Filter by:Evaluating the value of dynamic monitoring of a colorectal cancer liver metastasis cohort underwent curative resection after receiving multipoint ctDNA detecting in predicting recurrence prognosis and guiding adjuvant chemotherapy treatment.
Patients with liver metastasis from esophagus squamous (ESC) are usually offered systemic therapy. However, for those with predominant liver disease or failure of system therapy, local liver management becomes an option. This prospective single center study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and adverse events of hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) using percutaneous catheter placement techniques for liver metastases from esophagus squamous (ESC).
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the overall survival benefits of local treatment combined with imatinib(IM) and IM alone in patients suffering from GIST liver metastases. The main question it aims to answer is: • Whether IM combined with hepatic resection (HR) or other local treatments such as radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) has better long-term survival benefits compared to IM monotherapy. Patients are divided into different treatment groups: - IM group - IM combined with HR group - IM combined with RFA or TACE group Researchers will compare the IM + HR group and IM + RFA/TACE group with the IM group to see if it has a better Overall survival (OS).
Lesions blurred by respiratory motion are common in fluorine-18 PET/CT studies. To avoid these artefacts, several standard gating correction technics are available. the investigator aimed to compare the impact of different gating techniques based on phase, amplitude, elastic-motion monitored with and without pressurre sensor device on standardized uptake value (SUVmax and SUVpeak) and uptake volume (UV) measurements on different sizes of pulmonary and liver lesions. The feasability of this study will be done using anthropomorphic coupled with a motion phantom and on a series of patients.
Despite the worldwide increase of both obesity and use of minimally invasive liver surgery(MILS), evidence regarding the safety and eventual benefits of MILS in obese patients is scarce. The aim of this study is therefore to compare the outcomes of non-obese and obese patients(BMI 18.5-29.9 and BMI≥30, respectively) undergoing MILS and OLS, and to assess trends in MILS use among obese patients. In this retrospective cohort study, patients operated at 20 hospitals in eight countries(2009-2019) will be included and the characteristics and outcomes of non-obese and obese patients will be compared. Thereafter, the outcomes of MILS and OLS were compared in both groups after propensity-score matching(PSM). Changes in the adoption of MILS during the study period will be investigated.
For patients with initially unresectable colorectal liver metastasis (IU-CRLM) receiving effective conversion therapy, disease relapse after conversion hepatectomy is common due to the extensive tumor load. Yet, few studies have focused on the assessment and management of relapse after conversion hepatectomy for IU-CRLM. This study aimed to investigate the impact of surgical management for relapse after conversion hepatectomy in IU-CRLM.
Retrospective analysis of a prospectively collected database of 170 patients between 2004 and 2020, who underwent liver resections for CRLM (colorectal liver metastases) at The Queen Elizabeth Hospital trying to determine rates and patterns of recurrence following liver resections for CRLM and concurrently, characterise clinical, pathological and treatment-related factors that could function as predictors of recurrence or survival, particularly neoadjuvant chemotherapy and tumour clearance.
Laparoscopic liver resection (LLR) has gained acceptance as an effective treatment for colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) in selected patients, providing similar oncologic outcomes compared to open liver resection (OLR). A single-center retrospective analysis of a prospectively maintained database was performed. The primary aim of this study was to determine prognostic factors for the survival outcomes associated with LLR for CRLM.
Near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging after an intravenous injection of indocyanine green (ICG) allows for the intraoperative identification of liver anatomy. The investigators have new data that a much lower dose improves this visualization. Confirmation of this hypothesis would mean that ICG can be administered on the same day of surgery in order to augment real-time intraoperative visualization, thereby providing a safe, feasible, and cost-effective strategy for the surgical treatment of liver disease.
