Pathology Reporting of Resected Pancreatic/Periampullary Cancer Specimen
2018
Pancreatic specimens have always been a great challenge for surgical pathologists due to their anatomic complexity and the difficulty of becoming familiar with these specimens. However, pancreatic specimens are becoming more and more common in many hospitals because of the improvements in surgical techniques and perioperative care that have dramatically reduced the postoperative mortality rate.
Impact of Age and Comorbidity on Multimodal Management and Survival from Colorectal Cancer : A Population-Based Study
2021
This retrospective population-based study examined the impact of age and comorbidity burden on multimodal management and survival from colorectal cancer (CRC). From 2000 to 2015, 1479 consecutive patients, who underwent surgical resection for CRC, were reviewed for age-adjusted Charlson comorbidity index (ACCI) including 19 well-defined weighted comorbidities. The impact of ACCI on multimodal management and survival was compared between low (score 0–2), intermediate (score 3) and high ACCI (score ≥ 4) groups. Changes in treatment from 2000 to 2015 were seen next to a major increase of laparoscopic surgery, increased use of adjuvant chemotherapy and an intensified treatment of metastatic dis…
Impact of video-assisted thoracic surgery approach on postoperative mortality after lobectomy in octogenarians.
2019
The number of octogenarians who present with localized lung cancer eligible for surgical resection is increasing. Video-assisted thoracic surgery lobectomy has been widely accepted, but the potential benefit in octogenarians is not well established, especially for postoperative mortality. This study aimed to assess the impact of a video-assisted thoracic surgery approach on postoperative mortality after lobectomy for lung cancer in octogenarians.From January 2005 to December 2016, all patients aged more than 80 years who received lobectomy treatment for lung cancer were retrieved from the French Administrative Database. The end point was 30-day postoperative death. A propensity score was ge…
