1 CTOS, Berlin 2014 The influence of time interval between preoperative radiation and surgical resection on the development of wound healing complications in extremity soft tissue sarcoma Anthony M. Griffin, MSc Colleen I. Dickie, MRT(T)(M.R.) Charles N. Catton, MD, FRCPC Peter W.M. Chung, MD, FRCPC Peter C. Ferguson, MD, FRCSC Jay S. Wunder, MD, FRCSC Brian O’Sullivan, MD, FRCPC

2 CTOS, Berlin 2014 Introduction Preop RT & extremity STS: smaller volume, lower dose, fewer late complications (fibrosis, fracture) Increased wound complications 1 30-45% in lower extremity 1 O’Sullivan, Lancet 2002; 359:2235

3 CTOS, Berlin 2014 Introduction Surgery usually 4-6 weeks post rads Cumulative effect of RT Timing of surgery after RT- influence outcome? But no empirical evidence for optimum time interval for minimizing WC.

4 CTOS, Berlin 2014 Purpose To determine if the time interval between completion of RT and surgery affects the development of wound complications in patients with extremity STS

5 CTOS, Berlin 2014 Methods Retrospective review of prospectively collected database Extremity STS Preoperative RT Chemotherapy excluded 1989-2013: 798 cases

6 CTOS, Berlin 2014 Methods Wound complications defined as: Secondary operations (debridement, flap, STSG) Invasive procedures for wound care (drainage of hematoma, seroma) Use of VAC Prolonged dressing changes, including packing of the wound for greater than six weeks from wound breakdown Readmission to hospital for wound care

7 CTOS, Berlin 2014 Methods Means compared with t-test Proportions compared with Chi-square test

8 CTOS, Berlin 2014 Results Mean age 56.1 (15-95) years 56% male (448); 44% female (350) 93% (743) primary presentations, 32 had metastases (2/55 with LR) 238 patients (30%) had prior unplanned excision Mean tumour size 8.8 cm (1-36 cm), Median 7.5 cm

26 CTOS, Berlin 2014 Discussion Interval between RT completion & surgery had minimal influence on development of wound complications Small numbers within 3 weeks (39 patients) Interval of 4 or 5 weeks showed equivalent complication rates- optimal interval?

27 CTOS, Berlin 2014 Discussion Trend towards significance for surgery after 6 weeks Acute toxicities during treatment lead to delay in surgery? No difference with use of flap closure
