<h3>Importance</h3> Ovarian cancer has the highest mortality rate among gynecologic malignant tumors. Data are lacking on survival benefit of hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) in women with ovarian who underwent primary or interval cytoreductive surgery. <h3>Objective</h3> To assess clinical HIPEC after maximal surgery stage III IV advanced cancer. <h3>Design, Setting, and Participants</h3> In this single-blind randomized trial performed at 2 institutions South Korea from...
Abstract Background Previous studies have reported that pretreatment thrombocytosis is associated with poor outcomes in several cancer types. This study was designed to evaluate the prognostic significance of preoperative patients non-small cell lung (NSCLC) who undergo surgery. Methods We retrospectively reviewed records 199 underwent R0 resection for NSCLC between May 2003 and July 2006 at Seoul National University Bundang Hospital, Seongnam, Korea. Results The frequency 7.5% (15/199)....
This study analyzed the relation between tumor size and lymph node metastasis in adenocarcinoma of lung with a 30 mm or smaller.Four hundred thirteen patients who had undergone curative resection for were enrolled. If presented ground-glass opacities on preoperative high-resolution computed tomography, both total including solid alone measured. To calculate rates by size, tumors divided into six groups their sizes: 5 less, 6 to 10 mm, 11 15 16 20 21 25 26 mm.The average numbers dissected...
This study was conducted to investigate the prognostic factors of pulmonary metastases, focusing on time detection metastases related adjuvant chemotherapy in patients with colorectal cancer (CRC).Between June 2003 and December 2010, 84 underwent metastasectomy for metastasis (PM) from CRC. The clinicopathological data surgery were analysed retrospectively. Disease-free intervals (DFIs) specifically classified into following three groups after operation: Group 1, detected at initial...
Minimally invasive esophagectomy theoretically offers advantages compared with open (OE). The aim of this study was to compare the early- and mid-term outcomes between video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) (VE) OE in patients esophageal cancer.Between November 2011 July 2015, a total 172 were divided into two groups depending on method esophagectomy: VE group (n=42) (n=130). A propensity analysis that incorporated perioperative variables, such as age, sex, preoperative pulmonary...
The aim of this open-label, non-inferiority trial was to evaluate whether pre-emptive local bupivacaine injection (PLBI) can replace intravenous patient controlled analgesia (IV PCA) in video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) major pulmonary resection.A total 86 patients scheduled for VATS segmentectomy/lobectomy were randomly assigned into two groups. PLBI group (n=42) received 0.5% wound infiltration before skin incision, and the IV PCA (n=44) a continuous infusion fentanyl with basal rate...
Purpose We conducted a retrospective analysis to determine if adjuvant chemotherapy prolongs overall survival in patients with pathologic stage IB lung adenocarcinoma who had undergone complete resection and were defined as high-risk by newly developed recurrence risk scoring model. Materials Methods Patients underwent curative for analyzed model divided into low-risk group group. The the retrospectively two groups based on whether they or observation. Recurrence-free compared between these...
Single incision thoracoscopic surgery (SITS) is recognized as a difficult procedure and surgeons hesitate to perform this technique. We describe our experience of SITS determine whether can be routine approach in minimally invasive surgery. From May 2011 April 2013, single operator attempted for 264 cases. Their medical records were retrospectively reviewed with regard age, sex, diagnosis, operation time, hospital stay, need additional incision, morbidity, early outcome. A number thoracic...
The quality of life associated with eating is becoming an increasingly significant problem for patients who undergo esophagectomy as a result the improved survival rate after esophageal cancer surgery. Delayed gastric emptying (DGE) common complication esophagectomy. Although several strategies have been proposed management and prevention DGE, no clear consensus exists. purpose this review to present brief overview DGE help clinicians choose most appropriate treatment through analysis by...
LBA4002 Background: Surgical resection is a recommended treatment for operable gastric cancer (GC) in general, despite high recurrence rates (40%–80%). Adjuvant chemotherapy aims to reduce recurrences; however, there currently no universally accepted adjuvant regimen GC. Methods: CLASSIC randomized, open-label, multicenter, international (South Korea, China, and Taiwan) study of XELOX (capecitabine 1000mg/m 2 bid, d1–14, q3w oxaliplatin 130mg/m , d1, x 8 cycles) vs observation, following D2...
Prolonged air leak is the most common complication after pulmonary resection surgery. Water submersion test (WST) has been used to check for leak. However, it cumbersome under circumstances of video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS). This study aimed devise a new detection method that suitable VATS.We decided utilize properties surfactants overcome disadvantages WST. To find optimal surfactant, ex-vivo porcine lung experiments were prepared with custom-made large glass vessel mimicking human...
The efficacy of telemedicine among cancer survivors is uncertain. Smart After-Care Program (SAP), which an interactive, smartphone-based remote health monitoring system, was developed to help patients manage their after leaving the hospital. This study designed evaluate our care program for lung patients.We enrolled 50 with cancer. Self-monitoring devices were supplied all patients, who instructed enter daily vital signs and subjective symptoms app. app also provided information about...
