- A novel approach for the treatment of pelvic abscess: transrectal endoscopic drainage facilitated by transanal endoscopic microsurgery access(2012) MARTINS, B. C.; MARQUES, Carlos Frederico Sparapan; NAHAS, Caio Sergio Rizkallah; HONDO, Fabio Yuji; POLLARA, Wilson; NAHAS, Sergio Carlos; RIBEIRO JUNIOR, U.; CECCONELLO, Ivan; MALUF-FILHO, FauzePostoperative pelvic abscesses in patients submitted to colorectal surgery are challenging. The surgical approach may be too risky, and image-guided drainage often is difficult due to the complex anatomy of the pelvis. This article describes novel access for drainage of a pelvic collection using a minimally invasive natural orifice approach. A 37 year-old man presented with sepsis due to a pelvic abscess during the second postoperative week after a Hartmann procedure due to perforated rectal cancer. Percutaneous drainage was determined by computed tomography to be unsuccessful, and another operation was considered to be hazardous. Because the pelvic fluid was very close to the rectal stump, transrectal drainage was planned. The rectal stump was opened using transanal endoscopic microsurgery (TEM) instruments. The endoscope was advanced through the TEM working channel and the rectal stump opening, accessing the abdominal cavity and pelvic collection. The pelvic collection was endoscopically drained and the local cavity washed with saline through the scope channel. A Foley catheter was placed in the rectal stump. The patient's recovery after the procedure was successful, without the need for further intervention. Transrectal endoscopic drainage may be an option for selected cases of pelvic fluid collection in patients submitted to Hartmann's procedure. The technique allows not only fluid drainage but also visualization of the local cavity, cleavage of multiloculated abscesses, and saline irrigation if necessary. The use of TEM instrumentation allows safe access to the peritoneal cavity.

However, it carries significant rates of morbidity, sexual/urinary dysfunction, fecal impairment and permanent stoma. The ability to identify patients with a complete or nearly-complete response could help steer patients to less-invasive surgery or a watch-and-wait strategy. Objective: To assess the ability to predict good responders and a favorable prognosis among rectal cancer patients by post-chemoradiation therapy MRI. Patients: Consecutive patients stage T3-4N0M0 or T(any)N+M0 located within 10cm from the anal verge were enrolled. Patients were staged and re-staged 8.8 weeks after the completion of chemoradiation by digital exam, colonoscopy, pelvic-MRI, and thorax and abdominal CT scans. All patients underwent total mesorectal excision with curative intent. Results: Of the total 309 patients, 275 were eligible, and 199 (72.4%) of these were stage III. Restaging-MRI identified 59 (21.4%) T <= 2N0/TRG1-2. Specimen pathologic evaluation revealed 43 (15.6%) patients with a complete pathologic response. Estimates of the accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value of MRIyT=2N0/TRG1-2 for the identification of ypT0N0 were 79.7%, 84.5%, 53.5%, 39%, and 90.7%, respectively. Estimates for the identification of ypN0 were 48.4%, 27.8%, 92%, 88.1%, and 48.4%, respectively. In a multivariate analysis, the only pre-CRT/MRI variables that were associated with an increased risk of lymph node involvement at the specimen were N+ (OR=2.22) and extramural vascular invasion (OR=2.28). MRI yT <= 2N0/TRG1-2 patients showed improved estimated 5-year disease-free survival, but no difference in estimated 5-year survival. Conclusion: Although MRIyT <= 2N0/TRG1-2 cannot predict all cases of a complete pathologic response, it can effectively predict a low rate of lymph node involvement and a better prognosis in patients who undergo total mesorectal excision.- MRI-based radiomic score increased mrTRG accuracy in predicting rectal cancer response to neoadjuvant therapy(2023) MIRANDA, Joao; HORVAT, Natally; ASSUNCAO JR., Antonildes N.; MACHADO, Felipe Augusto de M.; CHAKRABORTY, Jayasree; PANDINI, Rafael Vaz; SARAIVA, Samya; NAHAS, Caio Sergio Rizkallah; NAHAS, Sergio Carlos; NOMURA, Cesar HigaPurpose To develop a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based radiomics score, i.e., ""rad-score,"" and to investigate the performance of rad-score alone and combined with mrTRG in predicting pathologic complete response (pCR) in patients with locally advanced rectal cancer following neoadjuvant chemoradiation therapy. Methods This retrospective study included consecutive patients with LARC who underwent neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy followed by surgery from between July 2011 to November 2015. Volumes of interest of the entire tumor on baseline rectal MRI and of the tumor bed on restaging rectal MRI were manually segmented on T2-weighted images. The radiologist also provided the ymrTRG score on the restaging MRI. Radiomic score (rad-score) was calculated and optimal cut-off points for both mrTRG and rad-score to predict pCR were selected using Youden's J statistic. Results Of 180 patients (mean age = 63 years; 60% men), 33/180 (18%) achieved pCR. High rad-score (> - 1.49) yielded an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.758, comparable to ymrTRG 1-2 which yielded an AUC of 0.759. The combination of high rad-score and ymrTRG 1-2 yielded a significantly higher AUC of 0.836 compared with ymrTRG 1-2 and high rad-score alone (p < 0.001). A logistic regression model incorporating both high rad-score and mrTRG 1-2 was built to calculate adjusted odds ratios for pCR, which was 4.85 (p < 0.001). Conclusion Our study demonstrates that a rectal restaging MRI-based rad-score had comparable diagnostic performance to ymrTRG. Moreover, the combined rad-score and ymrTRG model yielded a significant better diagnostic performance for predicting pCR.
