Technical considerations for isolated limb perfusion: A consensus paper.

Eur J Surg Oncol

June 2024

Sahlgrenska Center for Cancer Research, Department of Surgery, Institute of Clinical Sciences, Sahlgrenska Academy, University of Gothenburg, Gothenburg, Sweden.

Background: Isolated limb perfusion (ILP) is a well-established surgical procedure for the administration of high dose chemotherapy to a limb for the treatment of advanced extremity malignancy. Although the technique of ILP was first described over 60 years ago, ILP is utilised in relatively few specialist centres, co-located with tertiary or quaternary cancer centres. The combination of high dose cytotoxic chemotherapy and the cytokine tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNFα), mandates leakage monitoring to prevent potentially serious systemic toxicity.

Transoral robotic surgery without adjuvant therapy: A systematic review and meta-analysis of the association between surgical margins and local recurrence.

Oral Oncol

December 2023

International Centre for Recurrent Head and Neck Cancer (IReC), Department of Head and Neck Surgery, The Royal Marsden Hospital, London, UK; Institute for Cancer Research, London, UK. Electronic address:

Background: Transoral robotic surgery (TORS) is increasingly employed in the management of oropharyngeal cancer without adjuvant treatment. Attaining safe surgical margins is paramount to preventing local recurrence (LR), but the necessary surgical margin dimension remains contentious.

Methods: Systematic review and meta-analysis of studies reporting margin status and LR following TORS without adjuvant therapy for primary OPSCC.

A radiomics-based decision support tool improves lung cancer diagnosis in combination with the Herder score in large lung nodules.

Electronic address:

Article Synopsis
  • Large lung nodules (≥15 mm) have the highest risk of cancer but current risk models are not effective for these larger nodules. A study aimed to create a new classification system that combines deep learning and traditional methods to assess their cancer risk.
  • The study involved 502 patients and used 838 CT scans to develop an automated segmentation model and a radiomics signature, named LN-RPV, to evaluate malignancy risk. The new model was tested against human radiologists and existing scoring systems.
  • Results showed that the customized LN-RPV model outperformed median radiologists and traditional scores in malignancy classification, indicating its potential as a reliable decision-support tool for identifying high-risk lung nodules, which could lead to better

Background: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic caused unprecedented disruption to global healthcare delivery. In England, the majority of elective surgery was postponed or cancelled to increase intensive care capacity. Our unit instituted the 'RM Partners Cancer Hub' at the Royal Marsden Hospital in London, to deliver ongoing cancer surgery in a 'COVID-lite' setting.

Multidimensional psychopathological profile differences between patients with psychogenic nonepileptic seizures and epileptic seizure disorders.

Epilepsy Behav

October 2022

Department of Neurology, Alfred Health, Melbourne, Australia; Department of Neurology, The Royal Melbourne Hospital, Parkville, Australia; Department of Medicine, The Royal Melbourne Hospital, University of Melbourne, Parkville, Australia; Clinical Outcomes Research (CORe) Unit, Department of Medicine (RMH), The University of Melbourne, Parkville, Australia.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to understand differences in mental health profiles between patients with psychogenic nonepileptic seizures (PNES) and those with epileptic seizures (ES), focusing on various aspects of psychopathology.
  • Involving 261 patients, the research found that those with PNES reported significantly higher levels of childhood trauma, dissociation, and depression compared to the ES group, highlighting notable differences in their mental health.
  • Despite the observed differences, the individual psychometric measures were found to have limited diagnostic effectiveness, suggesting that a combined general psychopathology factor better explains the variations between the two groups.
