<h3>Importance</h3> Surgical resection has a potential benefit for patients with metastatic adenocarcinoma of the stomach and gastroesophageal junction. <h3>Objective</h3> To evaluate outcome in limited disease who receive chemotherapy first proceed to surgical resection. <h3>Design, Setting, Participants</h3> The AIO-FLOT3 (Arbeitsgemeinschaft Internistische Onkologie–fluorouracil, leucovorin, oxaliplatin, docetaxel) trial is prospective, phase 2 252 resectable or gastric junction...
Abstract Background This study assessed the outcomes of patients with a gastrointestinal stromal tumour (GIST) that ruptured before or during resection. Methods The records 23 (8 women, 15 men; median age 54 years) primary non-metastatic GIST were retrieved from database 554 patients. written surgical and pathology reports analysed. Review was performed in all cases, mutational analysis KIT platelet-derived growth factor α (PDGFRA) genes 21 Median follow-up 52 months. Results Tumour rupture...
Migrants from Eastern Europe constitute more than 5% of Germany's population. Since population health in their countries origin is poor status upon arrival may be worse that the native-born German (hypothesis H1). As a minority, they socio-economically disadvantaged (H2), and deteriorate quickly (H3). We compared data 1995 2000 for immigrants (n = 353) random sample age-matched Germans 2, 824) Socioeconomic Panel. tested H1-3 using satisfaction, as proxy status, socioeconomic indicators....
Abstract Background Despite obvious advances over the last decades, locally advanced adenocarcinomas of gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) still carry a dismal prognosis with overall 5-year survival rates less than 50% even when using modern optimized treatment protocols such as perioperative chemotherapy based on FLOT regimen or radiochemotherapy. Therefore question remains whether neoadjuvant radiochemotherapy is eliciting best results in patients GEJ cancer. Hence, an adequately powered...
The DRAGON 1 trial aims to assess training, implementation, safety and feasibility of combined portal- hepatic-vein embolization (PVE/HVE) accelerate future liver remnant (FLR) hypertrophy in patients with borderline resectable colorectal cancer metastases.The is a worldwide multicenter prospective single arm trial. primary endpoint composite the PVE/HVE, 90-day mortality, one year accrual monitoring each participating center. Secondary endpoints include: resection, used PVE HVE techniques,...
Introduction Oesophageal cancer is the seventh most frequently diagnosed and sixth leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Oesophagectomy remains main curative treatment option. The effect different surgical approaches (completely open, hybrid, completely minimally invasive robot-assisted) on patients undergoing thoracoabdominal oesophagectomy (Ivor-Lewis’s procedure) for oesophageal evaluated, focusing overall survival, postoperative mortality morbidity. Methods analysis A...
Abstract Purpose Infectious complications occur frequently after esophagectomy leading to prolonged hospital stay and increased costs. This study aimed analyze the pattern of infectious complications, spectrum associated microbiota, its impact on health system costs in patients who underwent for esophageal cancer. Methods All undergoing curative resection histologically confirmed cancer between January 2017 August 2022 were included. Patients’ survival was analyzed by Kaplan–Meier estimate....
Abstract Background Migration is a phenomenon of particular Public Health importance. Since 1990, almost 2 million ethnic Germans ( Aussiedler ) have migrated from the former Soviet Union (FSU) to Germany. This study compares their overall and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality that Germany's general population. Because high CVD in FSU low socio-economic status Germany, we hypothesize higher. Methods We conducted retrospective cohort for 1990–2002 with data 34,393 . assessed vital at...
