Abstract

OBJECTIVES Quality assessment is an important element in providing surgical cancer care. The main objective of this study was to develop a new composite measure ‘textbook outcome’, to evaluate and improve quality of surgical care for patients undergoing a resection for non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS All patients undergoing an anatomical resection for NSCLC from 2012 to 2016 registered in the nationwide Dutch Lung Cancer Audit were included in an analysis to assess usefulness of a composite measure as a quality indicator. Based on expert opinion, textbook outcome was defined as having a complete resection (negative resection margins and sufficient lymph node dissection), plus no 30-day or in-hospital mortality, no reintervention in 30 days, no readmission to the intensive care unit, no prolonged hospital stay ( RESULTS In total, 5513 patients were included in this study. Textbook outcome was achieved in 26.4% of patients. Insufficient lymph node dissection had the most substantial effect on not realizing textbook outcome. If ‘sufficient lymph node dissection’ was not included as a criterion, textbook outcome would be 60.7%. Case-mix adjusted textbook outcome proportions per hospitals varied between 13.2% and 37.7%. CONCLUSIONS In contrast to focusing on a single aspect, the composite measure textbook outcome provides insight into comprehensive performance in NSCLC surgery. It can be used to evaluate both individual hospitals and national performance and provides the opportunity to give benchmarked feedback to thoracic surgeons.

Abstract

Contains fulltext : 215772.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access) BACKGROUND: The time interval between CRT and surgery in rectal cancer patients is still the subject of debate. The aim of this study was to first evaluate the nationwide use of restaging magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and its impact on timing of surgery, and, second, to evaluate the impact of timing of surgery after chemoradiotherapy (CRT) on short- and long-term outcomes. METHODS: Patients were selected from a collaborative rectal cancer research project including 71 Dutch centres, and were subdivided into two groups according to time interval from the start of preoperative CRT to surgery (< 14 and >/= 14 weeks). RESULTS: From 2095 registered patients, 475 patients received preoperative CRT. MRI restaging was performed in 79.4% of patients, with a median CRT-MRI interval of 10 weeks (interquartile range [IQR] 8-11) and a median MRI-surgery interval of 4 weeks (IQR 2-5). The CRT-surgery interval groups consisted of 224 (< 14 weeks) and 251 patients (>/= 14 weeks), and the long-interval group included a higher proportion of cT4 stage and multivisceral resection patients. Pathological complete response rate (n = 34 [15.2%] vs. n = 47 [18.7%], p = 0.305) and CRM involvement (9.7% vs. 15.9%, p = 0.145) did not significantly differ. Thirty-day surgical complications were similar (20.1% vs. 23.1%, p = 0.943), however no significant differences were found for local and distant recurrence rates, disease-free survival, and overall survival. CONCLUSIONS: These real-life data, reflecting routine daily practice in The Netherlands, showed substantial variability in the use and timing of restaging MRI after preoperative CRT for rectal cancer, as well as time interval to surgery. Surgery before or after 14 weeks from the start of CRT resulted in similar short- and long-term outcomes.

Abstract

Byline: W.H. Steup, P. De Leyn, G. Deneffe, D. Van Raemdonck, W. Coosemans, T. Lerut Abstract: From 1983 to 1989, 95 patients with carcinoma of the esophagogastric junction underwent resection. Overall hospital mortality rate was 6.2% (6/95). Actuarial survival analysis showed 5- and 10-year survivals of 33% and 31%, respectively. Five- and 10-year survivals of patients according to TNM stages were as follows: stage I (n = 13), 90% at both 5 and 10 years; stage II (n = 13), 70% at both intervals; stage III (n = 28), 28% at both intervals; and stage IV (n = 40), 11% and 8%, respectively. For patients with undiseased nodes (n = 26), 5- and 10-year survivals were 72% and 72%, compared with 18% and 16% for patients with diseased nodes (n = 68; p < 0.005). In patients who had involvement of both the abdominal and thoracic lymph nodes (n = 28), 5- and 10-year survivals were 13% and 13%, compared with 26% and 26% if metastases were confined to the abdomen (n = 37; p > 0.05). Grouping patients with diseased intrathoracic nodes together with patients with N2 abdominal nodes showed survivals of 14% at both 5 and 10 years. When tumors were staged as an esophageal carcinoma, classification of individual patients changed, as did the 5- and 10-year survivals. Five- and 10-year survivals were as follows: stage I (n = 8), 100% for both 5 and 10 years; stage II (n = 18), 68% for both 5 and 10 years; stage III (n = 27), 37% for both 5 and 10 years; and stage IV (n = 41), 10% for 5 years and 6% for 10 years. These data indicate that tumors of the esophagogastric junction tend to spread to both abdominal and thoracic nodes. However, reasonably good 5- and 10-year survivals can be obtained even in patients with nodal metastases in both areas. We suggest that N2 labeling be included for thoracic node metastases instead of the actual M+Ly label, because the N2 label better reflects the potential for curative surgery. Finally, staging tumors as gastric or esophageal carcinoma makes no significant difference in survival analysis, which raises the question whether these tumors behave more like esophageal carcinoma than gastric carcinoma.

