Abstract
INTRODUCTION Over the last decade, the number of prehabilitation randomised controlled trials (RCTs) has increased significantly. Therefore, this review aimed to describe the outcomes reported in prehabilitation RCTs in patients undergoing cancer surgery. METHODS A search was conducted in Embase, Allied and Complementary Medicine Database, The Cochrane Library, PsycINFO, MEDLINE, and Cumulated Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature from inception to July 2021. We included RCTs evaluating the effectiveness of preoperative exercise, nutrition, and psychological interventions on postoperative complications and length of hospital stay in adult oncology patients who underwent thoracic and gastrointestinal cancer surgery. The verbatim outcomes reported in each article were extracted, and each outcome was assessed to determine whether it was defined and measured using a validated tool. Verbatim outcomes were grouped into standardized outcomes and categorized into domains. The quality of outcome reporting in each identified article was assessed using the Harman tool (score range 0-6, where 0 indicated the poorest quality). RESULTS A total of 74 RCTs were included, from which 601 verbatim outcomes were extracted. Only 110 (18.3%) of the verbatim outcomes were defined and 270 (44.9%) were labeled as either "primary" or "secondary" outcomes. Verbatim outcomes were categorized into 119 standardized outcomes and assigned into one of five domains (patient-reported outcomes, surgical outcomes, physical/functional outcomes, disease activity, and intervention delivery). Surgical outcomes were the most common outcomes reported (n = 71 trials, 95.9%). The overall quality of the reported outcomes was poor across trials (median score: 2.0 [IQR = 0.00-3.75]). CONCLUSIONS Prehabilitation RCTs display considerable heterogeneity in outcome reporting, and low outcome reporting quality. The development of standardized core outcome sets may help improve article quality and enhance the clinical utility of prehabilitation following cancer surgery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study describes surgical and quality of life outcomes in patients with peritoneal malignancy treated by cytoreductive surgery (CRS) alone compared with a subgroup treated with CRS and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). METHODS Peritoneal malignancy patients undergoing surgery between 2017 and 2023 were included. The cohort was divided into patients treated by CRS and HIPEC and those treated by CRS without HIPEC (including CRS only or maximal tumour debulking (MTB)). Main outcomes included surgical outcomes, survival, and quality of life. Groups were compared using non-parametric tests and log-rank test was used to compare survival curves. RESULTS 403 had CRS and HIPEC, 25 CRS only and 15 MTB. CRS and HIPEC patients had a lower peritoneal carcinomatosis index (12.0 vs. 17.0 vs. 35.0; P < 0.001) and longer surgical operative time (9.3 vs. 8.3 vs. 5.2 h; P < 0.001), when compared to CRS only and MTB, respectively. No other significant difference between groups was observed. CONCLUSIONS The optimal management of selected patients with resectable peritoneal malignancy incorporates a combined strategy of CRS and HIPEC. When HIPEC is not utilized, due to significant residual disease or comorbidity precluding safe delivery, CRS alone is associated with good outcomes. Hospital stay and complications are acceptable but not significantly different to the CRS and HIPEC group. CRS alone is a complex intervention requiring comparable resources with good outcomes. In view of our findings 'intention to treat' with CRS and HIPEC should be the basis for resource allocation and funding.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Early-onset colorectal cancer (EOCRC) incidence is increasing in Australia. However, no Australian studies have reported on EOCRC patients' surgical management and survival patterns. METHODS A retrospective study of 111 EOCRC patients treated at the Royal Prince Alfred Hospital (RPAH), Sydney, Australia between January 2013 and December 2021 was performed. RPAH is a quaternary referral centre for pelvic exenteration (PE) and cytoreductive surgery and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS/HIPEC). RESULTS Most patients had left-sided tumours (76.58%) and stage IV disease at the time of presentation (37.85%). 27.93% of patients underwent either CRS/HIPEC and PE and 72.07% of patients underwent other colorectal resections of which the most common was low anterior resection (19.82%). A stoma was fashioned in 50.54% of patients. Complications occurred in 54.95% of patients of which most were Clavien-Dindo grade II (47.54%). Absolute 1-, 3- and 5-year time intervals were 93.69%, 87.39% and 85.48%. Disease-free and overall survival were poorer in stage IV patients who had PE, followed by CRS/HIPEC then other colorectal resections (P < 0.001 and P = 0.003). CONCLUSIONS Stoma formation, PE and CRS/HIPEC and minor postoperative complications were common in our EOCRC cohort. Despite this, the 5-year absolute survival rate was acceptable. Thus, an aggressive surgical approach in EOCRC patients at a quaternary referral centre may be feasible at the cost of greater postoperative morbidity. This information is imperative in the surgical consent and preoperative counselling of EOCRC patients and highlights the need for further research to assess the postoperative functional outcomes and quality of life of EOCRC patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rural Australians typically encounter disparities in healthcare access leading to adverse health outcomes, delayed diagnosis and reduced quality of life (QoL) parameters. These disparities may be exacerbated in advanced malignancies, where treatment is only available at highly specialised centres with appropriate multidisciplinary expertise. Thus, this study aims to determine the association between patient residence on oncological, surgical and QoL outcomes following cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intra-peritoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). METHODS A retrospective analysis was conducted on consecutive patients undergoing CRS and HIPEC at Royal Prince Alfred Hospital from January 2017 to March 2022. On the basis of their postcode of residence, patients were stratified into metropolitan and regional groups. Data encompassing demographics, oncological, surgical and QoL outcomes were compared. Statistical analysis included chi-square test, t-tests and Kaplan-Meier survival curves. RESULTS Among the 317 patients, 228 (72%) were categorised as metropolitan and 89 (28%) as regional. Metropolitan patients presented higher rates of recurrence (61.8% versus 40.0%, p = 0.014) and shorter overall mean survival [3.8 years (95% CI: 3.44-4.09) versus 4.2 years (95% CI: 3.76-4.63), p = 0.019] compared with regional patients. No other statistically significant differences were observed in oncological, surgical and QoL outcomes. CONCLUSIONS Most oncological, surgical and QoL parameters did not differ by geographical location of patients undergoing CRS and HIPEC for peritoneal malignancies at a high-volume quaternary referral centre. Observed differences in recurrence and survival may be attributed to the selective nature of surgical referrals and variable follow-up patterns. Future research should focus on characterising referral pathways and its influence on post-operative outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) are