the International Stufy Group of Pancreatic Surgery (ISGPS) grade B and C), other complications, operative time and overall hospitalization were evaluated. RESULTS Over a 10-years study period, 1182 PD for adenocarcinoma were performed and recorded in the database. 243 open Whipple procedures with no vascular and with no associated multivisceral resections were available and constituted the study population. Hand-sewn (HS) anastomosis was performed in 175 (72 %), stapled anastomosis (St) in 68 (28 %). No significant differences in baseline characteristics were observed between the two groups, with the exception of a higher rate of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in the HS group (74 % St vs. 86 % HS, p = 0.025). Intraoperatively, a significantly reduced median operative time in the St group was observed (248 min St vs. 370 mins HS, p < 0.001). Post-operatively, rates of clinically relevant delayed gastric emptying (7 % St vs. 14 % HS, p = 0.140), clinically relevant pancreatic fistula (10 % St, 15 % HS, p = 0.300), median length of stay (7 days for each group, p = 0.289), post-pancreatectomy hemorrhage (4.4 % St vs. 6.3 % HS, p = 0.415) and complication rate (22 % St vs. 34 % HS, p = 0.064) were similar between groups. However, readmission rates were significantly lower after St GJ (13.2 % St vs 29.7 % HS, p = 0.008). CONCLUSION Our results indicate that a stapled GJ anastomosis during a standard Whipple procedure is non-inferior to a hand-sewn GJ, with a comparable rate of DGE and no increase of gastrointestinal related long term complications. Further, a stapled GJ anastomosis might be associated with reduced operative times.

Abstract
Endoscopy is the gold standard for diagnosis of oesophageal cancer and its precursor lesions. Besides this, endoscopy treatment of these precursor lesions and early oesophageal cancer has been well evaluated and established. This includes dysplastic lesions associated with Barrett's oesophagus and early adenocarcinoma, as well as early squamous cell cancer of the oesophagus. The role of endoscopy for diagnosis and treatment of these lesions is summarised.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Extramammary Paget disease is a relatively rare and less malignant intraepithelial adenocarcinoma. t is found in areas with abundant distribution of apocrine sweat glands such as the external genitalia, external genitalia, and perianal area, with fewer armpits. The disease progresses slowly and is prone to misdiagnosis in clinical practice. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed a female patient. She had a left axillary mass for more than 2 years. Recently, the mass increased and the surface skin was ulcerated. Then she went to Jiangxi Provincial Dermatology Hospital for left axillary lesion resection, and the postoperative pathology showed Paget disease outside the breast. For further diagnosis and treatment, she came to our hospital. We diagnosed a tumor with uncertain or unknown dynamics in the left axillary breast. Under general anesthesia, left subaxillary mass resection, freezing and left breast cancer breast conserving surgery was performed. RESULTS The postoperative pathology of the left axillary mass combined with morphological and immunohistochemical results was consistent with Paget disease. Postoperative immunohistochemistry showed estrogen receptor (+, 20%), progesterone receptor (-), human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (3+), Ki-67 (30%), cytokine7 (+), and p63 (-). Following up for 22 months, there has been no local recurrence, no swelling of the right axillary lymph node, no distant metastasis found on follow-up, and no complications such as upper limb lymphedema, upper limb sensory abnormalities, or motor disorders have been observed. CONCLUSION Paget disease outside the axillary breast is relatively rare, and surgical resection is the best choice. The prognosis is good, and the recurrence rate is low.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the superiority of preoperative ultrasound-guided titanium clip and nanocarbon dual localization over traditional methods for determining the surgical approach and guiding resection of Siewert type II adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (AEG). METHOD This study included 66 patients with Siewert type II AEG who were treated at the PLA Joint Logistics Support Force 900th Hospital between September 1, 2021, and September 1, 2023. They were randomly divided into an experimental group (n = 33), in which resection was guided by the dual localization technique, and the routine group (n = 33), in which the localization technique was not used. Surgical approach predictions, proximal esophageal resection lengths, pathological features, and the occurrence of complications were compared between the groups. RESULT The use of the dual localization technique resulted in higher accuracy in predicting the surgical approach (96.8% vs. 75.9%, P = 0.02) and shorter proximal esophageal resection lengths (2.39 ± 0.28 cm vs. 2.86 ± 0.39 cm, P < 0.001) in the experimental group as compared to the routine group, while there was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative complications (22.59% vs. 24.14%, P = 0.88). CONCLUSION Preoperative dual localization with titanium clips and carbon nanoparticles is significantly superior to traditional methods and can reliably delineate the actual infiltration boundaries of Siewert type II AEG, guide the surgical approach, and avoid excessive esophageal resection.

