What does peritoneal thickness in peritoneal dialysis patients tell us?

, 2007
Loss of peritoneal function is a major factor leading to failure of treatment in peritoneal dialysis (PD). Although the precise biologic mechanisms responsible for these changes have not been defined, the general assumption is that alterations in ...

Old and new perspectives on peritoneal dialysis in Italy emerging from the Peritoneal Dialysis Study Group Census.

, 2012
Background: To understand how peritoneal dialysis (PD) was being used in Italy in 2005 and 2008, a census of all centers was carried out. Methods: In 2005 and 2008, data were collected from, respectively, 222 and 223 centers, with respect to 4432 and ...

Retrohepatic Vena Cava Encirclement, as Surrogate of Extensive Liver Manipulation During Caval Sparing Hepatectomy, Is a Risk Factor for Tumor Recurrence After Liver Transplantation for Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Journal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction In liver transplantation (LT) with a caval sparing (CS) approach, the presence of complete encirclement of inferior vena cava (IVC‐E) by hypertrophic segment 1 increases the technical complexity of hepatectomy. Thus, in LT for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), It may be suspected that the resulting greater liver manipulation and ...

Morbidity and Mortality of Cytoreductive Surgery and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy in Patients Aged 70 Years and Older: A Two‐Center 10‐Year Experience

Journal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) is established for peritoneal surface malignancies, but its use in older patients is debated. We assessed CRS‐HIPEC morbidity and mortality in patients aged ≥ 70 years using a cohort of younger patients as a comparator.

Apoptosis of Mesothelial Cells Is Associated with the Pattern of Peritoneal Metastases in Ovarian Cancer

Background/Objectives: Peritoneal carcinomatosis is the leading cause of death in advanced ovarian cancer (AOC). Mesothelial cells lining the peritoneum modulate tumor implantation, yet the role of their apoptosis in metastasis development remains ...

Development and External Validation of a Postoperative Risk Score for Venous Thromboembolism in Epithelial Ovarian Cancer

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Venous thromboembolism (VTE), including deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, is a major complication in women with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). We aimed to develop and externally validate an early postoperative risk score to identify EOC patients at increased risk of VTE after debulking surgery.

Organoid Coculture Models for Cancer Research and Immunotherapy

Med Research, EarlyView.
This review summarizes organoid coculture platforms, including submerged Matrigel culture, air–liquid interface, microfluidic/organoid‐on‐a‐chip, and 3D bioprinting, for reconstructing the tumor microenvironment to study tumor–stroma/immune crosstalk, evaluate immunotherapies, and enable drug screening.

Metastasis-associated fibroblasts in peritoneal surface malignancies

British Journal of Cancer
AbstractOver decades, peritoneal surface malignancies (PSMs) have been associated with limited treatment options and poor prognosis. However, advancements in perioperative systemic chemotherapy, cytoreductive surgery (CRS), and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) have significantly improved clinical outcomes.

Tumor-associated fibrosis : a unique mechanism promoting ovarian cancer metastasis and peritoneal dissemination

Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is often diagnosed in advanced stage with peritoneal dissemination. Recent studies indicate that aberrant accumulation of collagen fibers in tumor stroma has a variety of effects on tumor progression. We refer to remodeled
