Physiological performance and inflammatory markers as indicators of complications after oesophageal cancer surgery

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 ...

Impact on postoperative complications of changes in skeletal muscle mass during neoadjuvant chemotherapy for gastro‐oesophageal cancer

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

BJS (British Journal of Surgery), Volume 107, Issue 10, Page 1324-1333, September 2020., 2020
A total of 511 patients who underwent curative chemoradiotherapy and subsequent tumour resection for oesophageal cancer were reviewed retrospectively for bleeding events and arterial or venous thromboembolism (VTE). During the 2‐year follow‐up, 50 patients (9·8 per cent) developed VTE, 20 (3·9 per cent) arterial thromboembolism, 21 (4·1 per cent) major

Propensity score regression analysis of oesophageal adenocarcinoma treatment with surgery alone or neoadjuvant chemotherapy

BJS Open, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 593-600, August 2020., 2020
Following propensity adjustment for stage, age and sex, neoadjuvant therapy was not associated with survival. Tumour regression is a powerful prognostic indicator, and future research should focus on identifying patients who will derive the most benefit from neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
