Ann Surg Oncol 2024; 31:3280-3299. [PMID: 38459419 DOI: 10.1245/s10434-023-14649-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/16/2023] [Accepted: 11/09/2023] [Indexed: 03/10/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Extended pelvic surgery with neurovascular or bony resections in gynecological oncology has significant impact on quality of life (QoL) and high morbidity. The objective of this systematic review was to provide an overview of QoL, morbidity and mortality following these procedures. METHODS The registered PROSPERO protocol included database-specific search strategies. Studies from 1966 onwards reporting on QoL after extended pelvic surgery with neurovascular or bony resections for gynecological cancer were considered eligible. All others were excluded. Study selection (Rayyan), data extraction, rating of evidence (GRADE) and risk of bias (ROBINS-I) were performed independently by two reviewers. RESULTS Of 349 identified records, 121 patients from 11 studies were included-one prospective study, seven retrospective studies, and three case reports. All studies were of very low quality and with an overall serious risk of bias. Primary tumor location was the cervix (n = 78, 48.9%), vulva (n = 30, 18.4%), uterus (n = 21, 12.9%), endometrium (n = 15, 9.2%), ovary (n = 8, 4.9%), (neo)vagina (n = 3, 1.8%), Gartner duct/paracolpium (n = 1, 0.6%), or synchronous tumors (n = 3, 1.8%), or were not reported (n = 4, 2.5%). Bony resections included the pelvic bone (n = 36), sacrum (n = 2), and transverse process of L5 (n = 1). Margins were negative in 70 patients and positive in 13 patients. Thirty-day mortality was 1.7% (2/121). Three studies used validated QoL questionnaires and seven used non-validated measurements; all reported acceptable QoL postoperatively. CONCLUSIONS In this highly selected patient group, mortality and QoL seem to be acceptable, with a high morbidity rate. This comprehensive study will help to inform eligible patients about the outcomes of extended pelvic surgery with neurovascular or bony resections. Future collaborative studies can enable the collection of QoL data in a validated, uniform manner.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Empty pelvis syndrome (EPS) is a significant source of morbidity following pelvic exenteration (PE), but is undefined. EPS outcome reporting and descriptors of radicality of PE are inconsistent; therefore, the best approaches for prevention are unknown. To facilitate future research into EPS, the aim of this study is to define a measurable core outcome set, core descriptor set and written definition for EPS. Consensus on strategies to mitigate EPS was also explored. METHOD Three-stage consensus methodology was used: longlisting with systematic review, healthcare professional event, patient engagement, and Delphi-piloting; shortlisting with two rounds of modified Delphi; and a confirmatory stage using a modified nominal group technique. This included a selection of measurement instruments, and iterative generation of a written EPS definition. RESULTS One hundred and three and 119 participants took part in the modified Delphi and consensus meetings, respectively. This encompassed international patient and healthcare professional representation with multidisciplinary input. Seventy statements were longlisted, seven core outcomes (bowel obstruction, enteroperineal fistula, chronic perineal sinus, infected pelvic collection, bowel obstruction, morbidity from reconstruction, re-intervention, and quality of life), and four core descriptors (magnitude of surgery, radiotherapy-induced damage, methods of reconstruction, and changes in volume of pelvic dead space) reached consensus-where applicable, measurement of these outcomes and descriptors was defined. A written definition for EPS was agreed. CONCLUSIONS EPS is an area of unmet research and clinical need. This study provides an agreed definition and core data set for EPS to facilitate further research.

