🔪 Two-Stage Hepatectomy (TSH)
A key option for initially irresectable colorectal liver metastases.

🩺 Stage-1: Debulk tumors + allow liver regeneration.

🩸 Stage-2: Remove remaining disease after FLR hypertrophy.

✅ Feasible in ~80%, offering long-term survival & potential cure.

Neutrophils form extracellular traps in response to Opisthorchis viverrini crude antigens, which are elevated in neutrophils from opisthorchiasis patients with hepatobiliary abnormalities

Summary: This paper provides novel findings regarding a formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) in response to liver fluke Opisthorchis viverrini crude antigens exposure. We found for the first time that neutrophil extracellular traps can be formed in neutrophils from parasite free individuals, and the level of these traps are associated with the hepatobiliary abnormalities in opisthorchiasis patients.
