Abstract Objectives We aimed to assess the performance of radiomics and machine learning (ML) for classification non-cystic benign malignant breast lesions on ultrasound images, compare ML’s accuracy with that a radiologist, verify if radiologist’s is improved by using ML. Methods Our retrospective study included patients from two institutions. A total 135 Institution 1 were used train test ML model cross-validation. Radiomic features extracted manually annotated images underwent multistep...
Weight gain and metabolic changes have been related to survival of early breast cancer patients (EBC). ''However, factors influencing metabolism post-diagnosis are not fully understood. We measured anthropometric [body mass index (BMI), body weight, waist hip circumferences, waist-to-hip ratio] (levels insulin, glucose, H1Ac, total, HDL, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, the homeostasis model assessment score [HOMA]) parameters in 433 pre- post-menopausal women with EBC at diagnosis 3, 6, 9,...
Abstract Background Ultrasound‐guided fine‐needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) (US‐guided FNAB) is a rapid and cost‐effective procedure for the diagnosis of breast lesions. Our Institution has long tradition in FNAB performed by cytopathologists; recently we adopted both US guidance five‐tiered classification system similar to that proposed International Academy Cytology (IAC). The aim this study was demonstrate continuing role US‐guided lesions, despite growing adoption core‐needle (CNB)....
It has been widely reported that breast reconstruction improves the quality of life women who undergo mastectomy for cancer. <br />This approach provides many psychological advantages. Today, different techniques are available oncoplastic surgeon />that involve use implants and autologous tissues, also offering interesting results in terms aesthetic patient-reported />outcomes. On other hand, advanced technologies design strategies (i.e. additive manufacturing, reverse...
CD4 + FOXP3 regulatory T cells (T regs ) suppress immune responses to tumors, and their accumulation in the tumor microenvironment (TME) correlates with poor clinical outcome several cancers, including breast cancer (BC). However, properties of intratumoral remain largely unknown. Here, we found that a functionally distinct subpopulation , expressing Exon2 splicing variants, is prominent patients hormone receptor–positive BC prognosis. Notably, comprehensive examination TCGA validated...
Abstract Background Therapeutic mammaplasty, which combines breast reduction and mastopexy techniques with tumour excision, may extend the boundaries of breast-conserving surgery improve outcomes for patients, but current practice is unknown high-quality outcome data are lacking. This prospective multicentre cohort study aimed to explore short-term technique. Methods Consecutive patients undergoing therapeutic mammaplasty at participating centres between 1 September 2016 30 June 2017 were...
Primary angiosarcoma (AS) of the breast is a rare neoplasia that not related to radiation exposure. It represents less than 0.05% all malignant tumors. This lesion characterized by aggressive patterns and poor prognosis absence typical features at radiologic examination. Currently there are evidence-based guidelines regarding surgical adjuvant treatment for this tumor even though wide resection followed chemo- radiotherapy appears improve both disease free survival overall survival. The aim...
Abstract Background Therapeutic mammaplasty (TM) may be an alternative to mastectomy, but few well designed studies have evaluated the success of this approach or compared short-term outcomes TM with mastectomy without immediate breast reconstruction (IBR). Data from national iBRA-2 and TeaM were combined compare safety IBR. Methods The subgroup patients in study who underwent avoid identified, data on demographics, complications, oncology adjuvant treatment those undergoing IBR study....
Groin hernia is one of the most frequently encountered pathologies occurring in old age and it often cause emergency procedures. In our study we evaluate impact procedures over 75 patients compared to younger patients. We conducted a retrospective about who underwent hernioplasty between September 2007 January 2013. Bilateral hernias recurrences were excluded. divided into two groups by (under years old) then analyzed early postoperative surgical complications. A total 48 enrolled, 18...
Inguinal hernioplasty is well established as a day-surgery procedure, our purpose to assess the safeness of this approach in elderly patients. A total 292 inguinal were performed between June 2009 and February 2013. Patients divided into 3 groups depending on age postoperative complications compared these groups. Despite large number higher risk (ASA 3-4) patients rate comorbidity older patients, unplanned admission postoperative, symptoms comparable with those for younger Ambulatory surgery...
Old age is associated with comorbidity and decreased functioning which influences treatment decisions in elderly breast cancer patients. The purpose of this study was to identify risk factors for complications after surgery patients, assess mortality patients postoperative complications. We retrospectively considered all female aged 65 years older invasive situ who were diagnosed treated between 1997 2012 the Department General Geriatric Surgery University Naples "Federico II". 449 received...
The effect of undertreatment with adjuvant hormonal therapy, chemotherapy or radiation was studied in elderly women breast cancer.A prospectively maintained database used to identify undergoing potentially curative surgery between 1997 and 2011. presentation, pathologic findings, treatment outcomes 449 over 65 were compared the findings 1049 younger patients. Moreover, conventionally treated undertreated patients identified their characteristics compared.Both young old presented most...

Sir: High cohesive silicone gel breast implants, introduced in Europe 1993, are composed of a textured elastomer shell and filled with high gel. is formed by increasing the number crosslinks between molecules, which results an implant that has better retention shape less likely to fold or collapse, especially upper pole.2 It also been claimed event rupture implant, will not leak into surrounding tissues be unlikely spread elsewhere.1 We present case implants locoregional axillary lymph...
