Intrathoracic Robotic-Sewn Anastomosis During Ivor Lewis Esophagectomy for Cancer: Back to Basics?

BACKGROUND: To assess the feasibility, clinical utility, and safety of intrathoracic robotic-sewn esophageal anastomosis (IrEA) during Ivor Lewis esophagectomy for adenocarcinoma of the lower third of the esophagus, or cancer at the gastro-esophageal junction type I (Siewert classification).

Computer-Assisted Diagnosis of Lymph Node Metastases in Colorectal Cancers Using Transfer Learning With an Ensemble Model.

Screening of lymph node metastases in colorectal cancer (CRC) can be a cumbersome task, but it is amenable to artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted diagnostic solution. Here, we propose a deep learning-based workflow for the evaluation of CRC lymph node metastases from digitized hematoxylin and eosin-stained sections. A segmentation model was trained on 100 whole-slide images (WSIs). It achieved a...
