Adj HIPEC with Ox during 30 minutes did not improve the Recurrence Free Survival in COLOPEC trial, however adjuvant HIPEC with MMC improved the locoregional control rate at 3 y in HIPECT4 trial. jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…

Happy to share our work from @metrohealthCLE (FREE download from @SurgJournal until December 23!) on #MALS.
For MALS surgeons out there, are you routinely performing a ganglionectomy and lymphadenectomy?

Today: #CAMINO trial #CRLM published in @TheLancetOncol; great team effort with @EAHPBA surgeons & radiologists from 14 centers 🇳🇱🇳🇴🇮🇹🇧🇪
✅#MRI changes clinical management in 32% of 298 patients scheduled for #surgery / #ablation of #colorectal #livermetastases based on CT only.
✅Results confirmed by “blinded” expert panel.

Should pts w/ #idiopathic #pancreatitis undergo EUS? How often #surgery 🔪 required?
#PICUS trial: 105 pts IAP, 24 centers 🇳🇱; EUS found a cause in 32%; biliary (24%) - #cholecystectomy, chronic pancreatitis (7%), and neoplasm (3%) - #pancreatoduodenectomy
IAP recurrence in 1-year:
17% with negative EUS ❌
6% with positive EUS ✅

The first ever Radiomics 👾 preoperative fistula risk score !!!
Development 🇳🇱 and external validation 🇮🇹
🐳 The radiomics-based preop FRS performed similarly to the existing scores ( ROC 0.8)
💪 Great added value considering only CT derived data!

We know that the risk of small intestinal NETs (siNETs) is increased among 1st degree relatives - I am following a few families. This GWAS study identified 4 novel risk loci for small intestinal NETs including a missense mutation in LGR5. Very interesting

Important paper. Can ChatGTP give patients the wrong information. Study finds nearly a third of recs were not concordant with NCCN guidelines. Garbage in ➡️ garbage out. We saw this during Covid. @JAMAOnc @SWOG @DavendraSohal jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…

A twist in the management of small (1.1 to 2 cm) nonfunctional panc NETs or not...? This NCDB study suggested a survival benefit of resection after adjusting for various pre-op factors. I still support observation of NF pNETs ≤2 cm. What do others think?
