BACKGROUND: The prognosis for unresectable perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (phCCA) is extremely poor. Liver transplantation in combination with neoadjuvant chemoradiation therapy has become the treatment of choice for unresectable phCCA in the USA. In 2018, we launched a prospective study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) for unresectable phCCA. METHODS: A total of 10 patients were enrolled in this study between 2018 and 2024. Finally, five patients with unresectable phCCA underwent LDLT after neoadjuvant chemotherapy, radiation, and staging laparotomy, while the other five patients dropped out of the protocol. RESULTS: The median follow-up period was 23.7 months. The overall survival rate for the five patients who underwent LDLT was 100% after one year. Hepatic artery thrombosis and delayed gastric emptying occurred in two and three cases, respectively. The histological efficacy of preoperative treatment was grade IIb and III, according to the Evans classification, in all five patients. All surgical margins and dissected lymph nodes were negative. Four patients were alive with no evidence of disease recurrence while one patient had recurrence 10 months after LDLT. CONCLUSIONS: LDLT is feasible and may be a last-resort treatment option for unresectable phCCA, although the long-term outcomes need to be carefully monitored. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTER AND CLINICAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: The UMIN registration number for this study is 000033348.

Abstract

Background

The efficacy of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy for resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (R-PDAC) remains unclear. This study was designed to evaluate neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy by using intensity-modulated radiotherapy (NAC-IMRT) for R-PDAC compared with upfront surgery (UpS).

Methods

Among 198 patients with R-PDAC who were indicated for resection between 2013 and 2021, 130 were included in this study after excluding patients who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy and did not meet the NAC-IMRT criteria (Eligible set). NAC-IMRT was planned for 58 patients, and UpS was planned for 72 patients. Additionally, in 105 patients who could undergo the planned treatment (As-treated set), the surgical, pathological, and oncological outcomes were evaluated.

Results

In the Eligible set, median overall survival (OS) was 50.5 months with NAC-IMRT and 34.7 months with UpS and progression-free survival was 20.4 months with NAC-IMRT and 13.9 months with UpS. In the As-treated set, OS was longer in the NAC-IMRT group (66.7 months vs. 34.7 months, p = 0.007). On multivariate analysis, NAC-IMRT was identified as an independent factor for better OS (hazard ratio 0.617, 95% confidence interval 0.382–0.995, p = 0.047, in the Eligible set). The incidence of postoperative complications did not show a difference between the two groups, and NAC-IMRT suppressed local tumor invasion, including lymphatic, venous, perineural invasion, and lymph node metastases.

Conclusions

NAC-IMRT may offer superior survival outcomes and manageable toxicity in R-PDAC patients compared with upfront surgery. This study supports the efficacy and safety of NAC-IMRT and recommends its consideration in R-PDAC treatment protocols.

Conversion surgery means surgery for initially unresectable tumors which are converted to resectable tumors by multidisciplinary treatment. Since the introduction of highly effective drug therapies including immune checkpoint inhibitors for hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC), conversion surgery for HCC has become a common experience. Recently, the Japanese Expert Consensus 2023 have reported on the oncological criteria of resectability for HCC, allowing us to use common terms to describe unresectable HCC, which had been ambiguously defined in the past. HCC cases are classified into 3 criteria, based on the tumor number and size, the degree of vascular invasion, and the degree of extrahepatic involvement. The 3 criteria are R(resectable; oncological status for which surgery alone may offer clearly better survival outcomes compared to the other treatment), BR1(borderline resectable 1; oncological status for which surgical intervention as a part of multidisciplinary treatment may offer survival benefit), and BR2(borderline resectable 2; initially unsuitable for resection: oncological status for which efficacy of surgery is indeterminate and surgical indication should be carefully determined under the standard multidisciplinary management of HCC). Whether conversion surgery improves prognosis under the assumption that nonsurgical treatment such as drug therapy has been successful is a question for further investigation.

BACKGROUND: Techniques involving dye injection or regional ischemia are commonly used for the precise identification of liver regions during hepatectomy.1,2 The visualization of regions with indocyanine green (ICG) has been widely used for liver segmentation.3 ICG is typically administered only once during each hepatectomy. We developed a threshold-adjustable Medical Imaging Projection System (MIPS) that projects ICG fluorescent images directly onto a patient's organ, which shows potential for real-time navigation.4,5 We report a case in which a fluorescence intensity gradient using two different doses of ICG was effective during anatomical right anterior sectionectomy. METHODS: A 73-year-old man underwent one radiation treatment and three radiofrequency ablations for hepatocellular carcinoma over the past 4 years. A follow-up computed tomography scan revealed a low-density lesion in segment 8 with a portal vein tumor thrombus (PVTT), and we planned a right anterior sectionectomy. A direct approach to the pedicle with the PVTT was not recommended as portal patency in the anterior section was unknown; therefore, we identified the three liver regions using a fluorescence intensity gradient. RESULTS: The ICG fluorescence intensity gradient was established using two doses of ICG, which effectively identified the right posterior and anterior sections and the left lobe. MIPS clearly projected each section boundary onto the liver surface. Right anterior sectionectomy was successfully performed with no postoperative complications. Pathological examination revealed a negative surgical margin. CONCLUSIONS: Utilizing multiple ICG dosages for boundary identification of liver regions has potential use for anatomic hepatectomy.

INTRODUCTION: The only treatment for non-resectable colorectal liver metastasis (CRLM) is medical therapy, and the overall survival (OS) rate at 3 and 5 years is approximately 30%-40% and less than 10%, respectively. In 2020, a group in Norway reported that liver transplantation for non-resectable CRLM improved the 5-year OS rate to up to 83%. Clinical trials have been launched since that report was published, but most have involved deceased-donor liver transplantation rather than living-donor liver transplantation. Our study will assess the efficacy and safety of living-donor liver transplantation for patients with non-resectable CRLM. METHODS AND ANALYSIS: This is an investigator-driven, multicentre, prospective, single-arm study involving 11 university hospitals in Japan. Patients with non-resectable CRLM and resected primary cancers will be enrolled in the study. Any patients with histopathological or genetic mutations, such as those of RAS and BRAF, are eligible. Furthermore, patients who underwent lung treatment for three or fewer pulmonary metastases and experienced no recurrence for more than 6 months are eligible. The eligibility of the candidates will be reviewed by the Central Eligibility Review Committee. The primary endpoint is the 3-year OS rate. Assuming an OS rate of 70% and a threshold of 45%, the number of required patients is 23, with an alpha error of 5% (one-sided), power of 80% and a 10% dropout rate. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION: Ethical approval was obtained from the ethical review board of Kyoto University (R-1591). All participants are required to provide written informed consent. The results will be submitted for publication in a peer-reviewed journal. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER: jRCT1050230053 and UMIN000049785.

Gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (NET) often metastasize to the liver. Although curative liver resection provides a favorable prognosis for patients with neuroendocrine liver metastasis (NELM), with a 5-year survival rate of 70-80%, recurrence is almost inevitable, mainly in the remnant liver. In Western countries, liver transplantation (LT) has been performed in patients with NELM, with the objective of complete removal of macro- and micro-NELMs. However, prognosis had been unsatisfactory, with 5-year overall survival and recurrence-free survival rates of approximately 50 and 30%, respectively. In 2007, the Milan criteria were proposed as indications for LT for NELM. The criteria included: (1) confirmed histology of NET-G1 or G2; (2) a primary tumor drained by the portal system and all extrahepatic diseases removed with curative resection before LT; (3) liver involvement ≤50%; (4) good response or stable disease for at least 6 months before LT; (5) age ≤ 55 years. A subsequent report demonstrated outstanding LT outcomes for NELM within the Milan criteria, with 5-year overall survival and recurrence rates of 97 and 13%, respectively. In Japan, living donor LT (LDLT) for NELM has been performed sporadically in only 16 patients by 2021 in Japan; however, no consensus has been reached on the indications or perioperative management of LDLT. This article presents the outcomes of these 16 patients who underwent LDLT in Japan and reviews the literature to clarify optimal indications and perioperative management of LDLT for NELM in the era of novel multimodal treatments.

BACKGROUND: The incidence of pancreatic cancer is on the rise, and its prognosis remains poor. Recent reports have established a link between the gut and oral microbiome and pancreatic cancer. However, the intricacies of this association within the Japanese population remain unclear. In this study, we investigated the gut and oral microbiomes of Japanese patients with pancreatic cancer, comparing them with those of healthy individuals. METHODS: We recruited 30 patients with untreated pancreatic cancer and 18 healthy controls at Kyoto University Hospital (2018-2022). We performed a comprehensive 16S rRNA gene sequencing to analyze their gut and oral microbiomes. RESULTS: Analysis revealed that the diversity of the gut and oral microbiomes of patients with pancreatic cancer was reduced compared to that of the healthy controls. Specifically, we observed an increase in the genus Streptococcus in both the gut and oral microbiomes and a significant decrease in several butyrate-producing bacteria in fecal samples. Moreover, bacteria such as Streptococcus mitis and Holdemanella biformis were present in pancreatic cancer tissues, suggesting that they might influence the carcinogenesis and progression of pancreatic cancer. CONCLUSIONS: The gut and oral microbiome differed between patients with pancreatic cancer and healthy controls, with a notable decrease in butyrate-producing bacteria in the gut microbiome of the patients. This suggests that there may be a distinct microbial signature associated with pancreatic cancer in the Japanese population. Further studies are required to elucidate the microbiome's causal role in this cancer and help develop prognostic markers or targeted therapies.

We introduce a novel notation system for pancreatectomy designed to provide a clear and concise representation of surgical procedures. As surgical techniques and the scope of pancreatic surgeries continue to diversify, existing communication methods among medical professionals regarding the specifics of the surgeries have proven inadequate. Our proposed notation system clearly indicates the approach (open, laparoscopic, or robot-assisted), type of surgery (e.g., pancreatoduodenectomy, distal pancreatectomy), and extent of resection and accompanying resected organs or vasculature. These elements are all recorded in this order by using abbreviations. For example, a pancreatoduodenectomy with pancreatic transection just above the SMA and combined resection of the SMV would be noted as "OPD(hb')-SMV". This new notation system allows for concise expression of the essential information on performed procedures of pancreatic resection, leading to smooth information sharing. This initiative is an essential step towards standardizing pancreatic surgery documentation on a global scale. Here, we present the development and application of this system, highlighting its potential to transform surgical communication and documentation.

BACKGROUND: The indication of living donor liver retransplantation (re-LDLT) for retransplant candidates with chronic allograft failure (CAF) is increasing because of the high mortality rate of patients on the waiting list. However, evidence supporting re-LDLT for CAF remains scarce because of technical difficulties. We aimed to examine the feasibility based on our significant case experience. METHODS: A total of 95 retransplant cases (adult: 53, pediatric: 42) between 2000 and 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. Graft survival after re-LDLT and deceased donor liver retransplantation (re-DDLT) was compared among recipients with CAF and acute allograft failure (AAF). RESULTS: Re-LDLTs for CAF were performed in 58 (61.1%) cases, re-DDLTs for CAF in 16 (16.8%) cases, re-LDLTs for AAF in 13 (13.7%) cases, and re-DDLTs for AAF in 8 (8.4%) cases. Re-DDLTs have become increasingly prevalent over time. Retransplantation for AAF results in lower graft survival than that for CAF in both adult and pediatric cases. All adult recipients who underwent re-LDLT for AAF died within 1 y after retransplantation. The 5-y graft survival between re-LDLT and re-DDLT for CAF was not significantly different (73.8% versus 75.0%, P = 0.84). Operation time and blood loss were not significantly different. CONCLUSIONS: The survival rate of re-LDLT for recipients with CAF is permissible. Re-LDLT may be another treatment option for recipients with CAF.

Total pancreatectomy with islet autotransplantation (TPIAT) is an established and effective treatment modality for patients diagnosed with intractable chronic pancreatitis (CP) and recurrent acute pancreatitis (RAP). TPIAT primarily aims to manage debilitating pain leading to impaired quality of life among patients with CP or RAP, which can be successfully managed with medical, endoscopic, or surgical interventions. TPIAT is significantly successful in relieving pain associated with CP and improving health-related quality of life outcomes. Furthermore, the complete loss of pancreatic endocrine function attributed to total pancreatectomy (TP) can be compensated by autologous islet transplantation (IAT). Patients receiving IAT can achieve insulin independence or can be less dependent on exogenous insulin compared with those receiving TP alone. Historically, TPIAT has been mainly used in the United States, and its outcomes have been improving due to technological advancements. Despite some challenges, TPIAT can be a promising treatment for patients with CP-related intractable pain. Thus far, TPIAT is not commonly performed in Japan. Nevertheless, it may improve health-related quality of life in Japanese patients with CP, similar to Western patients. This review article aimed to provide an overview of the indications, related procedures, and outcomes of TPIAT and to discuss future prospects in Japan.