Abstract
PURPOSE GemPred, a transcriptomic signature predictive of the efficacy of adjuvant gemcitabine (GEM), was developed from cell lines and organoids and validated retrospectively. The phase III PRODIGE-24/CCTG PA6 trial has demonstrated the superiority of modified folinic acid, fluorouracil, irinotecan, and oxaliplatin (mFOLFIRINOX) over GEM as adjuvant therapy in patients with resected pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma at the expense of higher toxicity. We evaluated the potential predictive value of GemPred in this population. PATIENTS AND METHODS Routine formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded surgical specimens of 350 patients were retrieved for RNA sequencing and GemPred prediction (167 in the GEM arm and 183 in the mFOLFIRINOX [mFFX] arm). Survival analyses were stratified by resection margins, lymph node status, and cancer antigen 19-9 level. RESULTS Eighty-nine patients' tumors (25.5%) were GemPred+ and were thus predicted to be gemcitabine-sensitive. In the GEM arm, GemPred+ patients (n = 50, 30%) had a significantly longer disease-free survival (DFS) than GemPred- patients (n = 117, 70%; median 27.3 v 10.2 months, hazard ratio [HR], 0.43 [95% CI, 0.29 to 0.65]; P < .001) and cancer-specific survival (CSS; median 68.4 v 28.6 months, HR, 0.42 [95% CI, 0.27 to 0.66]; P < .001). GemPred had no prognostic value in the mFFX arm. DFS and CSS were similar in GemPred+ patients who received adjuvant GEM and mFFX (median 27.3 v 24.0 months, and 68.4 v 51.4 months, respectively). The statistical interaction between GEM and GemPred+ status was significant for DFS (P = .008) and CSS (P = .004). GemPred+ patients had significantly more adverse events of grade ≥3 in the mFFX arm (76%) compared with those in the GEM arm (40%; P = .001). CONCLUSION This ancillary study of a phase III randomized trial demonstrates that among the quarter of patients with a GemPred-positive transcriptomic signature, survival was comparable with that of mFOLFIRINOX, whereas those receiving adjuvant gemcitabine had fewer adverse events.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Duodenal adenocarcinoma is a small percentage of gastrointestinal neoplasms, around 0.5%, and its treatment is based on resection of the tumor, classically by pancreaticoduodenectomy. In recent years, however, segmental resections of duodenal lesions, that do not involve the second portion or the periampullary region, have gained relevance with good surgical and oncological outcomes as well as the benefit of avoiding surgeries that can result in high morbidity and mortality. AIMS To report a case of an elderly female patient with malignant neoplastic lesion in the third and fourth duodenal portion, non-obstructive, submitted to surgical treatment. METHODS The technical option was the resection of the distal duodenum and proximal jejunum with preservation of the pancreas and reconstruction with side-to-side duodenojejunal anastomosis. RESULTS The evolution was satisfactory and the surgical margins were free of neoplasia. CONCLUSIONS Segmental resections of the duodenum are feasible and safe, offering the benefit of preventing complications of pancreaticoduodenectomies.

Abstract
Pancreatic cancer is a highly aggressive malignancy that is characterized by early metastasis, high recurrence, and therapy resistance. Early recurrence after surgery is one of the important reasons affecting the prognosis of pancreatic cancer. This study aimed to establish an accurate preoperative nomogram model for predicting early recurrence (ER) for resectable pancreatic adenocarcinoma. We retrospectively analyzed patients who underwent pancreatectomy for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma between January 2011 and December 2020. The training set consisted of 604 patients, while the validation set included 222 patients. Survival was estimated using Kaplan-Meier curves. The factors influencing early recurrence of resectable pancreatic cancer after surgery were investigated, then the predictive model for early recurrence was established, and subsequently the predictive model was validated based on the data of the validation group. The preoperative risk factors for ER included a Charlson age-comorbidity index ≥ 4 (odds ratio [OR]: 0.628), tumor size > 3.0 cm on computed tomography (OR: 0.628), presence of clinical symptoms (OR: 0.515), carbohydrate antigen 19-9 > 181.3 U/mL (OR 0.396), and carcinoembryonic antigen > 6.01 (OR: 0.440). The area under the curve (AUC) of the predictive model in the training group was 0.711 (95% confidence interval: 0.669-0.752), while it reached 0.730 (95% CI: 0.663-0.797) in the validation group. The predictive model may enable the prediction of the risk of postoperative ER in patients with resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, thereby optimizing preoperative decision-making for effective treatment.

