The radiomorphological appearance of the invasive margin in pancreatic cancer is associated with tumor budding
PurposePancreatic cancer (PDAC) is characterized by infiltrative, spiculated tumor growth into the surrounding non-neoplastic tissue. Clinically, its...

Distal Surgical Margin in Rectal Cancer
The survival of patients treated for colorectal cancer is increasing. It is therefore important to consider implications of smaller distal resection...

Higher Postoperative Mortality and Inferior Survival After Right-Sided Liver Resection for Perihilar Cholangiocarcinoma: Left-Sided Resection is Preferred When Possible
BackgroundA right- or left-sided liver resection can be considered in about half of patients with perihilar cholangiocarcinoma (pCCA), depending on...

Does joint-sparing tumor resection jeopardize oncologic and functional outcomes in non-metastatic high-grade osteosarcoma around the knee?
BackgroundWe previously reported joint-sparing tumor resection for osteosarcoma with epiphyseal involvement in which transepiphyseal osteotomy went...

Impact of positive microscopic resection margins (R1) after gastrectomy in diffuse-type gastric cancer
IntroductionDiffuse-type gastric cancer (DTGC) is associated with poor outcome. Surgical resection margin status (R) is an important prognostic...

Frequency and accuracy of intraoperative bone margin sampling for T4a cancers of the head and neck at the QEII Health Sciences Centre: a retrospective chart review
BackgroundStage T4a cancers are associated with a 5-year survival of 21.6–59.0%. Adequate resection of these tumors is a critical factor in...

The Histopathological Growth Pattern of Colorectal Liver Metastases Impacts Local Recurrence Risk and the Adequate Width of the Surgical Margin
BackgroundThe histopathological growth pattern (HGP) of colorectal liver metastases (CLM) has been associated with prognosis. This study was designed...

Survival after combined resection and ablation is not inferior to that after resection alone, in patients with four or more colorectal liver metastases
PurposeColorectal liver metastases (CRLM) are the predominant factor limiting survival in patients with colorectal cancer. Multimodal treatment...
