- Predictors of complication after adrenalectomy(2019) SROUGI, Victor; BARBOSA, Joao A. B.; MASSAUD, Isaac; CAVALCANTE, Isadora P.; TANNO, Fabio Y.; ALMEIDA, Madson Q.; SROUGI, Miguel; FRAGOSO, Maria C.; CHAMBO, Jose L.Purpose: To investigate risk factors for complications in patients undergoing adrenalectomy. Materials and Methods: A retrospective search of our institutional database was performed of patients who underwent adrenalectomy, between 2014 and 2018. Clinical parameters and adrenal disorder characteristics were assessed and correlated to intra and post-operative course. Complications were analyzed within 30-days after surgery. A logistic regression was performed in order to identify independent predictors of morbidity in patients after adrenalectomy. Results: The files of 154 patients were reviewed. Median age and Body Mass Index (BMI) were 52-years and 27.8kg/m(2), respectively. Mean tumor size was 4.9 +/- 4cm. Median surgery duration and estimated blood loss were 140min and 50mL, respectively. There were six conversions to open surgery. Minor and major post-operative complications occurred in 17.5% and 8.4% of the patients. Intra-operative complications occurred in 26.6% of the patients. Four patients died. Mean hospitalization duration was 4-days (Interquartile Range: 3-8). Patients age (p=0.004), comorbidities (p=0.003) and pathological diagnosis (p=0.003) were independent predictors of post-operative complications. Tumor size (p<0.001) and BMI (p=0.009) were independent predictors of intra-operative complications. Pathological diagnosis (p<0.001) and Charlson score (p=0.013) were independent predictors of death. Conclusion: Diligent care is needed with older patients, with multiple comorbidities and harboring unfavorable adrenal disorders (adrenocortical carcinoma and pheocromocytoma), who have greater risk of post-operative complications. Patients with elevated BMI and larger tumors have higher risk of intra, but not of post-operative complications.
- Infiltrative Tumor Borders in Colorectal Liver Metastasis: Should We Enlarge Margin Size?(2021) JAYME, Vitoria Ramos; FONSECA, Gilton Marques; AMARAL, Isaac Massaud Amim; COELHO, Fabricio Ferreira; KRUGER, Jaime Arthur Pirola; JEISMANN, Vagner Birk; PINHEIRO, Rafael Soares Nunes; MELLO, Evandro Sobroza de; HERMAN, PauloBackground Surgery is the only potentially curative treatment for colorectal cancer liver metastases (CRLMs). Despite an improvement in results following resection, recurrence rates remain high. Many histopathological features have been reported as prognostic factors. Infiltrative borders are known to be associated with worse prognosis; however, margin size has never been evaluated together with the type of tumor border. In the present study, we analyzed the prognosis of patients with resected CRLM according to tumor growth pattern (TGP) and whether a larger margin size would bring any prognostic benefit. Patients and Methods Medical records from a prospective database of 645 patients who underwent hepatic resection for CRLM between January 2004 and December 2019 at a single center were reviewed, and 266 patients were included in the analytic cohort. TGP (pushing or infiltrative) was evaluated regarding the impact in overall and disease-free survival. The impact of margin size (<= or > 1 cm) on survival and hepatic recurrence according to TGP was also evaluated. Results TGP was defined as infiltrative in 182 cases (68.4%) and pushing in 84 patients (31.6%). Patients with infiltrative-type border presented worse overall survival and disease-free survival, as well as higher intrahepatic recurrence (p < 0.05). Larger margin size did not impact the prognosis of patients with infiltrative borders. Conclusions Patients with infiltrative-type border present worse prognosis and higher intrahepatic recurrence. Larger margin size (> 1 cm) does not change the prognosis in patients with infiltrative border, showing that tumor biology is the most important factor for survival.
