Journal ArticleDOI

Carotid artery surgery in the presence of an occlusion of the contralateral carotid artery: perioperative risk analysis and follow-up.

TL;DR: Under the described circumstances and with the appropriate surgical technique, the presence of an occlusion of the contralateral internal carotid artery does not imply an increase in major postoperative complications nor a higher stroke rate during follow-up.
Journal ArticleDOI

Long-term evaluation of adhesion formation and foreign body response to three new meshes

TL;DR: None of the meshes are superior in all aspects required for effective and safe incisional hernia repair, and clear distinctions can be made between meshes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pretherapy imaging of rectal cancers: ERUS or MRI?

TL;DR: ERUS and MRI should be seen more as complementary rather than competitive techniques for lymph node imaging, although this could change with advances in new MR techniques.
Journal ArticleDOI

Advanced imaging to predict response to chemotherapy in colorectal liver metastases - a systematic review.

TL;DR: Radiological data on the prediction of response to chemotherapy for CRLM is relatively sparse and heterogeneous, and there seems to be a seemingly counterintuitive correlation between parameters that predict a good response and also predict poor survival.
Journal ArticleDOI

Associations of adipose and muscle tissue parameters at colorectal cancer diagnosis with long-term health-related quality of life

TL;DR: Although visceral obesity and sarcopenia are relatively common at CRC diagnosis, it is found no significant associations of these parameters with long-term HRQoL in stage I–III CRC survivors.