considered the gold standard design to determine the effectiveness of an intervention, as the only method of decreasing section bias and minimising random error. However, participant recruitment to randomised controlled trials is a major challenge, with many trials failing to recruit the targeted sample size accordingly to the planned protocol. Thus, the aim of this review is to detail the recruitment challenges of preoperative exercise clinical trials. METHODS A comprehensive search was performed on MEDLINE, Embase, The Cochrane Library, CINAHL, AMED and PsycINFO from inception to July 2021. Randomised controlled trials investigating the effectiveness of preoperative exercise on postoperative complication and/or length of hospital stay in adult cancer patients were included. Main outcomes included recruitment rate, retention rate, number of days needed to screen and recruit one patient and trial recruitment duration. Descriptive statistics were used to summarise outcomes of interest. RESULTS A total of 27 trials were identified, including 3656 patients screened (N = 21) and 1414 randomised (median recruitment rate (interquartile range) = 53.6% (25.2%-67.6%), N = 21). The sample size of the included trials ranged from 19 to 270 (median = 48.0; interquartile range = 40.0-85.0) and the duration of trial recruitment ranged from 3 to 50 months (median = 19.0 months; interquartile range = 10.5-34.0). Overall, a median of 3.6 days was needed to screen one patient, whereas 13.7 days were needed to randomise one participant. Over the trials duration, the median dropout rate was 7.9%. Variations in recruitment outcomes were observed across trials of different cancer types but were not statistically significant. CONCLUSION The recruitment of participants to preoperative exercise randomised controlled trials is challenging, but patient retention appears to be less of a problem. Future trials investigating the effectiveness of a preoperative exercise programme following cancer surgery should consider the time taken to recruit patients. Strategies associated with improved recruitment should be investigated in future studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUNDS The Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic provided challenges to surgical care in Australia. This study aimed to measure the potential impact of COVID-19 on colorectal cancer presentation through surgical volume and cancer staging at a major tertiary referral hospital in the city of Sydney Australia. METHODS A retrospective cohort study was performed using routinely collected data from consecutive colorectal cancer patients undergoing surgery during the COVID-19 period (1 March 2020 to 1 October 2021) and compared with the pre-COVID-19 period (1 March 2018 to 1 October 2019). The main outcomes included patient demographics, surgical volume (including overall, elective and emergency) and cancer staging. Differences in outcomes between the two studied periods were compared using Pearson's chi-squared test, Fisher test or t-test. RESULTS A total of 381 patients composed the COVID-19 group (Mean age = 62.4 years) and 364 patients composed the pre-COVID-19 group (Mean age = 65.6 years; P<0.001). No significant differences were observed for overall, elective or emergency surgical volumes. Patients in the COVID-19 group had a reduction in Stage I and an increase in Stage II and III disease, with Stage IV and recurrent disease being similar with a variation of <1% when compared to the pre-COVID-19 group (P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS Disruptions in patient screening, diagnosis and management from elective surgery restrictions and patient hesitancy may not have resulted in observed changes to surgical volume, however, it may have contributed to an increase in Stages II and III colorectal cancer during COVID-19.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Pelvic exenteration (PE) is an ultra-radical procedure performed for primary or recurrent malignancies confined to the pelvis. Health outcomes for rural Australian populations are generally inferior compared to those from metropolitan centres, however, the effect of geographical location on outcomes following PE is poorly defined. The aim of this study was to investigate how geographical location affects oncological, quality of life (QoL) and survival outcomes following PE. METHODS Consecutive patients undergoing PE between 1994 and 2022 at a single centre were included. Patient post codes were linked with the Australian Statistical Geography Standard Remoteness Structure to stratify patients into five groups based on the geographical location of their residence. Primary outcome measures included patient survival, QoL and oncological outcomes. RESULTS A total of 953 patients were included, of which 626 (65.7%) were from major cities, 227 (23.8%) inner regional, 84 (8.8%) outer regional, 9 (0.9%) remote, and 7 (0.7%) very remote areas. Rural patients were more likely to undergo PE for primary rectal cancer (p = 002) and less likely for recurrent, non-rectal carcinoma (p = 0.027). Rural patients less frequently had health insurance (p < 0.001) but were more likely to have undergone neoadjuvant radiotherapy (p = 0.022). No difference in length-of-admission, in-hospital complication rates, QoL at 36 months or survival was observed between groups. CONCLUSIONS Despite geographical disparities, rural populations undergoing PE achieved equally favourable outcomes as populations from metropolitan areas. Enhancing access to specialised care may facilitate better outcomes of patients residing in regional and remote areas.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recently, the number of prehabilitation trials has increased significantly. The identification of key research priorities is vital in guiding future research directions. Thus, the aim of this collaborative study was to define key research priorities in prehabilitation for patients undergoing cancer surgery. METHODS The Delphi methodology was implemented over three rounds of surveys distributed to prehabilitation experts from across multiple specialties, tumour streams and countries via a secure online platform. In the first round, participants were asked to provide baseline demographics and to identify five top prehabilitation research priorities. In successive rounds, participants were asked to rank research priorities on a 5-point Likert scale. Consensus was considered if > 70% of participants indicated agreement on each research priority. RESULTS A total of 165 prehabilitation experts participated, including medical doctors, physiotherapists, dieticians, nurses, and academics across four continents. The first round identified 446 research priorities, collated within 75 unique research questions. Over two successive rounds, a list of 10 research priorities reached international consensus of importance. These included the efficacy of prehabilitation on varied postoperative outcomes, benefit to specific patient groups, ideal programme composition, cost efficacy, enhancing compliance and adherence, effect during neoadjuvant therapies, and modes of delivery. CONCLUSIONS This collaborative international study identified the top 10 research priorities in prehabilitation for patients undergoing cancer surgery. The identified priorities inform research strategies, provide future directions for prehabilitation research, support resource allocation and enhance the prehabilitation evidence base in cancer patients undergoing surgery.

