The role of sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) in ductal carcinoma situ (DCIS) is controversial. This study evaluates the risk clinically relevant SLN metastasis following a core needle (CNB) diagnosis pure DCIS.Cases that underwent SLNB CNB DCIS at our institution over 4.5 year period were evaluated. Parameters including characteristics on CNB, rate upstaging to invasive excision and result recorded.Of 296 patients with DCIS, 181 had (62%). invasion those undergoing was 30% (54/181)....
Prophylactic antimicrobial therapy is defined as the administration of an agent prior to contamination previously sterile tissues or fluids, in attempt reduce microbial burden intraoperative contamination. should cover anticipated floral contamination, with therapeutic levels from incision closure.

Cases of true mycotic popliteal artery aneurysm are rare. Presentation is variable but invasive and non-invasive investigations collectively facilitate diagnosis guide operative procedures. Definitive treatment generally utilizes surgical intervention with excision reconstruction using autologous vein graft. Prolonged targeted antibiotic therapy an important adjuvant.We describe the clinical presentation, radiological strategies on management a 47-year-old Caucasian Irish man who presented...
