Mural nodules and prevalence of high-grade dysplasia in branch duct intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm of the pancreas undergoing resection
➡️ https://t.co/el5D002fos

In this cohort of mural module within BD-IPMN, we thoroughly examined the location of HGD/IC relative to the mural module, finding that 45% of HGD/IC cases were distant from the mural module
Although mural module is a strong predictor of HGD, our results indicate that malignancy is not always located within or near the mural module
For such patients, local ablation of the mural module or the affected secondary duct offers limited benefit compared to pancreatic resection, especially in those fit for surgery

Days at home (DAH) after surgery as a perioperative outcome: scoping review and recommendations for use in health services #research
➡️ https://t.co/BkIpywgz26

DAH appears to be a robust, valid, and accessible perioperative outcome that captures a holistic measure of the impact of surgery
By incorporating multiple measures of healthcare utilization, DAH is a comprehensive patient-centred metric, with a role in both research and policy
It has been used in descriptive analyses, comparative effectiveness research, and clinical trials
However, there is significant heterogeneity in terminology, definitions, and analysis, as well as inconsistent reporting practices ➡️ These factors impact the interpretability and adoption of DAH as an outcome measure

Cancer survivors are growing in number. In the US, nearly half of survivors have lived 10 or more years after diagnosis, while 19% have lived 20 or more years. The prevalence of long-term survivors is expected to increase through 2040. https://t.co/nzjl6sIFE4 #CancerSurvivorship

🎙 Randomized Trial 🚨: SBRT vs. RFA for Recurrent Small HCC—Is It Time to Rethink Local Treatment? @OncoAlert

🔬 Study Highlights:
📌 Phase III trial, 166 👥 with recurrent HCC (≤5 cm, single lesion).
📌 Randomized to RFA (n=83) or SBRT (n=83)

Key Outcomes:
✅ Local progression-free survival (LPFS):
•2-year LPFS: 92.7% (SBRT)🏆 vs. 75.8% (RFA) (HR: 0.45, p=0.014).

✅ Progression-free survival (PFS):
•Median PFS: 37.6 months (SBRT) vs. 27.6 months (RFA) (p=0.19).👌

✅ Overall survival (OS):
•2-year OS: 97.6% (SBRT) vs. 93.9% (RFA) (p=0.83).👌

✅ Safety: Comparable acute and late adverse events.👍

📣 Implications for Practice:
SBRT demonstrated ⬆️ local control while maintaining similar safety and OS compared to RFA.
