The incidence of postoperative re-stratification for recurrence in well-differentiated thyroid cancer-a retrospective cohort study.

Background: After diagnosing well-differentiated thyroid cancer (WDTC), assessment of the risk for disease-specific recurrence is essential for deciding between hemi-thyroidectomy (HT) and total thyroidectomy (TT). The American Thyroid Association (ATA) 2015 guidelines suggest that patients with 1-4 cm WDTC without suspicious features may be suitable for HT. Patients' preoperatively determined risk levels are re-stratified according to surgical and final histopathological findings.

Ratio of Pathological Response to Preoperative Chemotherapy in Patients Undergoing Complete Cytoreduction and Hyperthermic Intraperitoneal Chemotherapy for Metastatic Colorectal Cancer Correlates with Survival.

Background: Pathological response of colorectal peritoneal metastasis (CRPM) may affect prognosis. We investigated the relationship between oncological outcomes and pathological response to chemotherapy of CRPM following cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC).

Methods: We conducted a retrospective analysis of a prospectively maintained Peritoneal Surface Malignancies database between 2015 and 2020.
