RESUMEN
AIM: The aim of this work was to investigate the association between early postoperative anastomotic leakage or pelvic abscess (AL/PA) and symptomatic anastomotic stenosis (SAS) in patients after surgery for left colonic diverticulitis. METHOD: This is a retrospective study based on a national cohort of diverticulitis surgery patients carried out by the Association Française de Chirurgie. The assessment was performed using path analyses. The database included 7053 patients operated on for colonic diverticulitis, with surgery performed electively or in an emergency, by open access or laparoscopically. Patients were excluded from the study analysis where there was (i) right-sided diverticulitis (the initial database included all consecutive patients operated on for colonic diverticulitis), (ii) no anastomosis was performed during the first procedure or (iii) missing information about stenosis, postoperative abscess or anastomotic leakage. RESULTS: Of the 4441 patients who were included in the final analysis, AL/PA occurred in 327 (4.6%) and SAS occurred in 82 (1.8%). AL/PA was a significant independent factor associated with a risk for occurrence of SAS (OR = 3.41, 95% CI = 1.75-6.66), as was the case for diverting stoma for ≥100 days (OR = 2.77, 95% CI = 1.32-5.82), while central vessel ligation proximal to the inferior mesenteric artery was associated with a reduced risk (OR = 0.41; 95% CI = 0.19-0.88). Diverting stoma created for <100 days or ≥100 days was also a factor associated with a risk for AL/PA (OR = 3.08, 95% CI = 2-4.75 and OR = 12.95, 95% CI = 9.11-18.50). Interestingly, no significant association between radiological drainage or surgical management of AL/PA and SAS could be highlighted. CONCLUSION: AL/PA was an independent factor associated with the risk for SAS. The treatment of AL/PA was not associated with the occurrence of anastomotic stenosis. Diverting stoma was associated with an increased risk of both AL/PA and SAS, especially if it was left for ≥100 days. Physicians must be aware of this information in order to decide on the best course of action when creating a stoma during elective or emergency surgery.

BACKGROUND: Several tools are used to assess postoperative weight loss after bariatric surgery, including the percentage of excess body weight loss (%EWL), percentage of total weight loss (%TWL), and percentage of excess body mass index (BMI) loss (%EBMIL). A repeated series of measurements should be considered to assess weight loss as accurately as possible. This study aimed to test weight loss metrics. METHODS: Data were obtained from a prospective database of patients with obesity who underwent laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) or laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) between 2016 and 2017 in a French tertiary referral bariatric center. A multilevel mixed-effects linear regression model with repeated measures was used to analyze repeated weight measurements over time. RESULTS: A total of 435 patients underwent LRYGB (n = 266) or LSG (n = 169). At 2 years, the average %EWL, %EBMIL, and %TWL were 56.8%, 61.3%, and 26.6%, respectively. Patients who underwent LSG experienced lower weight loss (ß: - 4233 in %TWL model, ß: - 6437 in %EWL model, and ß: - 6989 in %EBMIL model) than those who underwent LRYGB. In multivariate mixed analysis, preoperative BMI was not significantly associated with %TWL at 2 years (ß, - 0.09 [- 0.22-0.03] p = 0.1). Preoperative BMI was negatively associated with both %EWL (ß, - 1.61 [- 1.84-- 1.38] p < 0.0001) and %EBMIL (ß, - 1.91 [- 2.16-- 1.66] p < 0.0001). CONCLUSION: This is the first study to assess %TWL use for postoperative weight measurement, using a multilevel mixed-effects linear regression model %TWL is the measure of choice to assess weight loss following bariatric surgery.

BACKGROUND: The observed increase in the incidence of complicated diverticulitis may lead to the performance of more emergency surgeries. This study aimed to assess the rate and risk factors of emergency surgery for sigmoid diverticulitis. METHOD: The primary outcomes were the rate of emergency surgery for sigmoid diverticulitis and its associated risk factors. The urgent or elective nature of the surgical intervention was provided by the surgeon and in accordance with the indication for surgical treatment. A mixed logistic regression with a random intercept after multiple imputations by the chained equation was performed to consider the influence of missing data on the results. RESULTS: Between 2010 and 2021, 6,867 patients underwent surgery for sigmoid diverticulitis in the participating centers, of which one-third (n = 2317) were emergency cases. In multivariate regression analysis with multiple imputation by chained equation, increasing age, body mass index <18.5 kg/m2, neurologic and pulmonary comorbidities, use of anticoagulant drugs, immunocompromised status, and first attack of sigmoid diverticulitis were independent risk factors for emergency surgery. The likelihood of emergency surgery was significantly more frequent after national guidelines, which were implemented in 2017, only in patients with a history of sigmoid diverticulitis attacks. CONCLUSION: The present study highlights a high rate (33%) of emergency surgery for sigmoid diverticulitis in France, which was significantly associated with patient features and the first attack of diverticulitis.