Abstract
Drain-site recurrence following colorectal cancer resection is a rare event and is described in few case reports. The majority of these reports are following minimally invasive surgery. This report describes a case of an isolated drain-site recurrence of primary colorectal cancer in a male patient in his 50s. He previously underwent an open right hemicolectomy and segmental small bowel resection for an obstructing ileocaecal valve adenocarcinoma. This was followed by adjuvant chemotherapy. Two years into surveillance, a redo ileocolic resection was performed for an anastomotic recurrence. While undergoing surveillance imaging, a new deposit was detected at a right-sided surgical drain site. Subsequently, a full thickness en bloc resection was performed. To date, the postoperative course has been uneventful. This case describes a drain-site recurrence from a colorectal primary.

Abstract
BACKGROUND • The ERCP even when done by experienced professionals, fails in 10% of cases. BACKGROUND • Until the development of the EUS-BD, PTBD had a role as a rescue therapy, despite a high rate of adverse events. BACKGROUND • The EUS-BD is safe and has similar efficacy, when compared to PTBD and should be performed immediately after ERCP failure. BACKGROUND • A doctor with skills in both methods (ERCP/EUS) is needed to determine the best EUS-guided therapeutic option.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Accurate diagnostic criteria for tumor invasion are essential for precise pathologic tumor (pT) staging. Recently, the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC) Pathology Committee suggested a new set of criteria for assessing tumor invasion, but the clinical usefulness of the proposed criteria has not been evaluated. METHODS The study included 1295 patients with resected part-solid lung adenocarcinoma from January 2017 to December 2019 at the Samsung Medical Center, Seoul, Korea. The revised pT stage was determined by the extent of the newly measured invasive component using the IASLC criteria. The primary outcome was to compare the performance of the revised pT stage with the original pT stage in predicting recurrence-free survival and proof of invasion status (i.e., recurrence or lymph node metastasis). The secondary outcome was the correlation with radiologic surrogates of tumor invasiveness (consolidation-to-tumor ratio and maximum standardized uptake value) and pathologic risk factors. RESULTS The re-evaluation resulted in a 22% downstaging and 2.5% upstaging of pT, which improved the correlation with radiologic (consolidation-to-tumor ratio and maximum standardized uptake value) and pathologic risk factors. The revised pT staging allowed for more accurate discrimination of recurrence-free survival than the original pT staging (c-index = 0.794 versus 0.717). Moreover, the revised pT staging significantly improved the prediction of recurrence or lymph node metastasis (area under the curve = 0.818 versus 0.741, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS To our knowledge, this is the first study evaluating the clinical significance of the IASLC-proposed criteria for invasion. The proposed IASLC criteria offered better alignment with clinicopathologic risk factors and improved prognostication. Further studies are warranted to assess the impact of the IASLC criteria on treatment decisions and patient outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE This study aims to investigate the impact of sex on outcome measures stratified by histological subtype in patients with resectable gastric cancer (GC). METHODS A post-hoc analysis of the CRITICS-trial, in which patients with resectable GC were treated with perioperative therapy, was performed. Histopathological characteristics and survival were evaluated for males and females stratified for histological subtype (intestinal/diffuse). Additionally, therapy-related toxicity and compliance were compared. RESULTS Data from 781 patients (523 males) were available for analyses. Female sex was associated with a distal tumor localization in intestinal (p = 0.014) and diffuse tumors (p < 0.001), and younger age in diffuse GC (p = 0.035). In diffuse GC, tumor-positive resection margins were also more common in females than males (21% vs. 10%; p = 0.020), specifically at the duodenal margin. During preoperative chemotherapy, severe toxicity occurred in 327 (63%) males and 184 (71%) females (p = 0.015). Notwithstanding this, relative dose intensities were not significantly different between sexes. CONCLUSIONS Positive distal margin rates were higher in females with diffuse GC, predominantly at the duodenal site. Females also experience more toxicity, but this neither impacts dose intensities nor surgical resection rates. Clinicians should be aware of these different surgical outcomes when treating males and females with GC.
