Exercise may augment our immune response with impact on tumour regression. Time for surgeons to prescribe exercise as part of our cancer treatment pathway? PERIOP-OG will provide more evidence.

Association between peri-operative morbidity and compliance with ERAS in colorectal surgery - logical that same may be true after oesophagectomy .... but ERAS just one of the factors at play here #prehabilitation #nutrition #minimallyinvasiveoesophagectomy

FFCD9901 showed that despite best staging with EUS, PET and CT 26% of stage I and II patient are upstaged after primary surgery - What we do with cT2NO disease remains problematic - Should we overtreat circa 75% of patients to avoid undertreating 25%? ....ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24982463

A slick demo which has been well worked out by Frans van Workum and Radbound UMC team. Intrathoracic placement of anvil and use of circular stapler not easy - especially for those of us who do this prone or semi prone. Really good demo.

More evidence that both surgical quality and an uncomplicated recovery impacts on our patients' survival. #lymphadenectomy #ERAS #nutrition #prehabilitation #minimallyinvasivesurgery ... they all play their role. #marginalgains insights.ovid.com/pubmed?pmid=31…

Do you use stents to relieve dysphagia during neoadjuvant treatment? Maybe not such a good idea.... Use of esophageal stents to relieve dysphagia during neoadjuvant therapy prior to esophageal resection: a systematic review academic.oup.com/dote/advance-a…