BACKGROUND: The utilization of islet-like cells derived from pluripotent stem cells may resolve the scarcity of islet transplantation donors. The subcutaneous space is a promising transplantation site because of its capacity for graft observation and removal, thereby ensuring safety. To guarantee subcutaneous islet transplantation, physicians should ensure ample blood supply. Numerous methodologies, including prevascularization, have been investigated to augment blood flow, but the optimal approach remains undetermined. METHODS: From C57BL/6 mice, 500 syngeneic islets were transplanted into the prevascularized subcutaneous site of recipient mice by implanting agarose rods with basic fibroblast growth factor at 1 and 2 wk. Before transplantation, the blood glucose levels, cell infiltration, and cytokine levels at the transplant site were evaluated. Furthermore, we examined the impact of the extracellular matrix capsule on graft function and the inflammatory response. RESULTS: Compared with the 1-wk group, the 2-wk group exhibited improved glycemic control, indicating that longer prevascularization enhanced transplant success. Flow cytometry analysis detected immune cells, such as neutrophils and macrophages, in the extracellular matrix capsules, whereas cytometric bead array analysis indicated the release of inflammatory and proinflammatory cytokines. Treatment with antitumor necrosis factor and anti-interleukin-6R antibodies in the 1-wk group improved graft survival, similar to the 2-wk group. CONCLUSIONS: In early prevascularization before subcutaneous transplantation, neutrophil and macrophage accumulation prevented early engraftment owing to inflammatory cytokine production.

Pancreatic acinar cystic transformation (ACT) is a rare non-neoplastic cystic lesion that is predominantly located at the pancreatic head in females. Preoperative definitive diagnosis of ACT remains challenging despite advances in radiologic imaging methods. A 25-year-old male patient presented with abdominal discomfort and a 50-mm cystic lesion in the pancreatic tail. The patient underwent laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy, because branch duct intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm cannot be ruled out and the presence of abdominal symptoms. The resected specimen revealed a collection of small and large cysts lined by a single cuboidal epithelium layer with scattered pancreatic tissue exhibiting fibrosis in the septal wall. The cystic lesion was epithelial, trypsin-positive, B cell lymphoma 10-positive, cytokeratin 19-positive, mucin 1-positive, and MUC6-negative with a differentiated lobular central conduit causing to an adeno-cystic cell, thereby supporting the ACT diagnosis. Distinguishing ACT from other pancreatic cystic tumors remains a diagnostic challenge despite improvements in radiologic imaging methods. Surgical resection may be justified when other cystic neoplasms cannot be excluded because of its heterogeneous nature, although the ACT is a non-neoplastic lesion, and cases of malignant transformation have never been reported to date.

BACKGROUND: Resectable pancreatic cancer (RPC) is potentially resectable on admission, and the impact of neoadjuvant therapy on these tumors is controversial. Moreover, the safety and efficacy of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy with moderately hypofractionated intensity-modulated radiation therapy (NACIMRT) for RPC have not been studied. Here, we conducted a phase II study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of hypofractionated NACIMRT for RPC. METHODS: A total of 54 RPC patients were enrolled and treated according to the study protocol. We used moderately hypofractionated (45 Gy in 15 fractions) IMRT with gemcitabine to shorten the duration of radiotherapy and reduce gastrointestinal toxicity. The primary endpoint was overall survival (OS), and we subsequently analyzed the microscopically margin-negative resection (R0) rate, disease-free survival (DFS), and histologic effects and safety of NACIMRT. RESULTS: Median OS for the cohort was 40.0 months. Forty-two patients (77.8%) underwent pancreatectomy after NACIMRT. Median DFS was 20.3 months. The R0 resection rate was 95.2% (40/42) per protocol and 85.2% (46/54) for the cohort. There were no intervention-related deaths during the study period. Local treatment response, as assessed by the CAP classification, showed no residual tumor in 4.8% of patients. Overall, 23.9% of patients experienced CTCAE grade 3 or 4 during NACIMRT. Adjuvant therapy was initiated in 88% of patients undergoing resection. Postoperative complications grade ≥3b on the Clavien-Dindo scale occurred in 4.8% of patients. CA19-9 level at enrollment was an independent prognostic factor for OS and DFS. CONCLUSIONS: This is the first prospective study of hypofractionated IMRT as neoadjuvant therapy for RPC. Hypofractionated NACIMRT for RPC could be safely introduced with a high induction rate of adjuvant chemotherapy, with an overall survival of 40.0 months.

BACKGROUND ＆ AIMS: Optimizing treatments balancing prognosis and therapeutic invasiveness is important in the management of pancreatic cancer (PC) owing to global ageing. This study aimed to verify the different utility of biomarkers by patients' age. MATERIALS ＆ METHODS: This is a single-center, retrospective cohort analysis involving 160 patients who undertook pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) for PC. After comparing clinicopathological factors and survival after PD between aged (≥70 y/o) and young (＜70 y/o) patients, we compared neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), controlling nutrition (CONUT) score, carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and carbohydrate antigen (CA) 19-9 as well as clinicopathological factors between long and short survivors in each group. We also performed Kaplan-Meyer analysis between patients stratified by biomarkers. RESULTS: Overall survival (OS) was significantly worse in aged patients (p = 0.002). In aged patients, CEA was significantly higher in short survivors. In young patients, CONUT score and CA19-9 were higher in short survivors. Kaplan-Meyer analysis showed that NLR and CEA stratified OS in aged patients, whereas CONUT score and CA19-9 could stratify OS in young patients. CONCLUSION: Our current results suggest that these biomarkers had different impact on survivals according to the patients' age.

It is crucial to develop practical and noninvasive methods to assess the functional beta-cell mass in a donor pancreas, in which monitoring and precise evaluation is challenging. A patient with type 1 diabetes underwent noninvasive imaging following simultaneous kidney-pancreas transplantation with positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) using an exendin-based probe, [18 F]FB(ePEG12)12-exendin-4. Following transplantation, PET imaging with [18 F]FB(ePEG12)12-exendin-4 revealed simultaneous and distinct accumulations in the donor and native pancreases. The pancreases were outlined at a reasonable distance from the surrounding organs using [18 F]FB(ePEG12)12-exendin-4 whole-body maximum intensity projection and axial PET images. At 1 and 2 h after [18 F]FB(ePEG12)12-exendin-4 administration, the mean standardized uptake values were 2.96 and 3.08, respectively, in the donor pancreas and 1.97 and 2.25, respectively, in the native pancreas. [18 F]FB(ePEG12)12-exendin-4 positron emission tomography imaging allowed repeatable and quantitative assessment of beta-cell mass following simultaneous kidney-pancreas transplantation.

Bile duct cancer (BDC) frequently invades the nerve fibers, making complete surgical resection difficult. A single tumor mass contains cells of variable malignancy and cell-differentiation states, with cancer stem cells (CSCs) considered responsible for poor clinical outcomes. This study aimed to investigate the contribution of autosynthesized dopamine to CSC-related properties in BDC. Sphere formation assays using 13 commercially available BDC cell lines demonstrated that blocking dopamine receptor D1 (DRD1) signaling promoted CSC-related anchorage-independent growth. Additionally, we newly established four new BDC patient-derived organoids (PDOs) and found that blocking DRD1 increased resistance to chemotherapy and enabled xenotransplantation in vivo. Single-cell analysis revealed that the BDC PDO cells varied in their cell-differentiation states and responses to dopamine signaling. Further, DRD1 inhibition increased WNT7B expression in cells with bile duct-like phenotype, and it induced proliferation of other cell types expressing Wnt receptors and stem cell-like signatures. Reagents that inhibited Wnt function canceled the effect of DRD1 inhibition and reduced cell proliferation in BDC PDOs. In summary, in BDCs, DRD1 is a crucial protein involved in autonomous CSC proliferation through the regulation of endogenous WNT7B. As such, inhibition of the DRD1 feedback signaling may be a potential treatment strategy for BDC.

