Idiopathic Granulomatous Mastitis (IGM) is an uncommon inflammatory disease of the breast, with similar presentations as breast cancer and a relatively high recurrence rate. We reviewed demographics, clinical presentations, treatment modalities large cohort patients in Iran. Most had history pregnancy breastfeeding. The most common finding was pain palpable mass, respectively. received medical treatment, about half surgery. rate 24.8%, skin lesions were associated significantly higher odds...

Abstract Introduction: Disparities in access to palliative care persist, particularly among underserved populations. We elicited recommendations for integrating community health workers (CHWs) into clinical teams, by exploring perspectives on potential barriers and facilitators, ultimately aiming facilitate equitable care. Materials Methods: Twenty-five stakeholders were recruited semi-structured interviews through purposive snowball sampling at three enrollment sites the USA. Interviews...

The goal of this study is to compare the response rate and recurrence available therapeutic modalities in treatment Idiopathic Granulomatous Mastitis (IGM). 374 patients with pathologically confirmed IGM, were included. They subdivided into three levels severity. Close observation had best lowest mild moderate cases. Severe cases mostly treated by prednisolone or underwent surgery. outcome use severe was comparable NSAIDs. Overall 9% resistant surgical intervention still an option among them.

Abstract Background The monarchE trial demonstrated improved outcomes with the use of adjuvant abemaciclib in patients high‐risk hormone receptor–positive, HER2–negative (HR+/HER2–) breast cancer defined as ≥4 positive lymph nodes (+LNs) or one to three +LNs more additional features (HRFs). proportion two sentinel (+SLNs) without HRFs who had at time completion axillary node dissection (cALND), and therefore qualified for receipt abemaciclib, was investigated. Methods Females pathologically...

Abstract Background Management and axillary staging of breast cancer has become less invasive more conservative, over the decades. Considering Z011, lymph node dissection (ALND) can be avoided in T1-2 N0-1 cancers with one or two positive sentinel nodes (SLNs), if they are candidates for conserving surgery radiotherapy. The aim this study was to recognize pre-operative US evaluation early-stage could lead ALND post Z011 era. Method 463 patients were evaluated. 368 (T1-2 N0) included. We did...

e13620 Background: Breast-conserving surgery (BCS) followed by radiotherapy requires adequate removal of the malignancy with a negative margin. Accurate pathologic margin status is not available intraoperatively and found to be positive in up 20% cases, necessitating re-excision. Specimen mammography (SM), used find biopsy marker, may assist but only 55% sensitive for Intraoperative assessment (IMA). IMA methods are being increasingly investigated. Because micro-computed tomography...

Background: Idiopathic granulomatous mastitis (IGM) is a rare inflammatory disease of the breast with unknown etiology. Clinico-radiologic findings can mimic cancer. Further pathologic evaluation to rule out malignancy mandatory. Recognizing severity crucial choosing most effective therapeutic modality.

Abstract Introduction: In recent years, there has been increasing use of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) and pathologic complete response (pCR) rates for certain breast cancer phenotypes (40-70%). Although encouraging, this resulted in uncertainties traditional axillary management. Meanwhile, clinically node-positive (cN+) patients who have a low burden disease downstaged to node-negative (ypN0) after NAC get breast-conserving surgery (BCS) may avoid an lymph node dissection (cALND) but still...

1086 Background: Approximately 6% of patients have de novo metastatic breast cancer (MBC) for whom surgery is reserved special circumstances since it confers no survival benefit. The prospective studies evaluating the primary site in MBC recommended standard surgical management axilla. However, unclear whether axillary any utility among these patients. We sought to evaluate benefit undergoing surgery. Methods: From National Cancer Database (2012-2020), we identified aged 18-79 with and...