Abstract
This study aimed to explore patients' perspectives on the adoption of a prehabilitation multimodal online program. Patients recovering from gastrointestinal cancer surgery at a tertiary hospital between October 2021 and November 2022 were invited to participate. An e-Health program including intensity exercises, nutrition and psychological counselling was used. Patients were instructed to navigate the e-Health program over 24 h using an iPad and then complete the study survey. Patients' characteristics, use of technology, views and minimal expected outcomes from a preoperative online program were collected. Of the 30 patients included, most were female, most reported confidence in the use of technology, most considered the online program safe and most agreed it would be beneficial for their health. "Poor preoperative health" and "lack of motivation and encouragement" were identified as the main barriers to the uptake of a preoperative online program, while program 'simplicity' and perceived 'benefits' were the main facilitators. Significant improvement in postoperative outcomes is perceived to influence patients' willingness to participate in a preoperative multimodal e-Health program. Gastrointestinal cancer patients perceived the adoption of a preoperative multimodal e-Health application as safe to be performed at home and of potential benefit to their health. A range of patient's characteristics, barriers and facilitators to the uptake of an online program were identified. These should be considered in future preoperative multimodal online programs to enhance patient experience, adherence and efficacy. The safety and efficacy of the online prehabilitation program will need to be determined in a larger randomized controlled trial.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Perioperative nutritional care has been identified as an important factor in the management of patients undergoing cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). Nevertheless, there is no published consensus on best practice for nutritional management specific to this patient group. The purpose of this study was to identify the current nutrition care practices among international centres performing CRS and HIPEC for patients with peritoneal malignancy. METHODS An online survey was developed and sent to experienced CRS and HIPEC centres. The survey questions covered clinician and institution demographics, formal nutrition care pathways, pre-operative nutrition care, post-operative nutrition support and post-discharge nutritional follow-up. RESULTS Eighty-two centres were contacted, and 42 responses were received. Respondents were from 20 different countries and were mostly dietitians (71%). Nutrition assessments were frequently completed (52% pre-operatively and 86% post-operatively) and most centres used a validated nutrition screening or assessment tool (79%). Perioperative nutrition support with respect to the use of enteral nutrition, parenteral nutrition and enhanced recovery after surgery varied widely between centres. The use of routine parenteral and enteral nutrition was significantly higher in Europe compared with other locations (p = 0.028). CONCLUSIONS Nutrition care is pivotal and has been positively integrated into the complex management of patients undergoing CRS and HIPEC globally, however variation in practice is evident. The findings highlight a unique opportunity to collaboratively investigate the role nutrition plays in determining outcomes and to identify the most appropriate nutrition support methods to achieve improved clinical outcomes for these high-risk patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the reported and observed management of UK children with blunt liver or spleen injury (BLSI) to the American Pediatric Surgical Association (APSA) 2019 BLSI guidance. METHODS UK Paediatric Major Trauma Centres (pMTCs) undertook 1 year of prospective data collection on children admitted to or discussed with those centres with BLSI and an online questionnaire was distributed to all consultants who care for children with BLSI in those centres. RESULTS All 21/21 (100%) pMTCs participated; 131 patients were included and 100/152 (65%) consultants responded to the survey. ICU care was reported and observed to be primarily determined using haemodynamic status or concomitant injuries rather than injury grade, in accordance with APSA guidance. Bed rest was reported to be determined by grade of injury by 63% of survey respondents and observed in a similar proportion of patients. Contrary to APSA guidance, follow-up radiological assessment of the injured spleen or liver was undertaken in 44% of patients before discharge and 32% after discharge, the majority of whom were asymptomatic. CONCLUSIONS UK management of BLSI differs from many aspects of APSA guidance. A shift towards using clinical features to determine ICU admission and readiness for discharge is demonstrated, in line with a strong evidence base. However, routine bed rest and re-imaging after BLSI is common, contrary to APSA guidance. This disparity may exist due to concern that evidence around the incidence, presentation and natural history of complications after conservatively managed BLSI, particularly bleeding from pseudoaneurysms, is weak.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To comprehensively report complications associated with pelvic exenteration and to determine the strength of associations between 3 different grading methodologies and length of stay, quality of life, and physical outcomes. BACKGROUND It is generally accepted that pelvic exenteration is associated with high rates of surgical morbidity. However, methods of reporting in the literature are inconsistent, making it difficult to compare surgical outcomes across studies to determine the impact of surgery on patients. DESIGN A retrospective study. SETTINGS This study was conducted at Royal Prince Alfred Hospital, Sydney, Australia. PATIENTS It included patients who underwent pelvic exenteration between December 2016 and August 2019. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Complications were classified according to the Clavien-Dindo classification, Comprehensive Complication Index, and number of postoperative complications. Correlations between length of stay, physical component score, 6-minute walk test, and sit-to-stand test, and complications as graded using the Clavien-Dindo classification, Comprehensive Complication Index, and the number of complications were explored using Pearson's or point biserial correlation tests. RESULTS In this study, 198 patients were included. The Clavien-Dindo classification was moderately positively correlated with length of stay ( r = 0.519; p < 0.0001), whereas Comprehensive Complication Index ( r = 0.744; p < 0.0001) and the number of complications ( r = 0.751; p < 0.0001) showed a strong correlation with length of stay. All these methodologies were moderately inversely correlated with a predischarge 6-minute walk test (Clavien-Dindo classification: r = -0.359, p = 0.008; Comprehensive Complication Index: r = -0.388, p = 0.007; number of complications: r = -0.467, p < 0.0001). LIMITATIONS This single-center retrospective study involves a small sample size. Classification of grade I and II complications in this cohort of patients who tend to have complex postoperative recovery was challenging and therefore incomplete. The incomplete data may have affected the correlations. CONCLUSIONS Comprehensive Complication Index and the number of postoperative complications were more strongly correlated with length of stay than the Clavien-Dindo classification in patients undergoing pelvic exenteration. Comprehensive Complication Index may be a better grading system to classify postoperative complications following pelvic exenteration. See Video Abstract at http://links.lww.com/DCR/B906 . CLASIFICACIN DE LAS COMPLICACIONES EN LA EXENTERACIN PLVICA LIMITACIONES DE LOS SISTEMAS DE CLASIFICACIN ACTUALES OBJETIVO:Este estudio tuvo como objetivo informar de manera integral las complicaciones asociadas con la exanteración pélvica y determinar la rlacion de las asociaciones entre tres metodologías de clasificación diferentes y la duración de la estadía, la calidad de vida y los resultados físicos.ANTECEDENTES:En general, se acepta que la exanteración pélvica se asocia con altas tasas de morbilidad quirúrgica. Sin embargo, los métodos de notificación en la literatura son inconsistentes, lo que dificulta la comparación de los resultados quirúrgicos entre estudios para determinar el impacto de la cirugía en los pacientes.DISEÑO:Este fue un estudio retrospectivo.AJUSTES:Este estudio se realizó en el Royal Prince Alfred Hospital, Sydney. Australia.PACIENTES:Se incluyeron pacientes a las que se les realizó exenteración pélvica entre diciembre de 2016 y agosto de 2019.PRINCIPALES MEDIDAS DE RESULTADO:Las complicaciones se clasificaron de acuerdo con la Clasificación de Clavien-Dindo, el Índice Integral de Complicaciones y el número de complicaciones posoperatorias. Correlaciones entre la duración de la estadía, la puntuación del componente físico, la prueba de caminata de 6 minutos y la prueba de sentarse y levantarse; y las complicaciones según la clasificación de Clavien-Dindo, el CCI y el número de complicaciones se exploraron mediante las pruebas de correlación biserial de Pearson o Point.RESULTADOS:Un total de 198 pacientes fueron incluidos en este estudio. La clasificación de Clavien-Dindo se correlacionó moderadamente positivamente con la duración de la estancia ( r = 0,519, p < 0,0001), mientras que el índice de complicaciones integrales ( r = 0,744, p < 0,0001) y el número de complicaciones ( r = 0,751, p < 0,0001) mostraron una fuerte correlación con la duración de la estancia. Todas estas metodologías se correlacionaron moderadamente inversamente con la prueba de caminata de 6 minutos antes del alta (Clasificación de Clavien-Dindo: r = -0,359, p = 0,008; Índice de Complicaciones Integrales: r = -0,388, p = 0,007; número de complicaciones: r = -0,467, p < 0,0001).LIMITACIONES:Un estudio retrospectivo de un solo centro incluye un tamaño de muestra pequeño. La clasificación de las complicaciones de grado I y II en esta cohorte de pacientes que tienden a tener una recuperación postoperatoria compleja fue un desafío y, por lo tanto, incompleta. Los datos incompletos pueden haber afectado las correlaciones.CONCLUSIONES:El Índice Integral de Complicaciones y el número de complicaciones postoperatorias se correlacionaron más con la duración de la estancia que la Clasificación de Clavien-Dindo en pacientes con exenteración pélvica. El Índice Integral de Complicaciones puede ser un mejor sistema de clasificación para clasificar las complicaciones posoperatorias después de la exenteración pélvica.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Pelvic exenteration (PE) surgery represents the only potentially curative treatment option for patients with locally advanced or recurrent rectal cancer (LARRC). Given the potential morbidity, whether or not PE should be recommended for an individual patient presents a major decisional conflict. This study aims to identify the outcomes of PE for which there is consensus among patients, carers and clinicians regarding their importance in guiding treatment decision-making, and to develop a risk prediction tool which predicts these outcomes. METHODS AND ANALYSIS This study will be conducted at a specialist PE centre, and employ a mixed-methods study design, divided into three distinct phases. In phase 1, outcomes of PE will be identified through a comprehensive systematic review of the literature (phase 1a), followed by exploration of the experiences of individuals who have undergone PE for LARRC and their carers (phase 1b, target sample size 10-20 patients and 5-10 carers). In phase 2, a survey of patients, their carers and clinicians will be conducted using Delphi methodology to explore consensus around the outcomes of highest priority and the level of influence each outcome should have on treatment decision-making. In phase 3 a, risk prediction tool will be developed using data from a single PE referral centre (estimated sample size 500 patients) to predict priority outcomes using multivariate modelling, and externally validated using data from an international PE collaboration. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION Ethical approval has been granted for phases 1 and 2 (X22-0422 and 2022/ETH02659) and for maintenance of the database used in phase 3 (X13-0283 and HREC/13/RPAH/504). Informed consent will be obtained from participants in phases 1b and 2; a waiver of consent for secondary use of data in phase 3 will be sought. Study results will be submitted for publication in international and/or national peer reviewed journals. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER CRD42022351909.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Healthcare cannot achieve net-zero carbon without addressing operating theatres. The aim of this study was to prioritize feasible interventions to reduce the environmental impact of operating theatres. METHODS This study adopted a four-phase Delphi consensus co-prioritization methodology. In phase 1, a systematic review of published interventions and global consultation of perioperative healthcare professionals were used to longlist interventions. In phase 2, iterative thematic analysis consolidated comparable interventions into a shortlist. In phase 3, the shortlist was co-prioritized based on patient and clinician views on acceptability, feasibility, and safety. In phase 4, ranked lists of interventions were presented by their relevance to high-income countries and low-middle-income countries. RESULTS In phase 1, 43 interventions were identified, which had low uptake in practice according to 3042 professionals globally. In phase 2, a shortlist of 15 intervention domains was generated. In phase 3, interventions were deemed acceptable for more than 90 per cent of patients except for reducing general anaesthesia (84 per cent) and re-sterilization of 'single-use' consumables (86 per cent). In phase 4, the top three shortlisted interventions for high-income countries were: introducing recycling; reducing use of anaesthetic gases; and appropriate clinical waste processing. In phase 4, the top three shortlisted interventions for low-middle-income countries were: introducing reusable surgical devices; reducing use of consumables; and reducing the use of general anaesthesia. CONCLUSION This is a step toward environmentally sustainable operating environments with actionable interventions applicable to both high- and low-middle-income countries.