Abstract

Aim A Snapshot study design eliminates changes in treatment and outcome over time. This population based Snapshot study aimed to determine current practice and outcome of rectal cancer treatment with published landmark randomized controlled trials as a benchmark.Method In this collaborative research project, the dataset of the Dutch Surgical Colorectal Audit was extended with additional treatment and long-term outcome data. All registered patients who underwent resection for rectal cancer in 2011 were eligible. Baseline characteristics and outcome were evaluated against the results of the Dutch TME trial and the COLOR II trial from which the original datasets were obtained.Results A total of 71 hospitals participated, and data were completed for 2102 out of the potential 2633 patients (79.8%). Median follow-up was 41 (interquartile range 25-47) months. Overall circumferential resection margin (CRM) involvement was 9.3% in the Snapshot cohort and 18.5% in the Dutch TME trial. CRM positivity after laparoscopic resection was 7.8% in the Snapshot and 9.5% in the COLOR II trial. Three-year overall local recurrence rate in the Snapshot was 5.9%, with a disease-free survival of 67.1% and overall survival of 79.5%. Benchmarking with the randomized controlled trials revealed an overall favourable long-term outcome of the Snapshot cohort.Conclusion This study showed that current rectal cancer care in a large unselected Dutch population is of high quality, with less positive CRM since the TME trial and oncologically safe implementation of minimally invasive surgery after the COLOR II trial.

Abstract

Background Recently, excellent results are reported on laparoscopic lavage in patients with purulent perforated diverticulitis as an alternative for sigmoidectomy and ostomy. The objective of this study is to determine whether LaparOscopic LAvage and drainage is a safe and effective treatment for patients with purulent peritonitis (LOLA-arm) and to determine the optimal resectional strategy in patients with a purulent or faecal peritonitis (DIVA-arm: perforated DIVerticulitis: sigmoidresection with or without Anastomosis). Methods/Design In this multicentre randomised trial all patients with perforated diverticulitis are included. Upon laparoscopy, patients with purulent peritonitis are treated with laparoscopic lavage and drainage, Hartmann's procedure or sigmoidectomy with primary anastomosis in a ratio of 2:1:1 (LOLA-arm). Patients with faecal peritonitis will be randomised 1:1 between Hartmann's procedure and resection with primary anastomosis (DIVA-arm). The primary combined endpoint of the LOLA-arm is major morbidity and mortality. A sample size of 132:66:66 patients will be able to detect a difference in the primary endpoint from 25% in resectional groups compared to 10% in the laparoscopic lavage group (two sided alpha = 5%, power = 90%). Endpoint of the DIVA-arm is stoma free survival one year after initial surgery. In this arm 212 patients are needed to significantly demonstrate a difference of 30% (log rank test two sided alpha = 5% and power = 90%) in favour of the patients with resection with primary anastomosis. Secondary endpoints for both arms are the number of days alive and outside the hospital, health related quality of life, health care utilisation and associated costs. Discussion The Ladies trial is a nationwide multicentre randomised trial on perforated diverticulitis that will provide evidence on the merits of laparoscopic lavage and drainage for purulent generalised peritonitis and on the optimal resectional strategy for both purulent and faecal generalised peritonitis.

