Factors affecting quality of life in rectal cancer survivors who have undergone laparoscopic surgery: patient-reported outcomes over 10 years at a single institution
CONCLUSIONS: These results compare favourably with the published data. Future studies may benefit from baseline assessment to better assess treatment impact, prescient in an increasingly elderly and comorbid population. This paper establishes that good PROMs are achievable with laparoscopic surgery for rectal cancer. It identifies limited differences in QOL between treatment modalities. Restoration of intestinal continuity and end colostomy result in similar QOL. This may address common concerns regarding stomata, sexual function and low anterior resection syndrome in this cohort.PMID:36748787 | DOI:10.1308/rcsann.2022.0156

The impact of age on long-term survival following gastrectomy for gastric cancer
CONCLUSIONS: Low postoperative mortality and good long-term survival were demonstrated for both age groups following gastrectomy. Age ≥70 years was, however, associated with poorer outcomes. This should be regarded as important factor when counselling patients regarding treatment options.PMID:35446718 | DOI:10.1308/rcsann.2021.0355

Breast cancer liver metastases: systematic review and time to event meta-analysis with comparison between available treatments
CONCLUSION: Local therapeutic interventions such as liver resection and radiofrequency ablation are effective treatments for BCLM, particularly in patients with metastatic disease localised to the liver. Although the data from this review support surgical resection for BCLM, further prospective studies for managing oligometastatic breast cancer disease are required.PMID:35175853 | DOI:10.1308/rcsann.2021.0308

Routine four-quadrant cavity shaving at the time of wide local excision for breast cancer reduces re-excision rate
CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrates that routine cavity shaving decreases re-excision rate in patients treated with wide local excision and prevents delays to adjuvant treatment due to incomplete excision.PMID:35174724 | DOI:10.1308/rcsann.2021.0285
