Purpose The presence of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in tumors is superior to conventional pathologic staging predicting patient outcome. However, their does not define TIL functionality. Here we developed an assay that tests cytotoxicity patients with locally advanced rectal cancer before definitive treatment, identifying those who will obtain a complete response (pCR). We also used the demonstrate rescue function after checkpoint inhibition blockade (CIB). Patients and Methods...
Physical activity (PA) is important for cancer survivors. Trials of remotely delivered interventions are needed to assist in reaching under-served non-metropolitan The objective this study was ascertain whether wearable technology, coupled with health coaching effective increasing PA breast and colorectal survivors living regional remote areas Australia. Cancer from 5 states were randomized intervention control arms. Intervention participants given a Fitbit Charge 2TM received up 6 telephone...
The study examined whether increased physical activity (PA) in nonmetropolitan cancer survivors was maintained 12 weeks following the PPARCS intervention.
Abstract Aim To explore the feasibility and safety of robotic beyond total mesorectal excision (TME) surgery for primary recurrent pelvic malignancy. Methods Patients undergoing TME resections or malignancy between July 2015 2021 in a public quaternary private tertiary centre were included. Demographic clinical data recorded outcomes analysed. Results Twenty‐four patients (50% males) included, with median age 58 (45–70.8) years, BMI 26 (24.3–28.1) kg/m 2 . Indication was rectal...
Mesenteric panniculitis (MP) is a chronic inflammatory process of the small bowel mesentery that has been reported in conjunction with malignancy. The objectives present study were to identify frequency and type cancers may coexist MP whether these can be seen on initial diagnostic computerised tomography (CT).A prospective database was kept patients diagnosed Canterbury region New Zealand between 1 January 2003 31 December 2014. CT scans independently reviewed. Clinical records reviewed...
Abstract Background Despite reports of increasing adoption robotics in colorectal surgery worldwide, data regarding its uptake Australasia are lacking. This study examines the trends robotic Australia during last 10 years. Methods Data from patients undergoing with da Vinci platform between 2010 and 2019 were obtained. Overall, numbers specific procedures across obtained Medicare Benefit Schedule over same period. Pearson's correlation analysis was used to determine statistical overall time....
Abstract Background Although currently limited, the requirement for colorectal trainees to attain skills in robotic surgery is likely increase due further utilization of platforms globally. The aim study describe training programme utilized and assess outcomes fellowship surgery. Methods A structured was generated across a tertiary hospital setting. Review four prospectively maintained fellow operative logbooks performed caseload skill acquisition. Operative patient‐related were compared...
Pregnancy and caesarean section are known to predispose the development of acute colonic pseudo-obstruction (ACPO), a rare form functional ileus distal large bowel. Pathogenesis ACPO is likely influenced by pregnancy childbirth subsequent changes hormonal, autonomic metabolic physiology. Identifying risk factors will assist with early identification, as insidious onset postpartum often leads delayed diagnosis bowel ischaemia, perforation sepsis.To establish associated after section.A...
Abstract Aim Currently, there is no clear consensus on the role of extended pelvic resections for locally advanced or recurrent disease involving major vascular structures. The aims this study were to report outcomes consecutive patients undergoing malignancy aortoiliac axis. Methods Prospective data collected having radical malignancies, with axis involvement, requiring en bloc resection and reconstruction, at a single institution between 2014 2018. Results Eleven included (median age 60...
Abstract Pelvic exenteration (PE) is a technically challenging surgical procedure. More recently, quality of life and survivorship following PEs are being increasingly acknowledged as important patient outcomes. This includes evaluating major long-term complications such hernias, defined the protrusion internal organs through facial defect (The PelvEx Collaborative in Br J Surg 109:1251–1263, 2022), for which there currently limited literature. The aim this paper to ascertain incidence risk...
