Adequate volume reduction can be accomplished by laparoscopic means with acceptable postoperative morbidity.Background Several local ablative modalities have been introduced for the treatment of locally advanced pancreatic cancer (LAPC). However, there is no consensus on how to evaluate the imaging response after treatment. A systematic review was performed regarding the use of imaging for response assessment in LAPC. Methods A systematic literature search was conducted in PubMed. Studies reporting imaging outcomes were included in the review. Studies were excluded if the imaging outcomes could not be differentiated between different disease stages, tumor histology or surgical approaches. Results Thirty-four studies were included in the analysis. Fourteen studies used standardized response criteria, while six studies did not report the response evaluation method. The rest used self-determined criteria, absolute size comparisons or similar methods. One study found a correlation between early systemic progression ( less then 6 months) and overall survival. Conclusion There was notable variation in the use of imaging for response assessment in LAPC. This significantly hinders cross-comparison of results among studies. There is currently only sparse evidence of an association between imaging responses and overall survival. The field calls for standardized recommendations regarding the choice of response assessment method, timing of scans, target definition and reporting of outcomes.The pathogenesis of portal hypertension differs in patients with small for size syndrome (SFSS) after living donor liver transplantation (LDLT) and postoperative liver failure (POLF) after liver resection. This difference has important implications in the
