The Frailty Based on the Memorial Sloan Kettering Frailty Index for Prediction of Surgical Outcome in Advance Epithelial Ovarian Cancer-Experience of a Single Center in Mexico.

Retrospective impact evaluation of frailty as measured by the Memorial Sloan Kettering Frailty Index (MSK-FI) on outcomes in older women surgically treated for advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). Women ≥ 60 years with stage IIIC/IV EOC who underwent primary debulking surgery (PDS) or interval debulking surgery (IDS) were included. Medical records were reviewed for patients' characteristics and outcomes.

Predictors of anastomotic leak after total gastrectomy in patients with adenocarcinoma.

Background: Esophagojejunal anastomotic leakage (EJAL) is among the most feared complications after gastric cancer surgery; they entail an uncertain prognosis and relate with increased morbidity and mortality. Factors associated with their development are not well determined, and their diagnosis and treatment vary between institutions.

Material And Methods: Retrospective case-control study of patients operated of total gastrectomy with Roux-en-Y esophagojejunostomy from January 2002 to December 2018.

Exenteración pélvica para cáncer de recto localmente avanzado y recurrente: resultados a largo plazo y factores pronósticos.

Objetivo: El objetivo de este trabajo fue analizar los resultados perioperatorios y a largo plazo de los pacientes sometidos a exenteración pélvica para cáncer de recto en un centro de referencia en la Ciudad de México.

MÉtodo: Se incluyeron todos los pacientes que se sometieron a exenteración pélvica por cáncer de recto entre 1995 y 2019. Se analizaron variables demográficas, clínicas, quirúrgicas y patológicas.

Surgical Apgar score as a complication predictor in gastrointestinal oncologic surgery.

Introduction And Aims: Surgical resection of gastrointestinal (GI) cancer is the cornerstone of curative treatment but entails considerable morbidity. The surgical Apgar score (SAS) is a practical and objective instrument that provides immediate feedback. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the performance of the SAS for predicting complications at 30 days in patients with primary GI cancer that underwent curative surgery.

Usefulness of inflammatory markers in detecting esophagojejunostomy leakage.

Introduction And Aim: Total gastrectomy is utilized in different pathologies. Esophagojejunostomy leakage is a frequent complication. Our aim was to determine the association of the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) with esophagojejunostomy leakage that subsequently required invasive treatment.
