Objective: To create a comprehensive algorithmic approach to reconstruction after vulvar cancer ablative surgery, which includes both traditional and perforator flaps, evaluating anatomical subunits shape of the defect.Methods: We retrospectively reviewed 80 cases performed between June 2006 January 2016, transferring 101 flaps.We registered possibility achieve complete wound closure, even in presence very complex defects, postoperative complications.On basis these experience, analyzing...
Groin dissection is the procedure with highest risk of lower limb lymphedema.As lymph stasis causes irreversible alterations to over time,therapies should be administered in early stages,or better yet, lymphatic drainage impairment prevented.We developed a new preventive approach lymphedema after groin dissection, and we report our preliminary experience.We enrolled 5 patients undergoing bilateral for vulvar cancer. Preoperative study limbs function was obtained by lymphoscintigraphy,...
ABSTRACT In centers with access to high‐end ultrasound machines and expert sonologists, is used detect metastases in regional lymph nodes from melanoma, breast cancer vulvar cancer. There is, as yet, no international consensus on assessment of any disease or medical condition. The lack standardized nomenclature describe makes it difficult compare results different studies find reliable features for distinguishing non‐infiltrated infiltrated by lymphoma cells. Vulvar International Tumor...
ABSTRACT Objective To assess the accuracy of preoperative ultrasound examination for predicting lymph‐node (LN) status in patients with vulvar cancer. Methods This was a single‐institution retrospective observational study all women histological diagnosis cancer triaged to inguinal surgery within 30 days following evaluation between December 2010 and January 2016. For each groin examined, 15 morphological dimensional sonographic parameters associated suspicion LN involvement were examined. A...
This retrospective study aimed to assess the diagnostic performance of preoperative [18F]FDG-PET/CT in predicting groin and pelvic lymph node (LN) status a large single-centre series vulvar cancer patients.Between January 2013 October 2018, among all consecutive women with proven submitted [18F]FDG-PET/CT, 160 patients were included. LNs analysed by two qualitative methods assessing PET information (defined as visual assessment) combination low-dose CT overall assessment), respectively, well...
The standard surgical treatment of early stage vulvar carcinoma < 4 cm consists resection the tumor with sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy (Oonk in Int J Gynecol Cancer 33:1023-1043, 2023). Video-endoscopic inguinal SLN indocyanine green (ICG) has been described (Capomacchia et al. Cancer, 2024). However, ICG induces fleeting mapping lymphatic pathways, making bilateral more challenging. aim this video is to show how perform by video-endoscopic approach. We present case an 81-year-old patient...
Ablative surgery for vulvar cancer can involve the resection of perineum, vagina, urethra, groins, mons pubis, and abdominal wall creating complex defects. In our opinion, ALT flap is an ideal reconstruction, because low incidence complications, long pedicle outside radiotherapy field, capability carrying fascia muscle, possibility sensate donor site morbidity. The purpose this report to describe experience with reconstruction after extirpative surgery, discussing indications defects...
This study aimed to assess the value of dual-timepoint 18F-FDG PET/CT in prediction lymph node (LN) status patients with invasive vulvar cancer (VC) scheduled for inguinofemoral LN dissection. Methods: From April 2013 July 2015, all consecutive VC dissection were prospectively enrolled. All underwent a preoperative whole-body scan at 1 h (standard examination) and an additional from T11 groins 3 (delayed after injection. On both scans, each groin was visually scored 0 or concerning uptake...
Abstract Introduction Pelvic lymphadenectomy (PL) causes changes to the inguinal lymph nodes with progressive loss of immune and lymphatic pump function. Efferent vessel‐to‐venous anastomosis (ELVA) has been reported address this problem. The aim report was describe feasibility SPECT/CT combined ultrasound fusion imaging (UFI) target groin efferent node (GELN) for ELVA. Patients Methods Twelve patients lower limb lymphedema after PL were scheduled peripheric lymphaticovenular (LVA)...