The aim of this study was to compare the performance, intake, digestibility, ruminal parameters, carcass traits, and the yield of commercial cuts of Santa Ines (SI) and Rabo Largo (RL) breeds fed diets with high or low roughage-to-concentrate ratio (R:C) under a tropical climate. Twenty lambs from each breed were individually housed in covered pens and fed the experimental diets for 58 days. The diets were formulated to meet the growth requirements of lambs with a roughage-to-concentrate ratio of 70:30 and 30:70. Significant interactions of breed × diet for nutrient intake were observed (P < 0.05), with SI lambs fed low R:C diet showing higher intake of dry matter, organic matter, crude protein, and total carbohydrates compared to RL lambs fed the same diet. SI lambs fed high R:C diet had higher intake of neutral detergent fiber than RL lambs (P < 0.05). SI lambs displayed better average daily gain and feed efficiency, regardless of diet (P < 0.05). Carcass traits and gastrointestinal components were influenced by breed and diet (P < 0.05). SI lambs fed low R:C diet showed higher subcutaneous fat thickness and better carcass finishing compared to RL lambs (P < 0.05). SI breed lambs exhibited better growth performance, carcass traits, and gastrointestinal characteristics, even when fed diets with a high roughage-to-concentrate ratio.

PURPOSE OF THE STUDY: Iatrogenic ureteral injury (IUI) is a rare but formidable complication of any abdominal or pelvic surgery. The aim of this study was to describe the epidemiology of IUI in colorectal surgery in the Basse-Normandie region over the period 2004-2022, as well as to review the literature on the management of this complication. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This multicenter retrospective analysis of clinical data (medical records and operative reports) concerned 22 patients (13 men and 9 women) who suffered an IUI during colorectal surgery between 2004 and 2022. Ureteral resections for oncological purposes and endoluminal instrumental injuries (post-ureteroscopy) were excluded from the study. We also carried out a review of the literature concerning the incidence of IUI in colorectal surgery. RESULTS: The incidence of IUI was 0.27% over the study period (22 ureteral injuries out of 8129 colorectal procedures). Colorectal cancer and sigmoid diverticulitis were the dominant surgical indications (85% of cases). Proctectomy and left colectomy were the most performed resection procedures (75% of cases). Surgery was scheduled in 68% of cases. The approach was open laparotomy in 59% and laparoscopy in 41% of cases. The IUI involved the left ureter in 63% of cases and the pelvic ureter in 77% of cases. Conservative endoscopic treatment by insertion of a double-J catheter stent had a success rate of 87.5%. Surgical repairs consisting of re-implantation techniques and uretero-ureteral anastomosis had a success rate of 75%. The nephrectomy rate was 13.6% (3/22) and the mortality rate 9% (2/22). A literature review identified sixteen studies, where the incidence of IUI varied from 0.1 to 4.5%. FINDINGS: IUI occurring during colorectal surgery is a rare occurrence but remain a formidable complication. No means of prevention has proven its effectiveness to date, but guidance devices using illuminated ureteral catheters or dyes seem to constitute a promising approach. Injuries to the left pelvic ureter are the most common, and the majority can be treated endoscopically if diagnosed early.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the surgical management of sigmoid diverticular disease (SDD) before, during, and after the first containment rules (CR) for the first wave of COVID-19. METHODS: From the French Surgical Association multicenter series, this study included all patients operated on between January 2018 and September 2021. Three groups were compared: A (before CR period: 01/01/18-03/16/20), B (CR period: 03/17/20-05/03/20), and C (post CR period: 05/04/20-09/30/21). RESULTS: A total of 1965 patients (A n = 1517, B n = 52, C n = 396) were included. The A group had significantly more previous SDD compared to the two other groups (p = 0.007), especially complicated (p = 0.0004). The rate of peritonitis was significantly higher in the B (46.1%) and C (38.4%) groups compared to the A group (31.7%) (p = 0.034 and p = 0.014). As regards surgical treatment, Hartmann's procedure was more often performed in the B group (44.2%, vs A 25.5% and C 26.8%, p = 0.01). Mortality at 90 days was significantly higher in the B group (9.6%, vs A 4% and C 6.3%, p = 0.034). This difference was also significant between the A and B groups (p = 0.048), as well as between the A and C groups (p = 0.05). There was no significant difference between the three groups in terms of postoperative morbidity. CONCLUSION: This study shows that the management of SDD was impacted by COVID-19 at CR, but also after and until September 2021, both on the initial clinical presentation and on postoperative mortality.