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.

Abstract
Background: To determine the feasibility, reliability, and safety of the remote five times sit to stand test (5STS) test in patients with gastrointestinal cancer. Methods: Consecutive adult patients undergoing surgical treatment for lower gastrointestinal cancer at a major referral hospital in Sydney between July and November 2022 were included. Participants completed the 5STS test both face-to-face and remotely, with the order randomised. Outcomes included measures of feasibility, reliability, and safety. Results: Of fifty-five patients identified, seventeen (30.9%) were not interested, one (1.8%) had no internet coverage, and thirty-seven (67.3%) consented and completed both 5STS tests. The mean (SD) time taken to complete the face-to-face and remote 5STS tests was 9.1 (2.4) and 9.5 (2.3) seconds, respectively. Remote collection by telehealth was feasible, with only two participants (5.4%) having connectivity issues at the start of the remote assessment, but not interfering with the tests. The remote 5STS test showed excellent reliability (ICC = 0.957), with limits of agreement within acceptable ranges and no significant systematic errors observed. No adverse events were observed within either test environment. Conclusions: Remote 5STS for the assessment of functional lower extremity strength in gastrointestinal cancer patients is feasible, reliable, and safe, and can be used in clinical and research settings.

BACKGROUND To determine surgical, survival and quality of life outcomes across different tumour streams and lessons learned over 28 years. METHODS Consecutive patients undergoing pelvic exenteration at a single, high volume, referral hospital, between 1994 and 2022 were included. Patients were grouped according to their tumour type at presentation as follows, advanced primary rectal cancer, other advanced primary malignancy, locally recurrent rectal cancer, other locally recurrent malignancy and non-malignant indications. The main outcomes included, resection margins, postoperative morbidity, long-term overall survival, and quality of life outcomes. Non-parametric statistics and survival analyses were performed to compare outcomes between groups. RESULTS Of the 1023 pelvic exenterations performed, 981 (95.9%) unique patients were included. Most patients underwent pelvic exenteration due to locally recurrent rectal cancer (N = 321, 32.7%) or advanced primary rectal cancer (N = 286, 29.2%). The rates of clear surgical margins (89.2%; P < 0.001) and 30-days mortality were higher in the advanced primary rectal cancer group (3.2%; P = 0.025). The 5-year overall survival rates were 66.3% in advanced primary rectal cancer and 44.6% in locally recurrent rectal cancer. Quality of life outcomes differed across groups at baseline, but generally had good trajectories thereafter. International benchmarking revelled excellent comparative outcomes. CONCLUSIONS The results of this study demonstrate excellent outcomes overall, but significant differences in surgical, survival and quality of life outcomes across patients undergoing pelvic exenteration due to different tumour streams. The data reported in this manuscript can be utilized by other centres as benchmarking as well as proving both subjective and objective outcome details to support informed decision-making for patients.

Abstract
217 Background: Appendiceal cancers (AC) are rare, associated with peritoneal metastases, and respond poorly to current systemic treatments. There are limited studies on the characteristics and prognostic impact of infiltrating immune cells within the tumour microenvironment (TME) of AC with peritoneal metastases. Infiltrating immune cells are associated with survival outcomes and predict the effectiveness of immunotherapies in solid tumours. Different definitions have been developed to describe infiltrating immune cells and associated structures such as tertiary lymphoid aggregates (TLS). The aim of our study was to describe the immune TME in patients with AC peritoneal metastases to understand mechanisms of sensitivity and resistance to chemoimmunotherapies. Methods: Fresh tissue was collected during cytoreductive surgery from consenting patients with AC with peritoneal disease (Jul 2020-Feb 2022). Uncultured Day 0 tissues were fixed in formalin prior to paraffin embedding (FFPE). Haematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining was performed on sections of FFPE tissue. Sections were evaluated by light microscopy for the presence of immune cells based on morphological appearance. Patterns of infiltrating immune cells were classified based on location (peritumoural, intratumoural, perimucinous, stromal), and aggregation (none, immature, mature). Immune cells forming aggregates were counted and the diameter of aggregates measured using QuPath. Results: We evaluated 25 patients with AC peritoneal disease during the study period. Immune cells were detected in tissues from all except 3 patients; 16 cases (78 immune areas) were low grade (LG) disease of primary appendiceal mucinous neoplasms, and 6 cases (29 immune areas) were high grade (HG) from primary appendiceal adenocarcinomas (Table). Immune cell aggregates had a median diameter of 209 mm (75-491) and median cell count of 892 cells (46-6490). Conclusions: This study represents the first formal description and characterisation of infiltrating immune cells in appendiceal cancer peritoneal metastases. Perimucinous immune cells were not observed in HG disease despite presence of mucin. Intratumoural immune cells were not observed in LG disease, consistent with these tumours being more resistant to chemotherapy. We plan ongoing work correlating the immune features with clinical outcomes alongside immunohistochemical and transcriptomic characterisation of the aggregates. [Table: see text]

Abstract
BACKGROUND Overall survival rates for locally recurrent rectal cancer (LRRC) continue to improve but the evidence concerning health-related quality of life (HrQoL) remains limited. The aim of this study was to describe the short-term HrQoL differences between patients undergoing surgical and palliative treatments for LRRC. METHODS An international, cross-sectional, observational study was undertaken at five centres across the UK and Australia. HrQoL in LRRC patients was assessed using the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC) QLQ-CR29 and functional assessment of cancer therapy - colorectal (FACT-C) questionnaires and subgroups (curative versus palliative) were compared. Secondary analyses included the comparison of HrQoL according to the margin status, location of disease and type of treatment. Scores were interpreted using minimal clinically important differences (MCID) and Cohen effect size (ES). RESULTS Out of 350 eligible patients, a total of 95 patients participated, 74.0 (78.0 per cent) treated with curative intent and 21.0 (22.0 per cent) with palliative intent. Median time between LRRC diagnosis and HrQoL assessments was 4 months. Higher overall FACT-C scores denoting better HrQoL were observed in patients undergoing curative treatment, demonstrating a MCID with a mean difference of 18.5 (P < 0.001) and an ES of 0.6. Patients undergoing surgery had higher scores denoting a higher burden of symptoms for the EORTC CR29 domains of urinary frequency (P < 0.001, ES 0.3) and frequency of defaecation (P < 0.001, ES 0.4). Higher overall FACT-C scores were observed in patients who underwent an R0 resection versus an R1 resection (P = 0.051, ES 0.6). EORTC CR29 scores identified worse body image in patients with posterior/central disease (P = 0.021). Patients undergoing palliative chemoradiation reported worse HrQoL scores with a higher symptom burden on the frequency of defaecation scale compared with palliative chemotherapy (P = 0.041). CONCLUSION Several differences in short-term HrQoL outcomes between patients undergoing curative and palliative treatment for LRRC were documented. Patients undergoing curative surgery reported better overall HrQoL and a higher burden of pelvic symptoms.

