Breast cancer-related lymphedema (LE) represents an important morbidity that jeopardizes breast cancer patients' quality of life. Different attempts to prevent LE brought about improvements in the incidence pathology but still a frequent occurrence survivors. Over 4 years ago, Lymphatic Microsurgical Preventing Healing Approach (LYMPHA) was proposed and long-term results are reported this study. From July 2008 December 2012, 74 patients underwent axillary nodal dissection for treatment...
The effects of inhaled MgSO 4 on histamine bronchoprovocation test (BPT) were studied in nine asthmatics clinical remission (FEV 1 > 80% predicted). Patients performed BPT 2 separate days, one day after saline and the other inhalation, a randomized double‐blind design. Spirometry flow/volume curve recorded each before 5 min NaCl or . No significant difference was observed lung function measurements days either dose which produced 20% decrease control FEV (PD 20 ) significantly increased...
Breast cancer (BC) is the most common malignancy among women. Among 5%–10% of diagnoses are correlated with hereditary syndromes, while remaining cases sporadic and linked to multiple factors. When a pathogenetic variant in one genes commonly associated BC detected, patient referred tailored surveillance program; otherwise, standard follow-up guidelines applied. We present unique case diagnosed two monozygotic twins at same age apparently unrelated syndrome known date. Notably, despite...
Groin lymphocele (GL) is a frequent complication of inguinal lymph node dissection, and conservative treatment not always successful. Different surgical methods have been used to treat lymphoceles arising from lymphatics injured during groin surgery. However, they all involve the closure merging at lymphocele, increasing risk postoperative lower limb lymphedema or worsening if already clinically evident. We assessed efficacy diagnostic therapeutic protocol manage using lymphoscintigraphy...
Successful therapeutic cancer prevention requires definition of the minimal effective dose. Aromatase inhibitors decrease breast incidence in high-risk women, but use and compliance adjuvant settings are hampered by adverse events.
In a 3-arm presurgical trial, four-six weeks exemestane 25 mg three times/week (TIW) was non-inferior to mg/day (QD) in suppressing circulating estradiol postmenopausal women with ER-positive breast cancer. Since obesity may decrease efficacy, we analyzed changes sex steroids, adipokines, Ki-67, and drug levels relation obesity. Postmenopausal early-stage cancer were randomized either QD (n = 57), TIW or mg/week (QW, n 62) for 4-6 before surgery. Serum tissue pre- post-treatment biomarkers...
