Ultrasonography (renamed from the Journal of Korean Society Ultrasound in Medicine January 2014), official English-language journal (KSUM), is an international peer-reviewed academic dedicated to practice, research, technology, and education dealing with medical ultrasound, Aims Scope:Ultrasonography ultrasound.It published four times per year: 1, April July October 1. Original articles, topical reviews, pictorial essays, notable case reports are covering state-of-the-art content. also...
Backgrounds: Our goal is to evaluate the correct management of broncho-pleural fistula (BPF) after lobectomy for lung cancer. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed our 25-years’ experience and reported strategies diagnostic algorithm post-lobectomy fistula. Results: Five thousand one hundred fifty (5150) patients underwent cancer in period between 1998 2023. A total 44 (0.85%) out 5150 developed post-operative BPF. In 11 cases, BPF was solved by non-invasive treatment. nine direct surgical...
Purpose: To assess the feasibility of fusion imaging between intraprocedural ultrasound (US) and contrast-enhanced cone-beam CT (CBCT) for small (< 2 cm) hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Materials methods: Six patients (five males, one female, age range 58–80, mean 69 years), with (mean diameter 16.8 mm) HCC poorly visible at US underwent percutaneous microwave ablation under US/CBCT guidance. During general anesthesia apnea control, a contrast- enhanced CBCT was acquired an active tracker....
Image-guided thermal ablations are increasingly applied in the treatment of renal cancers, under guidance ultrasound (US) or computed tomography (CT). Sometimes, multiple needed. The aim present study was to evaluate long-term results patients with mass treated radiofrequency ablation (RFA) both US and CT, a focus on rate. 149 (median age 67 years) underwent RFA from January 2008 June 2015. Median tumor diameter 25 mm (IQR 17-32 mm). follow-up 54 months 44-68). 27 (18.1%) received successful...
Abstract Abdominal recurrences of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) after surgery might represent a challenge for treatment, often requiring difficult surgeries or anticipated systemic therapy. Our aim is to illustrate novel application laser ablation the treatment abdominal RCC. Patients with cancer were treated under ultrasound/computed tomography guidance diode inserted into lesion through thin 21-G needle. A fixed 3-W power protocol was used, changing illumination time according dimension and...
Purpose To assess the capability of ultrasound-computed tomography (US-CT) fusion imaging to guide a precise targeting renal tumors invisible or poorly visible with USMaterials and methods From 2016 inconspicuous/invisible at US were treated our institution guidance US/CT in room equipped CT scanner. Feasibility procedure, accuracy targeting, complications, technique efficacy evaluated.Results Of 227 patients from March 2020, 91 (65 males 26 females, mean age 68.5 ± 10.1 years) 97 lesions...
Background: Early-phase clinical trials offer a unique opportunity for patients with cancer. These often mandate biopsies to collect tumor tissue research purposes, requiring undergo invasive procedures. Some molecular prescreening, but the success of these analyses relies on quality and quantity tested materials. Additionally, bioptic procedures may result in complications. Methods: We retrospectively examined records referred Early Drug Development (EDD) Unit European Institute Oncology...
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is one of the most frequently diagnosed tumors and a leading cause death. The high risk local recurrence distant metastases represent significant clinical issue. Different image-guided ablation techniques can be applied for their treatment as an alternative to surgery, radiotherapy or systemic treatments. A retrospective analysis was conducted at our institution, including total number 34 RCC patients 44 recurrent in different locations (kidney, lung, adrenal...
Renal artery aneurysm is a rare disorder with high mortality rate in the event of rupture, most frequent complication, which can also occur lesions smaller than those indicated for treatment by current criteria. Surgery still first-line treatment, although growing trend toward endovascular management visceral aneurysms has emerged because efficacy and low invasiveness that been demonstrated several authors. Treatment wide-necked and, depending on location, at renal bifurcations or distal...
Abstract Objectives Oligometastatic colorectal cancer benefits of locoregional treatments but data concerning microwave ablation (MWA) are limited and interactions with systemic therapy still debated. The aim this study is to evaluate safety effectiveness Thermosphere™ MWA (T-MWA) liver metastases (CLM) factors affecting local tumor progression-free survival (LTPFS). Methods In multi-institutional retrospective (January 2015–September 2019), patients who underwent T-MWA for CLM were...
Abstract Approximately 25% of colorectal cancers patients will develop hepatic metastases in the course their disease. Surgical resection remains first treatment choice for these patients, when feasible. However, only approximately 30% metastatic lesions are resectable at time diagnosis. Thermal ablations have played an increasing role over last few decades palliative and curative setting liver (CRLMs) nonsurgical candidates with a liver-predominant Several different techniques been used to...
