Surgical treatment for colorectal cancer: analysis of the influence of an enhanced recovery programme on long-term oncological outcomes-a study protocol for a prospective, multicentre, observational cohort study.
BMJ Open
October 2020
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates whether Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols can improve long-term health outcomes, specifically focusing on 5-year survival rates for colorectal cancer patients.
- It involves a multicenter approach with 12 hospitals participating, comparing a group of patients who receive high-level ERAS implementation against those who do not.
- The research will utilize various cancer survival indicators and quality of life assessments, applying statistical methods to analyze results and determine the effectiveness of ERAS on patient outcomes.
Antecedentes: La colitis actínica es una endarteritis obliterante ocasionada por exposición a radiación ionizante. Se manifiesta de manera aguda (primeras semanas) o crónica (hasta 30 años después).
Caso ClÍnico: Paciente tratado por neoplasia rectal mediante quimiorradioterapia y amputación abdominoperineal.
Unlabelled: Breast prostheses exposure is probably the most devastating complication after a skin sparing mastectomy (SSM) and implant-based, one-stage, breast reconstruction. This complication may occur in the immediate post-operative period or in the weeks and even months after the procedure. In most cases, the cause is poor skin coverage of the implant due to skin necrosis.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFIntroduction: Surgical site infection (SSI) can be as high as 30% in patients undergoing colorectal surgery and is associated with an increase in morbidity and mortality. The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of a set of simple preventive measures that have resulted in a reduction in surgical site infection in colorectal surgery.
Applied Method: Prospective study with two groups of patients treated in the colorectal unit of the "Clinico Universitario Lozano Blesa" hospital in Zaragoza.
Background: The use of a new chemotherapy as adjuvant treatment of colorectal cancer is not free of complications. Monoclonal antibodies are associated with bleeding and intestinal perforations.
Objective: To report the case of a patient who developed a serious complication after treatment with an antiangiogenic drug for colorectal neoplasm.
Background: The incidence of anastomotic stricture varies due to the different definitions given to the condition. In most cases they are asymptomatic, and if there are symptoms, they are usually those of a partial intestinal obstruction.
Case Report: The case is presented of an 80 year old patient who underwent a lower anterior resection for rectal neoplasm.
