EP755 Laparoscopically modified laterally extended endopelvic resection for gynecological malignancies involving pelvic side wall: a feasibility analysis
Introduction/Background Lateral pelvic side wall involvement by gynecological malignancies has been considered for a long time an absolute contraindication to curative resection. Recently the surgical paradigm is challenged with the development of the Laterally Extended Endopelvic Resection, LEER. Although the LEER is perfectly standardized in open surgery, just one small experience has been published about its endoscopic feasibility.The objective of this study is to analyze the feasibility of Laparoscopically Modified Laterally Extended Endopelvic Resection, LM-LEER, in patients with gynecological malignancies involving the lateral pelvic side wall. Methodology We retrospectively evaluated…
EP756 Laterally extended endopelvic resection: a comparative analysis between laparotomic and laparoscopically modified approach
Introduction/Background Laterally Extended Endopelvic Resection (LEER) has been identified as a valid therapeutic option for women with gynecological malignancies involving the pelvic side wall. The historical approach to LEER is laparotomic, recently we have proposed the so called Laparoscopically Modified Laterally Extended Endopelvic Resection (LM-LEER).The objective of this study is to compare surgical and oncological outcomes between LEER and LM-LEER in a consecutive series of patients with gynecological malignancies infiltrating the pelvic side wall. Methodology We retrospectively evaluated women submitted to LEER between October 2012 and January 2019. Inclusion criteria for LM-LEER w…
Risk factors associated with adverse fetal outcomes in pregnancies affected by Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19): a secondary analysis of the WAPM study on COVID-19.
Abstract Objectives To evaluate the strength of association between maternal and pregnancy characteristics and the risk of adverse perinatal outcomes in pregnancies with laboratory confirmed COVID-19. Methods Secondary analysis of a multinational, cohort study on all consecutive pregnant women with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 from February 1, 2020 to April 30, 2020 from 73 centers from 22 different countries. A confirmed case of COVID-19 was defined as a positive result on real-time reverse-transcriptase-polymerase-chain-reaction (RT-PCR) assay of nasal and pharyngeal swab specimens. The primary outcome was a composite adverse fetal outcome, defined as the presence of either abortion (pre…
Laparoscopic sentinel node mapping with intracervical indocyanine green injection for endometrial cancer: the SENTIFAIL study – a multicentric analysis of predictors of failed mapping
ObjectivesLaparoscopy is commonly used for endometrial cancer treatment, and sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping has become the standard procedure for nodal assessment. Despite the standardization of the technique, there is no definitive data regarding its failure rate. The objective of this study is to identify factors associated with unsuccessful SLN mapping in endometrial cancer patients undergoing laparoscopic SLN mapping after intracervical indocyanine green (ICG) injection.MethodsWe retrospectively evaluated a consecutive series of endometrial cancer patients who underwent laparoscopic SLN mapping with intracervical ICG injection, in four oncological referral centers from January 2016 t…