Insulin antibodies (IAs) can cause glycemic variability. Islet transplantation (ITx) is a treatment for insulin-deficient diabetes that aims to establish on-target glycemic control in the absence of hypoglycemia. To date, there has not been a detailed case study of the association between ITx and IA levels. In this study, we identified a unique profile of IA titers, which differed from glutamic acid decarboxylase antibody titers, in four ITx patients. IA levels decreased with intensified immunosuppressive therapy, whereas glutamic acid decarboxylase antibodies increased transiently after ITx. These data suggest the possibility that IAs, unlike other islet autoantibodies, were eliminated due to immunosuppression after transplantation therapy. The disappearance of IAs, as well as the restoration of regulated insulin secretion after ITx, might have a positive effect on glycemic control in recipients with diabetes. Furthermore, this unique feature is suggestive of immunological pathogenesis and has implications for the treatment of IA-causing disease conditions.

BACKGROUND: Portal annular pancreas (PAP), also called circumportal pancreas, is a congenital pancreatic anomaly in which the portal and/or mesenteric veins are surrounded by pancreatic parenchyma [1,2]. Joseph et al. classified PAP into three types (according to the fusion pattern of the pancreatic parenchyma and ductal system [1]), each of which they subdivided (based on the relation to the portal confluence) into the suprasplenic, infrasplenic, and mixed type [1,3]. The most common type is IIIa [1,4], where the portal vein (suprasplenic) is encased by the uncinate process with an anteportal main pancreatic duct. METHODS: The patient was a 78-year-old woman who had undergone left nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma five years prior. We performed laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy for a metastatic tumor of the head of a type IIIa PAP (Fig. 1). The anteportal pancreas was transected, and dissection was performed around the superior mesenteric artery using a right approach. The retroportal pancreas was transected using a linear stapler with bioabsorbable polyglycolic acid felt. We performed pancreatojejunostomy for the anteportal stump of the pancreas containing a main pancreatic duct; the retroportal stump was not reconstructed, because it had no major pancreatic ducts on preoperative imaging. RESULTS: The operative time was 505 minutes, and the blood loss was 70 ml. The postoperative course was uneventful, and the patients was discharged on postoperative day 12. CONCLUSION: Laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy was performed successfully in a patient with a type IIIa PAP. The retroportal pancreas can be transected using a linear stapler, without reconstruction.

BACKGROUND: Borderline resectable pancreatic cancer (BRPC) is a category of pancreatic cancer that is anatomically widely spread, and curative resection is uncommon with upfront surgery. Intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) is a form of radiation therapy that delivers precise radiation to a tumor while minimizing the dose to surrounding normal tissues. Here, we conducted a phase 2 study to estimate the curability and efficacy of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy using IMRT (NACIMRT) for patients with BRPC with arterial abutment (BRPC-A). METHODS: A total of 49 BRPC-A patients were enrolled in this study and were treated at our hospital according to the study protocol between June 2013 and March 2021. The primary endpoint was microscopically margin-negative resection (R0) rates and we subsequently analyzed safety, histological effect of the treatment as well as survivals among patients with NACIMRT. RESULTS: Twenty-nine patients (59.2%) received pancreatectomy after NACIMRT. The R0 rate in resection patients was 93.1% and that in the whole cohort was 55.1%. No mortality was encountered. Local therapeutic effects as assessed by Evans classification showed good therapeutic effect (Grade 1, 3.4%; Grade 2a, 31.0%; Grade 2b, 48.3%; Grade 3, 3.4%; Grade 4, 3.4%). Median disease-free survival was 15.5 months. Median overall survival in the whole cohort was 35.1 months. The only independent prognostic pre-NACIMRT factor identified was serum carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) > 400 U/ml before NACIMRT. CONCLUSIONS: NACIMRT showed preferable outcome without significant operative morbidity for BRPC-A patients. NACIMRT contributes to good local tumor control, but a high initial serum CA19-9 implies poor prognosis even after neoadjuvant treatment.

In hepatectomy, the Pringle maneuver is commonly used, but its association with iatrogenic injury is not yet well understood. This report presents a case of dissecting aneurysm of the proper hepatic artery (PHA) possibly associated with the Pringle maneuver during laparoscopic hepatectomy, that was successfully treated by transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE). The patient was a woman in her 70s, and repeat hepatectomy for liver metastasis of rectal neuroendocrine neoplasm was planned. She underwent hand-assisted laparoscopic hepatectomy with the Pringle maneuver. On postoperative day (POD) 7, enhanced computed tomography showed a dissecting aneurysm of the PHA. TAE of the PHA to prevent hemorrhage was performed on POD 9 with no complications. Even after TAE, intrahepatic arterial flow was provided by the peribiliary arteries. This case suggests the possibility that the Pringle maneuver can cause a dissecting aneurysm of the hepatic artery.

