Prognostic factors for patients with esophageal cancer who achieve pathological complete response in the primary tumor after upfront chemotherapy or chemoradiotherapy

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Male gender and pathological lymph node metastasis are independent poor prognostic factors in patients with esophageal cancer who receive upfront treatment followed by surgery and achieved pathological complete response of the primary tumor. Among patients without pathological lymph node metastasis, the upfront chemotherapy group showed significantly ...

A Formal Approach For Modelling And Analysing Surgical Procedures (Extended Version) [PDF]

arXiv
Surgical procedures are often not "standardised" (i.e., defined in a unique and unambiguous way), but rather exist as implicit knowledge in the minds of the surgeon and the surgical team. This reliance extends to pre-surgery planning and effective communication during the procedure. We introduce a novel approach for the formal and automated analysis of

Effect of Intraoperative Posture on Accurate Diagnostic Rate of Intraoperative Nerve Monitoring During Esophagectomy

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Adequate contact between the intubation tube and the vocal cord muscles is crucial for effective intraoperative nerve monitoring use during esophagectomy. Additionally, intraoperative posture significantly affects diagnostic outcomes and should be carefully considered.

Spinal column shortening versus revision detethering for recurrent adult tethered cord syndrome: a preliminary comparison of perioperative and clinical outcomes. [PDF]

, 2020
OBJECTIVE:Recurrent tethered cord syndrome (TCS), believed to result from tension on the distal portion of the spinal cord, causes a constellation of neurological symptoms. Detethering surgery has been the traditional treatment for TCS. However, in cases

Prognostic Impact of Bone Mineral Density Reduction During Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy (NAC) in Patients Undergoing NAC Followed by Esophagectomy for Esophageal Cancer

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
The association between BMD reduction during NAC and the worse prognosis remains unknown, although NAC followed by esophagectomy is a standard treatment for advanced ESCC. This study appeared that BMD massive reduction was an independent prognostic factor on OS (HR, 3.30; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.69–6.55) and RFS (HR, 2.08; 95% CI, 1.19–3.63 ...

Leveraging Surgical Activity Grammar for Primary Intention Prediction in Laparoscopy Procedures [PDF]

arXiv
Surgical procedures are inherently complex and dynamic, with intricate dependencies and various execution paths. Accurate identification of the intentions behind critical actions, referred to as Primary Intentions (PIs), is crucial to understanding and planning the procedure.
