Most patients undergoing spine surgery with pedicle screw instrumentation will experience insufficient pain relief in the first three days after surgery, whereafter postoperative pain can be managed with conventional, non-opioid analgesics in most…
The standard-of-care sentinel lymph node (SLN) procedure in paediatric cancer patients consists of a preoperative intradermal injection with 99mTechnetium-nanocolloid as radiotracer in combination with an intraoperative injection of blue dye for…
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of two distalisation techniques of a gastric bypass in revisional surgery with standardised limb lengths in total weight loss (TWL) and the need for treatment for protein calorie malnutrition (PCM…
To study the human adult cochlea, in specific it's RNA and protein expression patterns and morphology.
Comparison of hearing preservation and outcome of two fundamentally different cochlear implants designs (LW or PM) and the two most used surgical approaches (RW or CO). Secondly, asses the structure preservation (i.e., scalar position) of each…
The aim of this study is to investigate the safety and efficacy of CAL-WR as primary and curative colon-preserving treatment for T1 colon cancer. Our primary endpoint is reduction of oncologic resections for low-risk T1 colon cancer. As secondary…
To evaluate RRS with delayed RRO as an alternative for RRSO in BRCA1/2 gene germline mutation carriers. We hypothesize that RRS with delayed RRO leads to an equal ovarian cancer incidence when compared to RRSO.
This study will determine whether there is a difference in disease free survival for patients treated with either a 1cm excision margin or 2cm margin for clinical stage II (pT2b-pT4b) primary cutaneous melanoma (AJCC 8th edition, Table 1). The…
To determine whether KJD is non-inferior on patient reported effectiveness as compared to a KP (i.e. usual care) for relatively young patients with end-stage knee OA. For the substudy: the primary objective is to predict the benefit from knee…
The goal of this study is to investigate which treatment(-s) lead to the best outcome by using existing variation of practice.
The aim of this study is to reduce the need for colectomy and its* associated morbidity and mortality in patients with high-risk pT1 or low-risk pT2 colon carcinoma after endoscopic polypectomy by performing a (robot-assisted) laparoscopic wedge…
The primary objective of the pilot study is to assess the feasibility of a definitive trial to determine the effect of arthroscopic soft tissue stabilization vs. non-surgical treatment on rates of recurrent anterior …
Patient satisfaction after rotator cuff rupture is usually very high. Studies evaluating open and arthroscopic repairs for all different tear sizes have shown patient satisfaction rates of 87% to 100%. However, high satisfaction does not mean that…
The aim of this study is to describe the scar quality in a paediatric burn population treated with Glyaderm up to 12 months after surgery.
Does isolated cup revision surgery or liner exchange through the anterior approach result in increased functional status and higher patient satisfaction than through the posterolateral approach?
Primary Objective: To investigate the change of objectively measured physical activity over time, from preoperative, to being placed on the waiting list for cardiac surgery, to postoperative. Secondary Objective(s): To…
With this study we aim to describe the outcomes of two different surgical techniques, sawcuts vs convex/concave reamers.
The primary objective of the study is to determine whether ECIRS, the combined procedure of PCNL and URS, is superior in stone extraction when compared to PCNL. This will be determined by investigating the difference in percentage of stone free…
To demonstrate the feasibility of single session minimally invasive concurrent robotic liver resection and cone beam CT-guided percutaneous ablation of colorectal liver metastases in a hybrid operating room and evaluate its outcomes.
The INFINITE trail aims to successfully implement ICG-fluorescence for identifying the SLN by: 1) guiding the implementation process using the Effective Implementation of Change model developed by Grol and Wensing; 2) identifying and understanding…