The morbidity and mortality of pancreatic cancer surgery has seen substantial improvement due to the standardization of surgical techniques, the optimization of perioperative multidisciplinary management and the organization of specialized care systems. The identification and treatment of postoperative functional and nutritional sequelae have thereby become major issues in patients who undergo pancreatic surgery. This review addresses the functional sequelae of pancreatic resection for cancerous and pre-cancerous lesions (excluding chronic pancreatitis). Its aim is to specify the prevalence and severity of sequelae according to the type of pancreatic resection and to document, where appropriate, the therapeutic management. Exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (ExPI) is observed in nearly one out of three patients at one year after surgery, and endocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EnPI) is present in one out of five patients after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) and one out of three patients after distal pancreatectomy (DP). In addition, digestive functional disorders may appear, such as delayed gastric emptying (DGE), which affects 10 to 45% of patients after PD and nearly 8% after DP. Beyond these functional sequelae, pancreatic surgery can also induce nutritional and vitamin deficiencies secondary to a lack of uptake for certain vitamins or to the loss of absorption site in the duodenum. In addition to the treatment of ExPI with oral pancreatic enzymes, nutritional management is based on a high-calorie, high-protein diet with normal lipid intake in frequent small feedings, combined with vitamin supplementation adapted to monitored deficiencies. Better knowledge of the functional consequences of pancreatic cancer surgery can improve the overall management of patients.

INTRODUCTION: To analyze the safety and long-term result of bariatric surgery in patients with psychiatric disorders. MATERIAL AND METHODS: From January 2009 to December 2018, n = 961 patients underwent bariatric surgery in a tertiary center. Among them, two groups of patients were created: a group of patients with psychiatric disorders (PG) and a group without psychiatric disorders (CG), using a propensity score matched (PSM). Primary endpoint was long-term outcomes and secondary endpoints were the postoperative morbidity 90 days after surgery, late morbidity, occurrence of psychiatric adverse events, and resolution of obesity-related comorbidities. RESULTS: Analysis with PSM permitted to compare 136 patients in each group, with a ratio 1:1. TWL% at 2 years in the PG was 32.7% versus 36.6% in the CG (p = 0.002). Overall surgical morbidity was higher in the PG than the CG (28% vs 17%, p = 0.01). Severe surgical complications were not statistically significant (4% vs 3%, p = 0.44). Psychiatric adverse events were significantly more frequent in the PG than in the CG. The resolution of obesity comorbidities was equivalent for both groups at 2 years. CONCLUSION: Substantial weigh loss was reported among patients with psychiatric disorders receiving bariatric surgery at the cost of more non-severe surgical complications. Further, a psychiatric postoperative follow-up visit may be warranted for patients with preoperative psychiatric disorders, given the incidence of psychiatric adverse events.

