HMIO for oesophageal cancer, using laparoscopic gastric mobilization and open right thoracotomy, offered a substantial and independent protective effect against MPPCs, including ARDS, without compromising oncological outcomes.

Lesion diameter over 45 mm is the determinant parameter for guidance of patients to surgeons with more extensive experience.

The incidence of PHH significantly increased after RYGB but remained stable between 1 and 5 years. The estimation of beta-cell function with an OGTT before surgery can identify patients at risk for developing PHH after RYGB.
