Functional compromise reflected by sarcopenia, frailty, and nutritional depletion predicts adverse postoperative outcome after colorectal cancer surgery.
Kostan W. Reisinger,Jeroen L.A. van Vugt,Juul J.W. Tegels,Claire Snijders,Karel W.E. Hulsewé,A.G.M. Hoofwijk,Jan H.M.B. Stoot,Maarten F. von Meyenfeldt,Geerard L. Beets,Joep P. M. Derikx,Martijn Poeze +10 more
TL;DR: Functional compromise in colorectal cancer surgery is associated with adverse postoperative outcome and assessment of functional compromise by means of a nutritional questionnaire, a frailty questionnaire, and sarcopenia measurement can accurately predict postoperative sepsis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Halsted revisited: internal mammary sentinel lymph node biopsy in breast cancer.
Fred W. C. van der Ent,Roland A. M. Kengen,Harry A. G. van der Pol,Joris A. C. M. Povel,Harry J. G. Stroeken,A.G.M. Hoofwijk +5 more
TL;DR: Internal mammary sentinel node biopsy improves nodal staging in breast cancer by identifying higher-risk subgroups with internal mammary nodal metastases, which might benefit from altered adjuvant treatment regimens.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sarcopenia is highly prevalent in patients undergoing surgery for gastric cancer but not associated with worse outcomes
Juul J.W. Tegels,Jeroen L.A. van Vugt,Kostan W. Reisinger,Karel W.E. Hulsewé,A.G.M. Hoofwijk,Joep P. M. Derikx,Jan H.M.B. Stoot +6 more
TL;DR: Aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of sarcopenia and body composition in gastric cancer surgical patients and its association with adverse postoperative outcome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sentinel node biopsy in 70 unselected patients with breast cancer: increased feasibility by using 10 mCi radiocolloid in combination with a blue dye tracer.
TL;DR: It is concluded that SN biopsy, using a higher dose of peritumoral radiocolloid tracer, combined with intradermal blue dyetracer, increases feasibility in breast cancer, making this concept applicable for all patients with primary breast cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Value of Geriatric Frailty and Nutritional Status Assessment in Predicting Postoperative Mortality in Gastric Cancer Surgery
TL;DR: This study shows a significant relationship between gastric cancer surgical mortality and geriatric frailty as well as nutritional status using a simple questionnaire which may have implications in preoperative decision making in selecting patients who optimally benefit from surgery.
