ABSTRACT Background and Objectives There is emerging evidence that host related variables predict outcomes in various cancers. The Host index (H‐index) incorporates host‐related, blood‐derived biomarkers (immunological nutritional parameters) as a single mathematical formula. aim of this study was to evaluate using the H‐index prognostic marker gallbladder cancer (GBC) patients undergoing curative resection. Methods Retrospective cohort surgically treated GBCs at tertiary centre from January...
A 71-year-old lady with no comorbidities presented a 2-week history of colicky abdominal pain associated nausea and constipation. There was vomiting, fever, or weight loss. Physical examination unremarkable. Axial imaging demonstrated 3-cm soft tissue mass spiculated margins in the mesentery distal ileum (Fig. 1), multiple hyperdense deposits along mesenteric vasculature retraction. evidence liver metastases. On exploratory laparotomy, 5X6 firm-hard tumour noted terminal enlarged nodes...
Cervical cancer is a public health problem in India due to weak national screening policy compounded by lack of resources including scarcity trained personnel carry out community-based program. Para medical professionals (PMPs) are closely related women local communities. Hence, training PMPs incorporating novel technology and reduced time duration achieve adequate competence an area underutilized needs be explored.A pilot cross sectional analytical study was conducted at tertiary referral...
In a rural-based setting, providing optimal treatment is often difficult owing to the limited resources and financial constraints being rampant in cancer care delivery. Oncological resections result large, complex defects requiring free flap reconstruction achieve cosmetic and/or functional goals. This article focuses on our experience of starting promoting microvascular rural tertiary medical college hospital.
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common cancers worldwide, incidence which parallels that areas with high prevalence chronic hepatitis. HCC commonly metastasizes to lungs, lymph nodes, adrenals and bones overall prognosis metastatic being dismal. We herein present a case 70-year-old male who was referred our institution history nasal obstruction bleeding on further evaluation diagnosed have an isolated metastasis nasopharynx from liver primary. Extrahepatic in occurs about...
Neurological paraneoplastic syndromes are rarely the first manifestation of an underlying cancer. A high index suspicion is thus needed to diagnose such conditions. Paraneoplastic limbic encephalitis one entity which well described in association with small cell lung cancers, testicular germ tumors, breast cancers and ovarian tumors. This article describes being associated tumor. 36-year-old female presented abnormal behaviour, mood swings delusions. She was evaluated for her psychiatric...
Background: The management of several malignancies requires prolonged venous access and repeated injections. While totally implantable devices (TIVADs) can help circumvent many difficulties related to cannulation, these are associated with their own share complications. Objectives: In this study, we report our experience TIVADs, the complications them salvage rate. Materials Methods: This retrospective study adult patients who underwent TIVAD insertion for cancer cytotoxic chemotherapy...
Background: Limb salvage surgery (LSS) is the current surgical standard for malignant bone tumors. The advancements in imaging, techniques, chemotherapy, and biomedical engineering have made LSS oncologically safe with improved functional outcome. In this retrospective study, we report our experience perioperative chemotherapy osteosarcoma a tertiary cancer center India. Materials Methods: A total of 41 were performed from January 2009 to 2015. Perioperative was administered all patients...
A 50-year-old woman presented with a painless lesion deep in the nail of left little finger, which she had first noted 2 months earlier. There was no history associated trauma or pruritus. The physical examination revealed firm 2-cm scab center.
Objectives: The main objective was to study the oncological outcomes of patients undergoing unplanned (uP) excision for soft-tissue sarcomas (STS) at a tertiary cancer institute. Materials and Methods: This retrospective analysis STS from June 2009 December 2015. Patients who had undergone uP surgery outside followed by definitive were compared those our center. outcomes, including overall survival (OS) disease-free (DFS), analyzed using Kaplan–Meier method. Results: A total 51 included: 22...
Quality of life (QOL) is an important parameter to evaluate and modify in patients treated for cervical cancer as long-term survival excellent early-stage reasonably good locally advanced stage compared other solid cancers. The aim the study was cross sectional evaluation quality survivors completing at least 3 years follow-up after curative therapy a tertiary institute.All patients, following primary treatment with no evidence recurrence follow-up, were assessed QOL using European...
Follicular thyroid cancers constitute 15-20% of all tumors. The usual mode dissemination is via the hematogenous route. most common sites distant metastasis are to lungs and bones.A case presented demonstrate unusual presentation follicular cancer with synchronous digital (distal phalanx little finger) choroidal that was responsive radioiodine treatment.A 54-year-old female swelling over terminal part left finger thyromegaly. Investigations revealed from along pulmonary metastases. She...
Background: The utilization of mediastinoscopy for mediastinal staging or evaluation has been on the wane, because increasing use methods such as endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)/endobronchial (EBUS). choice one modality over other is based individual preferences, expertise, cost, and disease in question. Objectives: This study was aimed at assessing changing trends practice techniques across India. Materials Methods: online, questionnaire-based survey conducted Malabar Cancer Center, Kerala,...
