TL;DR: Diagnostic computerized tomography and/or magnetic resonance imaging are indicated in all patients with cystic lesion of the pancreas and in lesions with a suspicion of malignancy, otherwise organ preserving procedures may be considered.
Journal ArticleDOI
Outcomes of Liver Transplantations Using Donations After Circulatory Death: A Single-Center Experience
Nicolas Meurisse,S Vanden Bussche,Ina Jochmans,J Francois,B Desschans,Wim Laleman,S. van der Merwe,W. Van Steenbergen,David Cassiman,Chris Verslype,R Aerts,Frederik Nevens,Jacques Pirenne,Diethard Monbaliu +13 more
TL;DR: Despite substantial ischemic injury (high peak AST and biliary strictures) short- and long-term survival after DCD-olT was comparable to DBD-OLT, and strategies to reduce biliary complications remain warranted.
Journal ArticleDOI
Septuagenarian and octogenarian donors provide excellent liver grafts for transplantation.
Tom Darius,Diethard Monbaliu,Ina Jochmans,Nicolas Meurisse,B Desschans,Willy Coosemans,Mina Komuta,Tania Roskams,David Cassiman,S. van der Merwe,W. Van Steenbergen,Chris Verslype,Wim Laleman,R Aerts,Frederik Nevens,Jacques Pirenne +15 more
TL;DR: Short and mid-term survival following OLT using livers from donors ≥ 70 yo can be excellent provided that there is adequate donor and recipient selection.
Journal ArticleDOI
Combined liver and lung transplantation with extended normothermic lung preservation in a patient with end-stage emphysema complicated by drug-induced acute liver failure.
Laurens J. Ceulemans,Diethard Monbaliu,Chris Verslype,S. van der Merwe,Wim Laleman,Robin Vos,Arne Neyrinck,H. Van Veer,P. De Leyn,Frederik Nevens,Jacques Pirenne,Geert Verleden,D. Van Raemdonck +12 more
TL;DR: Normothermic ex vivo lung perfusion may help to prolong preservation time, facilitating long‐distance transport and combined organ transplantation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Histamine-mediated potentiation of transient receptor potential (TRP) ankyrin 1 and TRP vanilloid 4 signaling in submucosal neurons in patients with irritable bowel syndrome.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the mucosal microenvironment in IBS contains mediators, such as histamine, which sensitize TRPV4 and TRPA1 via H1R activation, most likely contributing to increased visceral pain perception in Ibs.
