Autologous Muscle Fiber Fragment Injections
To regenerate functional anal sphincter muscle using muscle fiber fragments that contain muscle precursor cells (MPCs)
Evaluation of the Efficacy and Safety of Autologous Fat Injection Into the Intersphincter Space in Fecal Incontinence: a Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Cross-over, Double-blind Trial
Fecal incontinence is frequent and has a significant impact on the quality of life of individuals. Its therapeutic management is based primarily on transit regulation and rehabilitation and secondarily on neuromodulation of the sacral roots. However, this strategy is insufficient in more than one patient out of three. The patient …
Addressing Disparities in Colorectal Cancer Screening in Black and Underserved Phoenix Communities
This clinical trial studies disparities involving colorectal cancer prevention and screening in Black and underserved communities in the Phoenix metropolitan area. The Black community is disproportionately impacted by colorectal cancer, with the highest rate of any racial/ethnic group in the United States. There are complex reasons behind these disparities, largely …
Treatment of Fecal Incontinence and Functional Evacuation Disorders Using Non-instrumental Biofeedback
Background. Rehabilitation and re-education using instrumental anorectal biofeedback are the main treatment of anorectal functional disorders producing incontinence and outlet obstructed defecation. These treatments imply intubation of patient and several sessions of treatment leading to high consumption of resources and costs. Hypothesis. A cognitive intervention based on original audiovisual programs …
Organ Preservation in Rectal AdenoCa Using Hypofractionated Pelvic RT(Hypo-OPRA)
The combination of preoperative pelvic RT - either long-course chemoradiotherapy (LCCRT) or short-course radiotherapy (SCRT)- followed by surgery has been the standard of care in the curative treatment of locally advanced adenocarcinoma of the rectum for decades. Some patients however achieve a complete clinical response (cCR) to their preoperative treatment …
Patient-led Follow-up from Home After Surgery for Colorectal Carcinoma
The primary goal of the patient-led follow-up from home, is the improvement of quality of life and the reduction of stress in patients, while obtaining a more complete picture of their health status. A series of assessments are performed in the home setting: Blood withdrawal for CEA determination Quality of …
Mechanisms of Improving Fecal Continence Muscles Motor Function
The investigators hypothesize that different continence muscles have different fatigue characteristics and fatigue induced by resisted contractions will result in significant increase in contractility of the continence muscles and improvement of fecal incontinence severity.
Evaluation of SINGLE PORT (SP) Robotic Technology in Colorectal Surgery
Currently a multiport robotic surgery platform (Intuitive Xi) is widely available and used for colorectal surgery indications. A Single port platform (Intuitive SP) is FDA approved for Head and Neck and Urology but has not been widely used in colorectal surgery. This study seeks to evaluate the safe and effective …
Trial to Evaluate Fecobionics in Fecal Incontinence (FI) (NORMAL and ABNORMAL-FI)
The objective is to determine the length-tension properties of the anal sphincters using Fecobionics in normal subjects and FI patients during anal distension and during simulated evacuation. Fecobionics has the consistency and shape of normal stool and can record pressures, cross-sectional area, orientation and viscoelastic properties of the anorectum and …
Clinical Research on the Treatment Model of Ambulatory Surgery for Colorectal Cancer
To investigate the postoperative complication incidence and long-term efficacy between ambulatory surgery for colorectal cancer and traditional laparoscopic colorectal surgery in patients with colorectal tumor who are generally in good health and have sufficient organ functions。
