Excited to see publication of the great work by our @MDAndersonNews #OncSurgery #T32 fellow @NManisundaram from @BCM_Surgery highlighting this new @AmColSurgCancer #RCRS quality measure for #RectalCancer treatment and need for improvement in reporting it.

Although circumferential resection margin (CRM) positivity reporting has improved over past decade, ¼ of Commission on Cancer facilities have missingness rates >16%. CRM missingness was associated with missingness in other pathologic measures. ja.ma/3t4mrvd

Don’t forget about a proper omental flap. Particularly when based on right gastroepiploic and including all the omentum to the diaphragm, can get great space filling, lymphatic drainage, and avoid morbidity of gluteal or rectus flaps! Does not require high BMI!

@TAMISYoda @DCRjournal APER will never be morbidity free and post RT 1/3 have delayed healing which patients hate (RCT data). So, if radiated then always. Gluteal is easier and doesn’t sacrifice the remaining rectus. No free lunch anywhere here! @DrGarciaAguilar @juliomayol @ColonCancerDoc @cmf2x
