FIGO best practice guidance in surgical consent
International Journal of Gynecology &Obstetrics, Volume 163, Issue 3, Page 795-812, December 2023., 2023 Abstract Obtaining medical consent preoperatively is one of the key steps in preparing for surgery, and is an important step in informed decision making with the patient. According to good medical practice guidelines, doctors are required to have the knowledge and skills to treat patients as well as inform them, respect their wishes, and establish ...

Routine first‐trimester pre‐eclampsia screening and risk of preterm birth
Ultrasound in Obstetrics &Gynecology, Volume 60, Issue 2, Page 185-191, August 2022., 2022 Abstract Objectives Preterm birth (PTB) is a major public health problem worldwide. It can occur spontaneously or be medically indicated for obstetric complications, such as pre‐eclampsia (PE) or fetal growth restriction. The main objective of this study was to investigate whether there is a shared uteroplacental etiology in the first trimester of ...

Obese patients and robotic colorectal surgery: systematic review and meta‐analysis
BJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 6, Page 1042-1053, December 2020., 2020 Obesity is a major health problem that doubles the chance of colorectal cancer. The benefits of robotic surgery for colorectal operations in obese patients versus non‐obese patients are unknown. This meta‐analysis and systematic review highlights that robotic surgery in obese patients is similar and feasible compared with that in non‐obese patients ...

BJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 5, Page 840-846, October 2020., 2020 C‐reactive protein concentration and peak oxygen uptake are collective independent risk factors that can account for over half of major morbidity following oesophagectomy for oesophageal cancer. A composite risk score, the Combined Inflammatory and Physiology Score (CIPS) (range 0–2), predicted major morbidity (17·9 per cent in patients with a CIPS of ...

BJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 5, Page 847-854, October 2020., 2020 Deconditioning during neoadjuvant chemotherapy is a possible parameter for predicting operative outcomes. This retrospective cohort study aimed to assess body composition changes in patients with gastro‐oesophageal cancer during neoadjuvant therapy and investigate their association with postoperative complications. Skeletal muscle index values decrease

Centralizing a national pancreatoduodenectomy service: striking the right balance
BJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 5, Page 904-913, October 2020., 2020 A complete 2‐year national cohort of pancreatoduodenectomies was analysed for a volume–outcome effect of postoperative complications, mortality and failure‐to‐rescue. Medium–low‐volume units (fewer than 40 procedures per year) performed on par with a high‐volume unit.

Reintervention or mortality within 90 days of bariatric surgery: population‐based cohort study
BJS (British Journal of Surgery), Volume 107, Issue 9, Page 1221-1230, August 2020., 2020 This population‐based study in five Nordic countries, including 49 977 patients, showed that older age and co‐morbidity increased the risk of reintervention or death within 90 days after bariatric surgery. Sex, surgical approach and hospital volume did not appear to influence this risk, but female sex and laparoscopic approach were associated with ...

Conditional survival after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy and surgery for oesophageal cancer
BJS (British Journal of Surgery), Volume 107, Issue 8, Page 1053-1061, July 2020., 2020 Conditional survival accounts for the time already survived after surgery and may be of additional informative value. A nomogram was constructed that predicts 5‐year survival of patients with oesophageal cancer after neoadjuvant treatment followed by surgery, based on cardiac co‐morbidity, cN category, ypTN stage, chyle leakage and pulmonary ...

Impact of postoperative complications on survival after oesophagectomy for oesophageal cancer
BJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 405-415, June 2020., 2020 Recent evidence suggests that complications following oesophagectomy may decrease short‐ and long‐term survival. In this study, Clavien–Dindo grade II and IV complications decreased overall and recurrence‐free survival in univariable and multivariable Cox regression analyses.

Association of bacteria in pancreatic fistula fluid with complications after pancreatic surgery
BJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 3, Page 432-437, June 2020., 2020 This study showed that, despite the absence of intestinal lumen opening, pancreatic fistulas after distal pancreatectomy frequently contain intestinal bacteria, which markedly worsen the clinical outcome. Understanding the pathogenetic mechanism behind this high prevalence of intestinal bacteria within distal pancreatectomy‐associated pancreatic ...
