Introduction
Outcome after hepatic resection for colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRLM) is heterogeneous and accurate predictors of survival are lacking. This study analyzes the prognostic relevance of pathologic details of the primary colorectal tumor in patients undergoing hepatic resection for CRLM.Methods
Retrospective review of a prospective database identified patients who underwent resection for CRLM. Clinicopathological variables were investigated and their association with outcome was analyzed.Results
From 1997–2007, 1,004 patients underwent hepatic resection for CRLM. The median follow-up was 59 months with a 5-year survival of 47 %. Univariate analysis identified nine factors associated with poor survival; three of these related to the primary tumor: lymphovascular invasion (LVI, p < 0.0001), perineural invasion (p = 0.005), and degree of regional lymph node involvement (N0 vs. N1 vs. N2, p < 0.0001). Multivariate analysis identified seven factors associated with poor survival, two of which related to the primary tumor: LVI (hazard ratio (HR) 1.3, 95 % confidence interval (CI) 1.06–1.64, p = 0.01) and degree of regional lymph node involvement [N1 (HR 1.3, 95 % CI 1.04–1.69, p = 0.02) vs. N2 (HR 1.7, 95 % CI 1.27–2.21, p < 0.0005)]. A significant decrease in survival along the spectrum of patients ranging from LVI negative/N0 to LVI positive/N2 was present. Patients who were LVI-positive/N2 had a median survival of 40 months compared with 74 months for patients who were LVI-negative/NO (p < 0.0001).Conclusions
Histopathologic details of the primary colorectal tumor, particularly LVI and the detailed assessment of the degree of lymph node involvement, are strong predictors of survival. Future biomarker studies should consider exploring factors related to the primary colorectal tumor. 相似文献2.

Background
For esophageal adenocarcinoma treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy, postoperative staging classifications initially developed for non-pretreated tumors may not accurately predict prognosis. We tested whether a multifactorial TNM-based histopathologic prognostic score (PRSC), which additionally applies to tumor regression, may improve estimation of prognosis compared with the current Union for International Cancer Control/American Joint Committee on Cancer (UICC) staging system.Patients and Methods
We evaluated esophageal adenocarcinoma specimens following cis/oxaliplatin-based therapy from two separate centers (center 1: n = 280; and center 2: n = 80). For the PRSC, each factor was assigned a value from 1 to 2 (ypT0-2 = 1 point; ypT3-4 = 2 points; ypN0 = 1 point; ypN1-3 = 2 points; ≤50 % residual tumor/tumor bed = 1 point; >50 % residual tumor/tumor bed = 2 points). The three-tiered PRSC was based on the sum value of these factors (group A: 3; group B: 4–5; group C: 6) and was correlated with patients’ overall survival (OS).Results
The PRSC groups showed significant differences with respect to OS (p < 0.0001; hazard ratio [HR] 2.2 [95 % CI 1.7–2.8]), which could also be demonstrated in both cohorts separately (center 1 p < 0.0001; HR 2.48 [95 % CI 1.8–3.3] and center 2 p = 0.015; HR 1.7 [95 % CI 1.1–2.6]). Moreover, the PRSC showed a more accurate prognostic discrimination than the current UICC staging system (p < 0.0001; HR 1.15 [95 % CI 1.1–1.2]), and assessment of two goodness-of-fit criteria (Akaike Information Criterion and Schwarz Bayesian Information Criterion) clearly supported the superiority of PRSC over the UICC staging.Conclusion
The proposed PRSC clearly identifies three subgroups with different outcomes and may be more helpful for guiding further therapeutic decisions than the UICC staging system. 相似文献3.

