Neo-adjuvant radiotherapy in rectal cancer

World Journal of Gastroenterology, 2013
In rectal cancer treatment, attention has focused on the local primary tumour and the regional tumour cell deposits to diminish the risk of a loco-regional recurrence. Several large randomized trials have also shown that combinations of surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy have markedly reduced the risk of a loco-regional recurrence, but this has not

Effect of Broad‐Spectrum Antibiotic Prophylaxis on Post‐Pancreatoduodenectomy Infectious Complications: Nationwide Inpatient Database Study in Japan

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Using a nationwide Japanese inpatient database, we evaluated whether broad‐spectrum antibiotic prophylaxis improves postoperative outcomes after pancreatoduodenectomy compared with narrow‐spectrum antibiotics. In propensity score–weighted analyses of 45 099 patients, broad‐spectrum prophylaxis was associated with significantly lower rates of intra ...

Management Strategies for Disappearing Colorectal Liver Metastases After Systemic Chemotherapy: Long‐Term Outcomes and Preoperative Prediction of ‘True Complete Response’

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Determining whether to resect disappearing liver metastases (DLMs) after chemotherapy for colorectal liver metastases (CRLMs) remains challenging. Methods Patients who underwent hepatectomy after systemic chemotherapy for initially unresectable CRLMs were reviewed. True complete response (CR) was defined as either resected DLMs with

Survival Outcomes of Gemcitabine–Cisplatin–S‐1 Versus Gemcitabine–Cisplatin in Unresectable Biliary Tract Cancer: A Multicenter Retrospective Study With a Focus on Conversion Surgery

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
In this multicenter retrospective study conducted by the Biliary Tract Club, we compared survival outcomes between gemcitabine–cisplatin–S‐1 (GCS) and gemcitabine–cisplatin (GC) in patients with unresectable biliary tract cancer, with a particular focus on conversion surgery. GCS was associated with longer overall and progression‐free survival compared

Relationship Between the Product of Pre‐Treatment Neutrophil and Monocyte Counts and Clinical Outcomes in Rectal Cancer With Suspected Lateral Lymph Node Metastasis

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim A novel systemic inflammatory response marker, the neutrophil × monocyte value (NM value), has been identified as a negative predictive factor for responses to chemoradiotherapy in rectal cancer. However, the clinical implications of the NM value remain unknown.

Evaluation of the Effect of Radiotherapy Timing on Toxicity in HER2-Positive Breast Cancer Receiving Trastuzumab Emtansine During the Adjuvant Period

Acta Haematologica Oncologica Turcica
Aim: Breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in women. Approximately 20-25% of breast cancers express HER2 and are associated with poor prognosis. With the use of HER2-targeted therapies, there has been an increase in treatment

Surgical Resection for Colorectal Liver Metastasis in Elderly Patients Aged ≥ 80: A Retrospective Nationwide Cohort Survey in Japan With Propensity Score Matching

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Surgical resection for CRLM seems to be as effective in elderly patients aged ≥ 80 as in nonelderly patients. However, elderly patients aged ≥ 80 had significantly worse cancer‐specific survival (CSS) and overall survival (OS). The significantly worse CSS and OS may have resulted from a lower rate of treatment for recurrence in elderly patients aged ...
