Article Abstract

In candidates for hepatectomy, different techniques to induce liver hypertrophy and modulate the future liver remnant are available. However, their use in specific clinical scenarios is highly heterogeneous and there is no consensus about minimal safety standards needed to incorporate these strategies into routine clinical practice. The aim of this position paper was to summarize newly available evidence in the field and compare medical practice among different hepatobiliary surgical units to evaluate the transformative potential of liver hypertrophy techniques in surgical oncology. This paper sets the stage for a future structured consensus on the application of liver hypertrophy techniques before hepatectomy.

Purpose: Standard methods for percutaneous transhepatic portal vein embolization have not yet been established. This study aimed to elucidate the effectiveness of balloon occlusion in percutaneous transhepatic portal vein embolization using gelatin sponges on the hypertrophy ratio of the future liver remnant volume.

Material And Methods: This retrospective study included 93 patients who underwent percutaneous transhepatic portal vein embolization for right hepatectomy between January 2018 and September 2022.

Background: Individuals born after intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) have a higher risk of developing metabolic syndrome (MetS) in adulthood. In a rat model, male IUGR offspring exhibit MetS features-including elevated systolic blood pressure, glucose intolerance, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, and increased visceral adipose tissue (VAT)-by 6 months of age. Female offspring, however, do not.

Aims: Experimental evidence suggests an important role for sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) and its generating enzymes sphingosine kinase 1/2 (SphK1/2) in obesity. We and others have shown that plasma S1P levels are elevated in obese mice and humans. Preclinical studies suggest that genetic SphK2 ablation in mice protects from age- and diet-induced obesity and metabolic dysfunction.

It is now widely accepted that the development of neurodegenerative diseases depends on and affects many pathological processes, both in the brain and the periphery. Inflammatory, cardiovascular, metabolic, cerebrovascular, autoimmune, and other environmental factors have been extensively studied and shown to contribute notably to the onset, pathogenesis, and clinical outcome of Alzheimer´s disease (AD), Parkinson´s disease (PD), cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA), multiple sclerosis, and other neurological disorders. Likewise, AD-induced changes in other tissues outside the central nervous system, such as abnormalities observed in the liver, spleen, or lungs, have been documented and extensively studied, leading to a better understanding of brain-periphery crosstalk in neurodegenerative diseases and the development of novel diagnostic and therapeutic approaches.

Mauriac syndrome (MS) is a rare condition linked to inadequate glycemic control in type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) and has also rarely been reported in patients with neonatal diabetes. MS manifests as growth failure, delayed puberty, cushingoid features, and hepatomegaly. The condition can be associated with complications like dyslipidemia, retinopathy, and nephropathy.
