Quick plug for UK surgical trainees... Chase Surgical sent me one of the bowel anastomosis kits that are used in his various courses. It is a very nice fabric kit that handles well, and unlike most others, actually includes a fixed mesentery, so it is both more realistic and

In patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer, extended lymphadenectomy did not improve disease-free or overall survival as compared with the standard procedure and was associated with higher morbidity and mortality. Full SWOG S1011 trial results: nej.md/4dBI8UN

One of the many sad things about Nick Triggle piece, which has been all over my timeline today, is that the “senior NHS source” and spokesperson won’t put their name to their comments. Cowards. Spineless cowards. Fundamentally, they are the wrong characters to lead the NHS.

This brought a big smile to my face. A work of art. Someone clearly takes great pride in their work at Cambridge University Hospitals NHS 👍🏻

My take homes: 1. Molecular testing of bladder cancer with ctDNA to determine treatment is coming 2. Galeas urine test for bladder cancer potentially game changing for diagnostics & surveillance 3. #Washout study will change Rx of emergency haematuria BAUS BURST Urology

These are great!
