Tamoxifen (Tam) has long been a top treatment option for breast cancer patients, but the challenge of eliminating recurrence remains. Here, we identify signalling pathway involving ELOVL2, ELOVL2-AS1, and miR-1233-3p, which contributes to drug resistance in Tam-resistant (TamR) cancer. noncoding RNA, was significantly upregulated by its antisense gene, is known be downregulated TamR cells. Additionally, ELOVL2-AS1 underwent most hypermethylation MCF-7/TamR Furthermore, patients with who...
The incidence of breast cancer in Korea has been increasing recent years, such that it is now the most common female cancer. Breast characterized by an earlier age onset than Western countries, suggesting would be related with genetic background. We assayed germline mutations BRCA genes to evaluate their pathology Korean patients. study subjects consisted 173 patients at clinically higher risk and 109 unselected Germline entire coding sequences BRCA1 BRCA2 were analyzed...
With varied reports on the impact of time to appendectomy clinical outcomes, purpose this study was determine effect preoperative in-hospital delay outcome for patients with acute appendicitis.A retrospective review 1,076 who had undergone an between January 2010 and December 2013 conducted.The outcomes surgery pathologic findings were analyzed according elapsed time. The overall from onset symptoms positively associated advanced pathology, increased number complications, prolonged hospital...
A primary fibrosarcoma of the breast is a rare tumor. Here we report on case that presented as palpable left mass in 47-year-old woman. The physical examination revealed 3 cm sized, round upper outer breast. mammograms partially circumscribed and obscured, high density quadrant An ultrasonogram demonstrated ovoid, hypoechoic with peripheral increased vascularity Doppler imaging. Surgical excision was performed pathology low grade fibrosarcoma.
Backgrounds/Aims Major hepato-pancreato-biliary (HPB) surgery is usually performed via an open method rather than a laparoscopic method. Postoperative ileus (POI) classic complication after surgery. The purpose of this study was to determine whether polylactic film useful in the prevention POI. Methods A total 179 patients who underwent major HPB between 2005 and 2014, were retrospectively reviewed. diagnosis POI made by physical examination, laboratory, radiological findings. Surgi-Wrap®...
Cordyceps militaris has been widely used as a traditional medicine in East Asia. Its effects against breast cancer have reported previously. However, whether C. ‐induced cell death is immunogenic remains unelucidated. This study aimed to determine ethanolic extracts of (CM‐EE) could induce (ICD) immunotherapy improve the efficacy immune checkpoint inhibitors. Human and mouse cells were treated with various concentrations CM‐EE for 72 h, cytotoxicity was measured using sulforhodamine B assay....

Totally extraperitoneal (TEP) hernia repair has gained in popularity the past two decades. Despite advantages TEP repair, approach is hindered by relatively long learning curve of surgery. We tried to estimate necessary number repetitions using logarithmic and exponential function models.
immediate reconstruction provides psychological satisfaction and good cosmetic outcome for patients with breast cancer. However, this is a lengthy procedure to perform, there increased risk of pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE). The purpose study was evaluate the efficiency use low molecular weight heparins (enoxaparin) prophylaxis against pulmomary followed by mastectomy an transverse rectus abdominis myocutaneous flap (TRAM) in Methods: A total 123 underwent skin-sparing TRAM....
We report here on a case of 51-year-old woman with metastatic small cell carcinoma the breast that came from her cancer uterine cervix. She underwent radical hysterectomy bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy due to cervix, and adjuvant radiotherapy was administered pelvis. Breast metastasis palpable mass then occurred 3 months after primary surgery. Simple mastectomy chemotherapy were performed. initially showed good response therapy, yet she ultimately died multiple metastases fulminating...
Pegfilgrastim is a widely used long-acting granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) that prevents febrile neutropenia (FN) in patients with breast cancer receiving chemotherapy. This study aimed to evaluate the incidence of chemotherapy-related FN events and other adverse (AEs) during chemotherapy Korean treated pegfilgrastim as secondary prophylactic support.This was multicenter, open-label, prospective, observational study. A total 1255 were enrolled from 43 institutions. The...
Purpose: Axillary lymph node metastasis is one of the most important prognostic factors in breast cancer. Previous reports show differences that clinicopathologic influence systemic recurrence and survival axillary negative Thus, we have attempted to determine on Methods: We retrospectively reviewed data 1,351 cancer patients who underwent curative surgery such as age, sex, body mass index (BMI), family history, bilateral cancer, operation method, tumor size, stage, histologic grade, number...
A 48-year-old man presented for evaluation of general weakness. Because he had a history excessive alcohol use, an abdominal computed tomography scan was obtained, which revealed left adrenal mass. Hormonal showed elevated levels urinary catecholamines. Bilateral hilar lymphadenopathy detected on chest radiograph. The suspected diagnosis asymptomatic pheochromocytoma with sarcoidosis. We performed mediastinoscopic lymph node biopsy, followed by endoscopic adrenalectomy. Histologic tissue...
