Survival after neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy and oesophagectomy versus definitive chemoradiotherapy for patients with oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma
ConclusionNeoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy and oesophagectomy is associated with better overall survival than dCRT in patients with stage II and III oesophageal SCC. (Source: British Journal of Surgery)

Sex differences in national rates of repair of emergency abdominal aortic aneurysm
ConclusionWomen who present as an emergency with an AAA are less likely to undergo repair than men. Although some of this can be explained by differences in age and co ‐morbidities, the differences persist after case‐mix adjustment. (Source: British Journal of Surgery)

Effect of preoperative biliary drainage on cholestasis ‐associated inflammatory and fibrotic gene signatures in perihilar cholangiocarcinoma
Preoperative biliary drainage (PBD) is used routinely in the evaluation of patients with potentially resectable perihilar cholangiocarcinoma to relieve cholestasis and improve the liver's resilience to surgery. Little preclinical or translatational data are, however, currently available to guide the use of PBD in this patient group. The effect of PBD on hepatic gene expression profiles was therefore studied by microarray analysis.Drainage affects inflammatory and fibrotic gene signatures (Source: British Journal of Surgery)

Systematic review of shared decision ‐making in surgery
ConclusionAt present, SDM in surgery is still in its infancy, although surgeons and patients both think of it favourably. Future studies should evaluate the effect of new interventions to improve SDM during surgical consultations, and its assessment using available standardized and validated metrics.

Cost ‐effectiveness of revascularization in patients with intermittent claudication
ConclusionThe costs associated with revascularization together with BMT in patients with intermittent claudication were about four times higher than those of BMT alone. The incremental cost ‐effectiveness ratio of revascularization was within the accepted threshold for public willingness to pay according to the Swedish National Guidelines, but exceeded that of the UK National Institute for Health and Care Excellence guidelines.