PURPOSE: Although several types of surgical procedure have been advocated to date, the optimal resection of the left colonic angle in cancer treatment remains controversial. Located at the border of the transverse and descending colons, the anatomy of the left colonic angle is complex and characterized by numerous anatomic variations. Recent advances in preoperative (three-dimensional CT angiography with colonography) and/or intraoperative (indocyanine green staining) imaging have allowed for a better identification of these variations. METHODS: We performed a methodological review of studies assessing the anatomical variations of the left colic artery. RESULTS: While the left colonic angle is classically vascularized by branches of the superior and inferior mesenteric arteries, an accessory middle colonic artery has been identified from 6 % to 36% of cases, respectively, leading to their classification of five types. In the absence of a left colic artery, this artery becomes predominant. In parallel to the variations in the venous drainage of the left colonic angle, which has been classified into four types, new lymphatic drainage routes have also been identified via this accessory artery and the inferior mesenteric vein. CONCLUSIONS: Collectively, these newly obtained findings plead for preoperative identification in cases of cancer of the left colonic angle and a surgical strategy adapted to these anatomical variations.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical, biological and radiological responses to, and tolerability of, conventional transarterial chemoembolization (cTACE) using streptozocin for unresectable neuroendocrine liver metastases. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A total of 52 patients with predominant liver disease were treated with cTACE using an emulsion of streptozocin, Lipiodol and embolization particles. A sequential approach was favored in patients with high liver tumor burden. Clinical, biological and radiological responses were evaluated using carcinoid symptoms, biomarkers and mRecist criteria, respectively. RESULTS: A total of 127 procedures were performed with a sequential approach in 65% of patients. All patients received streptozocin and Lipiodol. Carcinoid syndrome was improved in 69% of patients after treatment (p = 0.01). Post-embolization syndrome was reported in 78% of patients. At the end of all cTACE, objective response and non-progressive disease were 32% and 70%, respectively. Progression-free survival was 18.3 ± 13.3 months (median 14.9) and median overall survival (OS) from start of treatment was 74 months. The OS at 1 year, 2 years, 3 years and 5 years was 91% (IC = 84-99%), 84% (CI = 72-95%), 69% (CI = 53-84%) and 63% (C = 46-81%), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: cTACE using streptozocin is an effective and well-tolerated palliative option for patients with neuroendocrine liver metastases, associated with prolonged survival and delayed time to progression.
RESUMEN
INTRODUCTION: Revisional bariatric surgery (RBS) is a challenging type of procedure for the surgeons due to its specific morbidity and efficiency. The RBS has a higher prevalence nowadays and this study may help to improve scarce data upon this specific topic. METHODS: Data from 252 patients undergoing RBS after laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding (LAGB) or laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) between 2005 and 2019, were analyzed at 2 years of follow up. A subgroup analysis of third procedure was also performed. RESULTS: Overall morbidity occurred in 35 patients (37%) in the LSG group and 40 patients (25%) in the LAGB group (p = 0.045). At 2 years of RBS, mean weight was 92.8 ± 26.7 kg, BMI was 33.1 ± 8.56 kg/m2 for patients who had RBS after LSG. When RBS was performed after LAGB, mean weight at 2 years was 90.1 ± 20.7 kg and BMI was 32.5 ± 6.45 kg/m2. TWL for RBS performed after LSG was 12.7 ± 16.4% versus 25.5 ± 10.3% after LAGB (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: RBS after LSG seems to lead to higher overall morbidity whereas RBS after LAGB lead to more perioperative issues.

Gastrointestinal bleeding of undetermined origin (GBUO) is defined as gastrointestinal bleeding without an identified cause or location despite an endoscopic assessment including an esogastroduodenal endoscopy (EOGD) and a total colonoscopy. A distinction is made between exteriorized GBUO and non-exteriorized occult GBUO. The causes in the majority of cases (vascular, inflammatory and tumoral) are located in the small intestine. The diagnostic strategy aiming to locate the origin of the GBUO is a real challenge. Innovation in endoscopic and imaging techniques has enabled minimally invasive exploration of the small intestine. In Europe, there is a strong consensus to recommend a video-capsule endoscopy (VCE) as the first-intention study. If there is reason to suspect intestinal obstruction, VCE is contraindicated and a CT-enteroscopy is then performed as first intention. Enteroscopy is performed as a second-line treatment, either for therapeutic purposes after a positive VCE or CT-enteroclysis, or for diagnostic purposes after a negative VCE. Finally, intraoperative enteroscopy (IOE) coupled with surgical exploration should be reserved either for therapeutic purposes in the event of impossibility or failure of preoperative enteroscopy, or for diagnostic purposes in the event of recurrent GBUO after failure of all other studies and explorations of the small intestine.

INTRODUCTION: Diverticular disease, including diverticulitis, begins when the patient becomes symptomatic. Sigmoid diverticulitis corresponds to inflammation/infection of a diverticulum of the sigmoid colon. Among diverticulosis patients, 4.3% develop diverticulitis, a frequent pathology that can entail major functional disorders. Following sigmoid diverticulitis, few studies have assessed functional disorders and quality of life, a multidimensional concept comprising physical, psychological and mental dimensions, as well as social relations. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this work is to report current published data on the quality of life of patients having had sigmoid diverticulitis. RESULTS: Following uncomplicated sigmoid diverticulitis, long-term quality of life does not substantially differ between patients having undergone antibiotic therapy and those having only received symptomatic treatment. As for patients having experienced recurrent events, their quality of life seems improved by elective surgery. Following Hinchey I/II sigmoid diverticulitis, elective surgery seems to improve quality of life, notwithstanding a 10% risk of postoperative complications. Following sigmoid diverticulitis, while emergency surgery seems not to have greater impact on quality of life than elective surgery, the surgical technique employed in an emergency setting seems to have an impact, particularly with regard to the physical and mental components of quality of life. CONCLUSION: Assessment of quality of life is of fundamental importance in diverticular disease and should orient operative indications, particularly in an elective context.