BACKGROUND: /Objectives: Although the presence of lymph node metastasis (LNM) defines malignant potential, preoperative prediction of LNM has not been established for non-functional pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasm (NF-PNEN). We sought to develop a prediction system using only preoperatively available factors that would stratify the risk of LNM for NF-PNEN. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed patients who underwent R0/1 resection of NF-PNEN at Kyoto University (2007-2019) and the University of California, San Francisco (2010-2019). Risk stratification of LNM was developed using preoperative factors by the logistic regression analysis. Long-term outcomes were compared across the risk groups. RESULTS: A total of 131 patients were included in this study. Lymph nodes were pathologically examined in 116 patients, 23 (20%) of whom had LNM. Radiological tumor size [1.5-3.5 cm (odds ratio: 13.5, 95% confidence interval: 1.77-398) and >3.5 cm (72.4, 9.06-2257) against ≤1.5 cm], <50% cystic component (8.46 × 10^6, 1.68 × 10^106-), and dilatation of main pancreatic duct ≥5 mm (31.2, 3.94-702) were independently associated with LNM. When patients were classified as the low-risk (43 patients), intermediate-risk (44 patients), and high-risk groups (29 patients), proportions of LNM differed significantly across the groups (0%, 14%, and 59%, respectively). Recurrence-free survival (RFS) of the low- and intermediate-risk groups were significantly better than that of the high-risk group (5-year RFS rates of 92.2%, 85.4%, and 47.1%, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: The prediction system using preoperative radiological factors stratifies the risk of LNM for NF-PNEN. This stratification helps to predict malignant potential and determine the surgical procedure and necessity of regional lymphadenectomy.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: In living-donor liver transplantation (LDLT), anastomotic biliary stricture is a serious and refractory complication. In this study, we reviewed the transition of post-LDLT anastomotic biliary strictures and evaluated long-term outcome of stent placement inside the bile duct, which is referred to as an "inside-stent". METHODS: Of 805 consecutive adult LDLT recipients in our institution (2000-2018), we reviewed 639 patients with duct-to-duct biliary reconstruction and analyzed chronological changes of post-LDLT biliary strictures. Moreover, we focused on 2006 when various surgical modifications were introduced and compared the details of post-LDLT biliary strictures before and after 2006, especially focusing on the long-term outcome of inside-stent placement. RESULTS: The proportion of left-lobe grafts had increased from 1.8% before 2005 to 39.3% after 2006 (P < 0.001) to maximize the living-donor safety. Overall, post-LDLT anastomotic biliary strictures occurred in 21.3% of the patients with a median follow-up period of 106.1 months, which was decreased from 32.6% before 2005 to 12.8% after 2006 (P < 0.001). Anastomotic biliary strictures were less in patients with a left-lobe graft than with a right-lobe (9.4% vs. 25.4%, P < 0.001). The overall technical success rate of inside-stent placement was 82.4%, with an improvement from 75.3% before 2005 up to 95.7% after 2006 (P < 0.01). Furthermore, the stricture resolution rate remained high at approximately 90% throughout the observation period. CONCLUSION: Increased use of left-lobe grafts with several surgical modifications significantly reduced post-LDLT anastomotic biliary strictures, leading to favorable long-term outcome of inside-stent placement for this condition.

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of pretransplant culture on the survival of pancreatic islet grafts, and to determine the biological characteristics of isolated islets during pretransplant culture. METHODS: The survival of islets from Wistar rats, transplanted to diabetic C57BL/B6 mice, was compared between fresh islets and cultured islets. A comprehensive gene expression analysis was employed to investigate biological processes during pretransplant culture, and in vitro validation studies were performed. RESULTS: Survival of cultured xenografts was significantly prolonged as compared to that of fresh islets (fresh:12.5 ± 1.9 days, 1-day cultured:16.0 ± 1.3 days (p= 0.017), 3-day cultured:17.0 ± 2.6 days (p= 0.014)). Comprehensive gene expression analysis identified significant upregulation of annotated functions associated with inflammation in cultured groups. Six proinflammatory genes, including heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1) and IL-6, were significantly upregulated during culture. Validation studies revealed significantly higher levels of IL-6 in the supernatant of cultured islets and HO-1 in the cultured islets when compared with fresh islets. CONCLUSION: Transplantation of cultured islets induced significant but minimal prolongation of graft survival in xenogeneic combinations. Comprehensive analysis of gene expression in cultured islets showed biological processes associated with proinflammation during culture.

当院では、2004年の日本で第1例目の臨床膵島移植以降、2018年までに38回の臨床膵島分離を行ってきた。臨床膵島分離用酵素の変更やドナー背景の変化が膵島分離・移植成績に与えた影響について検討した。対象は、2004年1月から2018年11月までに当院で実施した38例の臨床膵島分離とし、膵島分離用酵素としてLiberase HIを使用した2004年1月から2007年7月までの前期群25例、Liberase MTFを使用した2013年7月から2018年11月までの後期群13例の2群に分け、ドナー因子や膵島分離成績を後方視的に比較検討した。膵島分離成績については、digestion time、dilution timeにおいて両群間に有意差は認めなかった。消化された膵重量の割合は有意に前期群で有意に高かったが、postdigest tissue volumeは両群間で差を認めなかった。postdigest IEQや純化を行った数は両群間で同等であった。Post purificationも両群間で有意差を認めなかった。ロット毎の膵消化後成績については、ロットごとのn数が少なかったため比較が困難であったが、極端な違いは認められなかった。純化後の膵島サイズは200〜250μmにおいて後期群で有意に多かったが、その他のサイズでは有意差を認めなかった。移植後の成績について、Hba1cは両群すべての患者において移植後3ヵ月の時点で改善を認めた。また移植後3ヵ月のSUIT indexは両群間に有意差は認めなかった。

BACKGROUND: /Objectives: This study aimed to elucidate the efficacy of CT findings and perioperative characteristics to predict post-pancreatectomy hemorrhage (PPH): a critical complication after pancreaticoduodenectomy. METHODS: The records of 590 consecutive patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy at three institutes between 2012 and 2018 were included. The presence of a vascular wall abnormality or ascites with high density (vascular abnormality) on postoperative day (POD) 5-10 contrast-enhanced CT (early CT), perioperative characteristics, and any PPH or pseudoaneurysm formation (PPH events) were analyzed through a multivariate analysis. RESULTS: PPH events occurred in 48 out of 590 patients (8%). The vascular abnormality on early CT and the C-reactive protein (CRP) value on POD 3 were independent risk factors for PPH events after POD5 (vascular abnormality: odds ratio 6.42, p = 0.001; CRP on POD 3: odds ratio 1.17, p = 0.016). The sensitivity of vascular abnormality for PPH events was 24% (7/29), and the positive predictive value was 30% (7/23). The combination of vascular abnormality and a high CRP value (≥15.5 mg/dL) on postoperative day 3 had a higher positive predictive value of 64% (7/11) than the vascular abnormality alone. None of the seven PPH events that occurred more than one month after surgery were foreseen via early CT. CONCLUSION: The combination of vascular abnormality and high CRP value was associated with increasing risk of PPH events after pancreaticoduodenectomy, but the low sensitivity of early CT must be noted as an important shortcoming. The normal findings on early CT could not eliminate the risk of late PPH.

The risk factors and clinical impact of post-transplantation splenomegaly (SM) are poorly understood. We investigated the predictors and impacts of post-transplantation SM in 415 LT patients at Kyoto University Hospital from April 2006 to December 2015. First, the predictors and clinical consequences of SM three years post-transplantation were analyzed among spleen-preserved recipients. Second, the clinical data of surviving recipients three years post-transplantation were compared between splenectomized and spleen-preserved recipients. There was no difference in indication for liver transplantation between these two groups. Third, survival outcomes were compared between splenectomized and spleen-preserved recipients. SM was determined as a SV/body surface area (BSA) higher than 152 ml/m2 . In the first analysis, preoperative SM occurred in 79.9% recipients and SM persisted three years post-transplantation in 72.6% recipients among them. Preoperative SV/BSA was the only independent predictor of three year post-transplantation SM, which was associated with lower platelet (PLT), white blood cell (WBC) counts and significant graft fibrosis (21.4% vs. 2.8%). In the second analysis, spleen-preservation was related to lower PLT, WBC counts and a higher proportion of significant graft fibrosis (26.7% vs. 7.1%) three years post-transplantation. In the third analysis, spleen-preserved recipients showed worse survival than splenectomized recipients. In conclusion, preoperative SM frequently persists more than three years post-transplantation and is associated with subclinical hypersplenism, graft fibrosis, graft loss, and even death.

