״Liver resection has an excellent oncologic effectiveness, even in patients with severe tumor burden״
In the context of evolving management options for colorectal liver metastases besides surgery, this study proposes standard reference values for oncologic treatments to serve as benchmarks when evaluating alternative treatments.

#Rise of the #Robots 🦾 in the Netherlands 🇳🇱 GI surgery @AnnalsofSurgery 😳 How does this compare to your country? Data? Nationwide use 🦾 per organ among 77,361 resections (2014-2023): ✅ pancreas 1% to 33% ✅ thoracic 3% to 11% ✅ colon 6% to 14% ✅ rectum 19% to 45% ✅

In #ClinicalTrial EA2222/PUMP, investigators are testing #PumpChemo in addition to SOC chemo versus SOC chemo alone for patients with unresectable #ColorectalCancer liver metastases. For more: https://t.co/xBChV6GALe cc : @michael_lidsky

Breaking news! Pump vs transplant is no longer a debate❤️. The parties (dr. Kingham and dr. Chapman) have come to agreement - transplant perfectly fits where #HAIP chemo fails. @villesallinen @graokane can be congratulated as peacemakers #eahpba2025 @xtofero @pdline

The struggle is real. And CD grade 3 is enough to ruin my day.
Early-career surgeons face high vulnerability to moral injury from complications and poor outcomes. Building “protective equity” through mentorship and peer support may mitigate long-term harm. https://t.co/A3VyYgtBMj

Successful first two cases of #HAIP at @MontefioreNYC. Great team work #MECCC. Great support from @MontefioreSurg leadership. This essential component of contemporary multidisciplinary care for CRLM & IHC is now available in the Bronx.

Very true. Working towards change @MontefioreSurg surgical oncology and #MECCC
Despite the 'Hispanic Paradox,' hepatobiliary and gastric cancers are rising among Hispanic individuals 📈🏥. Late diagnoses and barriers to surgical care worsen outcomes. Surgeons have a role in closing these gaps. https://t.co/h696WgKKR3

An honor and a privilege. HAIP coming soon to the Bronx.
So honored to have Dr. Nancy Kemeny give the Blumgart Historical Lecture at #AHPBA2025 Inspiring to see the history and evolution of #HAI⛽️ tx for mCRC and #cholangiocarcinoma Amazed to see just a sample of the sheer # of Surg fellows trained in this life-saving 🎁 to pts.

Neoadjuvant chemotherapy for left 👈 sided resectable PDAC 🪡 72% of US received adjuvant 💉 NAT had better OS (53 🆚 37 months) 🤏 Tumor size and 🧪 elevated CA19.9 correlates with benefits of NAT And now… time for RCT! 💪 https://t.co/AgCYbVGrpt