AIM: The long-term urological sequelae after iatrogenic ureteral injury (IUI) during colorectal surgery are not clearly known. The aims of this work were to report the incidence of IUI and to analyse the long-term consequences of urological late complications and their impact on oncological results of IUI occurring during colorectal surgery through a French multicentric experience (GRECCAR group). METHOD: All the patients who presented with IUI during colorectal surgery between 2010 and 2019 were retrospectively included. Patients with ureteral involvement needing en bloc resection, delayed ureteral stricture or noncolorectal surgery were not considered. RESULTS: A total of 202 patients (93 men, mean age 63 ± 14 years) were identified in 29 centres, corresponding to 0.32% of colorectal surgeries (n = 63 562). Index colorectal surgery was mainly oncological (n = 130, 64%). IUI was diagnosed postoperatively in 112 patients (55%) after a mean delay of 11 ± 9 days. Intraoperative diagnosis of IUI was significantly associated with shorter length of stay (21 ± 22 days vs. 34 ± 22 days, p < 0.0001), lower rates of postoperative hydronephrosis (2% vs. 10%, p = 0.04), anastomotic complication (7% vs. 22.5%, p = 0.002) and thromboembolic event (0% vs. 6%, p = 0.02) than postoperative diagnosis of IUI. Delayed chemotherapy because of IUI was reported in 27% of patients. At the end of the follow-up [3 ± 2.6 years (1 month-13 years)], 72 patients presented with urological sequalae (36%). Six patients (3%) required a nephrectomy. CONCLUSION: IUI during colorectal surgery has few consequences for the patients if recognized early. Long-term urological sequelae can occur in a third of patients. IUI may affect oncological outcomes in colorectal surgery by delaying adjuvant chemotherapy, especially when the ureteral injury is not diagnosed peroperatively.

BACKGROUND: To identify preoperative risk factors for discharge failure beyond postoperative day two (POD-2) in bariatric surgery ERAS program in a tertiary referral center. METHODS: all consecutive patients who underwent laparoscopic bariatric treated in accordance with ERAS protocol between January 2017 and December 2019 were included. Two groups were identified, failure of early discharge (> POD-2) (ERAS-F) and success of early discharge (≤ POD-2) (ERAS-S). Overall postoperative morbidity, unplanned readmission rates were analyzed at POD-30 and POD-90, respectively. Multivariate logistic regression was performed to determine the independent risk factors for LOS > 2 days (ERAS-F). RESULTS: A total of 697 consecutive patients were included, 148 (21.2%) in ERAS-F group and 549 (78.8%) in ERAS-S group. All postoperative complications at POD 90, whether medical or surgical were significantly more frequent in ERAS-F group than in ERAS-S group. Neither readmission nor unplanned consultations rates at POD 90 were significantly different between both groups. History of psychiatric disorder (p = 0.01), insulin-dependent diabetes (p < 0.0001), use of anticoagulants medicine (p < 0.00001), distance to the referral center > 100 km (p = 0.006), gallbladder lithiasis (p = 0.02), and planned additional procedures (p = 0.01) were independent risk factors for delayed discharge beyond POD-2. CONCLUSIONS: One in five patients with bariatric surgery failed to discharge earlier despite the ERAS program. Knowledge of these preoperative risk factors would allow us to identify patients who need more recovery time and a tailored approach to the ERAS protocol.

INTRODUCTION: Resection is the cornerstone of curative management for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Hospital surgical volume influence post-operative mortality. Few is known about impact on survival. METHODS: Population included 763 patients resected for PDAC within the 4 French digestive tumor registries between 2000 and 2014. Spline method was used to determine annual surgical volume thresholds influencing survival. A multilevel survival regression model was used to study center effect. RESULTS: Population was divided into three groups: low-volume (LVC) (<41 hepatobiliary/pancreatic procedures/year), medium-volume (MVC) (41-233) and high-volume centers (HVC) (>233). Patients in LVC were older (p = 0.02), had a lower rate of disease-free margins (76.7% vs. 77.2% and 69.5%, p = 0.028) and a higher post-operative mortality than in MVC and HVC (12.5% and 7.5% vs. 2.2%; p = 0.004). Median survival was higher in HVC than in other centers (25 vs. 15.2 months, p < 0.0001). Survival variance attributable to center effect accounted for 3.7% of total variance. In multilevel survival analysis, surgical volume explained the inter-hospital survival heterogeneity (non-significant variance after adding the volume to the model p = 0.3). Patients resected in HVC had a better survival than in LVC (HR 0.64 [0.50-0.82], p < 0.0001). There was no difference between MVC and HVC. CONCLUSION: Regarding center effect, individual characteristics had little impact on survival variability across hospitals. Hospital volume was a major contributor to the center effect. Given the difficulty of centralizing pancreatic surgery, it would be wise to determine which factors would indicate management in a HVC.

