Abstract

Objectives: To assess the impact of the learning curve (LC) on perioperative and long‐term functional outcomes of a consecutive single‐centre series of robot‐assisted radical cystectomy with Padua intracorporeal orthotopic neobladder. Patients and Methods: Patients treated between 2013 and 2022 were included, with ≥1 year of follow‐up. The entire cohort was divided in tertiles. Categorical and continuous variables were compared. Joinpoint regression analysis was used to identify significant changes over the decade in linear slope of the 1‐year day‐ and night‐time continence. Uni‐ and multivariable Cox regression analyses identified predictors of day‐ and night‐time continence recovery. Day‐time continence was defined as 'totally dry' (no pads), night‐time continence as pad wetness ≤50 mL (one safety pad). Results: Overall, 200 patients were included. The mean hospital stay (P = 0.002) and 30‐day complications (P = 0.04) significantly reduced over time; the LC significantly impacted on Trifecta achievement (P < 0.001). The 1‐year day‐ and night‐time continence probabilities displayed a significant improving trend (day‐time continence annual average percentage change [AAPC] 11.45%, P < 0.001; night‐time continence AAPC 10.05%, P = 0.009). The LC was an independent predictor of day‐ (hazard ratio [HR] 1.008; P < 0.001) and night‐time continence (HR 1.004; P = 0.03) over time. Conclusion: Patients at the beginning of the LC had significantly longer hospitalisations, more postoperative complications, and lower Trifecta rates. At the 10‐year analyses, we observed a significant improving trend for both the 1‐year day‐ and night‐time continence probabilities, highlighting the crucial role of the LC. However, we are unable to assess the case volume needed to achieve a plateau in terms of day‐ and night‐time continence rates. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this retrospective study was to assess the surgical and oncological outcome of 3 different surgical approaches (laparotomy, laparoscopy, and robotic surgery) in the treatment of early-stage cervical cancer International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage IB1. METHODS: All patients with a histologically confirmed diagnosis of early-stage cervical cancer, FIGO stage IB1, who underwent abdominal radical hysterectomy (ARH), laparoscopic radical hysterectomy, or robotic radical hysterectomy with or without pelvic and aortic lymphadenectomy were included in the study. A review of the literature was conducted. RESULTS: Three hundred forty-one patients, between January 2001 and December 2016, were included in this study: 101 patients were submitted to ARH, 152 to laparoscopic radical hysterectomy, and 88 to robotic radical hysterectomy. In 97% and 11.5% of cases, bilateral pelvic and aortic lymph node dissections were performed, respectively. The 3 groups were similar in regard to clinical characteristics. Compared with ARH, the minimally invasive surgery group was safer in terms of estimated blood loss, transfusion rates, and hospital stay. Above all, robotic surgery was equivalent to laparoscopy in terms of intraoperative and postoperative complications, hospital stay, conversions, and reintervention. On the other hand, robotic surgery had better outcomes compared with laparoscopy in terms of transfusion rates and was equivalent to abdominal surgery and laparoscopy in regard to oncological outcomes. CONCLUSIONS: Our study confirmed that minimally invasive surgery (laparoscopy or robotics) was as adequate and effective as abdominal surgery in terms of surgical and oncological outcomes in the surgical treatment of EEC FIGO stage IB1

Abstract

Simple Summary: In assessing the risk factors for the recurrence of EC, the length of the vaginal cuff removed during surgery has shown discrepant results. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of the excised vaginal cuff length as a prognostic factor and its correlation with the expression of L1CAM. To our knowledge, this is the first study evaluating this prognostic factor in such a secluded and tidy cohort. According to our results, vaginal cuff length does not seem to be an independent variable in an EC low-risk group in terms of DFS. Moreover, L1CAM seems to be associated with a higher risk of distant recurrence. A prospective randomized trial in an EC low-risk group is needed to confirm its negative prognostic role, and to determine its potential value in clinical practice to detect that subgroup of low-risk patients which is at a higher risk of recurrence, especially at distant. Objective: The aim of our study was to investigate the role of the excised vaginal cuff length as a prognostic factor in terms of DFS and recurrence rate/site, in low-risk endometrial cancer (EC) patients. Moreover, we correlated the recurrence with the expression of L1CAM. Material and Methods: From March 2001 to November 2016, a retrospective data collection was conducted of women undergoing surgical treatment for low-risk EC according to ESMO-ESGO-ESTRO consensus guidelines. Patients were divided into three groups according to their vaginal cuff length: V0 without vaginal cuff, V1 with a vaginal cuff shorter than 1.5 cm and V2 with a vaginal cuff longer than or equal to 1.5 cm. Results: 344 patients were included in the study: 100 in the V0 group, 179 in the V1 group and 65 in the V2 group. The total recurrence rate was 6.1%: the number of patients with recurrence was 8 (8%), 10 (5.6%) and 3 (4.6%), in the V0, V1 and V2 group, respectively. No statistically significant difference was found in the recurrence rate among the three groups. Although the DFS was higher in the V2 group, the result was not significant. L1CAM was positive in 71.4% of recurrences and in 82% of the distant recurrences. Conclusions: The rate of recurrence in patients with EC at low risk of recurrence does not decrease as the length of the vaginal cuff removed increases. Furthermore, the size of the removed vaginal cuff does not affect either the site of recurrence or the likelihood of survival. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

ObjectiveThe objective of this study was to evaluate the cosmetic outcome of robotic single-site hysterectomy (RSSH) in early-stage endometrial cancer.MethodsWe prospectively collected patient demographics, operative times, complications, pathologic results, and length of stay on all patients who underwent RSSH for early-stage endometrial cancer. The Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale (POSAS) was used for the evaluation of the cosmetic outcome.ResultsForty-five patients were included in our study from January 2012 to October 2015. The median age of patients was 63 years (range, 35–84 years), and the median body mass index was 26.5 kg/m2 (range, 18–39 kg/m2). No laparoscopic/laparotomic conversion was registered. The median docking time, console time, and total operative time were 7 minutes (range, 4–14 minutes), 46 minutes (range, 20–100 minutes), and 90 minutes (range, 45–150 minutes), respectively. The median blood loss was 50 mL (range, 10–150 mL). Nine patients underwent pelvic lymphadenectomy, and the median number of pelvic lymph nodes was 13 (range, 10–32). The median time to discharge was 3 days (range, 2–6 days). No intraoperative complications occurred, whereas we did observe 1 early postoperative complication. The oncological outcome was directly comparable to the literature. Patients reported low pain scores and high satisfaction in terms of postoperative scarring. The POSAS scores confirmed excellent cosmetic outcome of RSSH.ConclusionRobotic single-site hysterectomy provided an efficient option for gynecologic oncologic surgery. The POSAS revealed high objective and patient-evaluated outcome, and patients were highly satisfied with the overall outcome of the appearance of their scars.
