Variables previously deemed as predictive factors for IPR facility discharge in the literature and components of RAPT were assessed utilising multivariable generalised linear model analysis.Results: Of the 733 total hip arthroplasty (THA) and 776 total knee arthroplasty (TKA) patients included, 46% of THA and 64% of TKA subjects transferred to IPR post-acutely. Bilateral procedure (OR 7.91, p < 0.001), living alone (OR 5.23, p < 0.001), older age groups (66-75 (OR 2.14, p = 0.001)); (> 75 (OR 5.02, p < 0.001)), poorer walking distance (1-2 blocks (OR 1.64, p = 0.023)); (housebound (OR 2.68, p = 0.009)), were significant predictors of IPR following THA. In the TKA cohort, the significant predictors of IPR discharge were female (OR 2.47, p < 0.001), older age (66-75 (OR 1.73, p = 0.021)); (> 75 (OR 4.23, p < 0.001)), bilateral procedure (OR 6.86, p < 0.001), obesity (OR 1.76, p = 0.006), living alone (OR 2.86, p = 0.001) and surgeon (surgeon 3 (OR 2.30, p = 0.024)); (surgeon 4 (OR 3.04, p = 0.003)); (surgeon 5 (OR 2.18, p = 0.046)).Conclusion: The use of IPR following TJA was associated with some clinically justifiable factors, such as bilateral procedure, older age, and living alone.

A double stapled intracorporeal anastomosis compared to a single-stapled technique could reduce operative time and increase uptake of this beneficial technique. However, the patency and calibre of this anastomosis require laboratory assessment.Objective: The aim of the study was to assess and compare the luminal diameter and patency of the double-stapled (intracorporeal type) anastomosis (DICA) with a single-stapled (intracorporeal type) anastomosis (SICA) and a double-stapled (extra-corporeal type) anastomosis (ECA).Methods: Experimental laboratory-based study using fresh bovine intestine. Construction and assessment of two of each of the following anastomotic types: DICA, SICA, and ECA. The primary outcome measure was the luminal diameter of the anastomosis, comparing the ratios of the narrowest point of the anastomosis to the narrowest luminal diameter. Secondary outcome tests were leak and patency testing for each anastomosis.Results: All six anastomoses were found to be patent and without any anastomotic leakage. The ratio of narrowest anastomotic diameter to narrowest luminal diameter for all three anastomoses was comparable (extracorporeal anastomosis 1.16, single-stapled intracorporeal anastomosis 1.0 and double-stapled intracorporeal anastomosis 0.97).Conclusion: This study confirms the in vitro patency and the adequacy of luminal diameter of the double stapled (intracorporeal type) anastomosis.","PeriodicalId":8158,"journal":{"name":"ANZ Journal of Surgery","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143969307","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two courses were developed, incorporating pre-tests, lessons, real case presentations with MRI scans, and discussions using 3D-printed models. Pre- and post-course test scores were analyzed to evaluate learning outcomes.Results: Participants demonstrated significant improvement in post-test scores compared to pre-test scores, highlighting the educational impact of 3D models. Course satisfaction surveys revealed high satisfaction, with most participants likely to recommend the course.Conclusions: 3D-IPR and 3D-printed models hold promise as effective tools for teaching complex pCD anatomy, enhancing surgical education, and improving understanding of 3D structures.

Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) and carotid artery stenting (CAS) are the main procedural treatment options. This study investigates the changing trends in carotid revascularisation in Australia over the last 30 years.Methods: Two population level datasets were used, the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW) and Medicare Australia. Patients who had either CEA or CAS procedures between 1993 and 2024 were identified, and procedural trends were analyzed over a 30-year period.Results: Data from AIHW was available from 2000 to 2021, over which 66 983 patients underwent carotid revascularisation (58 932 CEA and 8051 CAS). There was a 47.4% relative decrease in the absolute number of CEA procedures over the study period (3702-1948). There was a relative 23.1% increase in CAS procedures over this period (524-645). Data from the Medicare dataset was available from 1993 until 2024, over which 41 860 patients had carotid revascularisation (38 118 CEA and 3742 CAS). There was a relative 51.0% decrease in the absolute number of CEA procedures (1733-849). There was a 1.6% relative decrease in the absolute number of CAS procedures over the study period (187-184).Conclusion: The number of carotid revascularisation procedures performed has steadily decreased over the last 30 years. CEA procedures have declined to a greater extent compared to CAS procedures, though CEA procedures remain significantly more common. These trends likely reflect evolving medical therapy for carotid artery disease.","PeriodicalId":8158,"journal":{"name":"ANZ Journal of Surgery","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143952650","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As this is a new method for surgical trainees, a qualitative study was performed to evaluate its implementation and use by exploring the pioneer trainees' perceptions and experiences of EPAs.Methods: Seven first-year general surgery trainees were recruited to participate in semi-structured interviews. The interviews explored the trainees' experiences of EPAs, their perceptions of the effect on their independence with completing clinical activities and patient safety, and their suggestions for how to improve this form of assessment in the training program.Results: The findings of the study suggest that EPAs can be a useful tool for assessing the competence of trainees. However, the study also found that EPAs can be challenging for trainees, particularly in terms of the level of self-regulation and independence required.Conclusion: Although EPAs may positively contribute to a trainee's experience, considerations to support trainees and trainers in their practical implementation may increase the value of the learning encounter. Graded assessment of entrustment and explicit year-level milestone progress points could promote more effective learning and support developmental feedback by trainers.","PeriodicalId":8158,"journal":{"name":"ANZ Journal of Surgery","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143953863","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We wished to analyse this survival based on global region of birth, controlling for cancer-specific and other causes of death.Methods: A database of resected colorectal cancers from 2010 to 2016 (n = 1596) was grouped according to patient global region of birth. Chi-squared testing was used to compare factors including patient demographics and AJCC stage. Kaplan-Meier and competing-risk analysis were used to compare 5-year survival outcomes between patients born in different regions, and regression analysis was used to control for age.Results: 751 (47.1%) patients were born overseas. 385 (24.1%) originated from Europe, 124 (7.8%) from East and SE Asia, 92 (5.8%) from the Middle East, and the remainder from other global regions. Immigrants from East or SE Asia were more likely to present with node-positive disease (p = 0.048) than those born in Australia. Immigrants from East and SE Asia and the Middle East had significantly better all-cause 5-year survival than patients born in Australia (73.4% and 80.4% vs. 60.4%, p < 0.0001). Immigrants from the Middle East retained their cancer-specific survival advantage after competing risk analysis (HR 0.76, p = 0.027). Immigrants from Europe displayed no significant difference in all-cause or disease-specific survival compared to individuals born in Australia.Conclusion: Patients born in the Middle East appear to have a colorectal cancer-specific survival advantage compared to those born in Australia, unrelated to stage at presentation. This has significant implications for prognosis and future research directions.","PeriodicalId":8158,"journal":{"name":"ANZ Journal of Surgery","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143962405","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

No long-term Australian data is available on patient-reported outcomes. We hypothesised that pilon fracture long-term outcomes are inferior to Australian population norms.Methods: A 14-year retrospective study was conducted in a Level-1 trauma centre on AO/OTA type-B/C fractures. Type-A fractures, skeletally immature, interpreter requirement and primary amputation were excluded. Demographics, injury characteristics, management and complications were collected. The primary outcome was SF-36 with adjusted Australian norms.Results: From 127 eligible patients, 73 were included in the study (age: 46 ± 17 years; 50 [69%] males) with 8.7 ± 3.9 years follow-up. Management included ORIF 46 (61%), external fixation (EF) with staged ORIF 17 (23%), definitive EF 4 (5%) and 8 (11%) non-operative. Further surgical intervention was required in 25 (34%) patients, with the majority for hardware removal (14 [19%]). Compared with Australian SF-36 norms, the mean Physical Component Score was lower (44.7 ± 8.9 vs. 50.3, p ≤ 0.001) whereas the Mental Component Score (51.2 ± 12.5 vs. 51.2, p = 0.24) was not. Median return to work was 4.5 months (IQR 5), with 47 (87%) of the 54 employed pre-injury working at 12 months. Two (3.7%) patients did not return to work and 24 (44%) returned at a reduced capacity.Conclusion: This study provides a contemporary reference for pilon fractures managed in Australia.