Abstract

Background: The volume-outcome relationship for complex surgical procedures has been extensively studied. Most studies are based on administrative data and use in-hospital mortality as the sole outcome measure. It is still unknown if concentration of these procedures leads to improvement of clinical outcome. The aim of our study was to audit the process and effect of centralizing oesophageal resections for cancer by using detailed clinical data. Methods: From January 1990 until December 2004, 555 esophagectomies for cancer were performed in 11 hospitals in the region of the Comprehensive Cancer Center West (CCCW); 342 patients were operated on before and 213 patients after the introduction of a centralization project. In this project patients were referred to the hospitals which showed superior outcomes in a regional audit. In this audit patient, tumor, and operative details as well as clinical outcome were compared between hospitals. The outcome of both cohorts, patients operated on before and after the start of the project, were evaluated. Results: Despite the more severe comorbidity of the patient group, outcome improved after centralizing esophageal resections. Along with a reduction in postoperative morbidity and length of stay, mortality fell from 12% to 4% and survival improved significantly (P = 0.001). The hospitals with the highest procedural volume showed the biggest improvement in outcome. Conclusion: Volume is an important determinant of quality of care in esophageal cancer surgery. Referral of patients with esophageal cancer to surgical units with adequate experience and superior outcomes (outcome-based referral) improves quality of care.

Abstract

Background: Most studies addressing the volume-outcome relationship in complex surgical procedures use hospital mortality as the sole outcome measure and are rarely based on detailed clinical data. The lack of reliable information about comorbidities and tumor stages makes the conclusions of these studies debatable. The purpose of this study was to compare outcomes for esophageal resections for cancer in low- versus high-volume hospitals, using an extensive set of variables concerning case-mix and outcome measures, including long-term survival. Methods: Clinical data, from 903 esophageal resections performed between January 1990 and December 1999, were retrieved from the original patients' files. Three hundred and forty-two patients were operated on in 11 low-volume hospitals (<7 resections/year) and 561 in a single high-volume center. Results: Mortality and morbidity rates were significantly lower in the high-volume center, which had an in-hospital mortality of 5 vs 13% (P < .001). On multivariate analysis, hospital volume, but also the presence of comorbidity proved to be strong prognostic factors predicting in-hospital mortality (ORs 3.05 and 2.34). For stage I and II disease, there was a significantly better 5-year survival in the high-volume center. (P = .04). Conclusions: Hospital volume and comorbidity patterns are important determinants of outcome in esophageal cancer surgery. Strong clinical endpoints such as in-hospital mortality and survival can be used as performance indicators, only if they are joined by reliable case-mix information.

Abstract

Item does not contain fulltext, PURPOSE: Preoperative short-term radiotherapy improves local control in patients treated with total mesorectal excision (TME). This study was performed to assess the presence and magnitude of long-term side effects of preoperative 5 x 5 Gy radiotherapy and TME. Also, hospital treatment was recorded for diseases possibly related to late side effects of rectal cancer treatment. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Long-term morbidity was assessed in patients from the prospective randomized TME trial, which investigated the efficacy of 5 x 5 Gy before TME surgery for mobile rectal cancer. Dutch patients without recurrent disease were sent a questionnaire. RESULTS: Results were obtained from 597 patients, with a median follow-up of 5.1 years. Stoma function, urinary function, and hospital treatment rates did not differ significantly between the treatment arms. However, irradiated patients, compared with nonirradiated patients, reported increased rates of fecal incontinence (62% v 38%, respectively; P < .001), pad wearing as a result of incontinence (56% v 33%, respectively; P < .001), anal blood loss (11% v 3%, respectively; P = .004), and mucus loss (27% v 15%, respectively; P = .005). Satisfaction with bowel function was significantly lower and the impact of bowel dysfunction on daily activities was greater in irradiated patients compared with patients who underwent TME alone. CONCLUSION: Although preoperative short-term radiotherapy for rectal cancer results in increased local control, there is more long-term bowel dysfunction in irradiated patients than in patients who undergo TME alone. Rectal cancer patients should be informed on late morbidity of both radiotherapy and TME. Future strategies should be aimed at selecting patients for radiotherapy who are at high risk for local failure.

