    Abstract Introduction Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) is an effective treatment for early-stage non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients who are either medically inoperable or who decline surgery. SBRT improves tumor control and overall survival (OS) in medically inoperable, early-stage, NSCLC patients. In this study, we investigated the effectiveness of two different SBRT doses commonly used and present our institutional experience.

    Abstract The incidence of esophageal cancer has been steadily increasing. The 5-year survival of esophageal cancer has minimally improved over the past 30 years. In this article, we review the management of esophageal cancer, focusing on the literature investigating the role of induction chemotherapy and radiation therapy.

    Abstract Background: The posterior mediastinum is the preferred location for reconstruction following esophagectomy. Occasionally alternative routes are required. We examined patient outcomes of esophageal reconstruction in order to determine whether substernal reconstruction (SR) is an equivalent alternative to orthotopic placement.
    Methods: Following IRB approval, we performed a retrospective review of all patients who underwent an esophagectomy from 1988-2014. Only patients reconstructed with a gastric conduit and cervical anastomosis by either substernal or posterior mediastinal (PM) routes were included in the study. Endpoints assessed included anastomotic leak rate, post-operative complications, reoperation, hospital length of stay, and 30- and 90-day mortality.
    Results: Thirty-three patients underwent SR and 182 had a PM gastric conduit with cervical anastomosis. The SR pathology was predominantly benign while PM was mostly malignant. Sixteen SR patients had a delayed reconstruction after prior diversion. Mean hospital LOS was longer in the SR group (P<0.001). There was no significant difference in 30- and 90-day mortality. PM patients had significantly fewer respiratory complications (P<0.04), reoperations (P<0.04), and transfusions (P<0.0001) and a trend towards fewer anastomotic leaks (17.1%
    Conclusions: This single institution experience demonstrated no significant difference in mortality between substernal and PM reconstruction following esophagectomy. However, SR was associated with significantly increased LOS and morbidity, including a trend toward increased anastomotic leaks. SR reconstruction should probably be considered an option of last resort.

    Abstract Objectives: Patients presenting with dysphagia can encounter a pathway to therapy and relief that is expensive and frustrating. High resolution impedance planimetry (HRIP) is a new mechanism for enhancing and possibly hastening that process. A balloon with integrated pressure sensors is utilized to measure luminal geometry and pressure by volume-controlled distention. Esophagogastric junction (EGJ) distensibility and body contractility are assessed at the time of other endoscopic procedures. Here we describe a single-center experience utilizing HRIP in the endoscopic evaluation of patients presenting with dysphagia.
    Methods: A prospectively maintained registry of patients undergoing impedance planimetry assessments at an academic medical center was queried for demographics, procedural details, and patient-reported outcomes.
    Results: Data was reviewed for 122 procedures performed by two providers. HRIP was performed in 63 (52%) patients for initial dysphagia assessment, 36 (30%) for follow-up assessment, and 20 (16%) as a procedural adjunct at the time of other planned procedures. HRIP contractile response was characterized as normal in 36%, absent in 32%, and diminished/disorganized in 14%. These results motivated clinical planning for surgical referral in 7 (5%) patients, 31 (26%) additional testing, and 82 (68%) continued medical management and follow-up.
    Discussion: HRIP is an emerging endoscopic modality which can streamline diagnostic work-up and therapeutic planning for patients with symptomatic dysphagia. Using functional esophageal assessment at the time of other diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, HRIP may expedite care and lead to improved patient satisfaction and clinical outcomes.

    Abstract Traumatic abdominal wall hernia (TAWH) from high speed mechanism is a unique finding in adult trauma, and exceedingly rare in pediatrics. The majority of reports are of low-speed "handlebar" hernias associated with direct injury by bicycle handlebars. We report a series of three pediatric patients in motor vehicle collisions (MVC) who experienced TAWH by lap-belt and associated intra-abdominal injuries necessitating immediate operative intervention. Different operative approaches were used in each case to manage the varying types of disruptions. This adds to the pediatric literature the largest series of its kind.
