    Abstract Background: Total colectomy with ileorectal anastomosis (TC/IRA) is one of the prophylactic surgical options in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). This study investigated the effectiveness of superior rectal artery (SRA) preservation during TC/IRA in reducing anastomotic leakage (AL).
    Methods: This retrospective study was based on prospectively collected data (01/2000 - 12/2022) at the National Cancer Institute, Milan, Italy. FAP patients undergoing TC/IRA were enrolled. A 1:1  propensity score matching (PSM) was performed. Associations between SRA preservation and complications were investigated using univariate and multivariate analysis.
    Results: The study population included 211 patients undergoing TC/IRA (Sex: 106 Male, 105 Female; Age: median 30 yrs, IQR: 20-48 yrs), 82 with SRA preservation (SRA group) and 129 without SRA preservation (controls). After PSM, 75 patients were considered for each group. SRA preservation was associated with fewer complications (OR 0.331, 95% CI 0.116; 0.942) in univariate logistic regression analysis. AL events were significantly fewer in the SRA group than in the control group (0 vs 12, p = 0.028). The SRA group had fewer overall surgical complication and pelvic sepsis rates (p = 0.020 and p = 0.028, respectively). Median operative time was significantly longer in the SRA group (340 min vs 240 min, p<0.001), and median hospital stay was significantly shorter (6 vs 7 days, p=0.017). Twenty-seven patients in the SRA group experienced intraoperative anastomotic bleeding, which was controlled endoscopically. Superimposable results were obtained analyzing the whole patient cohort.
    Conclusions: SRA preservation can be considered an advantage in this patient population, despite adding a further technical step during surgery and thereby prolonging the operative time. Intraoperative endoscopic checking of possible anastomotic bleeding sites is recommended.

    Abstract Introduction: Surveillance is the standard management in low-risk cN0 penile squamous cell carcinoma (peSCC) patients. However, no previous analysis focused on early and long-term outcomes of these patients. We report on main oncological outcomes of a large series of low-risk cN0 peSCC patients.
    Patients and methods: Between 1980 and 2017 included, 93 evaluable consecutive low-risk (ie, pT1a G1 cN0M0) peSCC patients underwent primary tumor surgery and either observation (74) or dynamic sentinel node biopsy (DSNB) (19) following a clinical diagnosis of T1 in 66 (71%), T2 in 15 (16.1%) and Tx in 12 (12.9%) patients, respectively. The statistical significance of differences in medians and proportions was tested with the Kruskal-Wallis and chi-square tests. Kaplan-Meier plots illustrated 5-year inguinal relapse (IR)-free survival rates.
    Results: Median age was 60 years (IQR: 50-69 years). Median follow-up was 92 months (IQR 54-133 months). Surveillance was more frequently adopted in clinical (c)T1 than in cT2 tumors (79.7% vs. 36.8%). None of 19 patients who had DSNB had nodal metastasis. Overall, 7 (7.5%) out of 93 pT1aG1cN0 peSCC patients had IR after a median interval of 9 months. Of note, 1 patient only relapsed after 12 months of surveillance. After stratification according to IR, relapses occurred more frequently in younger patients (59 vs. 64 years, P < .001). The 5-year IR-free survival rates for the entire cohort was 92% (95% Confidence interval [CI] 87-98%).
    Conclusions: Observation is a safe and effective management for low-risk peSCC patients. Younger patients may be offered a mini-invasive staging as an alternative.

    Abstract Beckwith-Wiedemann Syndrome (BWS) is a pediatric overgrowth disorder involving a predisposition to embryonal tumors. Most of the tumors associated with BWS occur in the first 8-10 years of life, and the most common is Wilms tumor (WT). BWS clinical heterogeneity includes subtle overgrowth features or even silent phenotypes, and WT may be the presenting symptom of BWS. WT in BWS individuals exhibit distinct characteristics from those of sporadic WT, and the management of these patients needs a peculiar approach. The most important feature is a higher risk of developing bilateral disease at some time in the course of the illness (synchronous bilateral disease at diagnosis or metachronous recurrence after initial presentation with unilateral disease). Accordingly, neoadjuvant chemotherapy is the recommended approach also for BWS patients with unilateral WT to facilitate nephron-sparing surgical approaches. This review emphasizes the importance of early BWS recognition, particularly if a WT has already occurred, as this will result in an urgent consideration of first-line cancer therapy.

