Neorectal prolapse following proctectomy for cancer has seldom been reported and treatment has mostly consisted in the resection of the prolapse via a perineal approach. Management of a patient with n...
The aim of this study was to describe our initial surgical and functional outcomes of transanal ileal pouch anastomosis (Ta-IPAA) in adolescents....
A total of 16 adolescents' age ≤ 19 underwent consecutive Ta-IPAA on the indication ulcerative colitis (UC) or familiar adenomatous polyposis (FAP), between January 2018 and September 2022. Primary ou...
Thirteen adolescents with UC and three with FAP underwent Ta-IPAA. The median age of UC patients was 16. They had a colectomy on the indication UC followed by a Ta-IPAA. Median operating time was 247 ...
Ta-IPAA approach in children seems to be feasible, safe and offers acceptable functional results....
Total neoadjuvant therapy is an alternative to neoadjuvant chemoradiation alone for rectal cancer and has the benefits of more completion of planned therapy, increased downstaging, earlier treatment o...
The study aimed to determine the impact of total neoadjuvant therapy on postoperative complications compared with neoadjuvant chemoradiation alone....
Retrospective cohort study....
Single tertiary referral center....
The patient included was a stage II/III rectal cancer patient who underwent total neoadjuvant therapy or long-course neoadjuvant chemoradiation followed by surgical resection from 2018-2020....
The main outcome measures included severe postoperative complications (Clavien-Dindo grade ≥3)....
Of 181 patients, 86 (47.5%) underwent total neoadjuvant therapy and 95 (52.5%) underwent neoadjuvant chemoradiation. There was no difference in severe postoperative complications or any complications....
Selection bias uncontrolled by modeling....
We found no difference in risk of postoperative complications between patients who received total neoadjuvant therapy vs neoadjuvant chemoradiation. Total neoadjuvant therapy patients had longer opera...
ANTECEDENTES:La terapia neoadyuvante total es una alternativa a la quimiorradiación neoadyuvante sola para el cáncer de recto y tiene los beneficios de una mayor finalización de la terapia planificada...
The background of this study is to evaluate the impact of the assistant surgeon's in robotic-assisted proctectomy (RAP) on perioperative outcomes. A retrospective analysis of all patients who underwen...
Delayed coloanal anastomosis (DCAA) is a two-stage procedure. DCAA has been increasingly reused in recent years in the management of rectal cancer. Such increased use of DCAA has highlighted the compl...
All patients who underwent a proctectomy with a DCAA were included in this retrospective single-centre study from November 2012 to June 2022. Two groups of patients were defined: patients with a well ...
During the study period, 43 patients underwent DCAA. Amongst them, 32 (75%) had a well-vascularized colonic stump (well-vascularized group) and 11 (25%) ischemia of the colonic stump (ischemic group)....
This study highlights clear risk factors for ischemia/necrosis of the colonic stump after proctectomy with DCAA....
A laparoscopic approach generally provides several benefits in patients who undergo colon or rectal surgery without jeopardizing oncological outcomes. However, there is a paucity of studies on compara...
From patients with colorectal disease who underwent surgery between 2008 and 2022 at our hospital, we collected 69 consecutive patients who had previous colorectal surgery for this retrospective study...
Four patients (11%) of the Lap group needed conversion to laparotomy. The intraoperative blood loss was lower in the Lap group than the Op group (median: 45 ml vs. 205 ml, p = 0.001). The time to firs...
Laparoscopic surgery appeared feasible and beneficial for selected patients undergoing second colorectal resection after colectomy or proctectomy regarding blood loss and bowel function recovery witho...
Although several studies compare the clinical outcomes and costs of laparoscopic and robotic proctectomy, most of them reflect the outcomes of the utilisation of older generation robotic platforms. Th...
Consecutive patients undergoing laparoscopic and robotic proctectomy between January 2017 and June 2020 in a public quaternary centre were included. Demographic characteristics, baseline clinical, tum...
During the study period, 113 patients underwent minimally invasive proctectomy. Of these, 81 (71.7%) underwent a robotic proctectomy. A robotic approach was associated with a lower conversion rate (2....
Robotic proctectomy was associated with increased theatre costs but not with increased overall inpatient costs within a public healthcare setting. Conversion was less common for robotic proctectomy at...
Robotic-assisted proctectomy (RAP) has emerged as the predominant surgical approach for patients with rectal cancer in recent years; although good postoperative patient recovery with accurate predicti...
This study used the electronic health records of 506 RAP participants, including a National Specialist Center for da Vinci Robotic Colorectal Surgery (NSCVRCS) meta cohort, and an independent external...
The consistent evaluation of discrimination, calibration, generalization, and prognostic value across cohorts reaffirmed the accuracy and robust extrapolation capability of this system. The 10 feature...
This study introduces a promising and informative tool, the RAP-AIscore, which can be explained through nomograms for interpreting clinical outcomes. It facilitates postoperative risk stratification m...
Current recommendations suggest that a minimum of 12 lymph nodes (LNs) should be harvested during curative rectal cancer resection. We aimed to assess predictors and survival outcomes of harvesting < ...
A retrospective case-control analysis of factors associated with harvesting < 12 LNs in rectal cancer surgery was conducted. Data were derived from the National Cancer Database 2010-2019. Univariate a...
67,529 patients (60.8% male; mean age: 61.2 ± 12.5 years) were included. Median number of harvested LNs was 15 (IQR: 11-20); 27.1% of patients had < 12 harvested LNs. Independent predictors of harvest...
Older age, open resection, and neoadjuvant therapy were independent predictors of < 12 harvested LNs. Conversely, higher clinical TNM stage and tumor grade, coloanal anastomosis, and minimally invasiv...
Our group investigates objective performance indicators (OPIs) to analyze robotic colorectal surgery. Analyses of OPI data are difficult in dual-console procedures (DCPs) as there is currently no reli...
A colorectal surgeon and fellow reviewed 21 unedited, dual-console proctectomy videos with no information to identify the operating surgeons. The reviewers watched a small number of random tasks and a...
A total of 1811 individual surgical tasks were recorded during 21 proctectomy videos. A median of 6.5 random tasks (137 total) were reviewed during each video, and the remainder of task assignments we...
We developed and validated rEOM as an accurate, efficient, and scalable OPI to assign individual surgical tasks to appropriate surgeons during DCPs. This new resource will be useful to everyone involv...
