Article Abstract

We aimed to clarify the impact of TME grading on recurrence and survival. PubMed and Scopus were searched. The main outcome measures were local and distant recurrence and overall survival. Ten studies (2002-2023) were analyzed. Patients with incomplete TME exhibited lower overall survival (HR 0.75, p = 0.044) and higher local (RR 3.09, p = 0.001) and distant (RR 1.44, p = 0.005) recurrence rates compared to complete/near-complete TME. Complete and near-complete TME had similar risk of local recurrence, distant metastasis, and overall survival. This meta-analysis supports the crucial role of TME in rectal cancer outcomes.

Objective: The retrieval of 12 lymph nodes (LNs) remains a crucial criterion for accurate staging and prognosis evaluation in rectal cancer (RC). However, some patients fail to meet this threshold after surgery. This study developed a nomogram model based on clinical variables to predict the probability of retrieving 12 LNs postoperatively.

Purpose: This study aims to assess percentage of automated AIO plans that met clinical treatment standards of radiotherapy plans generated by the fully automated All-in-one (AIO) process.

Methods: The study involved 117 rectal cancer patients who underwent AIO treatment. Fully automated regions of interest (ROI) and treatment plans were developed without manual intervention, comparing them to manually generated plans used in clinical practice.

Background: With the advancement of MR-based imaging, prostate cancer ablative therapies have seen increased interest to reduce complications of prostate cancer treatment. Although less invasive, they do carry procedural risks, including rectal injury. To date, the medicolegal aspects of ablative therapy remain underexplored.
