Journal ArticleDOI
Virtual outpatient clinic as an alternative to an actual clinic visit after surgical discharge: a randomised controlled trial.
Paul Healy,Liam F. McCrone,Roisin Tully,Emer Flannery,Aoife Flynn,Caitriona Cahir,Mayilone Arumugasamy,Thomas N. Walsh +7 more
TL;DR: The majority of patients discharged from a surgical service could be better followed up by a virtual clinic with a significant proportion of patients reporting a preference for and a greater satisfaction with such a service.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cholecystectomy and oesophageal reflux: a prospective evaluation.
TL;DR: The data suggest that cholecystectomy results in gastro‐oesophageal reflux that appears to be related to compromised sphincter competence.
Journal ArticleDOI
REVIEWS — Tumour micrometastases: the influence of angiogenesis
TL;DR: There is increasing evidence that micrometastatic status provides useful prognostic information and should be part of standard staging techniques, and anti-angiogenic therapy has the potential to favourably influence management of certain cancers by manipulating a number of key events in the metastatic process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prevalence of bone marrow micrometastases in esophagogastric cancer patients with and without neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy.
Paul Ryan,Sean McCarthy,J Kelly,J. Kevin Collins,Colum P. Dunne,Liam Grogan,Oscar S. Breathnach,Fergus Shanahan,P. Declan Carey,Thomas N. Walsh,Gerald C. O'Sullivan +10 more
TL;DR: A significant proportion of patients with esophagogastric cancer have disseminated viable tumor cells at time of surgery, irrespective of pre-operative treatment, and the use of marrow culture in parallel with fresh marrow staining may increase the detection of micrometastases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of multimodality therapy on circulating vascular endothelial growth factor levels in patients with oesophageal cancer.
TL;DR: In this article, the authors found that patients with oesophageal cancer would express raised serum levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) which would return to normal values with neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy.
