#ColorectalEd There are lots of interesting nuggets that come up in MDTs/Tumour Boards, they are an excellent educational resource. I'll start tweeting some from our weekly meetings here...

#ColorectalEd Lynch Syndrome: The risk of metachronous CRC is reduced (perhaps by 31%) for every 10cm extra colon removed at resection. Seems to be particularly important for MLH1 and MSH2 variants. Consider extended resection especially in young people dx.doi.org/10.1136/gutjnl…

#ColorectalEd Near-complete clinical responders to LCCRT, who go on to get a complete response have similar outcomes to those who have CR at first assessment. Enhanced surveillance is an option for near-CRs who want to avoid surgery. academic.oup.com/bjs/article/11…

#ColorectalEd Apixaban is absorbed in the TI/R colon. If you do a R hemi with significant SB resection on an anti-coagulated patient, consider doing DOAC levels post-op or swapping to rivaroxiban (Stomach/Duodenum absorption). link.springer.com/article/10.100…

#ColorectalEd In the low rectum, end-to-end and J-pouch anastomoses have equivalent long term LARS scores. Less mobilisation and early morbidity for end-to end. Pick your favourite but probably do the same thing every time. doi.org/10.1111/codi.1…

#BowelCancer is the 4th most common cancer in the UK and every year nearly 43,000 people are diagnosed. However, it can be treatable and curable if diagnosed early. Surgery often remains the most effective treatment for bowel cancer. pelicancancer.org #LiveWellForLonger

Discharged 5 years & 4 months after diagnosis of stage 3 bowel cancer - it was in my lymph nodes plus the highly undesirable B-RAF mutation. Get tested if you have something weird happening in your bowels, or even if you haven’t. I had none of the usual symptoms

As Bowel Cancer Awareness Month draws to a close, we wanted to share patient Felicity's story. Felicity was the fittest she had been in her life, training to row the Atlantic with her sister and friends until things changed. You can read her story here: occtopus.org.uk/insights/case-…
