Abstract

Background

Following surgery, a significant proportion of patients develop postoperative complications that are associated with poorer long-term survival. Stereotypical markers of the systemic inflammatory response (SIR) have been shown to identify patients at increased risk of developing such complications. The aim of the present study was to examine the prognostic value of a postoperative systemic inflammation-based score in patients undergoing potentially curative surgery for colorectal cancer.

Methods

Patients with histologically proven colorectal cancer undergoing resection between 1999 and 2013 (n = 813) were grouped into two cohorts—a retrospective test cohort (n = 402) and a prospective validation cohort (n = 411). Patients were assessed for postoperative complications and had routine blood samples taken daily. The relationship between markers of the postoperative SIR and survival was examined using Cox regression analysis.

Results

In the test cohort, 87 patients developed an infective complication, while in the validation cohort, 106 patients developed an infective complication. In both cohorts, the postoperative SIR (C-reactive protein and albumin thresholds of >150 mg/L and <25 g/L, respectively) were associated with the development of infective complications (all p < 0.01). Using these thresholds, a scoring system [postoperative Glasgow prognostic score (poGPS)] was created, and on days 3 and 4 was associated with an incremental increase in the infective complication rate (all p < 0.001) and complication severity (p < 0.001). In the overall cohort, there were 175 cancer and 139 non-cancer deaths. The poGPS was also significantly associated with overall survival (p < 0.05).

Conclusions

The postoperative SIR, evidenced by the poGPS, was associated with increased complication rates and severity and a reduction in survival.

S3-Leitlinie „Diagnostik und Therapie des Karpaltunnelsyndroms“

CME: 2 Punkte

Prof. Dr. med. Gregor Antoniadis Das Karpaltunnelsyndrom ist die häufigste Kompressionsneuropathie peripherer Nerven. Obwohl die Anamnese mit dem nächtlichen Einschlafen der Hand (Brachialgia parästhetica nocturna) sehr typisch ist, ist eine klinisch-neurologische Untersuchung und Elektroneurografie in manchen Fällen auch eine Neurosonografie erforderlich. Im Anfangsstadium sind konservative Maßnahmen (Handgelenksschiene, Ergotherapie) empfehlenswert. Bei nicht Ansprechen der konservativen Therapie oder Auftreten von neurologischen Ausfällen ist eine Dekompression des N. medianus am Karpaltunnel indiziert.

S2e-Leitlinie „Distale Radiusfraktur“

CME: 2 Punkte

Dr. med. Benjamin Meyknecht, PD Dr. med. Oliver Pieske Das Webinar S2e-Leitlinie „Distale Radiusfraktur“ beschäftigt sich mit Fragen und Antworten zu Diagnostik und Klassifikation sowie Möglichkeiten des Ausschlusses von Zusatzverletzungen. Die Referenten erläutern, welche Frakturen konservativ behandelt werden können und wie. Das Webinar beantwortet die Frage nach aktuellen operativen Therapiekonzepten: Welcher Zugang, welches Osteosynthesematerial? Auf was muss bei der Nachbehandlung der distalen Radiusfraktur geachtet werden?
