Detailed Summary:
Sponsor: Sahlgrenska University Hospital, Sweden
Current Primary Outcome: Recurrence rate [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
Original Primary Outcome: Same as current
Current Secondary Outcome:
- Mortality [ Time Frame: 6 months ]The proportion deceased at a given time during the 6 month follow up.
- Complications related to the surgery [ Time Frame: 6 months ]Complications will be assessed using the Landriel Ibanez classification modelThis model grades complications in 4 grades (Grade 1: no invasive treatment required; Grade 2: invasive treatment required, but not intensive care; Grade 3: invasive treatment required and intensive care; Grade 4: death).
- Health related quality of life [ Time Frame: 6 months ]A standardised instrument, EuroQoL 5D-3L, will be used as a generic measure of health related quality of life. The questionnaire contains 5 questions in different domains.
