Aim: Right hemicolectomy is the standard procedure for appendiceal adenocarcinoma to ensure adequate lymph node sampling. However, due to biological diversity, appendiceal adenocarcinoma has a wide survival range. Therefore, this study investigated risk factors associated with lymph node metastases and conditional overall survival, or the probability of surviving an additional 2 years after treatment, which may provide a more dynamic estimate of survival.
Method: A retrospective cohort study was conducted using the National Cancer Database to identify adults undergoing segmental colectomy for stage I-III appendiceal adenocarcinoma from 2004 to 2018. Cox regression models estimated patient and treatment effects on risk of lymph node metastases and survival outcomes.
Results: Of 3185 patients, 24% had nodal metastases. Probability of lymph node involvement increased with higher tumour grade, non-mucinous and signet cell histology, and advanced T stages. Overall, 5-year survival was 79%. After 2 years, 2716 patients (85%) survived, with 86% of that cohort surviving to 5 years. Age > 70, public or no insurance, higher grade, increasing pathological T stage and nodal metastases were associated with worse 2-year conditional overall survival (all p < 0.05).
Conclusion: In this national cohort, one-fourth of appendiceal adenocarcinoma patients had nodal metastases, which were associated with worse prognosis, validating the importance of segmental colectomy in staging and management. Although patients who survived at least 2 years had improved long-term outcomes, those with higher T stage, tumour grade or nodal involvement remained at elevated risk of mortality and may need prolonged close surveillance.

Background: With the widespread adoption of robotic surgical platforms, a hybrid approach for rectal cancer combining abdominal robotic surgery with transanal or transperineal total mesorectal excision (TME) technique has been introduced. However, in this two-team approach, the docked robotic arms extend over the patient and frequently obstruct the transanal surgeon's line of sight, making it difficult to view the operative monitor and causing excessive cervical rotation and neck strain. To address this ergonomic issue, we implemented a three-dimensional head-mounted display (3D-HMD) using 3D View Vision system (FA. System Engineering Co., Ehime, Japan), which provides stereoscopic, high-definition visualization regardless of head position.
Materials and methods: The system offers 3840 × 1080-pixel resolution, minimal latency, light weight, and seamless switching between robotic and transperineal views, and images from both 2D and 3D endoscopes can be converted to stereoscopic 3D. The transperineal surgeon wore the 3D-HMD during transperineal TME and lateral pelvic lymph node dissection in coordination with the abdominal robotic team. Using this set-up, five abdominoperineal resections and one total pelvic exenteration were performed, all with bilateral lateral pelvic lymph node dissection.
Results: The median operating time was 530 min, with a median 3D-HMD usage of 315 min. The surgeon subjectively reported no cervical discomfort, visual disturbance, or device-related fatigue, and the visual field remained stable throughout the prolonged procedures.
Conclusion: The integration of a 3D-HMD into a hybrid two-team approach was feasible and subjectively well tolerated, providing high-resolution stereoscopic visualization without reported cervical discomfort.

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), necessitates frequent disease monitoring to guide management. While colonoscopy remains the gold standard for assessing disease activity, its invasive nature limits its feasibility. Bowel ultrasonography (BUS) has emerged as a noninvasive alternative.
Objective
This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of BUS in detecting IBD activity compared to colonoscopy.
Methods
A comprehensive literature search of PubMed, CINAHL and Embase was conducted, including 37 studies evaluating BUS modalities such as colour Doppler, small intestine contrast ultrasonography (SICUS) and contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS). Pooled sensitivity, specificity, diagnostic odds ratios (DOR) and likelihood ratios were calculated. Subgroup analyses were performed based on diagnostic modality and IBD subtype.
Results
The overall pooled sensitivity and specificity of BUS in IBD were 90.0% and 83.5%, respectively. SICUS had the highest sensitivity (95.0%), while BUS with colour Doppler had the highest specificity (85.1%). CEUS demonstrated the highest DOR (75.52). BUS performed best in detecting postoperative CD recurrence (sensitivity 91.9%, DOR 61.9). Meta-regression identified surgical anastomosis type as a significant predictor of diagnostic performance.
Conclusion
BUS is a highly effective noninvasive imaging modality for diagnosing and monitoring IBD. Its accuracy varies by modality, with SICUS optimal for screening and colour Doppler BUS for confirmation. Future studies should standardize BUS protocols and evaluate its role alongside MRI and CT enterography.

Purpose
This study aimed to delineate the existing knowledge regarding the impact of colorectal cancer surgery on the sexuality of LGB patients, highlighting the need for culturally competent care tailored to their unique needs.
Methods
A comprehensive search was conducted from October 2024 onwards across PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, Google Scholar, Web of Science, Scopus, PsychINFO, Cochrane Library, and Joanna Briggs Institute using the MeSH terms ‘sexual and gender minorities’, ‘colorectal surgery’, ‘colorectal neoplasms’ and ‘sexuality’. Inclusion criteria required LGB patients over 18 years, at least 50% of the sample diagnosed with colorectal cancer and treated operatively. All studies were critically appraised.
Results
Six studies from the UK and the US were included. Sample size ranged from 1 to 480. Participants identifying as LGB ranged from 26.4 to 100%. Key findings revealed LGB patients experience similar physical consequences to heterosexual patients (erectile and ejaculatory dysfunction, dyspareunia, vaginal dryness), but implications might differ, e.g., regarding anal intercourse. A lower mental quality of life was reported, including body image issues related to stomas. Relationship challenges and intimacy issues were highlighted. The cultural competence of healthcare providers has a significant influence on patient experiences, highlighting a gap in inclusive care. Critical appraisal revealed both methodological strengths and weaknesses.
Conclusion
This review highlighted the sexual health challenges of LGB patients after colorectal cancer surgery, with issues like sexual function and mental wellbeing often being underreported. Cultural competence training for healthcare providers and integrating patients' partners into cancer care are crucial for a holistic approach.
目的：本研究旨在描述关于结直肠癌手术对LGB患者性取向影响的现有知识，强调需要针对他们的独特需求量身定制具有文化能力的护理。方法：从2024年10月起在PubMed、Embase、CINAHL、b谷歌Scholar、Web of Science、Scopus、PsychINFO、Cochrane Library和Joanna Briggs Institute进行全面检索，使用MeSH术语“性和性别少数群体”、“结直肠外科”、“结直肠肿瘤”和“性”。纳入标准要求18岁以上的LGB患者，至少50%的样本被诊断为结直肠癌并接受手术治疗。所有的研究都经过严格的评价。结果：纳入了来自英国和美国的6项研究。样本量从1到480。认同为LGB的参与者从26.4%到100%不等。主要研究结果显示，LGB患者与异性恋患者经历相似的生理后果（勃起和射精功能障碍、性交困难、阴道干燥），但含义可能有所不同，例如，在肛交方面。据报道，精神生活质量较低，包括与气孔有关的身体形象问题。强调了关系挑战和亲密问题。医疗保健提供者的文化能力对患者体验有重大影响，突出了包容性护理的差距。批判性评价揭示了方法论的优点和缺点。结论：本综述强调了结直肠癌手术后LGB患者的性健康挑战，性功能和心理健康等问题往往被低估。对医疗保健提供者进行文化能力培训，并将患者的合作伙伴纳入癌症护理中，这对整体方法至关重要。
