Not Mutually Exclusive but Mutually Beneficial
There has been a long-standing debate about whether having accurate self-perceptions or holding positive illusions of self is more adaptive. This debate has recently expanded to consider the role of accuracy and bias of partner perceptions in romantic relationships. In the present study, we hypothesized that because accuracy, positivity bias, and similarity bias are likely to serve distinct fun...
متن کاملLateral Pelvic Lymph Node Dissection in Treatment of Advanced Rectal Cancer
Rectal cancer constitutes about one third of all colorectal cancer cases. Total mesorectal excision (TME), first described by Heald, has become the gold standard in rectal cancer treatment, since it was shown to provide a dramatic reduction in local recurrence rates. However, TME does not involve any approaches for lateral pelvic lymph nodes (LPLN), which may be a source of local recurrences. T...
متن کاملMinimally Invasive Techniques for an Intersphincteric Resection and Lateral Pelvic Lymph Node Dissection in Rectal Cancer
A proper total mesorectal excision (TME) technique is paramount to the successful treatment of locally advanced rectal cancer irrespective of operative method, including open and minimally-invasive approaches. The use of minimally-invasive surgery is of growing interest for the treatment of rectal cancer. The results of a recent, multicenter, randomized COREAN trial and of the COlorectal cancer...
متن کاملRobotic surgery for rectal cancer with lateral lymph node dissection
Surgery for rectal cancer is associated with high rates of local recurrence compared with surgery for colonic cancer1. Total mesorectal excision (TME) is now accepted widely as an important contributor in reducing this specific risk2. As advocated by Heald and colleagues3, the mesorectal lymph nodes are excised wholly without disturbing the mesorectum, but even with this technique the local rec...
متن کاملInitial Clinical Experience with Robotic Lateral Pelvic Lymph Node Dissection for Advanced Rectal Cancer
PURPOSE This study was conducted to evaluate the technical feasibility and safety of robotic extended lateral pelvic lymph node dissection (LPLD) in patients with advanced low rectal cancer. METHODS A review of a prospectively-collected database at Kyungpook National University Medical Center from January 2011 to November revealed a series of 8 consecutive robotic LPLD cases with a preoperati...
