BACKGROUND: Although lumpectomy and mastectomy provide equivalent survival for patients with breast cancer, local recurrence after increases cancer mortality. Positive margins, which imply incomplete tumor removal, are the strongest predictor of identified days surgery, necessitating a second surgery. METHODS: In this prospective trial, we assessed margin status or without pegulicianine fluorescence-guided surgery (pFGS) stages 0 to 3 cancers. To prevent surgeons from performing smaller than...
Breast cancer survivorship care transitions from active treatment to focus on surveillance and health maintenance. This review article discusses the crucial aspects of breast survivorship, which include surveillance, management side effects, implementation a healthy lifestyle, psychosocial support.
A lymphedema (LE) prevention surgery (LPS) paradigm for patients undergoing axillary lymphadenectomy (ALND) was developed to protect against LE through enhanced lymphatic visualization during reverse mapping (ARM) and refinement in decision making lymphaticovenous bypass (LVB).A retrospective analysis of a prospective database performed evaluating with breast cancer who underwent ALND, ARM, LVB from September 2016 December 2018. Patient tumor characteristics, oncologic reconstructive...
We evaluated oncologic outcomes and complications of skin-sparing mastectomy (SSM) nipple-sparing (NSM) with immediate reconstruction (IR) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in patients early-stage locally advanced breast cancer (BC).BC from 2000 to 2014 treated NAC followed by SSM/NSM IR were reviewed. Patient demographics, tumor characteristics, response, complications, recurrence analyzed.Two hundred sixty-nine 280 BCs SSM (94%) or NSM (6%) IR. Median age was 47 (26-72) years a median...
BackgroundBilateral nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) is a technically feasible operation and associated with excellent cosmetic outcomes. The aim of this study was to evaluate trends in patient characteristics, indications for surgery long-term outcomes bilateral NSM breast cancer risk reduction over time.
Adjuvant radiation therapy has been associated with improved local control following breast-conserving surgery. Traditionally, treatment delivered whole breast irradiation over 3-6 weeks or partial 1-3 weeks. However, intraoperative (IORT) emerged as a technique that delivers single dose of radiotherapy at the time surgery for early-stage cancers. We report initial outcomes and acute toxicities from institution. Patients DCIS Stage I-II cancer who underwent lumpectomy sentinel lymph node...
Milk fistula is an uncommon condition which occurs when there abnormal connection that forms between the skin surface and duct in breast of a lactating woman, resulting spontaneous often constant drainage milk from this path least resistance. A usually complication results needle biopsy or surgical intervention patient. Here, authors present unusual case developed abscess woman. The patient initially presented to office with large open wound on her breast, formed breakdown, within was...
Abstract: Idiopathic granulomatous mastitis (IGM) is a rare, benign breast condition characterized by multiple draining sterile abscesses. This of unknown etiology commonly presents in young, parous women with recent history lactation and Mediterranean or Hispanic descent. IGM unilaterally localization the upper outer quadrant but can present any both breasts concurrently. disease mimic cancer on various imaging modalities causing concern as well presenting erythema, edema, pain, sinus tract...
Background: Aging is associated with a decline in immune function. This may contribute to decreased ability of an elderly patient mount appropriate innate inflammatory response when injured. study examined trauma patients determine whether there was difference neutrophil injury compared controls. Methods: prospective, observational, cohort function 24 injured (older than 65 years) admitted our center control groups noninjured individuals (11 and 17 young). Blood samples were also taken from...
