Wonderful opportunity to talk about the pitfalls of organ-preservation and our ongoing RCT on de-escalating consolidation chemo for the purpose of organ-preservation @manjuggm@hospitalalemao 🙏
Thank you Dr @R_Perez_MD@hospitalalemao for the very informative & engaging talk on local regrowth rates following "Watch and wait with active surveillance" in locally advanced rectal cancer.
Thrilled to hear about the chemo de-escalation trial for T2N0 rectal cancer

Missed it at ASCRS? Catch the encore on 6/28 5pm ET!
Hear from @TAMISYoda & @RoelHompes about how transanal surgery has evolved from TAMIS to taTME & beyond. Experts will also discuss how they use HALS in complex cases to expand MIS outcomes.

Outstanding booth talk on evolution of transanal surgery from @TAMISYoda and @RoelHompes. Don’t forget to stop by our booth tomorrow to meet the experts and get your questions answered! #ASCRS23@ASCRS_1
So we’ll deserved honorary membership for @patsyllamd@EAES_eu during the #EAES2023#EAES congress in Rome. Great surgeon, great person and great role model!
Top this one:
Our @Delta pilot @JohnnyORD flying surgeons from Boston to Seattle for @ASCRS_1 meeting announced his 9-year #colorectalcancer cure. Encouraged passengers to get a #colonoscopy and prevent cancer. I thanked him for his efforts while he thanked us for ours! #CRS23

Five years later, EssentiAL, the 1st of 3 major randomised trials expected this year, has shown significant benefit for icg in rectal resection in reducing anastomotic leaks by c 40% journals.lww.com/annalsofsur… 11.8% down to 7.6% for all leaks & 8.2% to 4.7% for symptomatic leaks!
TaTME learning curve is (for the sake of this argument) 70 cases. Is that mostly covered in residency and fellowship? Where?
In the US, I would guess that CRS fellows graduate with very few TaTMEs, even when they come from places that have experts in the technique.
One of a kind meeting Alpine Colorectal 2023! Scientifically sound, simply breathless venue and skiing slopes, friends from around the globe…already marking my calendar for 2024…
Important 5-yr data from the #RAPIDO trial:
-Consolidation short-course TNT still associated with lower rates of distant mets/DRTF compared to conventional NACRT
-But SC-TNT also associated with higher rates of breached mesorectum & LRR