PURPOSE: We describe a "left-posterior approach" in which the important steps in laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy (LDP) for left-sided pancreatic cancer are accomplished in the direction caudal and dorsal to the pancreas. METHODS: The patients who underwent LDP with a left-posterior approach at our hospital from January 2016 to April 2020 were reviewed to evaluate the short-term postoperative outcomes. In LDP, we first dissected retroperitoneal tissues above the left renal vein and superior mesenteric artery, yielding the mobilization of the pancreatic body widely. Then, the splenic artery was divided behind the ventrally lifted pancreas as an artery-first approach. The regional lymphadenectomy was performed in an en bloc manner consecutively in the same operative field. The neck of the pancreas was transected with a linear stapler after mobilization of the spleen. RESULTS: In nine patients (five men and four women) aged 76 years (range: 64-82 years), the operative time was 398 min (276-482 min) with the estimated blood loss of 40 ml (0-80 ml). No patients developed grade B/C pancreatic fistula or delayed gastric emptying. Postoperative complications classified as grade III in the Clavien-Dindo classification occurred in one patient (abdominal abscess). The pathology confirmed R0 resection in all patients who had pancreatic cancer (n = 5), IPMNs (n = 3), and high-grade pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PanIN) (n = 1). The number of retrieved lymph nodes was 35 (11-49). CONCLUSION: The procedure with a left-posterior approach is a rational surgical technique in LDP for left-sided pancreatic cancer.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: A postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is a critical complication after surgery for pancreatic cancer. Whether a POPF affects the long-term prognosis of pancreatic cancer cases remains controversial. This study aimed to clarify the effect of a POPF on the long-term prognosis of pancreatic cancer patients, especially after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (NACRT). METHODS: Patients who underwent curative pancreatectomy for pancreatic cancer between January 2012 and June 2019 at Kyoto University Hospital were retrospectively investigated. A fistula ≥ Grade B was considered a POPF. RESULTS: During the study period, 148 patients underwent upfront surgery (Upfront group), and 52 patients underwent surgery after NACRT (NACRT group). A POPF developed in 16% of patients in the Upfront group and 13% in the NACRT group (p = 0.824). In the Upfront group, development of a POPF did not have a significant effect on recurrence-free survival (p = 0.766) or overall survival (p = 0.863). However, in the NACRT group, development of a POPF significantly decreased recurrence-free survival (HR 5.856, p = 0.002) and overall survival (HR 7.097, p = 0.020) on multivariate analysis. CONCLUSIONS: The development of a POPF decreases the survival of pancreatic cancer patients treated by surgery after NACRT.

Mac-2-binding protein glycosylation isomer (M2BPGi) is a novel liver fibrosis biomarker, but there are few studies in liver transplantation (LT) recipients. This study aimed to evaluate the utility of M2BPGi measurement in LT recipients. We collected the clinicopathological data of 233 patients who underwent a liver biopsy at Kyoto University Hospital after liver transplantation between August 2015 and June 2019. The median values of M2BPGi in patients with METAVIR fibrosis stages F0, F1, F2, and ≥F3 were 0.61, 0.76, 1.16, and 1.47, respectively, whereas those in patients with METAVIR necroinflammatory indexes A0, A1, and ≥A2 were 0.53, 1.145, and 2.24, respectively. Spearman's rank correlation test suggested that the necroinflammatory index had a stronger correlation to the M2BPGi value than the fibrosis stage. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of M2BPGi to predict ≥A1 was 0.75, which was significantly higher than that of any other liver fibrosis and inflammation marker. Patients with a rejection activity index (RAI) of ≥3 had a higher M2BPGi value than those with RAI ≤ 2 (P = 0.0013). Patients with hepatitis C viremia had a higher M2BPGi value than sustained virological responders or those with other etiologies. In conclusion, the present study demonstrated that M2BPGi values are more strongly influenced by necroinflammatory activity and revealed M2BPGi, which has been thought to be a so-called fibrosis marker, as a disease activity marker in transplant recipients. M2BPGi measurement may be useful to detect early-stage liver inflammation that cannot be detected by routine blood examination of LT recipients.

The in vitro culture period prior to cell transplantation (i.e. pancreatic islet transplantation) enables cell modification and is thus advantageous. However, the islet preconditioning method has not been fully explored. Here we present a simple approach for islet preconditioning that uses the antibiotic mitomycin C (MMC), which has antitumor activity, to reduce islet immunogenicity and prevent proinflammatory events in an intraportal islet transplantation model. Freshly isolated mice islets were treated for 30 min with 10 μg/mL MMC or not, cultured for 20 h and transplanted into the livers of syngeneic or allogeneic diabetic mouse recipients. In the allogeneic model, MMC preconditioning significantly prolonged graft survival without requiring immunosuppressants. In vitro, MMC treatment suppressed the expression of proinflammatory cytokines in islet allografts, while immunohistochemical studies revealed the suppression of inflammatory cell infiltration into MMC-treated allografts relative to untreated allografts. Furthermore, MMC preconditioning significantly suppressed the mRNA expression of proinflammatory cytokines into the transplant site and induced the differentiation of regulatory T cells with the ability to suppress CD4+ T cell-mediated immune responses. In conclusion, islet preconditioning with MMC prolonged graft survival in an intraportal islet transplantation model by suppressing proinflammatory events and inducing potentially regulatory lymphocytes.

Although pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (PanNENs) are generally indolent, patients with distant metastasis have a dismal prognosis. Recently, the autophagy inhibitor chloroquine (CQ) has been shown to suppress the tumour growth of PanNENs, but the detailed mechanisms have not been elucidated. Furthermore, these results were obtained from poorly differentiated cell lines rather than well-differentiated cell lines, which is the most prevalent type in this tumour. To explore the mechanism and efficacy of CQ on PanNENs, we applied CQ to cell lines and evaluated the resulting apoptosis and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. CQ treatment induced ER stress, and an unfolded protein response was activated through the PERK-eIF2α-ATF4 pathway, resulting in the expression of the pro-apoptotic protein C/EBP homologous protein (CHOP), which reflects ER-stress-mediated apoptotic cell death. Furthermore, hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) was effective in Men1 heterozygous-deficient (Men1+/ΔN3-8) mice, a mouse PanNEN model that is considered to correspond to human low-grade PanNEN. HCQ administration decreased tumour size in Men1+/ΔN3-8 mice. In the HCQ group, histological analyses revealed that proliferative activity was unchanged, but apoptosis was accelerated, accompanied by CHOP expression. These results suggest that autophagy inhibition by CQ/HCQ could be used for the treatment of PanNEN, including the well-differentiated type.

