DOI: 10.1002/cncr.33766
Abstract: A large body of evidence supports regionalization of complex oncologic surgery to high‐volume surgeons at high‐volume hospitals. However, whether there is heterogeneity of outcomes among high‐volume surgeons at high‐volume hospitals remains unknown. read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10877-021-00706-z
Abstract: Cerebral blood flow is tightly regulated by cerebrovascular autoregulation (CVA), and intraoperative impairment of CVA has been linked with perioperative neurocognitive disorders. We aim to assess whether impairment of CVA during major oncologic surgery is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jamcollsurg.2019.12.034
Abstract: BACKGROUND There are multiple definitions for malnutrition, without evidence of superiority of any one definition to assess preoperative risk. Therefore, to aid in identification of patients that might warrant prehabilitation we aimed to determine the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jgo.2019.09.013
Abstract: INTRODUCTION Comprehensive geriatric assessment prior to oncologic surgery can help predict surgical outcomes. We tested whether an abbreviated geriatric assessment tool, the Vulnerable Elderly Surgical Pathways and outcomes Assessment (VESPA), would predict post-operative complications among… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/ijgc-2022-003657
Abstract: In gynecological oncologic surgery, partial ureteral resection may be required to achieve a complete resection of the disease. According to the length of ureteral defect, ureteroneocystostomy with psoas hitch can be indicated for ureteral reimplantation,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/cancers13081824
Abstract: Simple Summary Older patients can have an increased expression of inflammatory cytokines due to ageing of the immune system. It is likely that older cancer patients with a low-grade inflammatory state are more at risk… read more here.
