Very interesting… OPRA trial confirms what we have called for many years the SELECTIVE APPROACH in #organ #preservation! We use this approach in all our @greccar trials @jeremielefevre @DrGarciaAguilar @JoshSmithMDPhD @JGMAzevedo @TejedorPat @R_Perez_MD @escp_tweets @BJSurgery
Baseline MRI predictors of successful organ preservation in the Organ Preservation in Rectal Adenocarcinoma (OPRA) trial
➡️doi.org/10.1093/bjs/zn…
This secondary analysis of the OPRA trial demonstrated that baseline MRI features, including nodal status, extramural venous invasion, mesorectal fascia involvement, and tumour length, independently predict total mesorectal excision-free survival
Nodal status and mesorectal fascia involvement are associated with disease-free survival
