To determine whether patients from regional areas undergoing surgery for kidney cancer present with more advanced disease as a result of geographic isolation.Retrospective analysis 221 renal cell carcinoma (RCC) January 2004 to June 2012, both metropolitan centre and large inner hospital. Data was collected on age, gender, presentation (incidental or symptomatic), clinical stage pathological features. The Australian Standard Geographical Classification-Remoteness Area (ASGC-RA) is system...
The Cook-Swartz implantable Doppler probe (Cook Medical(®), Cook Ireland Ltd., Limerick, Ireland) has evolved as a useful option for postoperative free flap monitoring. For placement, the either is left unattached around venous pedicle or secured. In our experience with over 300 applications, we typically secure cuff two small microclips, use fibrin glue. These techniques require redundant silicone apposition; however, have encountered some vessels that are of sufficiently large diameter to...
Objective: The Transatlantic Australasian Retroperitoneal Sarcoma Working Group conducted a retrospective study on the disease course and clinical management of ganglioneuromas. Background: Ganglioneuromas are rare tumors derived from neural crest cells. Data these remain limited to case reports single-institution series. Methods: Patients all ages with pathologically confirmed primary retroperitoneal, intra-abdominal, pelvic ganglioneuromas between January 1, 2000, 2020, were included. We...
Background: Inflammation in surgical sepsis and stress frequently causes anaemia, leading to increased rates of blood transfusions. Recent evidence shows that transfusions carry a greater risk for short- long-term complications than previously thought. Objective: To review the role erythropoietin (EPO), iron and/or steroids as an alternative treatment critically ill patients. Methodology: A systematic was prepared from recent literature on inflammation-induced anaemia septic patient roles...
While surgery remains the mainstay of treatment for limb sarcoma, extreme old age is a relative contraindication to oncological surgery.Patients >80 years referred with primary extremity soft-tissue sarcoma (ESTS) between 2007 and 2016 were retrospectively reviewed. Prognostic variables, including ASA status Clinical Frailty Scores, collected. Endpoints perioperative morbidity, locoregional (LRR) distant recurrence (DR), disease-specific survival (DSS) adjusted using competing risk...

The introduction of well-vascularized flaps for infected sternotomy wound reconstruction has improved mortality rates dramatically. Multiple variations the pectoralis major flap have been described in this context. However, unresolved limitations include poor cosmesis and problematic coverage inferior third wound. We describe an approach to address these issues. humeral attachments are preserved bilateral muscles advanced a limited fashion. left sternocostal head is medially rotated...
