Abstract

Background

Anal melanoma is a rare disease with a poor prognosis. Limited data are available regarding oncologic outcomes during the last decade and surgical practice patterns. This study aimed to investigate survival and operative oncologic outcomes for patients with anal melanoma.

Methods

The National Cancer Database (2004–2013) was used to identify patients with nonmetastatic anal melanoma who underwent surgical treatment. The primary outcome was overall survival.

Results

The study enrolled 439 patients in the local excision group and 214 patients in the abdominoperineal resection (APR) group. The patients in the APR group were older (70 vs 65 years; p < 0.001) and had larger tumors (40 vs 25 mm; p < 0.001). After resection, the APR patients were more likely to have positive lymph nodes (65.7% vs 12.5%; p < 0.001) and less likely to have positive margins (10% vs 29.8%; p < 0.001). Overall survival did not differ significantly between the APR and local excision patients (hazard ratio [HR], 0.82; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.67–1.01; p = 0.06). The patients undergoing local excision showed was a significant survival advantage for those with negative margins (HR, 0.70, 95% CI, 0.53–0.93; p = 0.009). Among the patients undergoing APR, a significant survival advantage was observed for those with negative nodes (HR, 0.50; 95% CI, 0.35–0.69; p = 0.002) and negative margins (HR, 0.34; 95% CI, 0.15–0.77; p < 0.001).

Conclusions

The overall survival of anal melanoma patients is similar after local excision and APR. Patients with positive margins, positive lymph nodes, or both have a significantly decreased overall 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?