Abstract
PURPOSE Qualitative research examining healthcare experiences and needs of people with advanced (metastatic or recurrent) colorectal cancer CRC-A is limited. This study aimed to fill this gap in CRC-A survivors treated with surgical or palliative chemotherapy, through a qualitative study. METHOD Australian adults treated for CRC-A were recruited 0.5-2 years post-surgery or post-diagnosis of CRC-A (for palliative chemotherapy groups). Semi-structured telephone interviews, analysed via framework analysis, explored healthcare experiences. Demographic, clinical, and quality of life data characterised the sample and informed framework analyses. Data was compared against the Institute of Medicine's framework for quality healthcare. RESULTS Interviews from 38 participants (22 female) of median age 59 years (range 27-84) revealed six overarching themes relating to the safety, effectiveness, timeliness, patient-centredness, efficiency, and equity of CRC-A care: 1) Early experiences influence later perceptions; 2) Trusting the system, trusting the professionals; 3) The benefits of multidisciplinary care co-ordination; 4) Feeling lost in follow-up; 5) Whose role is it anyway? Gaps in responsibility for survivorship care; and 6) Useful or useless? Perceptions of psychosocial support. CONCLUSIONS Healthcare systems for CRC-A can be improved through delivery of repeated information, upskilling general practitioners and/or implementing written survivorship care plans or survivorship clinics, to ensure quality healthcare.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intrinsic capacity (IC) and frailty are complementary in advancing disability prevention through maintaining functionality. OBJECTIVES We examined the relationship between IC and frailty status at baseline and 1-year, and evaluated if IC decline predicts frailty onset among robust older adults. The secondary objectives investigated associations between IC, physical fitness and health-related outcomes. DESIGN Prospective cohort study. SETTING Community-based assessments. PARTICIPANTS Older adults aged>55 years, who were independent in ambulation (walking aids permitted). MEASUREMENTS 5 domains of IC were assessed at baseline: locomotion (Short Physical Performance Battery, 6-minute walk test), vitality (nutritional status, muscle mass), sensory (self-reported hearing and vision), cognition (self-reported memory, age- and education adjusted cognitive performance), psychological (Geriatric Depression Scale-15, self-reported anxiety/ depression). Composite IC (0-10) was calculated, with higher scores representing greater IC. Frailty status was based on modified Fried criteria, with frailty progression defined as incremental Fried score at 1-year. RESULTS 809 participants (67.6+6.8 years) had complete data for all 5 IC domains. 489 (60.4%) participants were robust but only 213 (26.3%) had no decline in any IC domain. Pre-frail and frail participants were more likely to exhibit decline in all 5 IC domains (p<0.05), with decremental composite IC [9 (8-9), 8 (6-9), 5.5 (4-7.5), p<0.001] across robust, prefrail and frail. IC was significantly associated with fitness performance, independent of age and gender. Higher composite IC reduced risk for frailty progression (OR=0.62, 95% CI 0.48-0.80), and reduced frailty onset among robust older adults (OR=0.53, 95% CI 0.37-0.77), independent of age, comorbidities and social vulnerability. Participants with higher IC were less likely to experience health deterioration (OR=0.70, 95% CI 0.58-0.83), falls (OR=0.76, 95% CI 0.65-0.90) and functional decline (OR=0.64, 95% CI 0.50-0.83) at 1-year. CONCLUSION Declining IC may present before frailty becomes clinically manifest, increasing risk for poor outcomes. Monitoring of IC domains potentially facilitates personalized interventions to avoid progressive frailty.

Abstract
AbstractThe aim of this study was to describe the levels of depression, anxiety, stress, and distress in patients undergoing cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). The 21-item Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS-21) and Distress Thermometer were administered preoperatively, postoperatively day 10, and at hospital discharge to 169 patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis undergoing CRS and HIPEC. The mean preoperative values for DASS-21 subscale scores were 4.7 (depression), 4.2 (anxiety), and 8.4 (stress), and the mean preoperative Distress Thermometer rating was 4.0. No significant changes in levels of depression, stress, or distress were noted thereafter. The DASS-21 anxiety subscale score significantly increased at hospital discharge (p = .005). Higher levels of preoperative psychological depression, anxiety, stress and distress were associated with worse mental component scores. Higher preoperative depression levels were associated with the provision of more clinical psychologist occasions of service, and higher preoperative distress levels were associated with younger age. Preoperative psychological measures are important for ensuring CRS and HIPEC patients that require additional support are identified and provided with ongoing psychological interventions.

Abstract
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a complex multiorgan disease, which often affects the gastrointestinal tract. With improved CF specific therapies and multidisciplinary management, patients with CF are now living longer with a median life expectancy of around 50 years. This increased life expectancy has resulted in corresponding increase in presentations of the CF patient with comorbid surgical conditions that were never important considerations. Investigations and management of these conditions, such as distal intestinal obstruction syndrome and colorectal cancer warrant good clinical understanding of the unique challenges that CF patients present including chronic immunosuppression, impaired respiratory function and their multi-organ dysfunction. The purpose of this review is to provide general surgeons with a contemporary update on the CF related surgical issues as they are likely to become increasingly involved in the care of these complex patients and form an integral part of the multidisciplinary team.

Abstract
Introduction Microsurgery for the clipping of intracranial aneurysms remains a technically challenging and high-risk area of neurosurgery. We aimed to describe the technical challenges of aneurysm surgery, and the scope for technological innovations to overcome these barriers from the perspective of practising neurovascular surgeons. Materials and Methods Consultant neurovascular surgeons and members of the British Neurovascular Group (BNVG) were electronically invited to participate in an online survey regarding surgery for both ruptured and unruptured aneurysms. The free text survey asked three questions: what do they consider to be the principal technical barriers to aneurysm clipping? What technological advances have previously contributed to improving the safety and efficacy of aneurysm clipping? What technological advances do they anticipate improving the safety and efficacy of aneurysm clipping in the future? A qualitative synthesis of responses was performed using multi-rater emergent thematic analysis. Results The most significant reported historical advances in aneurysm surgery fell into five themes: (1) optimising clip placement, (2) minimising brain retraction, (3) tissue handling, (4) visualisation and orientation, and (5) management of intraoperative rupture. The most frequently reported innovation by far was indocyanine green angiography (84% of respondents). The three most commonly cited future advances were hybrid surgical and endovascular techniques, advances in intraoperative imaging, and patient-specific simulation and planning. Conclusions While some surgeons perceive that the rate of innovation in aneurysm clipping has been dwarfed in recent years by endovascular techniques, surgeons surveyed highlighted a broad range of future technologies that have the potential to continue to improve the safety of aneurysm surgery in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Stratifying risk of postoperative pulmonary complications after major abdominal surgery allows clinicians to modify risk through targeted interventions and enhanced monitoring. In this study, we aimed to identify and validate prognostic models against a new consensus definition of postoperative pulmonary complications. METHODS We did a systematic review and international external validation cohort study. The systematic review was done in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. We searched MEDLINE and Embase on March 1, 2020, for articles published in English that reported on risk prediction models for postoperative pulmonary complications following abdominal surgery. External validation of existing models was done within a prospective international cohort study of adult patients (≥18 years) undergoing major abdominal surgery. Data were collected between Jan 1, 2019, and April 30, 2019, in the UK, Ireland, and Australia. Discriminative ability and prognostic accuracy summary statistics were compared between models for the 30-day postoperative pulmonary complication rate as defined by the Standardised Endpoints in Perioperative Medicine Core Outcome Measures in Perioperative and Anaesthetic Care (StEP-COMPAC). Model performance was compared using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROCC). FINDINGS In total, we identified 2903 records from our literature search; of which, 2514 (86·6%) unique records were screened, 121 (4·8%) of 2514 full texts were assessed for eligibility, and 29 unique prognostic models were identified. Nine (31·0%) of 29 models had score development reported only, 19 (65·5%) had undergone internal validation, and only four (13·8%) had been externally validated. Data to validate six eligible models were collected in the international external validation cohort study. Data from 11 591 patients were available, with an overall postoperative pulmonary complication rate of 7·8% (n=903). None of the six models showed good discrimination (defined as AUROCC ≥0·70) for identifying postoperative pulmonary complications, with the Assess Respiratory Risk in Surgical Patients in Catalonia score showing the best discrimination (AUROCC 0·700 [95% CI 0·683-0·717]). INTERPRETATION In the pre-COVID-19 pandemic data, variability in the risk of pulmonary complications (StEP-COMPAC definition) following major abdominal surgery was poorly described by existing prognostication tools. To improve surgical safety during the COVID-19 pandemic recovery and beyond, novel risk stratification tools are required. FUNDING British Journal of Surgery Society.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The molecular profile of early-onset colonic cancer is undefined. This study evaluated clinicopathological features and oncological outcomes of young patients with colonic cancer according to microsatellite status. METHODS Anonymized data from an international collaboration were analysed. Criteria for inclusion were patients younger than 50 years diagnosed with stage I-III colonic cancer that was surgically resected. Clinicopathological features, microsatellite status, and disease-specific outcomes were evaluated. RESULTS A total of 650 patients fulfilled the criteria for inclusion. Microsatellite instability (MSI) was identified in 170 (26.2 per cent), whereas 480 had microsatellite-stable (MSS) tumours (relative risk of MSI 2.5 compared with older patients). MSI was associated with a family history of colorectal cancer and lesions in the proximal colon. The proportions with pathological node-positive disease (45.9 versus 45.6 per cent; P = 1.000) and tumour budding (20.3 versus 20.5 per cent; P = 1.000) were similar in the two groups. Patients with MSI tumours were more likely to have BRAF (22.5 versus 6.9 per cent; P < 0.001) and KRAS (40.0 versus 24.2 per cent; P = 0.006) mutations, and a hereditary cancer syndrome (30.0 versus 5.0 per cent; P < 0.001; relative risk 6). Five-year disease-free survival rates in the MSI group were 95.0, 92.0, and 80.0 per cent for patients with stage I, II, and III tumours, compared with 88.0, 88.0, and 65.0 per cent in the MSS group (P = 0.753, P = 0.487, and P = 0.105 respectively). CONCLUSION Patients with early-onset colonic cancer have a high risk of MSI and defined genetic conditions. Those with MSI tumours have more adverse pathology (budding, KRAS/BRAF mutations, and nodal metastases) than older patients with MSI cancers.

