Minimally Invasive Pelvic Exenteration for Gynecologic Malignancies: A Multi-Institutional Case Series and Review of the Literature.

2019

ABSTRACT Study Objective To assess the feasibility and efficacy of minimally invasive pelvic exenteration (MIPE) in a multi-institutional Italian case series of women with gynecologic cancer and a review of the literature. Design Retrospective cohort study (Canadian Task Force classification II-2). Setting Three Italian university/teaching hospitals: “Agostino Gemelli” Foundation University Hospital in Rome, "ARNAS Civico Di Cristina Benfratelli” Hospital in Palermo, and “Maggiore della Carita” Hospital in Novara. Patients We reviewed all consecutive cases with gynecologic malignancies in this multi-institutional setting recorded between March 2014 and June 2017. Women with primary or centr…

Prevalence of lymph nodes in the parametrium of radical vaginal trachelectomy (RVT) specimen

2011

Objective: In order to evaluate radicality in fertility preserving surgery in women with early invasive cervical cancer we analyzed the parametrium of specimens of patients treated by radical vaginal trachelectomy for the presence of lymph nodes. We tried to identify morphologic factors associated with the presence of parametrial lymph nodes. Methods: We analyzed surgical specimens of 112 patients who underwent radical trachelectomy between June 2004 and April 2009 at the Department of Gynecologic Oncology at Charité Campus Benjamin Franklin and Campus Mitte. All parametrial tissue was step sectioned and a total of 1878H&E stained histological sections were analyzed. Results: In 8 patients …

Laparoscopic radical hysterectomy in cervical cancer as total mesometrial resection (L-TMMR): A multicentric experience

2015

Abstract Objective To analyze the feasibility of total mesometrial resection by laparoscopy (L-TMMR) in a multicentric series of early stage cervical cancer. Method We prospectively evaluated a consecutive series of cervical cancer patients with pre-operative FIGO stages IA2–IB1 at the Catholic University in Rome and in Campobasso and the Charite University in Berlin. All cases were assessed at pre-operative MRI scan and clinically confirmed by investigation under anesthesia, adhering strictly to the FIGO criteria. The surgical and post-surgical data were collected. Results 104 women with cervical cancer were admitted between July 2013 and August 2014 and among them 71 patients with pre-ope…

Feasibility and safety of two different surgical routes for the eradication of recto-vaginal endometriosis with vaginal mucosa infiltration (Endo-Vag…

2020

Introduction: Recto-vaginal endometriosis surgical management needing partial colpectomy is a surgically challenging condition and has been associated with a notable risk of major postoperative complications. In the present study we sought to compare feasibility and safety of total laparoscopic (TL) and vaginal-assisted (VA) routes in women affected by symptomatic recto-vaginal endometriosis with vaginal mucosa infiltration scheduled for minimally invasive surgery. Material and methods: Multi-centric, retrospective cohort study on medical records of consecutive reproductive age women submitted to complete macroscopic eradication of symptomatic recto-vaginal endometriosis with vaginal mucosa…

Definition of a dynamic laparoscopic model for the prediction of incomplete cytoreduction in advanced epithelial ovarian cancer: Proof of a concept

2015

Abstract Objective To develop an updated laparoscopy-based model to predict incomplete cytoreduction (RT>0) in advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (AEOC), after the introduction of upper abdominal surgery (UAS). Patients and methods The presence of omental cake, peritoneal extensive carcinomatosis, diaphragmatic confluent carcinomatosis, bowel infiltration, stomach and/or spleen and/or lesser omentum infiltration, and superficial liver metastases was evaluated by staging laparoscopy (S-LPS) in a consecutive series of 234 women with newly diagnosed AEOC, receiving laparotomic PDS after S-LPS. Parameters showing a specificity≥75%, PPV≥50%, and NPV≥50% received 1 point score, with an additional…

Myxofibroma of the maxilla. Reconstruction with iliac crest graft and dental implants after tumor resection

2010

Odontogenic fibromyxomas are benign odontogenic tumors of mesenchymal origin of rare presentation in the oral cavity, which exhibit locally aggressive behavior and are prone to local recurrence. The controversy has mainly been on therapeutic management with recommendations varying, depending on the clinical cases, from simple curettage of lesion to segmental bone resection. We present a case report describing the reconstruction of an osseous defect in the maxilla and the restoration with dental implants in a 32 year old female patient after radical surgical excision due to an odontogenic fibromyxoma with locally aggressive behavior. The primary reconstruction of maxillary discontinuity defe…

Usefulness of ileostomy defunctioning stoma after anterior resection of rectum on prevention of anastomotic leakage A retrospective analysis

2016

Anastomotic leakage is one of the major complications occurring after anterior resection of rectum. A defunctioning stoma is usually created routinely or on surgeons' discretion. The aim of this study was to investigate the usefulness of temporary ileostomy to prevent anastomotic leakage comparing the postoperative course of patients with and without defunctioning loop ileostomy.Patients that underwent anterior resection of rectum were recruited. 140 patients were enrolled and divided in two groups: patients without and with defunctioning loop ileostomy. Patients' characteristics and other useful data were recorded. A comparison between the two groups was made. The minimum follow-up was 11 …

Guía clínica en el manejo perioperatorio para la cirugía de resección pulmonar por videotoracoscopia (Sección de Anestesia Cardiaca, Vascular y Torác…

2022

Resumen La introduccion de tecnicas toracoscopicas asistidas por video en cirugia toracica (VATS) ha permitido realizar un nuevo enfoque en la cirugia toracica. El acceso videotoracoscopico se realiza con pequenas incisiones, preservando al maximo los musculos y los tejidos. En la actualidad, la VATS se considera de eleccion en la mayoria de los procedimientos toracicos, principalmente debido a la menor morbimortalidad asociada. La reseccion pulmonar por VATS presenta reduccion de las fugas de aire prolongadas, arritmias, neumonia, dolor postoperatorio y una disminucion de los marcadores inflamatorios. Esta reduccion de las complicaciones postoperatorias esta vinculada a una reduccion de la…

Predictors of residual T1 high grade on re-transurethral resection in a large multi-institutional cohort of patients with primary T1 high-grade/grade…

2018

The aim of this multi-institutional study was to identify predictors of residual high-grade (HG) disease at re-transurethral resection (reTUR) in a large cohort of primary T1 HG/Grade 3 (G3) bladder cancer patients. A total of 1155 patients with primary T1 HG/G3 bladder cancer from 13 academic institutions that underwent a reTUR within 6 weeks after first TUR were evaluated. Logistic regression analysis was performed to assess the association of predictive factors with residual HG at reTUR. Residual HG cancer was found in 288 (24.9%) of patients at reTUR. Patients presenting residual HG cancer were more likely to have carcinoma in situ (CIS) at first resection (p=25 kg/m2. On multivariable …
