Amazing work! Perfect example of multidisciplinary care. Curing the incurable and making the unresectable resectable - #Colorectal #Transplant #Oncology #Hepatology. Mayo Clinic Comprehensive Cancer Center Kristopher Croome David Larson, MD MBA Eric J. Dozois Jeremy Jones Luca Stocchi MD,MBA

What I heard at Grand Rounds V. Liana Tsikitis -4 subtypes of CRC. Early onset CRC is not a unique subtype -TME Immune profiling different for EOCRC -early exposures + diet + microbiome + immunity/imflammation/obesity=EOCRC -normal mucosa, NOT fecal microbiome predicts adenoma formers



Complex care feels seamless Mayo Clinic in Florida. We recently treated recurrent #rectalcancer with total sacrectomy, pelvic exent, aortic bifurcation resection w/homograft & VRAM. 1 patient, 5 surgical teams! MultiD planning w/ #teamwork helps makes the unresectable resectable!