Abstract
3629 Background: Appendiceal cancers (AC) are rare with varied prognosis. Nomenclature refined by the WHO 2019 classification is: appendiceal mucinous neoplasms (AMNs), adenocarcinomas (AA) including mucinous (MAC), not otherwise specified (ANOS), signet ring (SRC) and goblet cell (GCA), and neuroendocrine tumours (NET). Cytoreductive surgery and heated intraperitoneal chemotherapy (CRS+HIPEC) is the definitive treatment. The role of chemotherapy remains unclear with conflicting outcomes and there is need to delineate the optimal regimen in different disease settings. The aim of this study was to evaluate AC treatment and clinical outcomes by the WHO 2019 classification and analyse the impact of perioperative chemotherapy. Methods: We reviewed prospective data from the database at an Australian state peritonectomy service, Apr 2017-Dec 2021. Variables included demographics, tumour characteristics, treatment details and survival outcomes. Analysis was by the Kaplan-Meier method using the log-rank test for statistical comparison (SPSSv27). Results: 115 patients (of 207 referred) with confirmed AC proceeded to CRS. Histopathology comprised 49 AMNs (43%), 62 (63%) AA, 3 SRCs and 1 NET. The mean age was 56y (21-78), 53% female. 94% had CRS+HIPEC (Mitomycin 85%). 70% had cytoreductive score 0. The median peritoneal cancer index was 23 (0-39). 20 (17%) had localised (M0) disease, 10 acellular mucin (M1a) and 85 (74%) metastases (M1b/c). 71% were lymph node negative (N0). 40% had chemotherapy (oxaliplatin/5-fluorouracil 57%). 8 of 15 who had molecular testing had a KRAS mutation. Median follow-up was 26m (1.9-167). The table shows univariate survival analysis. Conclusions: This is the first study evaluating outcomes of perioperative chemotherapy for AC in a cohort of patients since the WHO 2019 classification. MAC have worse survival compared to ANOS, but similar to GCAs. Peritoneal acellular mucin has a similarly improved prognosis to patients with no peritoneal disease compared to those with cellular disease. Chemotherapy demonstrated worse survival compared to no chemotherapy, also seen in the literature and likely influenced by selection of more aggressive disease. There is a need to develop biomarkers and better treatments to improve the survival of these patients. Further multivariate analysis for prognostic and predictive factors is planned.[Table: see text]

Abstract
4160 Background: Appendiceal cancers (AC) are rare with 5-year survival of 15% for high grade (HG) adenocarcinomas and 75% for low grade (LG) mucinous neoplasms. There is limited literature on the AC tumour microenvironment (TME) in disease progression and drug resistance. Ex vivo cultures, such as patient derived explants (PDEs), have been used for other solid tumours to test anticancer agents, explore the TME, and are being developed as personalised models. The aim of our study was to develop a PDE model of AC, preserve the TME, study the biological profile of AC and test novel therapies. Methods: Fresh tissue was collected during cytoreductive surgery (CRS) from consenting patients with AC with peritoneal disease, Jul 2020-Mar 2021. Tissues from 10 patients were dissected and cultured as PDEs under varying conditions of tissue size, media, matrix support and duration (Table). Uncultured Day 0 tissues and PDEs were fixed in formalin prior to paraffin embedding (FFPE). Immunohistochemical staining was performed on sections of FFPE tissue to assess viability with antibodies against the tumour marker, Cytokeratin-20 (CK20), and cell death marker, cleaved caspase 3 (CC3). Tissue architecture was rated on a 4-point scale (MS, J-SS). Cancer cells were counted in 6 Day 0 samples and PDEs from 3 patients using QuPath v0.3.2. Apoptotic index (AI) was calculated as the proportion of cells positive for CC3 divided by the number of total CK20 positive cells. Results: The mean proportion of tumour and mucin in the tissues was 3% (0-60%) and 39% (0-95%) respectively. Day 0 samples were viable with mean AI of cancer cells 7% (0-4%). Tissue architecture was maintained, as compared to Day 0 control, for varying sizes of PDE and culture durations up to 4d. More small or medium-sized PDEs had improved architecture compared to large sized PDEs (Table). PDEs at 4d had poorer architecture compared to at 1-3d. There was improved architecture in PDEs using enriched media with support factors compared to base media, and in specimens with matrix support compared to none. The mean AI of PDE cancer cells was 21% (0-92%) and 51% of PDEs had no cancer cell death. Conclusions: This is the first study demonstrating that AC tissue is amenable to ex vivo culture as PDEs. The optimal PDE model was <10mm tissue placed on a gelatine sponge in enriched media for 1-3d. PDEs had preserved tissue architecture and viability compared to uncultured tissue. Protein expression was in keeping with the original tumour. We plan to use this model to test anticancer agents and explore the TME of AC.[Table: see text]

Abstract
Background Radical surgery is the mainstream treatment for patients presenting with advanced primary or recurrent gastrointestinal cancers; however, the rate of postoperative complications is exceptionally high. The current evidence suggests that improving patients’ fitness during the preoperative period may enhance postoperative recovery. Thus, the primary aim of this study is to establish the effectiveness of prehabilitation with a progressive, individualised, preoperative exercise and education program compared to usual care alone in reducing the proportion of patients with postoperative in-hospital complications. The secondary aims are to investigate the effectiveness of the preoperative intervention on reducing the length of intensive care unit and hospital stay, improving quality of life and morbidity, and reducing costs. Methods This is a multi-centre, assessor-blinded, pragmatic, comparative, randomised controlled trial. A total of 172 patients undergoing pelvic exenteration, cytoreductive surgery, oesophagectomy, hepatectomy, gastrectomy or pancreatectomy will be recruited. Participants will be randomly allocated to prehabilitation with a preoperative exercise and education program (intervention group), delivered over 4 to 8 weeks before surgery by community physiotherapists/exercise physiologists, or usual care alone (control group). The intervention will comprise 12 to 24 individualised, progressive exercise sessions (including aerobic/anaerobic, resistance, and respiratory exercises), recommendations of home exercises (16 to 32 sessions), and daily incidental physical activity advice. Outcome measures will be collected at baseline, the week prior to surgery, during the hospital stay, and on the day of discharge from hospital, and 1 month and 1 months postoperatively. The primary outcome will be the development of in-hospital complications. Secondary outcomes include the length of intensive care unit and hospital stay, quality of life, postoperative morbidity and costs. Discussion The successful completion of this trial will provide robust and high-quality evidence on the efficacy of a preoperative community- and home-based exercise and education intervention on important postoperative outcomes of patients undergoing major gastrointestinal cancer surgery. Trial registration This trial was registered prospectively with the Australian New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry (ACTRN12621000617864) on 24th May 2021.

