      Laparoscopic and open liver resection have not been compared in randomized trials. The aim of the current study was to compare the inflammatory response after laparoscopic and open resection of colorectal liver metastases (CLM) in a randomized controlled trial. This was a predefined exploratory substudy within the Oslo CoMetstudy. Forty-five patients with CLM were randomized to laparoscopic (n ...
    • Low Concordance Between T-Cell Densities in Matched Primary Tumors and Liver Metastases in Microsatellite Stable Colorectal Cancer

      Background: The subtype, density and location of tumor infiltrating T-cells are being explored as prognostic and predictive biomarkers in primary colorectal cancer (pCRC) and colorectal liver metastases (CLM). Very limited data exist comparing findings in pCRC and matched CLM.<p> <p>Patients and methods: Fifty-eight patients with available pCRC and matched CLM (57/58 microsatellite stable) were ...
    • Molecular signatures reflecting microenvironmental metabolism and chemotherapy-induced immunogenic cell death in colorectal liver metastases

      Background: Metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) is associated with highly variable clinical outcome and response to therapy. The recently identified consensus molecular subtypes (CMS1-4) have prognostic and therapeutic implications in primary CRC, but whether these subtypes are valid for metastatic disease is unclear. We performed multi-level analyses of resectable CRC liver metastases (CLM) to ...
    • Prognostic Impact of Resection Margin Status in Distal Pancreatectomy for Ductal Adenocarcinoma 

      Sahakyan, Mushegh A.; Verbeke, Caroline S.; Tholfsen, Tore; Ignjatovic, Dejan; Kleive, Dyre; Buanes, Trond; Lassen, Kristoffer; Røsok, Bård I.; Labori, Knut Jørgen; Edwin, Bjørn (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-07-22)
      Background. Resection margin status is considered one of the few surgeon-controlled parameters affecting prognosis in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). While studies mostly focus on resection margins in pancreatoduodenectomy, little is known about their role in distal pancreatectomy (DP). This study aimed to investigate resection margins in DP for PDAC.<p> <p>Methods. Patients who ...
