Article Synopsis
- This study examines whether surgery prior to peptide receptor radionuclide therapy improves outcomes for patients with metastatic gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors.
- A total of 89 patients were analyzed, with 56 undergoing surgery before receiving therapy, leading to a median progression-free survival of 26.1 months versus 15.6 months for those who did not have surgery.
- Results indicated that surgical intervention, particularly liver debulking, resulted in lower tumor volumes and significantly better progression-free survival outcomes, suggesting a potential benefit of timing in treatment approaches.
Background: Across surgery, marginalized individuals experience worse postoperative outcomes. These disparities stem from the interplay between multiple factors.
Methods: We introduced a novel framework to assess the role of barriers to access and bias in surgical complications (the uChicago Health Inequity Classification System, CHI-CS) in the setting of morbidity and mortality conference and assessed impact through pre and post implementation surveys.
Background: Hepatic inflammatory myofibroblastic tumours (HIMTs) are rare and poorly described in the literature. Most publications are single patient case reports and lack detailed reporting on characteristics, management, and outcomes. This systematic review aimed to assess the demography, clinical presentation, typical imaging features, histopathology, treatment, and outcomes of patients presenting with HIMTs.