Purpose
We sought the association of preoperative serum total testosterone (tT), hypogonadism, 17β estradiol (E2), and sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) with early biochemical recurrence (BCR) after radical prostatectomy (RP).Methods
Sex steroids were assessed the day before surgery (7–11 a.m.) in a cohort of 605 patients with a median follow-up of 24 months following RP. Cox regression models tested the association between predictors [including age, body mass index (BMI), prostate-specific antigen (PSA), clinical stage, biopsy Gleason scores, tT, hypogonadism, E2, and SHBG] and early BCR (defined as a PSA ≥ 0.1 ng/ml that occurred within 24 months after RP).Results
Early BCR was found in 34 (5.6 %) patients. Patients with BCR did not differ in terms of age, BMI, serum PSA, tT, E2, and SHBG levels, rate of hypogonadism, and clinical stage as compared with those without BCR (all p ≥ 0.05). Conversely, patients with BCR showed a greater prevalence of biopsy Gleason scores ≥4 + 3 (all p ≤ 0.001). At multivariable Cox regression analysis, tT [hazard ratio (HR): 1.43; p = 0.03] E2 (HR: 1.05; p = 0.04), SHBG (HR: 1.29; p = 0.02), and biopsy Gleason scores equal to 4 + 3 (HR: 3.37; p = 0.04) and ≥8 (HR: 20.06; p < 0.001) achieved independent predictor status for early BCR. Conversely, no significant associations were found for all the other predictors.Conclusions
Current findings show that preoperative serum sex steroids are independent predictors of early BCR in a homogeneous, large cohort of nonscreened patients treated with RP. 相似文献4.

Introduction
The benefit of an operation to remove the primary tumor among patients with synchronous stage IV colorectal cancer is controversial. This study analyzed the survival benefits associated with primary tumor resection among chemotherapy-treated stage IV colorectal cancer patients.Methods
The study analyzed 11,716 chemotherapy-treated stage IV colorectal cancer patients in the California Cancer Registry between 1996 and 2007, with follow-up through 2009. Patients were stratified into operation and non-operation groups. Estimates of median overall and colorectal cancer-specific survival were generated.Results
Patients undergoing operation compared to those who are not had higher median overall and colorectal cancer-specific survival, 21 versus 10 months (p?<?0.0001) and 22 versus 12 months (p?<?0.0001), respectively. Patients who were offered surgery but refused had decreased median overall and colorectal cancer-specific survival when compared to patients who underwent resection, 8 versus 21 months (p?<?0.001) and 7 versus 22 months (p?<?0.001), respectively. In multivariate regression models, patients who underwent resection of primary tumor had improved overall (hazard ratio (HR), 0.42; 95 % confidence interval (CI) 0.40–0.44, p?<?0.0001) and colorectal cancer-specific survival (HR, 0.43; 95 % CI, 0.41–0.45; p?<?0.0001).Conclusion
Primary tumor resection is associated with improved survival among stage IV chemotherapy-treated colorectal cancer patients. 相似文献5.

Purpose
We investigated the influence of positive surgical margins (PSMs) and their locations on biochemical recurrence (BCR) according to risk stratification and surgical modality.Methods
A total of 1,874 post-radical-prostatectomy (RP) patients of pT2–T3a between 2000 and 2010 at three tertiary centers, and who did not receive neoadjuvant/adjuvant therapy, were included in this study. Patients were stratified according to BCR risk: low risk (PSA <10, pT2a-b, and pGS ≤6), intermediate risk (PSA 10–20 and/or pT2c and/or pGS 7), and high risk (PSA >20 or pT3a or pGS 8–10). The median follow-up was 43 months.Results
PSMs were a significant predictor of BCR in both the intermediate- and high-risk-disease groups (P = .001, HR 2.1, 95 % CI 1.3–3.4; P < .001, HR 2.8, 95 % CI 2.0–4.1). Positive apical margin was a significant risk factor for BCR in high-risk disease (P = .003, HR 2.0, 95 % CI 1.2–3.3), but not in intermediate-risk disease (P = .06, HR 1.7, 95 % CI 0.9–3.1). Positive bladder neck margin was a significant risk factor for BCR in both intermediate- and high-risk disease (P < .001, HR 5.4, 95 % CI 2.1–13.8; P = .001, HR 4.5, 95 % CI 1.8–11.4). In subgroup analyses, robotic RP provided comparable BCR-free survival regardless of risk stratification. Patients with PSMs showed similar BCR-free survival between open and robotic RP (log-rank, P = .897).Conclusions
Post-RP PSMs were a significantly independent predictor of disease progression in high-risk disease as well as intermediate-risk disease. Both positive apical and bladder neck margins are also significant risk factors of BCR in high-risk disease. Patients with PSMs showed similar BCR-free survival between open and robotic surgery. 相似文献6.

