Axillary lymphadenectomy or sentinel biopsy is integral part of breast cancer treatment, yet seroma formation occurs in 15-85% cases. Among methods employed to reduce magnitude and duration, fibrin glue has been proposed numerous studies with controversial results. Thirty patients over 60 years underwent quadrantectomy mastectomy level I/II axillary lymphadenectomy; a suction drain was fitted all patients. Fibrin spray were applied the fossa 15 patients; other treated harmonic scalpel....
To retrospectively evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of vertebroplasty using Spinejack implantation for treatment stabilization painful vertebral compression fractures, in patients diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma (MM), to allow both an effective pain reduction a global structural spine stabilization.From July 2017 May 2022 thirty-nine MM, forty-nine fractures underwent percutaneous Vertebroplasty Implants. We analyzed complications procedure, decrease visual analogue scale (VAS)...
Psoriasis (PsO) is a multifactorial chronic and relapsing skin disease that affects about 125 million people in the world. Several studies have demonstrated link between adipose tissue, inflammation, PsO. The purpose of our study to evaluate hypodermal tissue inflammation underneath PsO plaques quantifying elasticity with sonoelastography before after treatment. was conducted at Department Dermatology University "Rome Tor Vergata" Radiology Vergata."We enrolled 60 patients plaque PASI score...
(1) Background: The aim of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the safety and efficacy a combined CT-guided percutaneous microwave ablation (MWA) pedicle screw fixation followed by vertebroplasty (MASFVA) for treatment stabilization painful vertebral metastases with involvement. (2) Methods: from January 2013 2017 11 patients 16 metastatic lesions (7 men 5 women; mean age, 65 ± years) underwent (MASFVA). Technical success, complication rate, pain evaluation using visual analogue scale...
(1) Background: Cement distribution after radiofrequency ablation of spinal metastases can be unpredictable due to various tumor factors, and vertebral augmentation requires advanced devices prevent cement leakage achieve satisfactory filling. The purpose this study is evaluate the safety efficacy a platform steerable technologies with an articulating (RFA) probe targeted cavity creation before in treatment painful metastases. (2) Methods: Sixteen patients (mean age, 67 years) underwent RFA...
(1) Background: to retrospectively evaluate safety and efficacy of combined microwave ablation (MWA) bilateral expandable titanium SpineJack (SJ) implants followed by vertebroplasty (VP) for the treatment painful thoracolumbar pathological vertebral compression fracture. (2) Methods: from July 2017 October 2022, twenty-eight patients (13 women 15 men; mean age 68 ± 11 years) with a history primary neoplasm thirty-six metastases fracture underwent MWA vertebroplasty. We analyzed through...
Objectives To determine if there is a clinicodemographic or serological profile associated with MRI-confirmed inflammatory musculoskeletal abnormalities in SLE patients. investigate the relationship between these alterations and HRQoL. Methods patients from our previous study whom wrist hand MRI contrast was performed were included. Sociodemographic, clinical, therapeutic, data PROs collected correlated findings. Results 83 analysed. Erosions synovitis more common older (55 ± 12.61 vs 45.06...
Soft-tissue hematomas are a common clinical entity often associated with trauma, surgery, and bleeding disorders. In the majority of cases, soft-tissue acutely appear spontaneously resolve, but sometimes, they present as swellings that slowly expand progressively increase time. We case 70-year-old man chronic expanding hematoma left flank without any history recent trauma or other medical disease. The diagnosis could not be confirmed on imaging features alone, so patient was taken to surgery...
We report a 26-year-old male patient who was admitted to our emergency department after traffic accident and suffered from neck pain. have found accidentally dorsal spinous process schisis, very rare vertebral abnormality, that we recognized in the X-rays imaging performed for study of lung parenchyma.
Background: Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and cementoplasty, individually in concert, has been adopted as palliative interventional strategies to reduce pain caused by bone metastases prevent skeletal related events. We aim evaluate the feasibility safety of a steerable RFA device with an articulating bipolar extensible electrode for treatment extraspinal metastases. Methods: All data were retrospectively reviewed. procedures performed using (STAR, Merit Medical Systems, Inc., South Jordan,...
Percutaneous CT-guided cryoablation is an emerging technique for treating bone tumors. However, experience with using this procedure osteoid osteomas in pediatric patients remains limited. Our study aims to assess its technical feasibility, clinical efficacy, and safety children treated under conscious anesthesia. We conducted a retrospective of consecutive who underwent percutaneous at our institution between September 2017 March 2021. All received Data on peri-procedural VAS scores,...
The aim of this study is to utilize ultrasound evaluate the normal cross-sectional area (CSA) phrenic nerve (PN), at level anterior scalene muscle. included 62 PNs in 31 healthy subjects (13 men, 18 women); mean age, 36.6 years; height, 161.1 cm; weight, 69.6 kg; and body mass index 25.8 kg/m2. High-resolution images bilateral were obtained by a radiologist with 15 years experience neuromusculoskeletal ultrasound. Three separate CSA measurements for bilaterally obtained. Images also reviewed...

Psoriasis (PsO) is a chronic skin disease. This study aims to evaluate clinical and subclinical response calcipotriol+betamethasone foam, in patients with PsO, comparing, for the first time, data from microvascular ultrasound (MicroV) shear wave elastography (SWE) Area Severity Index (PASI).Between November 2018 April 2019 Tor Vergata Hospital (Roma, Italy), we enrolled 26 PsO who were ageds 20-75 years, PASI score ≥4, candidated foam treatment. They underwent MicroV SWE evaluation at...
