Is Central Lymph Node Dissection Mandatory in 2 cm or Less Sized Papillary Thyroid Cancer

Abstract: Purpose: There have been controversies on the scope of central lymph node dissection (CND) in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). We performed this study to determine the role of CND for patients having PTC measuring 2 cm or less. Methods: 530 cases of PTC less than 2 cm had undergone lobectomy plus isthmectomy (LI) with CND or without CND. Clinicopathologic records and clinical outcome were evaluated, retrospectively. Results: Comparing recurrence rates in LI with CND group (4/174, 2.30%) and LI without CND group (16/356, 4.49%), there was no significant statistical difference in recurrence (P=0.331). We compared 20 patients with recurrences and 510 patients of no recurrence. The size of tumor seemed to influence recurrence (P＜0.001) and the size of tumor developing recurrence was larger than the other (1.11 cm vs. 0.75 cm). When considering division into PTC and papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC), PTMC showed less recurrence significantly (P=0.006). No other variables such as age, sex, tumor location, extrathyroidal extension seemed to be related to the recurrence. Conclusion: We could not find any relevant role of CND to prevent recurrence either locally or regionally in cases of no lymph node metastasis after CND for patients having PTC measuring 2 cm or less. Moreover, prophylactic CND is not mandatory for all cases of PTC less than 2 cm. (J Korean Surg Soc 2010;79:332-339)

Real minimal hypersurfaces in complex two-plane grassmannians

Abstract: We give a pinching condition for compact minimal hypersurfaces in complex two-plane Grassmannians G 2(ℂm+2) in terms of sectional curvature and the squared norm of the shape operator.

Real hypersurfaces in the complex quadric with Reeb parallel structure Jacobi operator

Abstract: In this paper, we first introduce the full express of the Riemannian curvature tensor of a real hypersurface $M$ in complex quadric $Q^{m}$ from the equation of Gauss Next we derive a formula for the structure Jacobi operator $R_{\xi}$ and its derivative under the Levi-Civita connection of $M$ We give a complete classification of Hopf real hypersurfaces with Reeb parallel structure Jacobi operator, $ abla_{\xi}R_{\xi} =0$, in the complex quadric $Q^{m}$, $m \geq 3$

The Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology.

Abstract: Objective To address terminology and other issues related to thyroid fine-needle aspiration (FNA), the National Cancer Institute (NCI) hosted The NCI Thyroid FNA State of the Science Conference. The conclusions regarding terminology and morphologic criteria from the NCI meeting led to the Bethesda Thyroid Atlas Project and form the framework for the Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology. Design Participants of the Atlas Project were selected from among the committee members of the NCI FNA State of the Science Conference and other participants at the live conference. The terminology framework was based on a literature search of English language publications dating back to 1995 using PubMed as the search engine; online forum discussions ( http://thyroidfna.cancer.gov/forums/default.aspx ); and formal interdisciplinary discussions held on October 22 and 23, 2007, in Bethesda, MD. Main outcome For clarity of communication, the Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology recommends that each report begin with one of the six general diagnostic categories. Each of the categories has an implied cancer risk that links it to an appropriate clinical management guideline. Conclusions The project participants hope that the adoption of this framework will facilitate communication among cytopathologists, endocrinologists, surgeons, and radiologists; facilitate cytologic-histologic correlation for thyroid diseases; facilitate research into the understanding of thyroid diseases; and allow easy and reliable sharing of data from different laboratories for national and international collaborative studies.

Open versus laparoscopic surgery for mid-rectal or low-rectal cancer after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (COREAN trial): survival outcomes of an open-label, non-inferiority, randomised controlled trial.

Abstract: Summary Background Compared with open resection, laparoscopic resection of rectal cancers is associated with improved short-term outcomes, but high-level evidence showing similar long-term outcomes is scarce. We aimed to compare survival outcomes of laparoscopic surgery with open surgery for patients with mid-rectal or low-rectal cancer. Methods The Comparison of Open versus laparoscopic surgery for mid or low REctal cancer After Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (COREAN) trial was an open-label, non-inferiority, randomised controlled trial done between April 4, 2006, and Aug 26, 2009, at three centres in Korea. Patients (aged 18–80 years) with cT3N0–2M0 mid-rectal or low-rectal cancer who had received preoperative chemoradiotherapy were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive either open or laparoscopic surgery. Randomisation was stratified by sex and preoperative chemotherapy regimen. Investigators were masked to the randomisation sequence; patients and clinicians were not masked to the treatment assignments. The primary endpoint was 3 year disease-free survival, with a non-inferiority margin of 15%. Analysis was by intention to treat. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT00470951. Findings We randomly assigned 340 patients to receive either open surgery (n=170) or laparoscopic surgery (n=170). 3 year disease-free survival was 72·5% (95% CI 65·0–78·6) for the open surgery group and 79·2% (72·3–84·6) for the laparoscopic surgery group, with a difference that was lower than the prespecified non-inferiority margin (–6·7%, 95% CI −15·8 to 2·4; p Interpretation Our results show that laparoscopic resection for locally advanced rectal cancer after preoperative chemoradiotherapy provides similar outcomes for disease-free survival as open resection, thus justifying its use.

Decreased Morbidity of Laparoscopic Distal Gastrectomy Compared With Open Distal Gastrectomy for Stage I Gastric Cancer: Short-term Outcomes From a Multicenter Randomized Controlled Trial (KLASS-01).

Abstract: Objective:To determine the safety of laparoscopy-assisted distal gastrectomy (LADG) compared with open distal gastrectomy (ODG) in patients with clinical stage I gastric cancer in Korea.Background:There is still a lack of large-scale, multicenter randomized trials regarding the safety of LADG.Method