    Abstract This paper retrospectively investigated the site and the detection method of relapses in children and adolescents with malignant germ cell tumors enrolled in the TCGM-AIEOP-2004 Study and subsequently developed a relapse, in order to evaluate a possible reduction in radiological exposure during follow-up. Including all malignant cases, serum tumor markers identified a relapse in more than 70% and, according to the selection criteria published by Children Oncology Group in 2018, in more than 90% of cases. These results confirm the importance of serum tumor markers as a relapse detection method, with possible reduction of radiology exams in specific subgroups.

    Abstract Surgery is one of the cornerstones of Wilms tumor treatment. In this article, we present technical advancements that are finding their way into the armamentarium of pediatric cancer surgeons. We discuss the current approaches, challenges, opportunities, and future directions of minimally invasive surgery (laparoscopic and robotics), image-guided surgery, and fluorescence-guided surgery. Furthermore, we discuss the use of intraoperative ultrasonography, as well as the use of new techniques to improve the quality of lymph node sampling.

    Abstract Introduction: Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is a hereditary autosomal dominant disorder characterized by the development of multiple adenomas in the colon and rectum with a lifetime risk of 80%-100% to develop colorectal cancer if undetected or untreated. Gardner-associated fibroma (GAF) is a rare, benign soft tissue lesion with uncertain pathogenesis. GAF is generally associated with FAP in its clinical variant, called Gardner syndrome (GS).
    Case description: A 16-year-old boy with no comorbidities and no significant medical history was referred to the Unit of Hereditary Digestive Tract Tumours, Department of Surgery, Fondazione IRCCS Istituto Nazionale dei Tumori, Milan, Italy, for genetic counselling after surgical removal of a right anterior cervical paramedian fibroma. The histopathology on the specimen led to the diagnosis of GAF. He had no family history for colorectal cancer or gastrointestinal polyposis and denied any gastrointestinal symptoms. Physical examination showed a small frontal osteoma and colonoscopy showed the presence of multiple small sessile polyps (>100 polyps, diameter <5 mm) diffusely present on the large bowel. Genetic testing revealed a pathogenic germline variant in the
    Conclusions: GAF may represent a sentinel sign of FAP, preceding gastrointestinal symptoms and endoscopic findings. A careful multidisciplinary approach is determinant for correct and early diagnosis of FAP.

    Abstract Introduction: To evaluate the role of unilateral inguinal lymph-node dissection (ILND) plus contralateral dynamic sentinel node biopsy (DSNB) vs. bilateral ILND in clinical N1 (cN1) penile squamous cell carcinoma (peSCC) patients.
    Material and methods: Within our institutional database (1980-2020, included), we identified 61 consecutive cT1-4 cN1 cM0 patients with histological confirmed peSCC who underwent either unilateral ILND plus DSNB (26) or bilateral ILND (35).
    Results: Median age was 54 years (Interquartile range [IQR]: 48-60 years). Median follow-up was 68 months (IQR 21-105 months). Most patients had pT1 (23 %) or pT2 (54.1%), as well as G2 (47.5%) or G3 (23%) tumors, while lymphovascular invasion (LVI) was present in 67.1% of cases. Considering a cN1 and a cN0 groin, overall 57 out of 61 patients (93.5%) had nodal disease in the cN1 groin. Conversely, only 14 out of 61 patients (22.9%) had nodal disease in the cN0 groin. 5-year IR-free survival was 91% (Confidence interval [CI] 80%-100%) for bilateral ILND group and 88% (CI 73%-100%) for the ipsilateral ILND plus DSNB group (P-value 0.8). Conversely, 5-year CSS was 76% (CI 62%-92%) for bilateral ILND group and 78% (CI 63%-97%) for the ipsilateral ILND plus contralateral DSNB group (P-value 0.9).
    Conclusions: In patients with cN1 peSCC the risk of occult contralateral nodal disease is comparable to cN0 high risk peSCC and the gold standard, namely bilateral ILND, may be replaced by unilateral ILND and contralateral DSNB without affecting positive node detection, IRRs and CSS.
