Filter by:By using the M.A.D.I.T. methodology and the Dialogics science, SALVO Project aims to develop operational guidelines to support oncological target patients in the resumption of their daily post-operative activities. The research will implement an instrument for the purpose of measuring the health need of participants who are admitted to the surgical ward. Therefore, targeted interventions will be implemented with participants, and efficacy will be evaluated in order to define treatment guidelines. The principal aim of this study is to create a validated and replicable intervention model for supporting patients who undergone surgery for esophageal and gastro intestinal cancer.
This study evaluates the ability of endoscopists to perform a complete optical diagnosis of colorectal polyps between 5 and 15 mm, and the impact of the only endoscopic diagnosis on the follow-up program for those patients. This is a prospective study in which we compare the diagnosis regarding size and histology made by the endoscopist versus de pathologic diagnosis.
This research study is designed to provide a better understanding of study drugs cetuximab (Erbitux®) and palbociclib when used in combination to treat patients with metastatic colon cancer.
Registry participants with advanced malignancy or myelodysplasia will have a sample of their tumor or tissue analysed for genetic alterations using next generation sequencing (NGS) performed in a lab that has been certified to meet a high quality standard. Treatments and outcomes will be reported to the registry to allow further understanding of how genetic differences can lead to better diagnosis and treatments.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the examination of the proximal colon with the retroflexion colonoscopic technique in terms of feasibility and its possible additive contribution in the detection of important lesions, namely polyps and cancers.
The purpose of this study is to determine the short and long outcomes of the novel technique of hand-assisted laparoscopic right hemicolectomy with complete mesocolic excision and central vascular ligation for right colon cancer.
In colorectal surgery, anastomotic leak and its septic consequences still remain as the most concerning complications resulting in substantial morbidity and mortality. A common determining factor for assessing the viability of a bowel anastomosis is adequate arterial perfusion to ensure sufficient local tissue oxygenation. Intraoperative near-infrared fluorescence (INIF) imaging using indocyanine green (ICG) dye is a novel technique which allows the surgeon to choose the point of transection at an optimally perfused area before creating a bowel anastomosis. Recently, the INIF imaging system has been installed on the robotic systems and this helps identify intravascular NIF signals in real time. Although reports from several case series and retrospective cohorts have described the feasibility and safety of this imaging system during robotic colorectal surgery, to date, no studies have addressed more systematically the outcomes of this technique in robotic surgery. Considering the limitations of these reports, investigators aim to conduct a prospective randomized trial to compare robotic procedures with or without INIF imaging in patients undergoing colorectal surgery.
The primary purpose of the trial is to determine the preliminary efficacy of therapeutic ultrasound in the treatment of pain and sensory disturbance related to chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy.
The aim of this study is to evaluate Endocuff- assisted colonoscopy in terms of its possible additive contribution in the detection of important lesions, namely polyps and cancers, compared to standard colonoscopy, in a series of patients undergoing back-to-back screening or surveillance colonoscopies in a randomized fashion. Moreover, we aim to assess possible changes regarding post-polypectomy surveillance programs following Endocuff utilization.
The aim of this study is to evaluate FUSE-colonoscopy in terms of feasibility and its possible additive contribution in the detection of important lesions, namely polyps and cancers, compared to the standard "forward-viewing" approach, with and without the addition of the right-colon retroflexion technique, in a series of patients undergoing back-to-back screening or surveillance colonoscopies in a randomized fashion.
