Preventing metastases by using perioperative interventions has not been adequately explored. Local anesthesia blocks voltage-gated sodium channels and thereby prevents activation of prometastatic pathways. We conducted an open-label, multicenter randomized trial to test the impact presurgical, peritumoral infiltration local on disease-free survival (DFS).Women with early breast cancer planned for upfront surgery without prior neoadjuvant treatment were randomly assigned receive injection...
This study strives to look for the knowledge, attitudes, and practices of areca nut use among health care workers in a tertiary hospital North-East India. A prospective, cross-sectional, questionnaire-based was conducted all allied at public sector teaching Meghalaya, Northeast questionnaire, which validated content, administered target population. Three domains learned behavior towards viz. knowledge (cognitive), attitude (affective) practice (psychomotor) were assessed. Data analyzed using...
Childhood cancers are emerging as an essential concern in India where there is lack of a specific programme component or policy to address childhood cancer control. There limited information on the status and quality care services India. This paper describes available at secondary tertiary-level hospitals through cross sectional study design.The survey was conducted 137 92 secondary-level 26 states 4 Union Territories (UTs), ensuring uniform representation public private hospitals. The tool...
This study prospectively quantified wastage of cancer chemotherapeutic drugs in an oncology unit to find the associated cost 3 months. Retrospective analysis drug usage for 12 months was also conducted determine expected loss 1 year. The effect vial sharing evaluated under assumption sharing. A significant 19.72% (95% confidence interval [CI], 14.52–24.93%) and 17.14% CI 14.69–19.59%) year occurred our unit. Number vials purchased ( r = 0.362, p < 0.01), weight −0.146, P .01) body surface...
Introduction Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common in world among men and second women worldwide. One of major molecular pathways responsible for development colorectal microsatellite instability (MSI) pathway. During carcinogenesis, tumor cells express programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1), which reduces immunogenicity leading to escape immune attack. Anti-PD-L1 interaction an upcoming line research treatment carcinoma patients. Materials methods The present study was ambispective...
How does the accuracy of deep neural network models trained to classify clinical images skin conditions vary across color? While recent studies demonstrate computer vision can serve as a useful decision support tool in healthcare and provide dermatologist-level classification on number specific tasks, darker is underrepresented data. Most publicly available data sets do not include Fitzpatrick type labels. We annotate 16,577 sourced from two dermatology atlases with labels open-source these...
Abstract Aims Surgery is the only modality that offers cure for periampullary adenocarcinoma. However, surgery alone results in failure 60% of patients. Studies have shown some benefits chemotherapy node positive and higher tumor stage We sought to determine role adjuvant early tumors with uninvolved nodes. Methods A retrospective analysis a prospectively maintained database patients resected from 2007 2014 was performed. Patients were studied adverse risk factors, therapy received survival....
Orbital location of extraskeletal osteosarcoma is extremely rare with only 4 cases reported so far in the English literature. We present case a 32-year-old female who presented proptosis and complete loss vision left eye. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography scan showed densely calcified lobulated lesion optic nerve showing strong enhancement. A fronto-occipito-zygomatic osteotomy was conducted greyish brown tumor identified. Histopathological immunohistochemical examination curetted...
Introduction Biliary tree stenting for malignant biliary tract obstructions is a routine modality the relief of jaundice. Treatment palliative in most circumstances. However, adequate reduction bilirubin levels after percutaneous transhepatic drainage (PTBD) may help to offer chemotherapy, which improve survival limited number cases. Materials and methods Between March 2017 2023, patients who were treated with PTBD relieve obstruction included analysis. Patients achieved ≤5 mg/dL considered...
Abstract Background Video Assisted Thoracoscopy (VATS) is the preferred approach to Esophagectomy thanks improved short term outcomes without any compromise on oncological outcomes. VATS technically difficult and has a steep learning curve, with several potential complications. Description This video of patient early esophageal cancer (T1N0M0) who underwent esophagectomy in semi-prone position capnothorax. There was an inadvertent injury membranous wall left bronchus which sutured using...
Abstract Background Northeast India has a high incidence of esophageal cancer(EC), with age-adjusted incidences ranging from 19 to 50 per 100,000 (in females and males respectively). This is over ten times the average EC in India. The local preparation raw betel nut,‘kwai’, integral culture, but its role not been established. study aimed assess nut, or without tobacco as causative agent for EC. alcohol was also studied. Methods A multi-centric, matched case-control performed October 2022...
Solitary fibrous tumour (SFT), a unique spindle-cell neoplasm, was first identified in the pleura and earlier named as haemangiopericytoma. The origin of SFT is not well established; however, it has recently been described mesenchymal probably arising from ubiquitous dendritic interstitial cells. SFTs are predominantly benign tumours with low risk malignant transformation commonly seen intrathoracic region, seldom involving extrapleural locations. Although extensively documented medical...
Abstract Introduction Pharyngeal and laryngeal carcinomas, included under head neck cancers, pose a significant challenge in India, accounting for around one-third of all cancer cases. Noninvasive techniques like contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) CT perfusion (CTp) can help explore the correlation between tumor differentiations, which greatly benefit diagnosis, understanding recurrence postintervention, monitoring progress disease. Materials Methods A hospital-based...
Staging laparoscopy (SL) is the current standard staging workup for loco-advanced gastric cancers (GCs). Materials and Methods: We analyzed data of all patients with loco-regionally advanced, nonmetastatic GCs, who underwent SL evaluation peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC).We (PC).Between December 2013 October 2016, 363 SL, which 75 (20.7%) were found to have PC on SL. Age ≤40 years, CA 19-9 > upper limit normal, low serum albumin levels (≤3.5 g/dl) correlated significantly presence There was a...
<h3>History.</h3> —W. F. N., male child, aged 2, up to Dec. 23, 1909, had no serious illness. About 3 a. m., December the child awoke and seemed be in great pain. Half an ounce of castor-oil was given by parents. 5 m. began vomiting. Pain vomiting continuing, a physician called about noon. He prescribed calomel more castoroil, but everything mouth rejected.

Eccrine porocarcinoma is a rare malignant skin appendage tumor of sweat gland origin. arising in patient oculocutaneous albinism extremely and only two cases have been reported English literature to the best our knowledge. Out eccrine albinism, one case had squamous differentiation. We report with differentiation 39-year-old male, who presented nodular lesion on upper left chest wall. He also nodal distant cutaneous metastasis.
Background: The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted healthcare systems leading to concerns about its impact on non-COVID disease conditions. diagnosis and management of cancer is time-sensitive likely be substantially affected by these disruptions. We conducted a study examine the care in India.Methods: member institutions National Cancer Grid India compare provision oncology services during months March May 2020 with corresponding 2019. collected data related treatment, screening, research...
