DIStal gastriC Bypass OUtcome in Revision SurgEry After Roux-en-y Gastric Bypass
This study is designed as a prospective multicenter randomized controlled clinical trial comparing two surgical techniques of distal gastric bypass (DGB) in revisional surgery following failed Roux-en-Y gastric bypass. Patients will be randomly allocated 1:1 to A) DGB with lengthening of the BPL (DGB type I) or B) DGB with …
Preoperative Teriparatide Use on Insertional Torque of Pedicle Screws for Lumbar Fusion Surgery
This project aims to investigate any difference of insertional torque strength for osteoporotic patients with preoperative 1-month teriparatide injections versus those without. The increased insertional torque of pedicle screws during surgery after only 1 month of teriparatide use has also been studied. However, the effect of teriparatide on vertebral body …

Feasibility of Endosphenoidal Coil Placement for Imaging of the Sella During Transsphenoidal Surgery
Background Pituitary tumors can cause problems by secreting hormones in the body. They can also problems by growing large and pushing on organs near the pituitary gland. The best treatment for such tumors is to remove them by surgery. But that may be sometimes difficult. Some tumors maybe too small …
Neoadjuvant Chemoimmunotherapy Followed By Radiation Or Organ Preservation Surgery In Laryngeal/Hypopharyngeal Cancer

The reason the investigators are conducting this study is because females who have undergone breast radiation are at higher risk of wound complications following …
Early Aortic vaLve surgEry Versus wAtchful waitiNg Strategy in Severe Asymptomatic aOrtic reguRgitation
The optimal timing of surgical intervention in asymptomatic patients with severe aortic regurgitation remains controversial. As per cardiac magnetic resonance assessment, early surgical treatment will be compared with conventional guideline-based strategy in asymptomatic patients with severe aortic regurgitation.
Testing the Use of Chemotherapy After Surgery for High-Risk Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumors
This phase II trial studies the effect of capecitabine and temozolomide after surgery in treating patients with high-risk well-differentiated pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. Chemotherapy drugs, such as capecitabine and temozolomide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, …
