Abstract

Purpose

Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) for resectable liver metastasis from colorectal cancer (CRLM) is used widely, but its efficacy lacks clear evidence. This study aimed to clarify its worth and develop appropriate treatment strategies for CRLM.

Methods

We analyzed, retrospectively, the clinicopathological factors and outcomes of 137 patients treated for resectable CRLM between 2006 and 2015, with upfront surgery (NAC group; n = 117) or initial NAC treatment (NAC+ group; n = 20).

Results

The time to surgical failure (TSF) and overall survival (OS) after initial treatment were significantly worse in the NAC+ group than in the NAC group (P = 0.002 and P = 0.032, respectively). At hepatectomy, the NAC+ group had a lower median prognostic nutrition index (PNI), higher rates of a positive Glasgow Prognostic Score (P = 0.002) and more perioperative blood transfusions (P = 0.027) than the NAC group. Moreover, the serum albumin (P = 0.006), PNI (P ≤ 0.001) and lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (P ≤ 0.001) were significantly decreased and the GPS positive rate was increased from 15 to 35% in the NAC+ group. The OS rates did not differ significantly according to the NAC response (5-year OS rates—CR/PR 67%, SD 60%, PD 38%).

Conclusions

Patients with resectable CRLM should undergo upfront hepatectomy because NAC did not improve OS after initial treatment in these patients.

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?