- PROGNOSTIC FACTORS FOR LEFT COLECTOMY FOR COLON CANCER: A TEN YEARS EXPERIENCE OF A SINGLE UNIVERSITY INSTITUTION(2017) NAHAS, Sergio Carlos; NAHAS, Caio Sergio; BUSTAMANTE-LOPEZ, Leonardo Alfonso; PINTO, Rodrigo Ambar; MARQUES, Carlos Frederico Sparapan; CAMPOS, Fabio Guilherme; CECCONELLO, IvanABSTRACT Background: Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer in the world. In Brazil, it is the leading cause of cancer in the gastrointestinal tract. Aim: To evaluate the preoperative, perioperative, and postoperative risk factors for recurrence and overall survival of patients with left colon cancer operated during a ten-year period. Methods: Patients with left colon cancer surgically treated underwent clinical preoperative workout and cancer staging. The following factors were studied: gender, age, tumor location, T stage, lymph node yield, N stage, M stage, histological type, and tumor differentiation. It was analyzed the influence in five-year overall survival. Results: A total of 173 patients underwent left colectomy for colon cancer. There was a slight predominance of male gender with 50.9%. The mean age was 60.8 years old. Fifteen (8.7%) tumors were located at splenic flexure, 126 (72.8%) at sigmoid colon, and 32 (18.5%) at descending colon. The median length of hospital stay was seven days. Mean survival was 47.5 months. At 60 months seven patients (4%) lost follow-up, 38 patients (21.9%) deceased and 135 patients (78%) were alive. Overall survival time was 48 months. Conclusion: Advanced stages (T3-T4, N+ and M+) were the only factors associated with poor long term survival in left colon cancer.
- Preoperative inflammatory markers as prognostic predictors after hepatocellular carcinoma resection: data from a western referral center(2022) SILVA, Joao Paulo Maciel; COELHO, Fabricio Ferreira; CASSENOTE, Alex Jones Flores; JEISMANN, Vagner Birk; FONSECA, Gilton Marques; KRUGER, Jaime Arthur Pirola; MEIRA JUNIOR, Jose Donizeti de; NAHAS, Sergio Carlos; HERMAN, PauloBackground Recent studies from eastern centers have demonstrate an association between inflammatory response and long-term outcomes after hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) resection. However, the prognostic impact of inflammatory markers in western patients, with distinct tumor and epidemiologic features, is still unknown. Aim To evaluate the prognostic impact of preoperative neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR), as well as their impact according to tumor size (< 5 cm, 5-10 cm, > 10 cm) in patients undergoing HCC resection with curative intent. Methods Optimal cut-off values for NLR, PLR, and MLR were determined by plotting the receiver operator curves. Overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) curves were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using the log-rank test. The Cox method was used to identify independent predictors of OS and DFS. Results In total, 161 consecutive adult patients were included. A high NLR (> 1.715) was associated with worse OS (P = 0.018). High NLR (> 2.475; P = 0.047) and PLR (> 100.25; P = 0.028) were predictors of short DFS. In HCC < 5 cm, MLR (> 1.715) was associated with worse OS (P = 0.047). In the multivariate analysis, high PLR was an independent predictor of worse DFS [hazard ratio (HR) 3.029; 95%CI 1.499-6.121; P = 0.002]. Conclusion Inflammatory markers are useful tools to predict long-term outcomes after liver resection in western patients, high NLR was able to stratify subgroups of patients with short OS and DFS, an increased PLR was an independent predictor of short DFS, while high MLR was associated with short OS in patients with early HCC.
- Two decades of liver resection with a multidisciplinary approach in a single institution: What has changed? Analysis of 1409 cases(2022) HERMAN, Paulo; FONSECA, Gilton Marques; COELHO, Fabricio Ferreira; KRUGER, Jaime Arthur Pirola; MAKDISSI, Fabio Ferrari; JEISMANN, Vagner Birk; CARRILHO, Flair Jose; D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz Augusto Carneiro; NAHAS, Sergio CarlosObjectives: To evaluate results of patients undergoing liver resection in a single center over the past two decades with a particular look at Colorectal Liver Metastasis (CRLM) and Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC). Method: Patients were divided into two eras, from 2000 to 2010 (Era 1) and 2011 to 2020 (Era 2). The most frequent diagnosis was CRLM and HCC, with 738 (52.4%) and 227 (16.1%) cases respectively. An evaluation of all liver resection cases and a subgroup analysis of both CRLM and HCC were performed. Preoperative and per operative variables and long-term outcomes were evaluated. Results: 1409 liver resections were performed. In Era 2 the authors observed higher BMI, more: minimally invasive surgeries, Pringle maneuvers, and minor liver resections; and less transfusion, less ICU necessity, and shorter length of hospital stay. Severe complications were observed in 14.7% of patients, and 90-day mortality was 4.2%. Morbidity and mortality between eras were not different. From 738 CRLM resections, in Era 2 there were significantly more patients submitted to neoadjuvant chemotherapy, bilateral metastases, and smaller sizes with significantly less transfusion, the necessity of ICU, and shorter length of hospital stay. More pedicle clamping, minimally invasive surgeries, and minor resections were also observed. From 227 HCC resections, in Era 2 significantly more minimally invasive surgeries, fewer transfusions, less necessity of ICU, and shorter length of hospital stay were observed. OS was not different between eras for CRLM and HCC. Conclusions: Surgical resection in a multidisciplinary environment remains the cornerstone for the curative treatment of primary and metastatic liver tumors.
