SELNET

sarcoma.surgery

The SSN has committed to provide education and teaching on a broad level. Our teaching activities are summarized on www.sarcoma.academy.

The University of Luzern with its Faculty of Health Sciences & Medicine is our education hub. The following degrees can be obtained for both national and international graduates. More information.

MS Medical Sciences & Medicine

The Joint Medical Master Program offers a collection of topics to choose from. Alternatively, you contact directly one of the professors or or the SSN to define a topic of interest. More information.

MD

Study Programmes Medical doctor.

PhD in Health Sciences

Study Programmes PhD in Health Sciences.

This program is designed over a minimal period of 3-4 years, maximally 6 years. 18 ECTS credits are required. The thesis represents a cumulation of consecutive scientific reports. More information.

Please feel free to obtain more information on sarcoma health service research opportunities or contact us directly under office@sarcoma.surgery.

Clinical research

The SSN clinical research bases on the philosophy of transparent assessment and sharing of data in the registry.

The SSN registry is based on the most widely used registries worldwide such as the French registry, the Toronto PMH sarcoma database, TARPSWG registry, the SELNET registry as well as the NSQIP Pediatric sarcoma analysis. This allows data sharing on an international level, providing a large amount of data to address key questions.

One focus is the definition, development and assessment of quality indicators (QI) of sarcoma patient care. Together with the International Board of the SSN, currently 72 QIs were defined - which are continuously being updated - and assessed through the registry. Its data is visualized on an interactive website. As such, benchmarking will be possible for international comparison.

Because the interdisciplinary SSN registry combines the data assessment for each discipline separately, it allows the comparison of each single parameter among the disciplines, with registering the basic data only once and thereby allowing a transdisciplinary outcome analysis.

The SSN is committed to invest into translational and basic research through international collaboration.

The SSN established a collaboration with SELNET (Sarcoma European and Latin American Network). Within the European Horizon2020 Call, SELNET implemented a sarcoma biobank, translational research projects, preclinical sarcoma models as well as translational studies.

The SwissSarcomaNetwork has a strong commitment to conduct and support clinical trials. Currently, it mainly collaborates with SELNET.

SELNET, specifically under the auspices of the Spanish (GEIS), French and Italian sarcoma networks, have a longstanding history of very successful clinical trials. Currently, SELNET establishes the following clinical trials regarding perioperative therapy on

• breast sarcoma
• angiosarcoma
• uterine sarcoma
• extraskeletal mesenchymal chondrosarcoma

• Reconstruction of the flexor compartment after soft tissue sarcoma resection of the proximal forearm
• Complete anterior pubic hemipelvectomy does not require reconstruction
• Giant pendulum wdls through sciatic notch: transient iliac osteotomy for complete tumor resection
• Toxic megacolon with perforation as a severe complication after sacro-iliac hemipelvectomy
• Osteotomy through the sacral ala: the advantage of using a 3d-printed resection guide
• Is total humerus prosthetic reconstruction safe in a patient with pathological fracture from dedifferentiated chondrosarcoma?
• Extra-articular PAO resection en-bloc with the proximal femur and reconstruction with a pelvis tumor-prosthesis
• Low demand hanging bridge reconstruction after Tikhoff-Linberg shoulder resection
• High demand 3d-printed custom made shoulder prosthesis reconstruction after Tikhoff-Linberg resection
• Excessive white drainage after cerament filling and curettage of an aneurysmal bone cyst at the distal radius
• Aggressive juxtacortical chondromyxoid fibroma of the proximal thigh requiring complete proximal femoral resection
• Complete resection of the obturator internus muscle through antero-inferior pelvic exposure
• Extended forequarter resection including the chest wall and lung with brachial free fillet flap coverage