Purpose
Contemporary tools estimating increased risk of prostate cancer (PCa) relapse after radical prostatectomy (RP) are far from perfect and there has been an intensive search for additional predictive variables. We aimed to explore whether the parameters of postoperative ultrasensitive prostate-specific antigen (PSA) decline provide additional information for predicting PCa progression.Methods
A total of 319 consecutive men, with at least 2 years of follow-up after RP for clinically localized PCa were subjected to this study. Intensive postoperative measurements of ultrasensitive PSA resulted in total of 4028 PSA values available for statistical evaluation. Biochemical recurrence (BCR) was defined as PSA ≥0.2 ng/ml. The accuracy of predictive models was quantified with the area under the curve.Results
Over a median follow-up of 43 months (24–99 months), 107 patients (34 %) experienced BCR after RP. In patients with BCR, significantly higher values of PSA nadir (p < 0.001) and a decreased time interval from surgery to reach PSA nadir (p < 0.001) were observed. A multivariable Cox regression model confirmed that PSA nadir >0.01 ng/ml (HR 6.01, 95 % CI: 3.89–9.52) and time to PSA nadir <3 months (HR 2.86, 95 % CI: 1.74–5.01) were independent predictors of BCR. The inclusion of PSA nadir and the time to PSA nadir into the model resulted in improvement of predictive accuracy by 16 % over the model designed on the basis of established parameters.Conclusions
Our results demonstrate that the level of PSA nadir and the time to PSA nadir determined by ultrasensitive assay significantly improve the identification of patients who are at high risk of disease recurrence after RP. 相似文献7.

Background
Excellent long-term outcomes have been reported recently for patients with small (≤2 cm) hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the significance of microvascular invasion (MVI) in small HCC remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of MVI in small HCC up to 2 cm.Methods
In 1,109 patients with solitary HCC from six major international hepatobiliary centers, the impact of MVI on long-term survival in patients with small HCC (≤2 cm) and patients with tumors larger than 2 cm was analyzed.Results
In patients with small HCC, long-term survival was not affected by MVI (p = 0.8), whereas in patients with larger HCC, significantly worse survival was observed in patients with MVI (p < 0.0001). In multivariate analysis, MVI (hazard ratio [HR] 1.59; 95 % confidence interval (CI) 1.27–1.99; p < 0.001), elevated alpha-fetoprotein (HR 1.41; 95 % CI 1.11–1.8; p = 0.005), and higher histologic grade (HR 1.29; 95 % CI 1.01–1.64; p = 0.04) were significant predictors of worse survival in patients with HCC larger than 2 cm but were not correlated with long-term survival in small HCC. When the cohort was divided into three groups—HCC ≤2, >2 cm without MVI, and HCC >2 cm with MVI—significant between-group survival difference was observed (p < 0.0001).Conclusions
Small HCC is associated with an excellent prognosis that is not affected by the presence of MVI. The discriminatory power of the 7th edition of the AJCC classification for solitary HCC could be further improved by subdividing tumors according to size (≤2 vs. >2 cm). 相似文献8.