Abstract
Background Early‐onset colorectal cancer (EOCRC) (<50 years) incidence has increased in Australia and worldwide. However, the diagnosis of EOCRC is often delayed. Recent research has discovered some differences from later‐onset colorectal cancer (LOCRC) (>50 years). An awareness of the unique features of EOCRC is crucial to reduce time from symptom onset to diagnosis. Methods A literature search was conducted on electronic databases (MEDLINE, EMBASE and Cochrane Library) using the search terms “early onset colorectal cancer” or “young onset colorectal cancer.” Results The American Cancer Society has reduced the colorectal cancer screening initiation age to 45 for average‐risk adults whilst screening programmes in the United Kingdom and Australia remain unchanged with initiation at 60 and 50, respectively. Exposures resulting in dysbiosis (obesity, westernised diet, alcohol, antibiotic and sugar‐sweetened beverage consumption) have been linked with increased EOCRC risk. EOCRC is often left‐sided presenting with rectal bleeding, altered bowel habit and constitutional symptoms. EOCRC is more commonly sporadic than hereditary, harbouring different genetic mutations than LOCRC. Comparative survival outcomes of EOCRC and LOCRC are conflicting with studies suggesting either better or poorer survival. Young patients better tolerate treatment‐related toxicities, which may account for their improved survival despite comparatively advanced stages and poorer histopathological features at diagnosis. Conclusion Current EOCRC literature is limited by American‐focused datasets and heterogenous EOCRC definitions and study designs (the greatest strength of evidence exists for EOCRC risk factor studies comprised of large retrospective cohorts). There is minimal research into the quality of life and surgical outcomes of EOCRC patients, and this area warrants further investigation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Late-onset complications in X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA) are increasingly recognized. Nodular regenerative hyperplasia (NRH) has been reported in primary immunodeficiency but data in XLA are limited. OBJECTIVES This study sought to describe NRH prevalence, associated features, and impact in patients with XLA. METHODS Medical records of all patients with XLA referred to the National Institutes of Health between October 1994 and June 2019 were reviewed. Liver biopsies were performed when clinically indicated. Patients were stratified into NRH+ or NRH- groups, according to their NRH biopsy status. Fisher exact test and Mann-Whitney test were used for statistical comparisons. RESULTS Records of 21 patients with XLA were reviewed, with a cumulative follow-up of 129 patient-years. Eight patients underwent ≥1 liver biopsy of whom 6 (29% of the National Institutes of Health XLA cohort) were NRH+. The median age at NRH diagnosis was 20 years (range, 17-31). Among patients who had liver biopsies, alkaline phosphatase levels were only increased in patients who were NRH+ (P = .04). Persistently low platelet count (<100,000 per μL for >6 months), mildly to highly elevated hepatic venous pressure gradient and either hepatomegaly and/or splenomegaly were present in all patients who were NRH+. In opposition, persistently low platelet counts were not seen in patients who were NRH-, and hepatosplenomegaly was observed in only 1 patient who was NRH-. Hepatic venous pressure gradient was normal in the only patient tested who was NRH-. All-cause mortality was higher among patients who were NRH+ (5 of 6, 83%) than in the rest of the cohort (1 of 15, 7% among patients who were NRH- and who were classified as unknown; P = .002). CONCLUSIONS NRH is an underreported, frequent, and severe complication in XLA, which is associated with increased morbidity and mortality.

Abstract
Malignant mesothelioma with EWSR1-ATF1 fusion is a rare malignancy described in young adults without asbestos exposure. To the best of our knowledge, outcomes to local and systemic therapies for this subtype of malignant mesothelioma have not been described. This case report describes the clinical course of a 19-year-old man diagnosed with malignant peritoneal mesothelioma with EWSR1-ATF1 fusion localized to the abdomen. His disease followed an aggressive course and resulted in limited survival (18 mo). There was treatment resistance to several lines of conventional local and systemic treatments for peritoneal mesothelioma and biologically targeted MET inhibition with crizotinib. More research is required in this rare subtype of peritoneal mesothelioma.

Abstract
Importance The incidence of early-onset colorectal cancer (younger than 50 years) is rising globally, the reasons for which are unclear. It appears to represent a unique disease process with different clinical, pathological, and molecular characteristics compared with late-onset colorectal cancer. Data on oncological outcomes are limited, and sensitivity to conventional neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapy regimens appear to be unknown. The purpose of this review is to summarize the available literature on early-onset colorectal cancer. Observations Within the next decade, it is estimated that 1 in 10 colon cancers and 1 in 4 rectal cancers will be diagnosed in adults younger than 50 years. Potential risk factors include a Westernized diet, obesity, antibiotic usage, and alterations in the gut microbiome. Although genetic predisposition plays a role, most cases are sporadic. The full spectrum of germline and somatic sequence variations implicated remains unknown. Younger patients typically present with descending colonic or rectal cancer, advanced disease stage, and unfavorable histopathological features. Despite being more likely to receive neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapy, patients with early-onset disease demonstrate comparable oncological outcomes with their older counterparts. Conclusions and Relevance The clinicopathological features, underlying molecular profiles, and drivers of early-onset colorectal cancer differ from those of late-onset disease. Standardized, age-specific preventive, screening, diagnostic, and therapeutic strategies are required to optimize outcomes.

Abstract
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) and its satellite virus hepatitis D (HDV) are common worldwide hepatotrophic infections responsible for cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The more common HBV infection has several therapeutic regimens currently available for suppression of viral replication. However, a regimen leading to an effective sustained functional cure is still not available. In contrast, HDV infection, which causes the most severe form of chronic viral hepatitis and an increased rate of HCC, currently has no Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved treatment. Bulevirtide is a novel virion entry inhibitor which blocks the virion's hepatocyte pathway of entry, the hepatic sodium/taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide (NTCP) receptor, and is now a promising therapy for both infections. In July 2020 bulevirtide was authorized for use in the E.U. following a positive opinion by the European Medicines Agency (EMA) for the treatment of chronic HDV infection in HDV RNA-positive adult patients with compensated liver disease. In this paper we have examined the studies that led to this approval as well as studies examining the drug's efficacy in treating HBV.

Abstract
BACKGROUNDS There is mixed evidence on the value of preoperative cardiorespiratory exercise test (CPET) to predict postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing a cancer surgical procedure. The purpose of this review was to investigate the association between preoperative CPET variables and postoperative complications, length of hospital stay, and quality of life in patients undergoing cancer surgery. METHODS A search was conducted on MEDLINE, Embase, AMED, and Web of science from inception to April 2020. Cohort studies investigating the association between preoperative CPET variables, including peak oxygen uptake (peak VO2), anaerobic threshold (AT), or ventilatory equivalent for carbon dioxide (VE/VCO2), and postoperative outcomes (complications, length of stay, and quality of life) were included. Risk of bias was assessed using the QUIPS tool. A random-effect model meta-analysis was performed whenever possible. RESULTS Fifty-two unique studies, including 10,030 patients were included. Overall, most studies were rated as having low risk of bias. Higher preoperative peak VO2 was associated with absence of postoperative complications (mean difference [MD]: 2.28; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.26-3.29) and no pulmonary complication (MD: 1.47; 95% CI: 0.49-2.45). Preoperative AT and VE/VCO2 also demonstrated some positive trends. None of the included studies reported a negative trend. CONCLUSIONS This systematic review and meta-analysis demonstrated a significant association between superior preoperative CPET values, especially peak VO2, and better postoperative outcomes. The assessment of preoperative functional capacity in patients undergoing cancer surgery has the potential to facilitate treatment decision making.

Abstract
AIM The aim of this work was to report on the safety and feasibility of warm humidified CO2 (WHCO2 ) insufflation during cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). METHOD Ten consecutive patients with histologically confirmed peritoneal cancer were enrolled in this phase I pilot nonrandomized controlled trial. They were alternately assigned to CRS and HIPEC with WHCO2 versus standard procedure. WHCO2 was delivered at 10 L/min, a pressure of 4.5 bar, 37ºC and 98% relative humidity during CRS using the HumiGardTM system. HIPEC was performed with an open abdomen using the Coliseum technique at 42ºC for 60 min. All patients were admitted to the intensive care unit and commenced on total parenteral nutrition postoperatively. Surface and core temperatures were measured every 30 min using an infrared camera and nasopharyngeal probe, respectively. Clinicopathological, intra- and postoperative details were collated between groups, and median surface and core temperatures were statistically compared. RESULTS Surface and core temperatures were generally higher in the WHCO2 group. Core temperature at 120 and 180 min was significantly higher in the WHCO2 versus the non-WHCO2 group (p = 0.028 and 0.008, respectively). There was a significant linear relationship between core and surface temperature at 30, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 180 min (p = 0.033, 0.004, 0.007, 0.021, 0.009 and 0.006, respectively). The peritoneal cancer index was lower but the estimated blood loss was higher in the non-WHCO2 than the WHCO2 group. CONCLUSION WHCO2 in CRS and HIPEC appears to be safe and feasible. An appropriately powered phase II trial will be required to determine if WHCO2 is associated with improved intra- and postoperative outcomes.

