Abstract Background Transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) has been proposed as an approach in patients with mid and low rectal cancer. The TaTME procedure introduced the Netherlands a structured training pathway, including proctoring. This study evaluated local recurrence rate during implementation phase of TaTME. Methods Oncological outcomes first ten procedures each 12 participating centres were collected part external audit implementation. Data from cohort treated over prolonged...
Abstract Background Transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) for mid and low rectal cancer has been shown to improve short-term outcomes, mostly due lower conversion rates with improved quality of the specimen. However, robust long-term oncological data supporting encouraging clinical pathological outcomes are lacking. Methods All consecutive patients undergoing TaTME curative intent or in two referral centers The Netherlands between January 2012 April 2016 a complete minimum follow-up 36...
Abstract Background Adequate MRI-based staging of early rectal cancers is essential for decision-making in an era organ-conserving treatment approaches. The aim this population-based study was to determine the accuracy routine daily MRI cancer, whether or not combined with endorectal ultrasonography (ERUS). Methods Patients cT1–2 cancer who underwent local excision total mesorectal (TME) without downsizing (chemo)radiotherapy between 1 January 2011 and 31 December 2018 were selected from...
Transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) is a new complex technique with potential to improve the quality of surgical for patients mid and low rectal cancer. The procedure technically challenging has shown be associated relative long learning curve which might hamper widespread adoption. Therefore, national structured training pathway TaTME been set up in Netherlands allow safe implementation. aim this study was monitor safety efficacy program 12 centers. Short-term outcomes first ten...
<h3>Importance</h3> To date, no randomized clinical trials have investigated perioperative systemic therapy relative to cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS-HIPEC) alone for resectable colorectal peritoneal metastases (CPM). <h3>Objective</h3> assess the feasibility safety of in patients with CPM response neoadjuvant treatment. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> An open-label, parallel-group phase 2 trial all 9 Dutch tertiary centers surgical treatment...
Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) results in glucose-lowering patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and may be associated increased intestinal glucose excretion. However, the contribution of excretion to glycemic control after RYGB its underlying mechanisms are not fully elucidated. Here, we confirmed that significantly obese rats RYGB, which was negatively correlated postoperative blood levels. Moreover, also found Biliopancreatic limb length, an important factor affecting improvement...
Abstract Aim Transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) has been suggested as a potential solution for the resection of challenging mid and low rectal cancer. This relatively complex procedure implemented in many centres over last years, despite absence long‐term safety data. Recently, concern arisen because an increase local recurrence implementation phase. The aim this study was to assess correlation between accumulated experience recurrences. Method An independent clinical researcher...
Abstract Aim The high morbidity associated with radical resection for rectal cancer is an incentive surgeons to adopt strategies aimed at organ preservation, particularly early disease. There are a number of different approaches achieve this. In this study we have collated current national and international guidelines produce synopsis support changing practice. Method PubMed, Embase, Trip, National Guideline Clearinghouse BMJ Best Practice databases were interrogated. Guidelines published...
The aim of this study was to develop an objective and reliable surgical quality assurance system (SQA) for COLOR III, international multicenter randomized controlled trial (RCT) comparing transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) with laparoscopic approach rectal cancer.SQA influences outcome measures in RCTs such as lymph nodes harvest, in-hospital mortality, locoregional cancer recurrence. However, levels SQA are variable.Hierarchical task analysis TaTME performed. A 4-round Delphi...
Background: Transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) is potentially the answer to refractory challenges in rectal cancer surgery. The surgical dissection deep pelvis facilitated by a down up approach with modern laparoscopic techniques. Potential benefits are decrease short-term morbidity including anastomotic leakages, conversion and colostomy rate, better quality of specimens less R1 rates. Long-term oncological outcome data lacking needs be reviewed thoroughly. Initial (comparative)...
We present the case of a 57-year-old man who had suffered pain in left hemithorax for year, which started after period severe coughing during pneumonia. The was triggered by lying down. A computed tomography scan revealed two nonunion costal fractures. In operating room, intercostal diastasis with pulmonary herniation encountered addition to This report describes technique used reconstruct thoracic wall mesh and plate-osteosynthesis.
Abstract Background Abdominoperineal excision (APE) for rectal cancer is associated with a relatively high risk of positive margins and postoperative morbidity, particularly related to perineal wound healing problems. It unknown whether the use minimally invasive approach part these procedures can improve outcomes without oncological compromise. The aim this study was evaluate feasibility transperineal abdominoperineal (TpAPE) Methods This multicenter retrospective cohort included all...
In early rectal cancer, organ sparing treatment strategies such as local excision have gained popularity. The necessity of radical surgery is based on the histopathological evaluation specimen. This study aimed to describe diagnostic variability between pathologists, and its impact allocation in patients with locally excised cancer.