Context
Despite the large diffusion of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP), literature and data on the oncologic outcome of RARP are limited.Objective
Evaluate lymph node yield, positive surgical margins (PSMs), use of adjuvant therapy, and biochemical recurrence (BCR)–free survival following RARP and perform a cumulative analysis of all studies comparing the oncologic outcomes of RARP and retropubic radical prostatectomy (RRP) or laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (LRP).Evidence acquisition
A systematic review of the literature was performed in August 2011, searching Medline, Embase, and Web of Science databases. A free-text protocol using the term radical prostatectomy was applied. The following limits were used: humans; gender (male); and publications dating from January 1, 2008. A cumulative analysis was conducted using Review Manager software v.4.2 (Cochrane Collaboration, Oxford, UK) and Stata 11.0 SE software (StataCorp, College Station, TX, USA).Evidence synthesis
We retrieved 79 papers evaluating oncologic outcomes following RARP. The mean PSM rate was 15% in all comers and 9% in pathologically localized cancers, with some tumor characteristics being the most relevant predictors of PSMs. Several surgeon-related characteristics or procedure-related issues may play a major role in PSM rates. With regard to BCR, the very few papers with a follow-up duration >5 yr demonstrated 7-yr BCR-free survival estimates of approximately 80%. Finally, all the cumulative analyses comparing RARP with RRP and comparing RARP with LRP demonstrated similar overall PSM rates (RARP vs RRP: odds ratio [OR]: 1.21; p = 0.19; RARP vs LRP: OR: 1.12; p = 0.47), pT2 PSM rates (RARP vs RRP: OR: 1.25; p = 0.31; RARP vs LRP: OR: 0.99; p = 0.97), and BCR-free survival estimates (RARP vs RRP: hazard ratio [HR]: 0.9; p = 0.526; RARP vs LRP: HR: 0.5; p = 0.141), regardless of the surgical approach.Conclusions
PSM rates are similar following RARP, RRP, and LRP. The few data available on BCR from high-volume centers are promising, but definitive comparisons with RRP or LRP are not currently possible. Finally, significant data on cancer-specific mortality are not currently available. 相似文献9.

Background
This study is a systematic review and meta-analysis that compares the short- and long-term outcomes of laparoscopic gastric resection (LR) versus open gastric resection (OR) for gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs).Methods
Comparative studies reporting the outcomes of LR and OR for GIST were reviewed.Results
A total of 11 nonrandomized studies reviewed 765 patients: 381 LR and 384 OR. A higher proportion of high-risk tumors and gastrectomies were in the OR compared with LR (odds ratio, 3.348; 95 % CI, 1.248–8.983; p = .016) and (odds ratio, .169; 95 % CI, .090–.315; p < .001), respectively. Intraoperative blood loss was significantly lower in the LR group [weighted mean difference (WMD), ?86.508 ml; 95 % CI, ?141.184 to ?31.831 ml; p < .002]. The LR group was associated with a significantly lower risk of minor complications (odds ratio, .517; 95 % CI, .277–.965; p = .038), a decreased postoperative hospital stay (WMD, ?3.421 days; 95 % CI, ?4.737 to ?2.104 days; p < .001), a shorter time to first flatus (WMD, ?1.395 days; 95 % CI, ?1.655 to ?1.135 days; p < .001), and shorter time for resumption of oral intake (WMD, ?1.887 days; 95 % CI, ?2.785 to ?.989 days; p < .001). There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups with regard to operation time (WMD, 5.731 min; 95 % CI, ?15.354–26.815 min; p = .594), rate of major complications (odds ratio, .631; 95 % CI, .202–1.969; p = .428), margin positivity (odds ratio, .501; 95 % CI, .157–1.603; p = .244), local recurrence rate (odds ratio, .629; 95 % CI, .208–1.903; p = .412), recurrence-free survival (RFS) (odds ratio, 1.28; 95 % CI, .705–2.325; p = .417), and overall survival (OS) (odds ratio, 1.879; 95 % CI, .591–5.979; p = .285).Conclusions
LR results in superior short-term postoperative outcomes without compromising oncological safety and long-term oncological outcomes compared with OR. 相似文献10.

