How can people access testing, and what support and surveillance can be offered? Diagnosing pelvic inflammatory disease: a challenge in general practice. We consider how we can approach making a diagnosis of pelvic inflammatory disease in general practice. This is important because it has significant sequelae, including subfertility and chronic pelvic pain. Listen as soon as you can to ensure you have full access to all the free resources. And hear a best intentions story that suggests there might be problems developing ‘down below'!Lynch syndrome: what does it mean for general practice?  Molecular testing strategies for Lynch syndrome in people with colorectal cancer (NICE DG27, 2017). NICE guidance on testing for Lynch syndrome in colorectal cancer (NICE NG151, 2020) NHS England: Implementing Lynch syndrome testing and surveillance pathways handbook v.1.2. Guidelines for the management of hereditary colorectal cancer from the British Society of Gastroenterology (BSG)/Association of Coloproctology of Great Britain and Ireland (ACPGBI)/United Kingdom Cancer Genetics Group (UKCGG) The Royal Marsden: A beginner's guide to Lynch syndrome Diagnosing pelvic inflammatory disease: a challenge in general practice  BASHH guidelines on the diagnosis and management of PID (UK national guideline for the management of pelvic inflammatory disease, 2018 – updated 2019) Video byte: Send us your feedback podcast@redwhale.co.uk or send a voice message Sign up to receive Pearls here.

Doctors Lisa and Sara talk to Dr Sarah Taylor about the changes being made to how Primary Care Clinicians refer patients for Suspected Lower Gastrointestinal Cancers. These changes are discussed in the context of referring in the Greater Manchester area, but you can view the  joint guideline from the Association of Coloproctology of Great Britain and Ireland (ACPGBI) and the British Society of Gastroenterology below.  This will change the way we manage patients. To help, we go through some potential cases. Good tips for how to mitigate potential risks with the changes included. We hope you find this useful.

Every Australian aged 50 or over will receive regular bowel screening kits to test for cancer and other complications, but there are now calls to make these tests available to younger people, as it turns out this isn't a condition that only affects older generations. A growing number of women especially - including those in their 20's and 30's - are developing bowel cancer, but often don't realise until it is too late as we still wrongly think of this as an 'older person's disease'. The Quicky speaks to two women who were diagnosed with bowel cancer in their 30's and 40's, and a specialist surgeon to find out who is at risk of bowel cancer, what symptoms to look out for, and why it seems to be increasingly common.

Association of Coloproctology of Great Britain and Ireland Annual Conference 2019 @ Dublin, Ireland.  Dr. Steele and Shreya cohost live from Dublin. Great recap and highlights from Day 1, interviews with world experts, lecture by Dr. Mike Solomon, and innovations and research talks with trainees.  Enjoy!

Professor Steve Brown, Chief Investigator of the HubBLe trial, talks about treatment choices for patients with haemorrhoids and the evidence behind those choices. This podcast links to the Techniques in Coloproctology article here https://bit.ly/2Uh7Fed

In this podcast Giuseppe Gagliardi, Co-Editor-in Chief of Techniques in Coloproctology, interviews Nicola Fernhead and Jacopo Martellucci on the definition and treatment of low anterior resection syndrome. 2 patients with the syndrome are also interviewed. In this conversation patients and experts share their tips and insights. Some of the discussion is based on a recent article published on the journal "Role of transanal irrigation in the treatment of anterior resection syndrome" which you can view on this link https://rdcu.be/bbn0i

Recorded at the International Conference of Anal Fistula Treatment in Rome 2018, Techniques in Coloproctology interview Phil Tozer, a consultant at the world famous St Mark's Hospital, UK about current treatments for anal fistula. Phil takes us through why not to place a seton in the acute setting, the 5 factors preventing healing of fistulas, and the pros and cons of the whole range of fistula treatment including plugs, fibrin glue, permacol, LIFT, the place of sphincter repair, restoring the contour of the anus, VAAFT (including "palliative VAAFT and delta VAAFT"), FiLAC and finally the promise of stem cells in fistula. Essential listening for anyone who treats anal fistula.

Techniques in Coloproctology talks to Ruediger Prosst, pioneer of the over the scope clip (OTSC) treatment for anal fistula. Learn about which type of fistula to treat with OTSC, technical tips, outcomes and a look to the future for this promising sphincter-sparing technique Recorded at the International Conference on Anal Fistula in Rome 2018

Techniques in Coloproctology talks to Damián Garcia-Olmo, pioneer of stem cell treatment for anal fistula, about the latest developments in this cutting-edge treatment. Professor Garcia-Olmo discusses how the stem cell treatment works, its different indications and successes in Crohn's disease and cryptoglandular fistula, use in anorecto-vaginal fistula, using stem cells and fibrin glue together, compares autologous and allogeneic stem cells and the use of near-patient stem cell kits. He then looks into the future and his aspiration that stem cells replace surgery in fistulas in Crohn's disease. This was recorded at the International Conference on Anal Fistula in Rome 2018, which you can hear going on loudly in the background!

Techniques in Coloproctology talks to Arne Wilhelm, pioneer of laser treatment for anal fistula (FiLaC) about the latest developments in this interesting approach, including the amount of energy to use, what to do with the internal opening and future combinations with other new techniques.

Essential listening for trainees and experienced colorectal surgeons. Dr Herand Abcarian, Professor of Colorectal Surgery at the Universty of Illinois, USA, and leader in fistula surgery gives a "how I do it" lesson on sphincter saving surgery for fistula, as well as choosing the novel Over The Scope Clip (OTSC) technique as the treatment he'd have for himself. Find out why by listening to the podcast with Giuseppe Gagliardi, Co-Editor in Chief of Techniques in Coloproctology. The OTSC paper can be found at http://bit.ly/2FMoYzS (Short-term outcomes of a novel endoscopic clipping device for closure of the internal opening in 100 anorectal fistulas)

Rick Nelson knows more about anal fissure than almost anyone in the world and has recently published a comprehensive meta-analysis of the evidence supporting treatment for anal fissure in the leading journal, Techniques in Coloproctology. There are some surprises that will challenge what you think you know about efficacy of topical treatments, anal stretch, and the much lower than previously thought incidence of impairment of continence after sphincterotomy. Invaluable listening for updating knowledge or revising for an exam. You can read the full paper at http://bit.ly/2yeyCEZ A systematic review and meta-analysis of the treatment of anal fissure.

For decades the only real option for perforated diverticular disease was a Hartmann's procedure, but there has been a lot of interest in the less invasive and stoma saving laparoscopic lavage and drainage procedure as an alternative. But is it effective? In this podcast linked to a meta analysis by Cirocchi et al in Techniques in Coloproctology (2017) 21: 93 (http://bit.ly/2peBO1J) Jon Lund talks to David Humes about the background and the evidence for and against peritoneal lavage as a treatment for this common colorectal emergency. David Humes is Associate Professor of Surgery at the University of Nottingham, UK and an NIHR Postdoctoral Fellow.

There's a whole day of presentations on common topics in proctology, including haemorrhoids, pruritus ani, fissure, MRI, endoanal ultrasound pilonidal sinus and more. The highlight is a recording of Professor Robin Phillips (St Mark's Hospital, UK) giving his excellent talk on fistula in ano, which tells you, extremely clearly, all you will ever need to know about fistula in ano and its management. Not to be missed! The site only supports internet explorer, so if you use safari on your computer, you'll have to download internet explorer (theres a link on the site) or use another computer. There's lots there and its all really useful to medical students coming up to finals, core trainees (junior residents) and higher surgical trainees alike.
