To investigate whether laparoscopic ileocecus-sparing right hemicolectomy is feasible and oncologically safe
Patients diagnosed with T4 colorectal cancer represent a specific subgroup of colorectal patients, frequently composed of fragile patients whose advanced nature of the disease often requires a multi organ resection by an open surgery approach and frequently leads to higher intra/postoperative complication.Those characteristics makes them to be considered less suitable for ERAS protocol, especially regarding an expected difficult compliance to postoperative items. The impact of enhanced recovery program on postoperative outcomes in this subset of patients has never been addressed in literature, in fact most of studies either excluded T4 patients due to higher rates of complication or adopted an homogeneous patient sampling analizing all stage colorectal cancer together. Our aim is to investigate the feasibility of ERAS protocol in T4 colorectal patient, primary outcome was to compare postoperative lenght of stay between T4 colorectal patients treated with ERAS protcol and those treated with standard of care.
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 esophagus and gastro intestinal cancer.
This controlled-randomized trial compares the artificial intelligence Genius® system assisted (Genius+) to standard (Genius-) colonoscopy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of Genius® system on ADR in routine colonoscopy. The secondary aims will be the impact of Genius® system on polyp detection rate (PDR), serrated polyp detection rate (SPDR), advanced neoplasia detection rate (ANDR), mean number of polyps (MNP), polyp type and localization, and operator type (according to basal ADR).
The aim of this study is to demonstrate the feasibility, surgical, and oncologic outcomes of laparoscopic right hemicolectomy with CME and CVL compared to open surgery.
The study is a cross-sectional survey study targeting patients aged 45-75 who had their screening or surveillance colonoscopy postponed or delayed due to the COVID pandemic. Study staff will survey a random subsample of patients to assess anxiety, COVID risk tolerance, cancer worry, willingness to screen and barriers to screening colonoscopy, and preference for colonoscopy and alternative colon cancer screening options. Eligible patients will be sent a survey packet in the mail that will include a cover letter, an information sheet describing the study, an incentive, and the survey. The cover letter will include information for participants to opt-out if they desire. Patients will be asked to complete the survey and return it back to study staff. Consent is implied with return of the survey. For the study, staff plan to invite 300 patients and expect to receive 195 completed surveys. Analyses will examine whether COVID-19 has changed patients' interest in colon cancer screening and the strength of patients' preferences for colonoscopy and other approaches to colon cancer screening. It will then examine factors associated with positive and negative views on rescheduling colonoscopies such as anxiety, worry, and risk perceptions.
The main purpose of this study is to investigate whether magnetic ressonance imaging (MRI) can be used in treatment planning with assessment of diagnostic accuracy. With the inclusion of 150 patients the study will investigate whether MRI is useful and better than CT scanning in patients with colon tumors. And also if MRI is useful after neoadjuvant treatment.
Approximately 20-30 % of colon cancer patients who have no metastasis in lymph nodes after definitive colectomy have recurrence with distant metastasis. These recurrences could be due to missed occult tumor cells or micrometastasis. Detailed examination of all lymph nodes is expensive and time consuming. Sentinel lymph node mapping using Indocyanine green dye helps in identifying the lymph nodes which are most likely to harbour metastasis. These sentinel lymph nodes can be subsequently subjected to detailed pathologic examination and immunohistochemistry which increases the likelihood of identifying micrometastasis and occult tumor cells. Patients found to harbour such metastasis can be treated with additional chemotherapy after surgery. The aim of the study is to examine the feasibility of sentinel lymph node mapping using Indocyanine green dye in colon cancer and evaluate the upstaging rate in post-operative colon cancer patients who don't have metastatic lymph nodes on routine histopathology.