Purpose
To assess the impact of perioperative blood transfusion on overall and disease-free survival in patients undergoing curative resection for cholangiocarcinoma.Methods
In a single-center study, 128 patients undergoing curative resection for cholangiocarcinoma between 2001 and 2010 were assessed. The median follow-up period was 19 months. Transfused and nontransfused patients were compared by Cox regression and propensity score analyses.Results
Overall, 38 patients (29.7 %) received blood transfusions. The patient characteristics were highly biased with respect to receiving transfusions (propensity score 0.69 ± 0.22 vs. 0.11 ± 0.16, p < 0.001). In the unadjusted analysis, blood transfusion was associated with a 105 % increased risk of mortality [hazard ratio (HR) 2.05, 95 % CI 1.19–3.51, p = 0.010]. In the multivariate (HR 1.14, 95 % CI 0.52–2.48, p = 0.745) and the propensity score-adjusted Cox regression (HR 1.02, 95 % CI 0.39–2.62, p = 0.974), blood transfusion had no influence on overall survival. Similarly, in the propensity score-adjusted Cox regression (HR 0.62, 95 % CI 0.24–1.58, p = 0.295), no relevant effect of blood transfusion on disease-free survival was observed.Conclusions
To our knowledge, this is the first propensity score-based analysis providing compelling evidence that the worse oncological outcome after curative resection for advanced cholangiocarcinoma in patients receiving perioperative blood transfusions is caused by the clinical circumstances requiring the transfusions, not by the blood transfusions themselves. 相似文献11.

Background
Variability in colon cancer recurrence after laparoscopic colectomy (LAC) remains poorly understood. The aim of our study was to quantify the influence of LAC on colon cancer recurrence patterns.Methods
We included 986 patients undergoing curative colectomy at our institution between 1992 and 2008. Kaplan–Meier, multivariable Cox regression, propensity score adjustment, and competing risks modeling were used to evaluate the influence of laparoscopic surgery on the site of colon cancer recurrence, including the following: liver metastasis, lung metastasis, local recurrence, peritoneal dissemination, other, and multiple sites. We estimated the risk factors for each recurrence site.Results
Laparoscopic surgery was used in 419 (42.5 %) of 986 patients, with an overall median follow-up time of 5.0 years (interquartile range 3.5). The overall 5-year disease-free survival rate was 86.1 % (open surgery 81.8 % vs. laparoscopic surgery 92.0 %; p < 0.001). However, after covariates and propensity score adjustment, laparoscopic surgery was not a significant risk factor for each type of recurrence: liver hazard ratio (HR) 0.93 (95 % CI 0.45–1.89), p = 0.84; lung HR 0.67 (95 % CI 0.26–1.70), p = 0.39; local HR 0.56 (95 % CI 0.12–2.63), p = 0.46; peritoneal HR 2.49 (95 % CI 0.75–8.27), p = 0.14; others HR 0.47 (95 % CI 0.04–5.13), p = 0.53; multiple HR 0.88 (95 % CI 0.25–3.14), p = 0.84. The risk factors for each type of recurrence were variable and characterized by specific clinicopathological features.Conclusion
Our study reveals that LAC and open colectomy demonstrate comparable overall colon cancer recurrence rates and recurrence sites. Specific clinicopathological characteristics may have a stronger influence on colon cancer recurrence site compared with the surgical technique. 相似文献12.

Background
Unplanned readmissions after colorectal surgery impact patient and financial outcomes. Our goal was to identify factors related to readmission in ostomy reversal patients.Methods
Review of a prospective department database was performed from 2006 to 2012 to identify patients who underwent an ostomy reversal. Patients were stratified into nonreadmitted and readmitted within 30 days of ostomy reversal. The main outcome measures were predictors of readmission and characteristics of patients readmitted and not readmitted.Results
A total of 351 ostomy reversals (86 % ileostomy and 14 % colostomy) were analyzed; 44 patients were readmitted (12.5 %). Readmitted and nonreadmitted patients were similar in age, body mass index, gender, comorbidities, indications for the index operation, and time to ostomy reversal. Readmitted patients had longer operative times (p = 0.002) and length of stay (p = 0.001), more intraoperative blood loss (p = 0.003), intraoperative complications (p = 0.005), ICU requirements (p < 0.0001), need for temporary nursing at discharge (p < 0.001), and higher total hospital costs than nonreadmitted patients (p = 0.0162). Longer operative time [odds ratio (OR) 1.006, 95 % confidence interval (CI) 1.001–1.012], intraoperative complications (OR 7.334, 95 % CI 1.23–43.761), ICU stay (OR 1.291, 95 % CI 1.18–1.893), delayed discharge (OR 1.085, 95 % CI 1.003–1.173), and discharge to skilled nursing facility (OR 6.936, 95 % CI 1.531–31.332) were independent predictors of readmission. Ostomy type had no independent effect on readmission.Conclusions
Differences in perioperative and outcomes variables exist between readmitted and nonreadmitted patients after ostomy reversal. Longer operative times, intraoperative complications, intensive care unit care, longer length of stay, and skilled nursing at discharge were independently predictive of readmission. These findings can be used to identify high-risk patients prospectively, potentially improving clinical outcomes and healthcare utilization. 相似文献13.

