Introduction
Left pancreatectomy (LP) is a surgical technique with low mortality but high morbidity (30%), particularly pancreatic fistula (PF). Its minimally invasive (MI) approach has become popular, but its implementation in Spain remains unknown. We present a national multicenter study on LP to determine morbidity-mortality, PF incidence, and the percentage of MI approach.
Methods
A descriptive, observational, prospective, and multicenter study on LP. Study period: 02/01/2022–02/28/2023. Inclusion criteria: Elective LP. Exclusion criteria: LP following pancreaticoduodenectomy, with celiac trunk resection, or performed as an emergency. Major complications (MC): Clavien-Dindo ≥ IIIA.
Results
A total of 41 centers participated, including 313 patients. Women accounted for 53.4%. Mean age: 63.4 years. The most common indications for LP were neuroendocrine tumors (32.6%), pancreatic adenocarcinoma (28%), and IPMN (15.7%). The surgical approach was laparoscopic (53%), open (30.7%), and robotic (16.3%). The most frequently performed techniques were distal splenopancreatectomy (72.2%) and radical antegrade modular pancreatosplenectomy (RAMPS) (14.4%). Complications occurred in 57.5% of patients, with 21.1% classified as MC. The most frequent was PF (38.3%), with 52.5% of PFs classified as B-C (20.1% of the total). The 90-day mortality rate was 1.6%. The use of a protective sleeve and the absence of drains were associated with the absence of PF in multivariate analysis.
Conclusion
In our series, the MI approach was significantly higher than expected (70%). The MC rate was 21.1%, and mortality was 1.6%, confirming that LP is a procedure with low mortality but high morbidity.

Pelvic exenteration (PE) is a potentially curative surgical option for patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) or locally recurrent rectal cancer (LRRC) involving multivisceral structures. Originally conceived as a palliative procedure, advancements in surgical techniques and multidisciplinary management have broadened its indications, enabling R0 resections in over 60% of cases. Appropriate patient selection, based on advanced imaging and comprehensive functional assessment, is essential to optimize oncologic outcomes. Currently, the surgical indication is primarily determined by the reasonable possibility of achieving an R0 resection with acceptable morbidity in a suitable candidate, which may translate into high survival rates.
Surgical planning should follow a compartmental approach and require close collaboration among colorectal, urologic, gynecologic, vascular, orthopedic, plastic, and reconstructive surgeons. Urinary, gynecologic, vascular, osseous, and soft tissue reconstructions are tailored to the tumor's extent and the patient's individual needs. In selected cases, PE may be performed with palliative intent. Intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) and minimally invasive approaches have emerged as valuable adjuncts.
Long-term oncologic and functional outcomes are closely linked to the achievement of negative margins. While postoperative morbidity remains significant, mortality rates have declined in high-volume centers. Postoperative quality of life has become a key outcome, with increasing emphasis on patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) to guide clinical decision-making. PE continues to challenge traditional limits of resectability, offering renewed hope to carefully selected patients.

Skin-sparing or nipple-skin-sparing mastectomy (NSSM) with immediate reconstruction with a prepectoral implant is the procedure of choice for women with breast cancer or high risk for breast cancer who require a mastectomy. This procedure can be performed with endoscopic or robotic assistance, however, the complexity of the technique, the increase in surgical time and costs, as well as the lack of prospective studies with long-term follow-up have limited its implementation. The present study aims to evaluate the non-inferiority of NSSM with endoscopic support compared to open NSSM in terms of feasibility and safety of the technique, oncological safety and cosmetic sequelae.

Introduction
Cervical esophageal stenosis is a complex surgical problem when endoscopic treatment fails. The distance between the stenosis and the dental arch (DA) determines the need for a longer flap, with an increased risk of ischemia.
Our group proposed the use of an esophageal advancement jejunoplasty (JAE) in patients with esophageal stenosis less than 17 centimeters from the DA to «lengthen» the residual esophagus and, in a second stage, complete the reconstruction of digestive transit with a gastroplasty or coloplasty.
Method
Descriptive and retrospective analysis of a prospective database of patients who had esophageal stenosis less than 17 centimeters from the DA, who were indicated a JAE between November 2020 and May 2024.
Results
A total of 16 patients with a mean age of 52 years were included. In 13 cases the stenosi was secundary to càustics and 3 to radiotherapy; the mean distance between AD and stenosis was 14 cm. Five cases were reoperated and 2 esophageal-jejunal fístulas were diagnosed. There was no mortality. The second stage of reconstruction was completed in 10 patients (5 gastroplasties and 5 coloplasties). Two jejuno-ileal stenosis and one esophageal-jejunal stenosis were diagnosed. Functionally, 5 patients are exclusively nourished orally, 2 through a mixed diet and 3 exclusively enterally.
Conclusion
We believe that JAE can be a technically feasible option, with acceptable morbidity, in patients with upper esophageal stenosis to minimize the risk of ischemia that involves a longer flap.
