Preventing Lymphedema in Axillary Lymph Node Dissection
The researchers are trying to answer if axillary reverse mapping (ARM) with lympho-venous bypass (LVB) in patients undergoing an axillary lymph node dissection reduces the rate and severity of post-operative lymphedema of the arm.

Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection (ESD) Versus Endoscopic Mucosal Resection (EMR) for Large Non Pedunculated Colonic Adenomas: a Randomized Comparative Trial (RESECT COLON)
Initially developed in Japan for the treatment of endemic superficial gastric cancers, endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) allows resection of pre-neoplastic and neoplastic lesions of the digestive tract into a single fragment. It allows a perfect pathological analysis, and decreases the rate of recurrence of the adenoma to less than 2% …

Does Immediate Lymphatic Reconstruction Decrease the Risk of Lymphedema After Axillary Lymph Node Dissection
The researchers are doing this study to see if having immediate lymphatic reconstruction after axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) can decrease the development of lymphedema, a side effect of ALND. Other purposes of the study include: Comparing the approach of immediate lymphatic reconstruction after ALND with the approach of ALND …

The Value of Lymph Node Dissection of Indocyanine Green-guided Near-infrared Fluorescent Imaging in Esophagectomy
Indocyanine green (ICG) has been recently introduced in clinical practice as a fuorescent tracer. Lymphadenectomy is particularly challenging in esophageal cancer surgery, owing to the complex anatomical drainage.Therefore, the purpose of this study was to explore whether the NIR-ICG imaging system could accurately assess the lymph node markers during radical …

Lateral Lymph Node Dissection for Middle-low Rectal Cancer
The investigators will perform CT three-dimension reconstruction for middle-low rectal cancer patients who have enlarged lateral lymph nodes to recognize the variance of pelvic vessels, by which to help reduce operative time and blood loss, localize the lateral lymph nodes, improve the lymph node harvested and positive rate. Besides, The …

Comparison of Low and High Ligation With Apical Lymph Node Dissection in the Laparoscopy Rectal Cancer
The purpose of this study is to explore the different impacts of high and low ligation in laparoscopic rectal interior resection on postoperative anastomotic leakage and proximal bowel necrosis and stenosis, as well as the quality of life and long-term survival. In the anterior resection of rectum, the section level …

Endoscopic Mucosal Resection Versus Endoscopic Submucosal Dissection for Colorectal Laterally Spreading Lesions.
EMR and ESD are both effective and safe and are associated with a very low risk of procedure related mortality when performed for colorectal laterally spreading lesions (LSL). Some kind of LSLs have a low risk of submucosal invasive carcinoma (SMIC) or these foci are found in well demarcated areas …

Dissecting Host-microbiome Modifiers of Type 2 Diabetes Risk (DBBIOTE)
It is now well documented that changes in gut microbiota composition accompany obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D) and contribute to low-grade inflammation, insulin resistance,and glucose intolerance. It is not yet clear if T2D predisposes the intestine to allow more microbial products or possibly live bacteria to subvert the gut …

The Prognostic Role of Lymph Node Dissection In Men With Prostate Cancer Treated With Radical Prostatectomy
An extended pelvic lymph node dissection (ePLND) is the most accurate staging method to assess the presence of lymph node metastases in prostate cancer (PCa) patients. The therapeutic value, however remains unclear. Prospective randomized trials to address this void are lacking. Since in intermediate and a proportion of high risk …

Targeted Axillary Dissection (TAD) in Early-stage Node Positive Breast Cancer
RATIONALE: It is now standard for most breast cancer patients with 1-2 positive sentinel nodes to avoid completion node dissection when eligibility criteria from the American College of Surgeons Oncology Group (ACOSOG) Z0011 trial are met. The National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) recently proposed to extend this indication to patients …