Abstract
Objective To establish the feasibility and acceptability of a preoperative exercise program, and to obtain pilot data on the likely difference in key surgical outcomes to inform the sample size calculation for a full-scale trial. Design Pilot randomized controlled trial. Setting Royal Prince Alfred Hospital, Sydney, Australia. Subjects We included patients undergoing elective pelvic exenteration or cytoreductive surgery aged 18 to 80 years, who presented to the participating gastrointestinal surgeon at least 2 weeks prior to surgery. Patients presenting cognitive impairment, co-morbidity preventing participation in exercise, inadequate English language, currently participating in an exercise program or unable to attend the exercise program sessions were excluded. Methods Participants were randomized to a 2–6 weeks preoperative, face-to-face, individualised exercise program or to usual care. Feasibility was assessed with consent rates to the study, and for the intervention group, retention and adherence rates to the preoperative exercise program. Acceptability of the exercise program was assessed with a semi-structured questionnaire exploring the advice received and the amount, duration and intensity of the exercise program. In addition, postoperative complication rates (Clavien-Dindo), length of hospital stay and self-reported measures of health-related quality of life (SF-36v2) were collected at baseline, day before surgery and in-hospital up to discharge from hospital. Results Of 122 patients screened, 26 (21%) were eligible and 22 (85%) accepted to participate in the trial and were randomized to the intervention (11; 50%) or control group (11; 50%). The median age of the include participants was 63 years. Adherence to the preoperative exercise sessions was 92.7%, with all participants either satisfied (33%) or extremely satisfied (67%) with the overall design of the preoperative exercise program. No significant differences in outcomes were found between groups. Conclusions The results of our pilot trial demonstrate that a preoperative exercise program is feasible and acceptable to patients undergoing major abdominal cancer surgery. There is an urgent need for a definite trial investigating the effectiveness of a preoperative exercise program on postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing major abdominal cancer surgery. This could potentially reduce postoperative complication rates, length of hospital stay and subsequently overall health care costs. Trial registration ACTRN12617001129370.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cost-effective cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for treatment of patients with peritoneal malignancy remains an ongoing financial challenge for healthcare systems, hospitals and patients. This study aims to describe the detailed in-hospital costs of CRS and HIPEC compared with an Australian Activity Based Funding (ABF) system, and to evaluate how the learning curve, disease entities and surgical outcomes influence in-hospital costs. METHODS A retrospective descriptive costing review of all CRS and HIPEC cases undertaken at a large public tertiary referral hospital in Sydney, Australia from April 2017 to June 2019. In-hospital cost variables included staff, critical care, diagnosis, operating theatre, and other costs. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted to investigate the differences between actual cost and the provision of funding, and potential factors associated with these costs. RESULTS Of the 118 CRS and HIPEC procedures included in the analyses, the median total cost was AU$130,804 (IQR: 105,744 to 153,972). Provision of funding via the ABF system was approximately one-third of the total CRS and HIPEC costs (p < 0.001). Surgical staff proficiency seems to reduce the total CRS and HIPEC costs. Surgical time, length of intensive care unit and hospital stay are the main predictors of total CRS and HIPEC costs. CONCLUSION Delivery of CRS and HIPEC is expensive with high variability. A standard ABF system grossly underestimates the specific CRS and HIPEC funding required with supplementation essential to sustaining this complex highly specialised service.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to describe short- and medium-term longitudinal quality-of-life (QoL) outcomes after cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC). METHODS Consecutive patients undergoing CRS and HIPEC were recruited. The primary outcome was QoL, measured using the short-form 36 questionnaire and expressed as a physical component score (PCS) and a mental component score (MCS), with higher scores representing better QoL. Data were collected prospectively at baseline and before discharge, then 3, 6, and 12 months postoperatively. Trajectories of the PCS and MCS were described for the study period and grouped according to a peritoneal carcinomatosis index (PCI) (≤ 12 vs. ≥ 13) and a completeness of cytoreduction (CC) score (CC0 vs. CC1-CC3). RESULTS Overall, 117 patients underwent CRS and HIPEC and 115 (98.3%) of the 117 patients participated in the study. The main primary pathology was colorectal in 52 (45%) of the 115 patients and appendiceal in 27 (23.5%) of the 115 patients. The median baseline PCS [48.16; interquartile range (IQR), 38.6-54.9] had decreased at pre-discharge (35.34; IQR, 28.7-41.8), then increased slightly at 3 months (42.54; IQR, 37.6-51.6), before returning to baseline within 6 months (48.35; IQR, 39.1-52.5) and remaining unchanged 12 months after surgery (48.55; IQR, 40.8-55.5). The MCS remained unchanged during the study period. The patients with a PCI of 13 or higher had worse PCS and MCS during the postoperative period than the patients with a PCI of 12 or lower. CONCLUSIONS The CRS and HIPEC procedures impaired PCS, with scores returning to baseline within 6 months after surgery, whereas MCS remained unchanged. The patients with a lower PCI had better postoperative QoL outcomes. For patients with peritoneal malignancy, CRS and HIPEC can be performed with acceptable short- to medium-term QoL outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intravesical botulinum toxin A (BtA) injection is well established in managing paediatric neuropathic detrusor overactivity (NDO). Electromotive drug administration (EMDA) is a less invasive method, which can be performed in the clinic, using pulsed electrical current for drug delivery via a urethral catheter. Few small studies report good outcomes following BtA via EMDA (BtA/EMDA) into bladders of children with NDO. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study is to assess the efficacy of BtA/EMDA in children with NDO, reduced bladder capacity and compliance. METHODS Twelve children with NDO on baseline urodynamic study were prospectively included. Pre-BtA/EMDA and post-BtA/EMDA results compared the following four parameters: maximal cystometric capacity, bladder compliance, maximal detrusor pressure (pDetmax) during detrusor overactivity and pDetmax at capacity. The Wilcoxon matched-pairs signed-rank test using Graphpad Prism 8 was used for analysis. Secondary outcomes include adverse effects and symptomatic improvement. RESULTS Fourteen episodes of BtA/EMDA were performed. Five patients received 3.3 IU/kg of Botox®, and five received 10 IU/kg (maximum 300 IU). Four patients received 10 IU/kg of Dysport®. Two patients in the Dysport®/EMDA group also received Botox®/EMDA more than six months previously. Thirteen of 14 post-EMDA results were completed and included in the paired analysis. No statistically significant improvements in any cystometric parameters were demonstrated. Eight patients subsequently had intravesical BtA injections with significant improvements in both cystometric parameters and symptoms. Two patients subsequently transitioned to adult services; one was commenced on mirabegron, and one has undergone ileocystoplasty with Mitrofanoff appendicovesicostomy. DISCUSSION Despite some evidence to support BtA/EMDA in children with NDO, the authors were unable to replicate previously published positive cystometric and symptomatic outcomes. In addition, BtA/EMDA performed poorly when compared with conventional intravesical BtA injections. This implies failure of EMDA to deliver BtA correctly to the target tissue. The large size of the BtA molecule or the abnormal bladder wall in NDO could account for the negative results. Thorough preparation and consultation was undertaken before this study with BtA/EMDA, and it is discouraging that the authors were unable to reproduce the positive results of other groups. CONCLUSIONS Although safe and acceptable to most patients, the authors cannot recommend the use of BtA/EMDA for NDO in children at present.