Purpose
Preventable readmissions represent a major burden on the health care system and risk stratification of patients can help direct costly resources. This study examines patient characteristics, surgical factors, and postoperative complications associated with 30-day postoperative readmissions in gastrointestinal (GI) resections.Methods
Inpatients undergoing major GI surgery were selected from the 2011 American College of Surgeons (ACS) National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (NSQIP) database. Resections were classified into foregut, small bowel, colorectal, liver, and pancreatic using Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) codes. Postoperative complications were divided into pre- and post-discharge groups using time to complication and discharge. Univariate analysis compared patient and surgical characteristics and pre-discharge complications with 30-day unplanned readmission rates. Factors with a p value <0.1 were included in multivariate logistic regression. A p value <0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results
For 42,609 patients undergoing GI resection, the overall 30-day unplanned readmission rate was 12.3 % ranging from 11.8 % for colorectal resections to 16.3 % for pancreatic resections. Major predictors of 30-day readmissions included pre-discharge major complications (odds ratio [OR]?=?1.28, 95 % confidence interval [CI] 1.18–1.39, p?<?0.0001), chronic steroid use (OR?=?1.67, 95 % CI 1.50–1.86, p?<?0.0001), operative time ≥4 h (OR?=?1.45, 95 % CI 1.35–1.56, p?<?0.0001) and discharge to a facility other than home (OR?=?1.37, 95 % CI 1.23–1.50, p?<?0.0001).Conclusions
Unplanned 30-day readmissions represent a major clinical and financial concern, but some may be foreseeable and potentially modifiable. This model provides insight into factors that could inform resource utilization and postoperative care to help prevent readmissions in select GI surgical patients. 相似文献14.

Purpose
Pathologic downstaging following chemotherapy for stage III-N2 NSCLC is a well-known positive prognostic indicator. However, the predictive factors for locoregional recurrence (LRR) in these patients are largely unknown.Methods
Between 1998 and 2008, 153 patients with clinically or pathologically staged III-N2 NSCLC from two cancer centers in the United States were treated with induction chemotherapy and surgery. All had pathologic N0-1 disease, and none received postoperative radiotherapy. LRR were defined as recurrence at the surgical site, lymph nodes (levels 1–14 including supraclavicular), or both.Results
Median follow-up was 39.3 months. Pretreatment N2 status was confirmed pathologically (18.2 %) or by PET/CT (81.8 %). Overall, the 5-year LRR rate was 30.8 % (n = 38), with LRR being the first site of failure in 51 % (22/+99877943). Five-year overall survival for patients with LRR compared with those without was 21 versus 60.1 % (p < 0.001). Using multivariate analysis, significant predictors for LRR were pN1 disease at time of surgery (p < 0.001, HR 3.43, 95 % CI 1.80–6.56) and a trend for squamous histology (p = 0.072, HR 1.93, 95 % CI 0.94–3.98). Five-year LRR rate for pN1 versus pN0 disease was 62 versus 20 %. Neither single versus multistation N2 disease (p = 0.291) nor initial staging technique (p = 0.306) were predictors for LRR. N1 status also was predictive for higher distant recurrence (p = 0.021, HR 1.91, 95 % CI 1.1–3.3) but only trended for poorer survival (p = 0.123, HR 1.48, 95 % CI 0.9–2.44).Conclusions
LRR remains high in resected stage III-N2 NSCLC patients after induction chemotherapy and nodal downstaging, particularly in patients with persistent N1 disease. 相似文献15.

