Abstract Purpose The aim of this retrospective observational study of one cohort was to evaluate the long-term outcome in patients younger than 60 years after total hip arthroplasty using a straight uncemented stem and an uncemented threaded cup. Methods Between 1986 and 1987, 75 hips of 75 patients (mean age, 53.35 ± 6.17 years) were consecutively implanted with an Alloclassic Zweymüller/Alloclassic SL stem and an Alloclassic CSF cup. Forty-four patients had died over the last 30 years. The remaining 31 patients (mean age, 82.9 ± 6.4 years) were reinvited for follow-up examinations. Clinical and radiographic evaluations were carried out. Results At a mean follow-up of 29.5 (28.8–30.2), 4 patients (5.3%) were lost to follow-up. For the endpoint aseptic loosening (defined as the removal of stem or the cup for 2 cases), the overall survival rate is 97.3%. For the endpoint revision for any reason (22 patients), the survival rate is 70.6%. Eleven patients needed an exchange of head and liner, caused by wear. The average time from implantation until change of head and liner was 21.44 years (SD 5.92). Other reasons for revision surgery were septic loosening (3 cases), aseptic loosening of stem and cup (1 case), aseptic loosening of stem (1 case), periprosthetic calcification (2 cases), implant fracture (1 case), periprosthetic fracture (1 case), intraoperative fissure of stem (1 case), and total wear of liner including cup (1 case). Conclusion The combination of a straight stem (Alloclassic) and a screw cup (CSF) shows excellent results in young patients under the age of 60 at ultra-long-term follow-up at 30 years. Revisions due to wear of the polyethylene liner are more likely than in the older patients.

86 Background: The number of reports investigating the impact of postoperative complications on long-term outcome following curative gastrectomy is limited and still remains unclear. The aim of this study is to clarify the effect of postoperative intra-abdominal infectious complications on overall survival (OS) and relapse-free survival (RFS) following curative gastrectomy. Methods: Three hundred and sixty-seven patients pts who underwent curative gastrectomy for gastric cancer between June 2003 and December 2004 at Shizuoka Cancer Center were included. Clinicopathological features and effects of postoperative intra-abdominal infectious complications on OS and RFS were investigated. In this study, postoperative intra-abdominal infectious complications were defined as Clavien-Dindo grade II or more severe pancreas fistula, anastomotic leak, or intra-abdominal abscess. Results: Median age was 63 years, male-female ratio was 2:1. Pathological stage was Stage I; 225 patients, stage II; 72 patients, stage III; 64 patients, and stage IV; 6 patients. Median observation periods of survivors were 71 months. Of 367 patients, 32 patients (8.7%) had intra-abdominal infectious complications. Overall 5-year survival rate was significantly better in patients without complications than in those with complications (86.1 vs 67.9%, P<0.001). The same trend was observed even after stratification by pathological stage (Stage II; 76.9 vs 66.7%, P=0.254, Stage III; 62.1 vs 40.9%, P=0.218) although each difference was not statistically significant. Relapse free 5-year survival rate was significantly better in patient without complications (85.0 vs 64.9%, P=0.002), and the same trend was also observed after stratification by pathological stage. Conclusions: Postoperative intra-abdominal infectious complications adversely affect overall and relapse free survival of patients following curative gastrectomy. Reduced incidence of infectious complications may be beneficial to improve long-term outcome of patients with gastric cancer.

Studies assessing the long-term outcome after heart transplantation HTX in patients with cardiomyopathy (CM) in the paediatric age range are rare. The aim of this study was to determine the survival rate of children with CM undergoing HTX and to analyse how aetiology of cardiomyopathy influenced morbidity and mortality. We retrospectively analysed the medical records of children; who were transplanted in our centre between June 1988 and October 2019. 236 heart transplantations were performed since 1988 (9 re-transplants). 98 of 227 patients (43.2%) were transplanted because of CM. Survival rates were 93% after 1; 84% after 10 and 75% after 30 years. Overall; the aetiology of CM could be clearly identified in 37 subjects (37.7%). This rate increased up to 66.6% (12/19) by applying a comprehensive diagnostic workup since 2016. The survival rate was lower (p < 0.05) and neurocognitive deficits were more frequent (p = 0.001) in subjects with systemic diseases than in individuals with cardiac-specific conditions. These data indicate that the long-term survival rate of children with CM after HTX in experienced centers is high. A comprehensive diagnostic workup allows unraveling the basic defect in the majority of patients with CM undergoing HTX. Aetiology of CM affects morbidity and mortality in subjects necessitating HTX.

Abstract   Resent advances in endoscopic resection (ER) provide us increasing chances for resecting esophageal SCC with muscularis mucosae (MM) and submucosal (SM) invasion. We perform additional therapy such as chemoradiotherapy (CRT) or esophagectomy considering the risk of metastasis and patient’s condition. However, there is only a few reports about long-term outcome after ER for such cases. Methods We retrospectively studied 188 case of esophageal SCC with pathological MM invasion resected by ER (161 cases) and SM1(27 cases) from 2005 to 2016 in Cancer Institute Hospital. We recommended CRT or esophagectomy as additional treatment for the cases which had lymphovascular invasion (LVI) or DI (droplet infiltration) considering patients’ conditions. Median observation period of them were 71 months. Results The SM1 cases had significantly higher rate of LVI than the MM cases. Of 161 MM cases, 2 cases had recurrence, however, they are alive after CRT or CRT following esophagectomy. Of 27 SM1 cases, 3 cases had LN recurrence, underwent RT or CRT or CRT following esophagectomy, one case died of esophageal SCC and the others survive. The rate of metastatic cases was higher in SM1 than that in MM. Overall survival rate in 5 years were 89.8% in MM and 81.8% in SM1. Cause specific survival rate in 5 years were 100% in both MM and SM1. Conclusion The long-term outcomes of ER for MM/SM1 invasive esophageal SCC was good with appropriate additional therapy which we should perform in high risk cases for LN metastasis considering patients’ condition.
