Predicting Lymph Node Metastasis in Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma
Tsilimigras, DI; Sahara, K; Paredes, AZ; Moro, A; Mehta, R; Moris, D; Guglielmi, A; Aldrighetti, L; Weiss, M; Bauer, TW; Alexandrescu, S; Poultsides, GABackground: The objective of the current study was to develop a model to predict the likelihood of occult lymph node metastasis (LNM) prior to resection of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC). Methods: Patients who underwent hepatectomy for ICC between 2000 and 2017 were identified using a multi-institutional database. A novel model incorporating clinical and preoperative imaging data was developed to predict...
Tumor Burden Dictates Prognosis Among Patients Undergoing Resection of Intrahep...
Tsilimigras, DI; Hyer, JM; Paredes, AZ; Moris, D; Sahara, K; Guglielmi, A; Aldrighetti, L; Weiss, M; Bauer, TW; Alexandrescu, S; Poultsides, GAIntroduction: While tumor burden (TB) has been associated with outcomes among patients with hepatocellular carcinoma, the role of overall TB in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) remains poorly defined. Methods: Patients undergoing curative-intent resection of ICC between 2000 and 2017 were identified from a multi-institutional database. The impact of TB on overall (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) was ev...
Hospital Variation in Textbook Outcomes Following Curative-Intent Resection of ...
Tsilimigras, D; Mehta, R; Merath, K; Bagante, F; Paredes, AZ; Farooq, A; Ratti, F; Pinto Marques, H; Silva, S; Soubrane, O; Lam, V; Poultsides, GBackground: Composite measures such as "Textbook Outcome" (TO) may be superior to individual quality metrics to assess surgical care and hospital performance. However, the incidence and factors associated with TO after resection of HCC remain poorly defined. Methods: Hospital variation in the rates of TO, factors associated with achieving a TO and the impact of TO on long-term survival following resection for H...