To date, studies of patients with islet transplantation addressing intermittently scanned continuous glucose monitoring profile and the flexibility of the graft islet function under different doses of insulin administration, both of which reflect the real daily life of patients, are quite limited. Here, we report a case of a 46-year-old woman who received islet transplantation after kidney transplantation. The patient was followed up over a period of 2 years after initial islet transplantation. Our results show that intermittently scanned continuous glucose monitoring can be useful for monitoring the reduction of glycemic variability, and suggest the appropriate regulation of insulin secretion from graft islets during mixed-meal test by using different doses of exogenous insulin administration. Additionally, during the 2-year observational period, glucagon elevation was detected only at hypoglycemia, whereas the level was within the normal range at normoglycemia or hyperglycemia.

Background: In the treatment of metastatic pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PanNETs), surgical resection is the first choice if curative resection is expected. However, most patients develop recurrence after resection of liver metastasis. Because one of the benefits of resection is to gain a tumor-free period for the patients, it is important to identify which patients achieve longer recurrence-free survival (RFS) by resection. In this study, the clinicopathological factors associated with RFS after resection of metastatic PanNETs in the liver were evaluated to identify the patient group that is suitable for resection.Methods: Consecutively diagnosed patients with PanNET liver metastasis with resection at our hospital from January 2000 to July 2019 were evaluated. A total of 26 metastatic PanNET patients with primary liver resections were evaluated. The median follow-up time was 48.3 months.Results: There were 18 NET recurrences of the total 26 resections, with a median RFS of 17.9 months. Independent risk factors for short RFS were a high Ki67 index (p = .009) and the number of resected tumors (p = .045). When the cut-off value for the Ki67 index was 5.0% and that for the number of resected tumors was 6, Ki67 > 5.0% tumors had shorter RFS (4.9 months vs. 38.2 months p = .006), and patients with tumors > = 7 tumors had shorter RFS (4.7 months vs. 27.5 months p = .001).Conclusions: These findings indicate that good candidates for resection of metastatic tumors of PanNETs could be patients with low Ki67 tumors and a small number of metastatic tumors.

BACKGROUND: Although 18 F-FDG-PET/CT is a widely used diagnostic tool for several malignancies, its efficacy in diagnosing pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors is reported to be controversial because of the short-term follow-up. METHODS: We retrospectively compared demographics and pathological features between 18 F-FDG-positive and -negative diseases. Additionally, we evaluated whether the avidity of 18 F-FDG-PET/CT affected earlier recurrence after curative treatment of non-functioning tumors. The median duration of observation was 65.6 months. RESULTS: Seventy-two patients were enrolled. 18 F-FDG-positive diseases were pathologically advanced and significantly associated with metastatic behavior. In a multivariate analysis, metastatic behavior and WHO tumor grade was independently associated with 18 F-FDG accumulation. Only 25% of functional tumors (4/16) and 8% of insulinomas (1/12) were 18 F-FDG-positive. In a Kaplan-Meier analysis in patients with non-functioning tumors (n = 56), 18 F-FDG-positivity was significantly correlated with poorer recurrence-free survival (RFS) but had no correlation with overall survival. In univariate analysis of factors associated with shorter RFS, male gender, prevalence of nodal metastasis, WHO tumor grade ≥G2, or 18 F-FDG-positive disease were significantly higher in patients with shorter RFS, whereas only 18 F-FDG-positivity was associated with shorter RFS in multivariate analyses. CONCLUSIONS: The avidity of 18 F-FDG-PET/CT was associated with metastatic behavior of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors and recurrence after treatment of non-functioning tumors.

AIMS/INTRODUCTION: To investigate the long-term efficacy and safety of islet transplantation (ITx) compared with multiple daily injections (MDI) or continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Among 619 patients diagnosed as insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus or type 1 diabetes at Kyoto University, Kyoto, Japan, seven patients were selected as the ITx group and 26 age-matched patients with no endogenous insulin secretion were selected as the MDI/CSII group. Hemoglobin A1c, aspartate aminotransferase/alanine aminotransferase (AST/ALT) and creatinine were assessed retrospectively at 1, 2, 5 and 10 years for both groups; serum C-peptide immunoreactivity was assessed for the ITx group. Major clinical events were also assessed. RESULTS: Hemoglobin A1c improvement in ITx was significant at 1 year (8.4% [7.8-9.9%] at baseline to 7.1% [6.3-7.4%] in ITx vs 8.2% [7.4-9.8%] at baseline to 8.1% [7.3-9.5%] in MDI/CSII, P < 0.01 between groups), and was maintained at 2 years (7.4% [6.3-8.2%] vs 8.4% [7.4-9.6%], P = 0.11). The increase of stimulated C-peptide immunoreactivity was significant at 1 year (0.57 ng/mL [0.26-0.99 ng/mL], P < 0.05 from baseline) and 2 years (0.43 ng/mL [0.19-0.67 ng/mL], P < 0.05), although it became insignificant thereafter. There was no significant difference in AST/ALT or creatinine at 10 years, although a transient AST/ALT elevation was observed in ITx. In regard to clinical events, the occurrence of severe hypoglycemia was 14% vs 31% (relative risk 0.46, P = 0.64), that of infectious disease was 43% vs 12% (relative risk 3.71, P = 0.09) and digestive symptoms was 43% vs 7.7% (relative risk 5.57, P = 0.05) in ITx vs MDI/CSII, respectively. No patient died in either group. CONCLUSIONS: The present findings showed that ITx was considered to contribute to the reduction of hypoglycemia and better glycemic control with tolerable, but attention-requiring, risks over a period of 10 years compared with MDI/CSII.

BACKGROUND: Recent management after pancreatoduodenectomy recommends either omission of prophylactic drainage or early removal. This potentially makes the diagnosis of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) difficult because the diagnosis is based on the amylase value of drain effluent. The aim of this study was to determine if severe POPF could be predicted independent of drainage information. METHODS: Records of consecutive patients who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy between 2012 and 2018 were included for further analysis. The presence of a peripancreatic collection (PC) on routine postoperative (day7) computed tomography (early CT) and perioperative characteristics were analyzed. RESULTS: PC appeared in 82/211 patients (39%) and was associated with clinically relevant POPF (p < 0.001). The C-reactive protein (CRP) on postoperative day5 was a good predictor of severe POPF (needing interventional therapy or Grade C) (area under the receiver operating characteristics curve, 0.802; 95% confidence interval, 0.702-0.875). Presence of a PC and a high CRP value were independent risk factors for severe POPF following multivariate analysis. The combination of CRP<5.0 mg/dL on postoperative day 5 and the absence of a PC had 98% negative predictive value. CONCLUSION: The combination of CRP measurement and PC evaluation by early CT was useful in predicting severe POPF after pancreatoduodenectomy.

Antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) is a refractory rejection after donor-specific antibody-positive or ABO blood-type incompatible (ABOi) organ transplantation. Rituximab dramatically improved the outcome of ABOi living-donor liver transplantation (LDLT); however, an effective treatment for posttransplant AMR, once occurred, is yet to be established. A 44-year-old woman with biliary cirrhosis underwent ABOi-LDLT from her sister (AB-to-A). Pretransplant rituximab diminished CD19/20-positive B lymphocytes to 0.6%/0.0%; however, AMR occurred on posttransplant day-6 with marked increase in both CD19/20 cells (17.1%/5.8%) and anti-B IgM/G-titers (1024/512). Despite rituximab readministration, steroid-pulse, intravenous immunoglobulin, and plasmapheresis, AMR was uncontrollable, with further increasing CD19/20 cells (23.0%/0.0%) and antibody-titers (2048/512). Bortezomib (1.0 mg/m2) was thus administered on posttransplant day-9, immediately ameliorating CD19/20 cells (1.3%/0.0%) and antibody-titers (<256/128). Complete remission of refractory AMR was obtained by just 2 doses of bortezomib. Her liver function has been stable thereafter for over 3 years. This case highlighted the efficacy of bortezomib against refractory AMR after ABOi-LDLT. Unlike previous reports, the efficacy was very dramatic, presumably due to the administration timing near the peak of acute-phase AMR.

BACKGROUND: We evaluated the clinicopathological factors associated with lymph node metastasis in patients with non-functioning pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (PanNENs), focusing on the risk factors and range of lymph node metastasis for tumors ≤ 2 cm in diameter. METHODS: The subjects of this study were patients with PanNENs consecutively diagnosed at our hospital between January, 2000 and June, 2018. We analyzed 69 patients who underwent R0 resection of a non-functioning sporadic PanNEN with no distant metastasis, as well as 43 patients with tumors ≤ 20 mm in radiological diameter. RESULTS: Nineteen patients (27.5%), including 7 (16.3%) with a small PanNEN, had lymph node metastasis. A large radiological diameter, a high Ki67 index, and cyst formation correlated significantly with positive lymph node metastasis. In patients with tumors ≤ 20 mm in diameter, a high Ki67 index correlated significantly with lymph node metastasis. When we set the cut-off Ki67 index as 3.3%, 2 of 43 patients had lymph node metastasis. Tumors in the uncinate process readily metastasized to the region around the superior mesenteric artery. CONCLUSIONS: These findings suggest that a high Ki67 index indicates a risk of lymph node metastasis for tumors ≤ 20 mm in diameter and that lymphadenectomy should be performed in the region spatially adjacent to the primary tumor.

Pancreatic islet transplantation provides an effective treatment option for patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) with intractable impaired awareness of hypoglycemia and severe hypoglycemic events. Currently, the primary goal of islet transplantation should be excellent glycemic control without severe hypoglycemia, rather than insulin independence. Islet transplant recipients were less likely to achieve insulin independence, whereas solid pancreas transplant recipients substantially had greater procedure-related morbidity. Excellent therapeutic effects of islet transplantation as a result of accurate blood glucose level-reactive insulin secretion, which cannot be reproduced by current drug therapy, have been confirmed. Recent improvement of islet transplantation outcome has been achieved by refinement of the pancreatic islet isolation technique, improvement of islet engraftment method, and introduction of effective immunosuppressive therapy. A disadvantage of islet transplantation is that donors are essential, and donor shortage has become a hindrance to its development. With the development of alternative transplantation sites and new cell sources, including porcine islet cells and embryonic stem/induced pluripotent stem (ES/iPS)-derived β cells, "On-demand" and "Unlimited" cell therapy for T1D can be established.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the influence of donor age on recipient outcome after living-donor partial liver transplantation (LDLT). BACKGROUND: Donor age is a well-known prognostic factor in deceased donor liver transplantation; however, its role in LDLT remains unclear. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed 315 consecutive cases of primary adult-to-adult LDLT in our center between April 2006 and March 2014. Recipients were divided into 5 groups according to the donor age: D-20s (n = 60); D-30s (n = 72); D-40s (n = 57); D-50s (n = 94); and D-60s (n = 32). The recipient survival and the association with various clinical factors were investigated. RESULTS: Recipient survival proportions were significantly higher in D-20s compared with all the other groups (P = 0.008, < 0.001, < 0.001, and = 0.006, vs D-30s, -40s, -50s, and -60s, respectively), whereas there was no association between recipient survival and their own age. There are 3 typical relationships between donors and recipients in adult-to-adult LDLT: from child-to-parent, between spouses/siblings, and from parent-to-child. The overall survival in child-to-parent was significantly higher than in spouses/siblings (P = 0.002) and in parent-to-child (P = 0.005), despite significantly higher recipient age in child-to-parent [59 (42-69) years, P < 0.001]. Contrastingly, parent-to-child exhibited the lowest survival, despite the youngest recipient age [26 (20-43) years, P < 0.001]. In addition, younger donor age exhibited significantly better recipient survival both in hepatitis C virus-related and in non-hepatitis C virus diseases. Univariate and multivariate analyses both demonstrated that donor age and graft-type (right-sided livers) are independent prognostic factors for recipient survival. CONCLUSIONS: Donor age is an independent, strong prognostic factor in adult-to-adult LDLT.

Background: Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a progressive cholestatic liver disease, with liver transplantation being the sole life-saving treatment for end-stage PSC-related liver disease. However, recurrence of PSC after liver transplantation is a common complication, with the risk factors for recurrence being controversial. Methods: We conducted a retrospective chart review of 45 patients who had undergone liver transplantation for PSC at our institute. The risk factors for PSC recurrence and graft failure after liver transplantation were analyzed. Results: The graft survival rates were 55.4% at 5 years and 32.8% at 10 years after liver transplantation for PSC. PSC recurrence was diagnosed in 16 (40%) of 40 patients, at a median 30 months (range, 9-70 months) after liver transplantation. The cumulative incidence rate of PSC recurrence was 24.5% at 3 years, 39.3% at 5 years, and 45.8% at 6 years. Among the 16 patients diagnosed with PSC recurrence, the graft survival rate was 56.3% at 5 years, and 21.9% at 10 years after the recurrence. Active inflammatory bowel disease after liver transplantation was identified as an independent risk factor for PSC recurrence. Age younger than 30 years at the time of PSC diagnosis and bacteremia were factors significantly associated with graft failure after liver transplantation on multivariate analysis. Conclusions: PSC frequently recurred and progressed to graft failure after liver transplantation for PSC. Maintaining an inactive status of inflammatory bowel disease might offer protection against PSC recurrence.
