Prior studies have reported only single-modality approaches. We report our experience with SMTs using multiple surgical techniques with the intent of margin-negative resection and organ preservation. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> Between 2001 and 2022, a total of 55 patients underwent surgical resection for SMT of the esophagus or GEJ at our institution. We reviewed the electronic medical records to obtain demographic information and details of the operation. We also report peri- and early (<30 days) postoperative outcomes. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Median age at operation was 62 years (22-93), and 54.5% were male. Endoscopic ultrasound was used in 45 (81.8%) patients preoperatively to classify tumors as possibly amenable for enucleation versus requiring mucosal resection. Forty-eight (87.3%) patients underwent minimally invasive procedures. Enucleation was performed in 23 (41.8%) patients, whereas 32 (58.2%) required full-thickness resection (wedge: 18; segmental: 11) or tumor resection with mucosectomy. One patient experienced Clavien-Dindo grade III or greater complications. There were no reoperations or postoperative mortality. Pathology revealed gastrointestinal stromal tumor in 25 (45.5%) patients, leiomyoma in 22 (40%), and other histology in 8 (14.5%). Negative surgical margins were achieved in 100% of the cases.

Liver surgery ranges from simple wedge resections to complex hepatectomies involving vascular or biliary reconstructions. The anatomical complexity of the liver and these varied surgical approaches create challenges in assessing operative difficulty. This literature review explores the key factors influencing operative difficulty in liver resection for primary liver malignancy across surgical techniques. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> A broad literature review was conducted to determine the factors that were associated with increased operative difficulty in liver resection using the Embase, PubMed, and Cochrane databases for studies published between 2000 and 2025. <b><i>Results:</i></b> This review identifies several patient, tumor, and surgical factors that influence operative difficulty in liver resection. Numerous difficult scoring systems were identified, yet their applicability across different operative approaches remains uncertain. Across open and minimally invasive techniques, tumor size and location are commonly used to determine complexity. However, debate remains regarding the optimal cutoff for tumor diameter. Other identified factors include the extent of resection, patient-specific variables (e.g., cirrhosis, body mass index, previous surgeries), and surgical technique. In addition, liver resection procedures classified based on the 2000 Brisbane terminology have been stratified into three groups of increasing difficulty. <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> The ability to predict operative difficulty is useful for case selection, surgical planning, and risk stratification for meaningful shared decision-making.

However, there is limited data on long-term outcomes in the veteran population. This study attempts to determine long-term weight loss and resolution of comorbidities following an LSG in a veteran population. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> A retrospective review was performed of a prospectively maintained database of LSG patients at a single veterans Affairs Medical Center from 2013 to 2019. Patient preoperative factors, 5-year weight loss, resolution of comorbidities, and morbidities were collected and analyzed using univariate and multivariate analysis. An alpha level of 0.05 was used to determine significance. Statistical analyses were performed by using SAS version 9.4. <b><i>Results:</i></b> A total of 153 patients underwent LSG, with 98.7% completing a 5-year follow-up. At 5 years, rates of diabetes (50.9% versus 37.7%, <i>P</i> < .001), hypertension (59.2% versus 49.7%, <i>P</i> < .001), gastroesophageal reflux disease (51.6% versus 40.9%, <i>P</i> < .001), and sleep apnea (67.3% versus 40.9%, <i>P</i> < .001) were significantly reduced from baseline. Average total weight lost was 13.5% from baseline weight, with no perioperative mortalities. Preoperative body mass index (BMI) was the only factor predictive of postoperative BMI. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> LSG remains a safe and effective option for veterans with morbid obesity with concurrent resolution of several comorbidities. As the treatment of obesity continues to evolve, postoperative data remains critical to guide patient care.</p>","PeriodicalId":50166,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Laparoendoscopic & Advanced Surgical Techniques","volume":" ","pages":"513-518"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144129177","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
