Tilney HS, Heriot AG, Purkayastha S, et al., 2008, A national perspective on the decline of abdominoperineal resection for rectal cancer, Pages: 77-84, ISSN: 0003-4932
OBJECTIVE: To assess rates of abdominoperineal excision of the rectum (APER) for rectal cancer between centers and over time, and to evaluate the influence of patient characteristics, including social deprivation, on APER rate. METHODS: Data on patients undergoing APER or anterior resection (AR) in England were extracted from a national administrative database for the years 1996 to 2004. The primary outcome was the proportion of patients presenting with rectal cancer undergoing APER. Hierarchical logistic regression was used to identify independent factors associated with a nonrestorative resection. RESULTS: Data on 52,643 patients were analyzed, 13,109(24.9%) of whom underwent APER. The APER rate significantly reduced over the study period from 29.4% to 21.2% (P < 0.001). Operative mortality following AR decreased significantly during the period of study (5.1% to 4.2%, P = 0.002), while that following APER did not (P = 0.075). Male patients were more likely to undergo APER (P < 0.001), whereas those with an emergency presentation more commonly underwent AR (P < 0.001). Independent predictors of increased APER rate were male gender (odds ratio [OR] = 1.239, P < 0.001) and social deprivation (most vs. least deprived; OR = 1.589, P < 0.001), whereas increasing patient age (OR = 0.977, P = 0.027 per 10-year increase), year of study (2003/4 vs. 1996/7; OR = 0.646, P < 0.001) and initial presentation as an emergency (OR = 0.713, P < 0.001) were associated with lower APER rates. After accounting for case-mix, there was significant between-center variability in APER rates. CONCLUSION: Socially deprived patients were more likely to undergo abdominoperineal resection. Significant improvements in rates of nonrestorative resection were seen over time but although short-term outcomes following AR have improved, those following APER have not. Permanent stoma rates following rectal cancer surgery may be considered a surrogate marker of surgical quality. ©

There has been much interest in the volume—outcome relationship within surgical specialities and the potential impact on service reconfiguration. Recent research has raised questions about the validity of the methodology used in existing volume—outcome studies. This review explores a methodological framework for assessing the volume—outcome relationship and discusses limitations of previous research. In particular reference is made to the existing urological literature in this field. Areas for improvement and the potential for future research are considered. © 2008, British Association of Urological Surgeons. All rights reserved.

This paper introduces a novel technique for controlling an articulated robotic device through the eyes of the surgeon during minimally invasive surgery. The system consists of a binocular eye-tracking unit and a robotic instrument featuring a long, rigid shaft with an articulated distal tip for minimally invasive interventions. They have been integrated into a daVinci surgical robot to provide a seamless and non-invasive localization of eye fixations of the surgeon. By using a gaze contingent framework, the surgeon's fixations in 3D are converted into commands that direct the robotic probe to the desired location. Experimental results illustrate the ability of the system to perform real-time gaze contingent robot control and opens up a new avenue for improving current human-robot interfaces.