Abstract

Item does not contain fulltext, PURPOSE: Total mesorectal excision (TME) surgery in the treatment of rectal cancer has been shown to result in a reduction in the number of local recurrences in retrospective studies. Reports on improved local control after preoperative, hypofractionated radiotherapy (RT) have led to the introduction of a prospective randomized multicenter trial, in which the effect of TME surgery with or without preoperative RT were evaluated. Any benefit in regard to a reduced local recurrence rate and possible improved survival must be weighed against potential adverse effects in both the short-term and the long-term. The present study was undertaken to assess the acute side effects of short-term, preoperative RT in rectal cancer patients and to study the influence of five doses of 5 Gy on surgical parameters, postoperative morbidity and mortality in patients randomized in the Dutch TME trial. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We analyzed 1,530 Dutch patients entered onto a prospective randomized trial, comparing preoperative RT with five doses of 5 Gy followed by TME surgery with TME surgery alone, of which 1,414 patients were assessable. Toxicity from RT, surgery characteristics, and postoperative complications and mortality were compared. RESULTS: Toxicity during RT hardly occurred. Irradiated patients had 100 mL more blood loss during the operation (P <.001) and showed more perineal complications (P =.008) in cases of abdominoperineal resection. The total number of complications was slightly increased in the irradiated group (P =.008). No difference was observed in postoperative mortality (4.0% v 3.3%) or in the number of reinterventions. CONCLUSION: Preoperative hypofractionated RT is a safe procedure in patients treated with TME surgery, despite a slight increase in complications when compared with TME surgery only.

Abstract

Contains fulltext : 123650.pdf (publisher's version ) (Open Access), BACKGROUND: Short-term preoperative radiotherapy and total mesorectal excision have each been shown to improve local control of disease in patients with resectable rectal cancer. We conducted a multicenter, randomized trial to determine whether the addition of preoperative radiotherapy increases the benefit of total mesorectal excision. METHODS: We randomly assigned 1861 patients with resectable rectal cancer either to preoperative radiotherapy (5 Gy on each of five days) followed by total mesorectal excision (924 patients) or to total mesorectal excision alone (937 patients). The trial was conducted with the use of standardization and quality-control measures to ensure the consistency of the radiotherapy, surgery, and pathological techniques. RESULTS: Of the 1861 patients randomly assigned to one of the two treatment groups, 1805 were eligible to participate. The overall rate of survival at two years among the eligible patients was 82.0 percent in the group assigned to both radiotherapy and surgery and 81.8 percent in the group assigned to surgery alone (P=0.84). Among the 1748 patients who underwent a macroscopically complete local resection, the rate of local recurrence at two years was 5.3 percent. The rate of local recurrence at two years was 2.4 percent in the radiotherapy-plus-surgery group and 8.2 percent in the surgery-only group (P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Short-term preoperative radiotherapy reduces the risk of local recurrence in patients with rectal cancer who undergo a standardized total mesorectal excision.

Abstract

From 1983 to 1989, 95 patients with carcinoma of the esophagogastric junction underwent resection. Overall hospital mortality rate was 6.2% (6/95). Actuarial survival analysis showed 5- and 10-year survivals of 33% and 31%, respectively. Five- and 10-year survivals of patients according to TNM stages were as follows: stage I (n = 13), 90% at both 5 and 10 years; stage II (n = 13), 70% at both intervals; stage III (n = 28), 28% at both intervals; and stage IV (n = 40), 11% and 8%, respectively. For patients with undiseased nodes (n = 26), 5- and 10-year survivals were 72% and 72%, compared with 18% and 16% for patients with diseased nodes (n = 68; p < 0.005). In patients who had involvement of both the abdominal and thoracic lymph nodes (n = 28), 5- and 10-year survivals were 13% and 13%, compared with 26% and 26% if metastases were confined to the abdomen (n = 37; p > 0.05). Grouping patients with diseased intrathoracic nodes together with patients with N2 abdominal nodes showed survivals of 14% at both 5 and 10 years. When tumors were staged as an esophageal carcinoma, classification of individual patients changed, as did the 5- and 10-year survivals. Five- and 10-year survivals were as follows: stage I (n = 8), 100% for both 5 and 10 years; stage II (n = 18), 68% for both 5 and 10 years; stage III (n = 27), 37% for both 5 and 10 years; and stage IV (n = 41), 10% for 5 years and 6% for 10 years. These data indicate that tumors of the esophagogastric junction tend to spread to both abdominal and thoracic nodes. However, reasonably good 5- and 10-year survivals can be obtained even in patients with nodal metastases in both areas. We suggest that N2 labeling be included for thoracic node metastases instead of the actual M+Ly label, because the N2 label better reflects the potential for curative surgery. Finally, staging tumors as gastric or esophageal carcinoma makes no significant difference in survival analysis, which raises the question whether these tumors behave more like esophageal carcinoma than gastric carcinoma.