BACKGROUND: With a mortality rate of up to 30%, post-pancreatectomy hemorrhage (PPH) remains a serious complication after pancreatoduodenectomy (PD) for cancer. Little is known about the long-term survival of patients after PPH. This retrospective study aimed to evaluate the impact of PPH on long-term survival after PD. METHODS: The study included 830 patients (PPH, n = 101; non-PPH, n = 729) from two centers, who underwent PD for oncological indications. PPH was defined as any bleeding event occurring within 90 days after surgery. A flexible parametric survival model was used to determine the evolution of the risk of death over time. RESULTS: At postoperative day 90, PPH significantly increased the mortality rate (PPH vs. non-PPH: 19.8% vs. 3.7%, p < 0.0001) and severe postoperative complication rate (85.1% vs. 14.1%, p < 0.0001), and decreased median survival (18.6 months vs. 30.1 months, p = 0.0001). PPH was associated with an increased mortality risk until the sixth postoperative month. After this 6-month period, PPH had no more influence on mortality. CONCLUSIONS: PPH had a negative impact on the short-term overall survival beyond postoperative day 90 and up to six months after PD. However, compared to non-PPH patients, this adverse event had no impact on mortality after a 6-month period.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: The impact of several non-clinical factors on cancer survival is poorly understood. The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of travel time to the nearest referral center on survival of patients with cancer. PATIENTS AND METHODS: The study used data from the French Network of Cancer Registries that combines all the French population-based cancer registries. For this study, we included the 10 most common solid invasive cancer sites in France between 1 January 2013 and 31 December 2015, representing 160,634 cases. Net survival was measured and estimated using flexible parametric survival models. Flexible excess mortality modelling was performed to investigate the association between travel time to the nearest referral center and patient survival. To allow the most flexible effects, restricted cubic splines were used to investigate the influence of travel times to the nearest cancer center on excess hazard ratio. RESULTS: Among the 1-year and 5-year net survival results, lower survival was observed for patients residing farthest from the referral center for half of the included cancer types. The remoteness gap in survival was estimated to be up to 10% at 5 years for skin melanoma in men and 7% for lung cancer in women. The pattern of the effect of travel time was highly different according to tumor type, being either linear, reverse U-shape, non-significant, or better for more remote patients. For some sites restricted cubic splines of the effect of travel time on excess mortality were observed with a higher excess risk ratio as travel time increased. CONCLUSIONS: For numerous cancer sites, our results reveal geographical inequalities, with remote patients experiencing a worse prognosis, aside from the notable exception of prostate cancer. Future studies should evaluate the remoteness gap in more detail with more explanatory factors.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Bariatric surgery is known to improve stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and overactive bladder disorders (OAB). However, there is little long-term follow-up in the literature. OBJECTIVE: To determine the long-term effect of bariatric procedures on SUI and OAB and their impact on quality of life, we applied the ICIQ and USP questionnaires. SETTING: The research was conducted at a French university hospital with expertise in bariatric surgery. METHODS: We performed an updated follow-up at 6 years of a prospective cohort of 83 women who underwent a bariatric procedure between September 2013 and September 2014. The women completed the USP and ICIQ questionnaires before surgery, 1 year and 6 years after the surgery. RESULTS: Of the 83 patients, 67 responded (80.7%) in full. SUI remained improved at 6 years: the USP score decreased from 3 [1; 7] before surgery to 0 [0; 1] (p = 0.0010) at 1 year after surgery and remained at 0 [0; 0] (p = 0.0253) at 6 years. The decrease in the OAB symptom score remained statistically significant: 3 [1; 7] before the surgery vs. 2 [0; 5] at 6 years (p = 0.0150). However, this improvement was significantly less pronounced than at 1 year: 0 [0; 1] (p = 0.002). CONCLUSIONS: Bariatric surgery seems to be effective at treating SUI and OAB with a long-lasting effects, still noted at 6 years.