Abstract
AIM Locally advanced and recurrent colorectal cancer can require extended surgery, including reconstruction of the vagina. This complex surgery carries high morbidity. The aim of this study was to analyse the impact on female sexual functioning of pelvic exenteration (PE), with or without vaginal flap reconstruction, for locally advanced or recurrent colorectal cancer. METHOD The protocol with search strategies for PubMed (Medline), EMBASE and the Cochrane Library was registered in PROSPERO. Studies published from 2000 onwards meeting the inclusion criteria were considered. Study selection (Rayyan), data extraction, rating of evidence (GRADE) and risk of bias (ROBINS-I) were conducted independently by two reviewers. RESULTS Six of 2479 identified records were included: four retrospective and two cross-sectional studies. Of all 860 patients included, PE was performed in 314 patients. Seven hundred and thirty-two had rectal cancer (85.1%), 80 nonadvanced rectal cancer (10.9%), 393 locally advanced rectal cancer (53.7%) and 217 locally recurrent rectal cancer (29.6%); for 45 patients the type of rectal cancer remained unspecified (6.1%). Three studies reported on both preoperative and postoperative female sexual activity. Of the 153 women who were sexually active preoperatively, 64 (41.8%) reported postoperative sexual activity. The VRAM flap was used the most frequently and resulted in a sexual activity ratio of 18% postoperatively. Four studies, using six different validated questionnaires, reported mostly lowered sexual functioning postoperatively. CONCLUSION Most studies showed that PE can result in severe sexual dysfunction despite reconstruction. Future prospective studies can fill the current knowledge gap by assessing long-term sexual outcomes in women.

Abstract
Background Locally recurrent rectal cancer (LRRC) occurs in 5-10% of patients following previous treatment of rectal cancer. It has a significant impact on patients' overall health-related quality of life (HrQoL). Major advances in surgical treatments have led to improved survival outcomes. However, due to the lack of disease-specific, validated patient-reported outcome measure (PROM), HrQoL, is variably assessed. The aim of this study is to develop a disease-specific, psychometrically robust, and validated PROM for use in LRRC. Methods A multicentre, three phase, mixed-methods, observational study was performed across five centres in the UK and Australia. Adult patients (>18 years old) with an existing or previously treated LRRC within the last 2 years were eligible to participate. Patients completed the proposed LRRC-QoL, EORTC QLQ-CR29, and FACT-C questionnaires. Scale structure was analysed using multi-trait scaling analysis and exploratory factor analysis, reliability was assessed using Cronbach's and the intra-class coefficient, convergent validity was assessed using Pearson's correlation, and known-groups comparison was assessed using the student t-test or ANOVA. Findings Between 01/03/2015 and 31/12/2019, 117 patients with a diagnosis of LRRC were recruited. The final scale structure of the LRRC-QoL consisted of nine multi-item scales (healthcare services, psychological impact, pain, urostomy-related symptoms, lower limb symptoms, stoma, sexual function, sexual interest, and urinary symptoms) and three single items. Cronbach's Alpha and Intraclass correlation values of >0.7 across the majority of scales supported overall reliability. Convergent validity was demonstrated between LRRC-QoL Pain Scale and FACT-C Physical Well Being scale (r = 0.528, p < 0.001), LRRC-QoL Psychological Impact scale with EORTC QLQ CR29 Body Image (r = 0.680, p < 0.001) and the FACT-C Emotional Well Being scale (r = 0.326, p < 0.001), and LRRC-QoL Urinary Symptoms scale with EORTC QLQ-CR29 Urinary Frequency scale (r = 0.310, p < 0.001). Known-groups validity was demonstrated for gender, disease location, treatment intent, and re-recurrent disease. Interpretation The LRRC-QoL has demonstrated robust psychometric properties and can be used in clinical and academic practice. Funding None.

Assessment of Quality of Life in Rectal Cancer with Organ-Preservation Treatment: Are We There yet? Clin Oncol (R Coll Radiol) 2023; 35:e110-e120.

Abstract
Rectal cancer is a common cancer and shows an increased incidence with older age. Although the gold standard treatment is surgical excision, minimally invasive approaches are increasingly used and organ preservation is becoming a reasonable approach. The conservative treatment approach includes local excision, external beam radiotherapy and brachytherapy. However, these all carry a risk of side-effects. It is crucial to provide patients with information to quantify the improvement or detriment in quality of life with their cancer treatment. This can only be done with patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) as tools within current and future trials. Colorectal cancer has numerous publications with specific PROMs. However, PROMs reporting in rectal cancer is more sparse; PROMs are generally extrapolated from colorectal cancer. Rectal PROMs trials hold small population samples and PROMs as an end point is scarce. We present a review of recent literature based on the PROMs reporting of quality of life for rectal cancer patients and introduce the CITRuS trial as an innovative feasibility study related to electronic PROMs data collection.
