To determine the kinetics of several immune cell subsets to evaluate the immune response to tissue damage and surgical manipulation caused by laparoscopic surgery. Additionally we aim to identify prognostic parameters for postoperative ileus, which…
The aim of this study is to determine feasibility of perineal reconstruction using a gluteal subcutaneous transposition flap (Luna flap) after eAPR for rectal cancer.
The aim is to determine the effectiveness of adjuvant HIPEC using oxaliplatin following a curative resection of a pT4 or intra-abdominally perforated colon cancer in preventing the development of PC in comparison to the standard adjuvant systemic…
To evaluate the benefits, risks and costs of laparoscopic gastrectomy as an alternative to open gastrectomy (gold standard) as treatment for gastric cancer in a Western population.
To assess the short term and medium term weight loss after bariatric surgery compared to conservative therapy, to determine the prevalence and the effect of weight loss on obesity associated morbidity in adolescence, to measure the effect of…
There is evidence however that abdominal wall blocks, such as TAP blocks, could help managing the postoperative pain, but covering the visceral pain is not possible with this technique. It is not even clear to date which component of pain, the…
Primary objective:1. To explore the effect of flushing after HIPEC on tissue platinum exposureSecondary objectives:1. To explore the effect of flushing after HIPEC on wound exudate platinum concentration2. To explore the effect of flushing after…
Primary objectives: To assess the feasibility, accuracy and safety of preoperative SPECT/CT and intraoperative fluorescence imaging after administration of 111In-labetuzumab-IRDye800CW in patients with PC of colorectal origin who will undergo…
This pilot study aims to report on the diagnostic value of indocyanine green and fluorescence laparoscopy on vascularization defects of the stomach and spleen during antireflux surgery.It is our hypothesis that many splenic and gastric infarctions…
This study is designed to explore the feasibility and added value of NIRF in minimally invasive esophagectomy and secondly to assess gastric conduit perfusion with intravenous injection of ICG.
- To evaluate the impact of the use of Sylys® Surgical Sealant as an adjunct to standard anastomosis closure techniques on anastomotic leak rate. - To evaluate the impact of the use of Sylys® Surgical Sealant on the overall number of anastomosis-…
Primary Objective: To assess the effect of bariatric and, eventually, subsequent body contouring surgery on appearance and HRQoL over time using the BODY-Q questionnaire. Secondary Objectives: The secondary objectives are (1) psychometric validation…
To assess the feasibility of real-time MRI temperature monitoring and ablation zone assessment during RFA of LAPC.
The goal of this study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of stopping postoperative antibiotic treatment after 48 hours of intravenous therapy versus continuing for three more days (to complete a total of five days which is common practice),…
The primary objective of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of LifeSeal* Kit as measured by the change in overall anastomotic leak rates in subjects undergoing low anterior resection with an anastomosis below 10 cm from the anal verge,…
Our hypothesis is that treatment of peri-anal fistula with laser ablation is associated with equal closure rates compared to current therapies. As secundairy outcome, quality of life, postoperative pain and incontinence will be assessed. The primary…
The aim of this study is to investigate the amount of clinically relevant SRML (defined in this study as *5% muscle loss within one week measured by the cross sectional area (CSA) of the different muscles) in patients after major abdominal surgery…
Aim of the study is to develop an intraoperative technique for SLN mapping in colon cancer which is suitably in daily practice in colon surgery in an average hospital setting.
To assess PE rate and pouch characteristics in good and bad responders two years after LRYGB by MRI.
Primary objective:1. To investigate to what extent continuous vital sign monitoring can improve detection of adverse events in surgical ward patients as compared to current MEWS and nurse-worry assessmentSecondary objectives:2. To explore the…
