Frozen section (FS) has been shown to have high accuracy in determining ovarian malignancy. However, its utility guiding surgical approaches, particularly, lymph node staging, for early-stage epithelial cancer remains unclear. This study aimed evaluate the post-test positive probability of FSs identifying cases requiring or peritoneal staging. The secondary aims were sensitivity, specificity, and assessments. retrospective analyzed patients undergoing surgery with FS performed on masses...
Abstract Laboratory-markers of the systemic inflammatory-response, such as neutrophil/lymphocyte-ratio (NLR) have been studied prognostic factors in several tumors but OC-patients their role is still controversial and no data about possible correlation with BRCA-status has ever reported. We consecutively enrolled a series 397 newly diagnosed high-grade serous-advanced OC-patients. All patients were tested for BRCA-mutational-status blood-parameters collected 48 h before staging-surgery. A...
Malnutrition among children population of less developed countries is a major health problem. Inadequate food intake and infectious diseases are combined to increase further the prevalence. Malnourishment brings muscle cells loss with development cardiac complications, like arrhythmias, cardiomyopathy sudden death. In countries, malnutrition has generally different etiology, chronic diseases. The aim our study was investigate correlation between left ventricular mass in an African...
Anastomotic leakage (AL) is a severe complication of colorectal surgery. We aimed to quantify inpatient costs and key cost contributors associated with AL in single Italian center.Electronic records for adults who had undergone surgery anastomosis (January 2015 - December 2016), were retrospectively reviewed. Patients identified using clinical signs and/or imaging findings intraoperative findings. Available data included patient, clinical, procedural characteristics, healthcare resource...
Background: Technological advances in visual systems have contributed to overcoming the limitations spatial perception of minimally invasive techniques. To date, there is a lack literature on advantages 3D vision over 4K laparoscopic surgery, although benefits been observed training setting. Objectives: compare operating times, perioperative outcomes, and task achievement using for vaginal cuff closure performed by residents during total hysterectomy (TLH). All surgeons obtained...
Different studies have demonstrated that cervical injection of indocyanine green (ICG) provides accurate bilateral detection sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping in apparent early-stage endometrial cancer.[1 2][1] Nevertheless, some patients, as case severe vaginal stenosis, it is not
Background: Sentinel-lymph node biopsy has safely replaced lymphadenectomy in the staging of many solid cancers. The aim this study was to evaluate sensitivity and specificity sentinel-lymph-node mapping compared with gold standard systematic detecting lymph metastasis apparent early stage ovarian cancer.Methods: In SELLY prospective, phase II trial (EUDRACT 2019-001088-58) patients presumed I-II epithelial cancer planned for surgical were eligible. Seven centers from Italy participated...
<h3>Introduction/Background</h3> Surgical staging in apparent early-stage epithelial ovarian cancer(ES-EOC) requires peritoneal and lymph node assessment; however, some histological subtypes the indication for staging(LNS) may be questioned. Previous studies on frozen section(FS) have reported high overall accuracy determining malignancy of masses. Nevertheless, data value intra-operative FS to plan correct surgical strategy ES-EOC is scanty . Primary secondary endpoints were assess role...
<h3>Introduction</h3> Sentinel-lymph node biopsy has safely replaced lymphadenectomy in the staging of many solid cancers. The aim this study was to evaluate sensitivity and specificity sentinel-lymph-node mapping compared with gold standard complete detecting metastatic disease for early stage ovarian cancer. <h3>Methods</h3> In SELLY multicentre, prospective, phase II trial (EUDRACT 2019–001088-58) patients presumed I-II epithelial cancer planned immediate or delayed minimally-invasive...
Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is a marker of pediatric hypertension and predicts development cardiovascular events. Electrocardiography (ECG) screening used in pediatrics to detect LVH thanks major accessibility, reproducibility easy use compared transthoracic echocardiography (TTE), that remains the standard technique. Several diseases were previously investigated, but no data exists regarding our study population. The aim was evaluate relationship between electrocardiographic...
e17579 Background: Comprehensive surgical staging of early epithelial ovarian cancer includes systematic paraaortic and bilateral pelvic lymphadenectomy but its therapeutic role is controversial it associated with potential severe morbidity. The feasibility sentinel lymph-node (SLN) identification in stage has been shown only. We did a prospective multicenter study to assess the feasibility, detection rate diagnostic accuracy SLN procedure predicting pathological pelvic-node status patients...
