Diagnostic Accuracy of Size‐Based Preoperative CT Assessment for Predicting Lymph Node Metastasis in Colon Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Preoperative CT based on lymph node size shows moderate accuracy for detecting nodal metastasis in colon cancer. In this meta‐analysis of 29 studies (5,634 patients), pooled sensitivity and specificity were 0.69 and 0.66. Size‐based CT alone has limited value for clinical decision‐making.

Sex‐Based Body Composition Changes in Patients With Rectal Cancer Undergoing Preoperative Chemoradiotherapy: A Prospective Observational Study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This prospective study observed that preoperative chemoradiotherapy for rectal cancer was associated with reductions in body fat and grip strength, which appeared to be more pronounced in female patients. These findings suggest that sex‐sensitive nutritional and exercise support may be beneficial to help maintain muscle mass and physical function ...

Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis on the Efficacy and Safety of Salvage Esophagectomy for T4 Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This meta‐analysis of 208 cases shows that salvage esophagectomy for cT4 esophageal squamous cell carcinoma achieves a 72% R0 resection rate, offering a curative pathway for selected patients. However, it remains a high‐risk procedure with an 18% anastomotic leak rate and 30% major complications (Clavien–Dindo ≥ III).
