Objective: Assess outcomes of patients with right-sided colon cancer with metastases in the D3 volume after personalized surgery.
Background: Patients with central lymph node metastasis (D3-PNG) are considered to have a systemic disease with a poor prognosis. A 3-dimensional definition of the dissection volume allows the removal of all central nodes.
Background: To establish the impact of re-stratification on the outcomes of patients (stage I-III right-sided colon cancer) based on the presence/absence of occult tumor cells (OTC) and/or metastatic lymph nodes in the different levels of surgical dissection.
Methods: Consecutive patients were drawn from a multicenter prospective trial. After surgery, the surgical specimen was divided into the D1/D2 and D3 volumes before being further analyzed separately.
Background: Improvement of lymphadenectomy in right colectomy requires removal of all tissue surrounding the superior mesenteric vessels beneath the pancreatic notch. Short- and long-term bowel motility disorders after D3 extended mesenterectomy with consecutive superior mesenteric plexus transection are studied.
Methods: Patients without pre-existing motility disorders undergoing D3 extended mesenterectomy were examined 3 times using the wireless motility capsule: before, at 3 wk, and 6 mo after surgery.
Background: D3 extended mesenterectomy (D3EM) for right colon cancer has received increased attention owing to suggested improvement of oncological outcomes. The aim of this study was to evaluate the proficiency-based progression of content-valid metrics in a cadaveric model for right colectomy with D3EM.
Materials And Methods: Three expert surgeons were enrolled.
