Abstract
BACKGROUND Small bowel tumors (SBT) are infrequent and represent a small proportion of digestive neoplasms. There is scarce information about SBT in Latin America. AIM To describe the epidemiology, clinical characteristics, diagnostic methods, and survival of malignant SBTs. METHODS Retrospective observational study of adult patients with histopathological diagnosis of SBT between 2007 and 2021 in a university hospital in Chile. RESULTS A total of 104 patients [51.9% men; mean age 57 years] with SBT. Histological type: neuroendocrine tumor (NET) (43.7%, n=38), gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) (21.8%, n=19), lymphoma (17.2%, n=15) and adenocarcinoma (AC) (11.5%, n=10). GIST was more frequent in duodenum (50%; n=12) and NET in the ileum (65.8%; n=25). Metastasis was observed in 17 cases, most commonly from colon and melanoma. Nausea and vomiting were significantly more often observed in AC (p=0.035), as well as gastrointestinal bleeding in GIST (p=0.007). The most common diagnostic tools were CT and CT enteroclysis with an elevated diagnostic yield (86% and 94% respectively). The 5-year survival of GIST, NET, lymphoma and AC were 94.7% (95%CI: 68.1-99.2), 82.2% (95%CI: 57.6-93.3), 40.0% (95%CI: 16.5-82.8) and 25.9% (95%CI: 4.5-55.7%), respectively. NET (HR 6.1; 95%CI: 2.1-17.2) and GIST (HR 24.4; 95%CI: 3.0-19.8) were independently associated with higher survival compared to AC, adjusted for age and sex. CONCLUSIONS Malignant SBT are rare conditions and NETs are the most common histological subtype. Clinical presentation at diagnosis, location or complications may suggest a more probable diagnosis. GIST and NET are associated with better survival compared to other malignant subtypes.

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 Robotic transanal minimally invasive surgery (R-TAMIS) is gaining traction around the globe as an alternative to laparoscopic conventional TAMIS for local excision of benign and early malignant rectal lesions. The aim was to analyse patient and oncological outcomes of R-TAMIS for consecutive cases in a single centre. METHODS A prospective analysis of consecutive R-TAMIS procedures over a 12-month period was performed. Data were collated from hospital databases and theatre registers. RESULTS Eleven patients (six men, five women), mean age 69.81 years (51-92 years), underwent R-TAMIS over 12 months utilizing a da Vinci Xi platform. The mean lesion size was 36 mm (20-60 mm) with a mean distance from the anal verge of 7.5 cm (3-14 cm). Five lesions were posterior in anatomical location, four anterior, one right lateral and one left lateral. All procedures were performed in the lithotomy position using a GelPOINT Path Platform. Mean operative time was 64 min (40-100 min). Complete resection was achieved in 10/11 patients with two patients being upgraded to a diagnosis of adenocarcinoma. Nine patients were diagnosed with dysplastic lesions. Four patients had a false positive diagnosis of an invasive tumour on MRI. Six patients required suturing for full-thickness resections. One patient had a postoperative bleed requiring repeat endoscopy and clipping. One patient (full-thickness resection of T3 tumour) proceeded to a formal resection without difficulty with no residual disease (T0N0, 0/22). One patient with a fully resected T2 tumour is undergoing a surveillance protocol. The mean length of stay was 1 day with two patients having a length of stay of 2 days and one patient of 4 days. CONCLUSION R-TAMIS could potentially represent a safe novel approach for local resection of rectal lesions.

Abstract
PURPOSE Ileal pouch-anal anastomosis (IPAA) has become the surgical procedure of choice for patients with ulcerative colitis (UC). IPAA was incorporated into our institution in 1984, and thereafter, more than 200 procedures have been performed. The functional results and morbidity of this surgery have been reported previously. However, long-term functional outcomes and quality of life have not been evaluated. METHODS As a cohort study, we identified all consecutive patients who underwent IPAA for UC between 1984 and 2017 and selected those with more than 10-year follow-up. Demographic data, morbidity, and pouch survival information were obtained. Long-term functional results and quality of life were evaluated through an e-mail survey using the Öresland score and the Cleveland Global Quality of Life scales, respectively. RESULTS Of 201 patients, 116 met the inclusion criteria. Median follow-up was 20 (10-34) years. Early post-operative complications (30 days) were observed in 19 (16.4%) patients and 66 (56.9%) presented adverse events. The IPAA preservation rate at 10 and 20 years was 96.5% and 93.1%, respectively. Long-term functional scores presented a median of 6 (1-15) points. IPAA function was satisfactory in 11 (20.0%) patients, acceptable in 18 (32.7%), and deficient in 26 (47.3%). The median score for global quality of life was 0.8 (0.23-1.0) points. CONCLUSION IPAA as treatment for UC meets the expectations of cure of the disease, maintaining adequate long-term intestinal functionality associated with a good quality of life in most patients.
