The aim of this present diagnostic study is to determine the accuracy by which we can detect residual disease after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy.
To describe the human gastrointestinal microcirculation during gastrointestinal surgery under general anesthesia and to observe whether there is a correlation between bowel microcirculation and systemic hemodynamic parameters.
To assess and compare the gastric emptying rate and gut hormone levels between patients one year after standard RYGB (S-RYGB), B-RYGB and EP-RYGB.
ObjectiveTo identify biomarkers for CAL in drain fluid and serum, in addition to RT-PCR for E. faecalis, that increase specificity and positive predictive value.
