Abstract Right-sided colon cancer (RCC) and left-sided (LCC) differ in features outcomes because of variations embryology, epidemiology, pathology, prognosis. This study sought to identify significant factors impacting patient survival through Bayesian modelling. Data was retrospectively analysed from a colorectal neoplasia database. on demographics, perioperative risks, treatment, mortality, patients who underwent surgery January 2010 December 2021. involved 2475 patients, with 58.7% having...
Surgery in the very elderly is a topic that has not been well studied, despite steady rise this population. With population, there now discussion on safety of surgery cohort for colorectal cancer.The purpose study was to investigate elective and nonelective cancer outcomes patients aged ≥90 years at both private public hospitals Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.This retrospective analysis who were included prospectively maintained Cabrini Monash University Department neoplasia database entered...
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second leading cause of death worldwide. To improve outcomes for these patients, we need to develop new treatment strategies. Personalized medicine, where patients are treated based on characteristics their own tumor, has gained significant interest its promise and reduce unnecessary side effects. The purpose this study was examine potential utility patient-derived colorectal organoids (PDCOs) in a personalized medicine setting.
There are approximately 1.3 million patients in Australia with diabetes. Conflicting reports exist the literature as to effect of diabetes on outcomes colorectal cancer patients. We hypothesized that would have poorer perioperative outcomes, and was an independent risk factor for both 30-day mortality morbidity. The aim this study assess impact surgery compared a diabetes-free reference population, examine factors affecting risk. conducted analysis prospectively collected, clinician-led...
In 2019, in Australia, there were 500,000 people aged 85 and over. Traditionally, clinicians have adopted the view that surgery is not desirable this cohort due to increasing perioperative risk, perceived minimal clinical benefit, shortened life expectancy. This study aimed at investigating postoperative outcomes from elective non-elective colorectal cancer patients 80 over.A retrospective analysis was conducted on 2010 2020 a prospectively maintained database. Patients over who underwent...
This study aimed to investigate whether an extracorporeal side-to-side (SS) or end-to-side (ES) stapled anastomosis impacts short-term and long-term outcomes after oncological laparoscopic right hemicolectomy.A retrospective cohort of prospectively collected data from two Victorian tertiary referral hospitals was performed. Patients who underwent resection for colorectal cancer between February 2010 September 2020 were selected the neoplasia database. divided into groups depending on type...
<b><i>Introduction:</i></b> Opioid analgesia remains the mainstay of postoperative pain management strategies despite being associated with many adverse effects. A specific opioid-free protocol was designed to limit opioid usage. <b><i>Objective:</i></b> The aim study audit rate within this and identify factors that might contribute surgery. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> retrospective all elective patients receiving abdominal...
Anastomotic leak after restorative surgery for rectal cancer is a major complication and may lead to worse long-term oncological survival outcomes.The purpose of this study was identify risk factors associated with anastomotic assess the perioperative impact in our cohort patients cancer.A retrospective analysis performed on data from prospectively maintained Cabrini Monash colorectal neoplasia database. Patients who had undergone resection subsequently received anastomosis between November...
Background Training in medicine and surgery has been a public hospital responsibility Australia. Increasing specialist training needs led to pressure on speciality societies find additional posts, with one utilized solution being the establishment of private training. This growing use despite no previously published evaluations article seeks evaluate feasibility surgical hospitals appendicectomy. Methods Data were prospectively collected registrar involvement appendicectomy cases at single...
Abstract Backgrounds Magnetic resonance imaging is the primary method for local staging in rectal cancer patients. Administration of intravenous (IV) hyoscine butylbromide thought to improve accuracy, but there are contraindications and potential adverse effects. The aim was assess efficacy IV on accuracy MRI T2 T3 cancers. Methods A retrospective cohort study carried out patients prospectively recorded Cabrini Monash colorectal neoplasia database. total 74 (53 males, 21 females) pelvis...
Colorectal surgical procedures can have a significant impact on quality-of-life (QoL), functional and symptom outcomes. This retrospective study conducted in tertiary care center evaluated the influence of four colorectal patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs).512 patients undergoing neoplasia surgery between June 2015 December 2017 were identified via Cabrini Monash Neoplasia database. Primary outcomes measured mean changes PROMs following utilizing International Consortium Health...
Abdominoperineal resection (APR) is associated with a poorer oncological outcome than anterior resection. This may be due to higher rates of intra-operative perforation and circumferential margin involvement. The aim this study was audit our short long-term results abdominoperineal performed using conventional techniques compare other published series.A retrospective review all patients who had standard APR between January 2000 December 2016 in single institution, Cabrini Hospital,...
Abstract: Transanal total mesorectal excision (taTME) is a relatively new technique that slowly being disseminated amongst the colorectal and general surgical community. It promises technically more feasible dissection of distal rectum mesorectum, especially in those who are male or obese. As with any technique, risk existing complications needs to be carefully considered. This article will describe both clinically relevant complications, as well tips avoid these pitfalls.
Transanal total mesorectal excision (TaTME) is the latest in a long list of developments surgical treatment low rectal cancer. This article describes evolution technique, brief summation technical procedure, current literature into its results, and possible future direction that it might take. It authors’ opinion TaTME will form another technique within modern colorectal surgeon’s armament.
