To determine the accuracy of unenhanced magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in detection acute appendicitis patients younger than 50 years who present to emergency department with right lower quadrant (RLQ) pain.The institutional review board approved this retrospective study 403 from August 1, 2012, July 30, 2014, and waived informed consent requirement. A cross-department strategy was instituted use MR as primary diagnostic modality aged 3-49 presented RLQ pain. All examinations were performed...
Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNSTs) represent a rare subtype of neural crest cell-derived soft tissue sarcomas (STS). Standard care therapy comprises surgical resection followed by adjuvant radiation, and most clinical studies have demonstrated finite survival benefit radiation chemotherapy. In metastatic disease, palliative chemotherapy provides very limited efficacy. We report 60-year-old male patient with primary para vertebral tumor at T7-T8 lung metastases who recurred...
Abstract Background Hispanics and American Indians (AI) have high kidney cancer incidence mortality rates in Arizona. This study assessed: (1) whether racial ethnic minority patients from neighborhoods with social vulnerability index (SVI) experience a longer time to surgery after clinical diagnosis, (2) surgery, race ethnicity, SVI are associated upstaging pT3/pT4, disease‐free survival (DFS), overall (OS). Methods Arizona Cancer Registry (2009–2018) renal pelvis cases ( n = 4592) were...
