Cox model indicated no difference in OS associated with algorithm deviation (HR 1.19, p = 0.58) when controlling for age and tumor characteristics. Conclusion This literature-based algorithm helps standardize treatment protocols in patients with LG-NELM and can reduce cost and risk by minimizing unnecessary procedures. Prospective implementation and validation is required.Background The aim of this study was to determine the incidence of incisional hernia (IH) in a population-based cohort following gallstone surgery and to identify associated risk factors. Methods All cholecystectomies registered in the Swedish register for cholecystectomy and ERCP from 2006 to 2014 were identified. Data regarding post-procedural development of IH was obtained from the National Patient Register. Results A total of 81 964 cholecystectomies were identified. A laparoscopic, open, and minilaparotomy technique was used in 70 031, 10 379 and 1554 procedures, respectively. The five-year cumulative incidence of IH was 1.04 per cent in the laparoscopic group, 3.37 per cent in the open group, and 2.11 per cent in the minilaparotomy group. Obesity (hazard ratio (HR) 4.11, 95 per cent confidence interval [CI] 3.37 to 5.01), open surgical technique (HR 2.97, CI 2.57 to 3.42), liver cirrhosis (HR 2.95, CI 1.58 to 5.51), chronic kidney disease (HR 1.95, CI 1.19 to 3.21), minilaparotomy (HR 1.79, CI 1.23 to 2.60), age > median (HR 1.43, CI 1.25 to 1.65), and chronic pulmonary disease (HR 1.28, CI 1.05 to 1.57) were found to significantly predict the development of IH. Conclusion Laparoscopic cholecystectomy comes with a lower risk of IH compared to open techniques.Embryonic boundaries were first described in Drosophila, and then in vertebrate embryos, as cellular interfaces between compartments. They display signaling properties and in vertebrates might allocate cells fated to different anatomical structures, or cells that will