Purpose
There is a lack of studies comparing shock wave lithotripsy (SWL), retrograde intrarenal surgery (RIRS) and minimally invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy (MIP) in renal stone treatment. This study compared treatment outcome, stone-free rate (SFR) and stone-free survival (SFS) with regard to stone size and localization.Methods
This analysis included 482 first-time-treated patients in the period 2001–2007. Detailed clinical information, stone analysis and metabolic evaluation were evaluated retrospectively. Outcome, SFR and SFS were analyzed with regard to size (<1 vs. ≥1 cm) and localization (lower vs. non-lower pole).Results
Higher SFRs in lower and non-lower pole stones ≥1 cm were confirmed for RIRS and MIP (p < 0.0001). A regression model confirmed a higher risk of non-lower pole stone persistence for SWL versus RIRS (OR: 2.27, p = 0.034, SWL vs. MIP (OR: 3.23, p = 0.009) and larger stone burden ≥1 versus <1 cm (OR: 2.43, p = 0.006). In accordance, a higher risk of residual stones was found in the lower pole for SWL versus RIRS (OR: 2.67, p = 0.009), SWL versus MIP (OR: 4.75, p < 0.0001) and stones ≥1 cm versus <1 cm (OR: 3.02, p = 0.0006). In RIRS and MIP patients, more complications, stenting, prolonged disability, need/duration of hospitalization and analgesia were noticed (p < 0.05). Overall SFS increased from SWL, RIRS, to MIP (p < 0.001). SWL showed lower SFS for non-lower pole (p = 0.006) and lower pole stones (p = 0.007).Conclusions
RIRS and MIP were shown to have higher stone-free rates and SFS compared to SWL. The price for better outcome was higher, considering tolerable complication rates. Despite larger preoperative stone burden, MIP achieved high and long-term treatment success. 相似文献16.

Introduction
Melanoma microsatellitosis is classified as stage IIIB/C disease and is associated with a poor prognosis. Prognostic factors within this group, however, have not been well characterized.Methods
We performed a retrospective analysis of 1,621 patients undergoing sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy at our institution (1996–2011) to compare patients with (n = 98) and patients without (n = 1,523) microsatellites. Univariate and multivariate logistic and Cox regression analyses were used to identify factors associated with SLN positivity and melanoma-specific survival (MSS) in patients with microsatellites.Results
Patients with microsatellites were older and had lesions with higher Clark level and greater thickness that more frequently had mitoses, ulceration, and lymphovascular invasion (LVI) (all p < 0.0001). In microsatellite patients, the SLN positivity rate was 43 %. Lesional ulceration (odds ratio [OR] = 2.9, 95 % confidence interval [CI] 1.5–8.6), absent tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (OR = 2.8, 95 % CI 1.1–7.1), and LVI (OR = 3.3, 95 % CI 1.7–10) were significantly associated with SLN positivity by multivariate analysis. With a median follow-up of 4.5 years in survivors, ulceration (hazards ratio [HR] = 3.4, 95 % CI 1.5–7.8) and >1 metastatic LN (HR = 2.7, 95 % CI 1.1–6.6) were significantly associated with decreased MSS by multivariate analysis. In patients without these prognostic factors, the 5-year MSS was 90 % (n = 49) compared with 50 % (n = 23) among patients with ulceration only, 51 % (n = 12) in those with >1 metastatic LN only, or 25 % in those with both (n = 14, p < 0.01).Discussion
Microsatellitosis was frequently associated with multiple adverse pathologic features. In the absence of ulceration and >1 metastatic LN; however, the outcome for patients with microsatellites compared favorably to stage IIIB patients overall. 相似文献17.

Objective
It is unclear whether novice trainees can be taught safely to perform adult cardiac surgery without any impact on early or late outcomes.Methods
All patients (n = 1305) data were obtained from an externally validated, mandatory institutional database (2003–2010). ‘Novice’ is defined as a trainee who required substantial assistance or supervision to perform part or whole of the specified procedure (Intercollegiate Surgical Curriculum Programme UK, Competency Level ≤2). Outcome measures were in-hospital mortality, composite score of in-hospital mortality-morbidities, mid-term survival and revascularisation rate after CABG. Follow-up up to 7 years (median 3.2 years) was determined.Results
Some 39 % (n = 510) of the cases involved novice (28 %-part, 11 %-whole procedure), 12 % (n = 157) competent trainees and 49 % (n = 638) consultant. Median EuroSCORE was higher in consultant group (p < 0.001). Without risk adjustment, composite outcome score and mid-term mortality were higher in consultant group (p = 0.03). With adjustment using EuroSCORE and propensity scores, EuroSCORE was significantly predictive of in-hospital mortality [odd ratio (OR) 1.38, 95 %CI 1.20–1.57, p < 0.001], composite outcome (OR 1.26, 95 %CI 1.15–1.37, p < 0.001) and mid-term mortality (HR 1.24, 95 %CI 1.18–1.31, p < 0.001) but not the operator categories. Further analysis of subcohort undergoing first-time, isolated CABG (n = 1070) showed that EuroSCORE remained predictive of adjusted in-hospital mortality (OR 1.39, 95 %CI 1.13–1.71, p = 0.002), composite outcome (OR 1.33, 95 %CI 1.19–1.49, p < 0.001) and mid-term mortality (HR 1.22, 95 %CI 1.10–1.35, p < 0.001). The operator categories were not associated with adjusted outcome measures including revascularisation rate after CABG.Conclusion
Supervised training in adult cardiac surgery can be achieved safely at the early learning curve phase without compromising both early and mid-term clinical outcomes. 相似文献19.

Background
Postmastectomy radiation (PMRT) in T1–T2 tumors with 1–3 positive axillary lymph nodes (ALNs) is controversial. Impact of molecular subtype (MST) on locoregional recurrence (LRR) and PMRT benefit is uncertain. We examined the association between MST and LRR, recurrence-free survival (RFS), and overall survival (OS), in T1–T2 tumors with 1–3 positive ALNs.Methods
From an institutional database, we identified mastectomy patients with 1–3 positive ALNs between 1995 and 2006. Patients who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy, had T3–T4 tumors, or ≥4 positive ALNs were excluded. MST was defined as: hormone receptor (HR)+/HER2?(luminal A/B), HR+/HER2+(luminal HER2), HR?/HER2+(HER2), and HR?/HER2?(basal). Kaplan–Meier method and Cox regression analysis were used to examine association between MST and LRR, RFS, and OS.Results
This study included 884 patients (700 no PMRT, 141 PMRT): 72.8 % luminal A/B, 7.8 % luminal HER2, 6.8 % HER2, and 12.6 % basal. Median follow-up was 6.3 years; 39 LRRs occurred. Luminal A/B subtype had the smallest tumors (p = 0.03), lowest intraductal component (p = 0.01), histologic grade (p < 0.0001), lymphovascular invasion (LVI) (p = 0.008), and multifocality/multicentricity (p = 0.02). On univariate analyses, there was no association between MST and LRR. MST was associated with RFS and OS; the basal and HER2 subtype had the lowest RFS (p = 0.0002) and OS (p < 0.0001). On multivariate analysis, only age ≤50 years (p = 0.003) and presence of LVI (p = 0.0003) were predictive of LRR; MST was not (p = 0.38).Conclusion
In patients with T1–T2 breast cancer and 1–3 positive lymph nodes who did not receive PMRT, MST was not an independent predictor of LRR and may not be useful in selecting PMRT candidates in that group. 相似文献20.
