Indeterminate follicular thyroid lesions (Thyr 3A and 3B) account for 10% to 30% of all cytopathologic diagnoses, their unpredictable behavior represents a hard clinical challenge. The possibility preoperatively predict malignancy is largely advocated establish tailored surgery, preventing diagnostic thyroidectomy. We analyzed the role neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte (PLR) lymphocyte-to-monocyte (LMR) as prognostic factors indeterminate nodules. In patients...
Background and Objectives: Although breast surgery has undergone a drastic de-escalation in recent decades, axillary dissection is still indicated some selected cases. Unfortunately, 3-85% of cases, complications such as seroma formation occur, highlighting the need for more accurate hemostasis systems. The aim this study to evaluate effectiveness absorbable polysaccharide hemostatic HaemocerTM preventing postoperative seroma. Materials Methods: Patients referred two centers diagnosed cancer...
Background and Objectives: With the increasing life expectancy, frequency of total thyroidectomies in elderly patients has risen, raising concerns regarding hemorrhage recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy compared to general population. Therefore, considering frequent alteration coagulation status such patients, innovative methods able reach an accurate hemostasis appear highly desirable. This retrospective multicentric study aimed compare postoperative outcomes treated with conventional Harmonic...
The aim of these evidence-based guidelines is to present a consensus position from members the Italian Unitary Society Colon-Proctology (Società Italiana Unitaria di Colon-Proctologia, SIUCP) on diagnosis and management hemorrhoidal disease, with goal guiding physicians in choice best treatment option. A panel experts was charged by Board SIUCP develop key questions main topics related disease perform an accurate comprehensive literature search each topic, order provide answers summarize...
Background: Breast localization plays a key role in early breast cancer (BC) surgery. The current gold standard is wire-guided (WGL), despite the known disadvantages. patients often experience anxiety and discomfort due metallic wire placed breast, surgeons are compelled to perform surgery on same day as radiological release of prevent migrations or breakages. Various wireless systems have been proposed alternative WGL. LOCalizerTM offers advantage providing exact distance from marker called...
Background: Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNETs) represent a rare subset of pancreatic cancer. Functional cause hormonal changes and clinical syndromes, while non-functional ones are often diagnosed late. Surgical management needs multidisciplinary planning, involving enucleation, distal pancreatectomy with or without spleen preservation, central pancreatectomy, pancreaticoduodenectomy total pancreatectomy. Minimally invasive approaches have increased in the last decade compared to open...
Background: Leiomyosarcoma (LMS) originating from the adrenal gland is exceedingly rare, constituting a minute fraction of soft tissue sarcomas. Due to its rarity, with less than 50 documented cases in English medical literature, diagnosis and management LMS remain challenging. The aim this study was perform review order evaluate prognosis these rare cancers report our specific case. Methods: A systematic literature conducted using PubMed, Web Science, Google Scholar, Scopus databases, up...
Cancers of unknown primary (CUPs) are a heterogeneous group tumors characterized by difficult diagnosis. The primitive tumor remains unknown, whereas metastases the most common manifestation. Occult male breast cancers very rare types CUPs. present study describes case 64‑year‑old man affected CUP presumed mammary origin. aim article and review was to focus on their management. To best our knowledge, only thirteen cases have been reported in literature. Because no specific guidelines...
Background: Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pNETs) represents a rare subset of pancreatic cancer. Functional caused hormonal changes and clinical syndromes, while non-functional ones are often diagnosed late. Surgical management need multidisciplinary planning, involving enucleation, distal pancreatectomy with or without spleen preserving, cen-tral pancreatectomy, pancreaticoduodectomy total pancreatectomy. Minimally invasive ap-proach increased in the last decade compared to open...
Colorectal cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide, with approximately 1.9 million new cases and over 935,000 in 2020. Right-sided colon cancer, subset colorectal represents significant health burden. Laparoscopic surgery has significantly improved postoperative recovery. The superiority one approach or landmark another still argued about due to the lack large-scale prospective studies. However, deep understanding both anatomical variation characteristics each extreme...
Background. Obesity is a prevalent condition associated with various comorbidities, impacting mortality, fertility, and quality of life. Its relationship type 2 diabetes mellitus (DMII) well established, nearly 44% prevalence. Bariatric surgery has proven crucial for treating both obesity DMII. The comparison between surgical techniques, such as sleeve gastrectomy (SG) one anastomosis gastric bypass (OAGB), remains controversial in terms glycemic control efficacy. This retrospective study...
Background: Local wound complications are among the most relevant sequelae after an abdominoperineal resection (APR) for low rectal cancer. One of proposed techniques to improve postoperative recovery and accelerate initiation adjuvant chemotherapy is mesh reinforcement perineal wound. The aim current study compare surgical oncological outcomes APR performed with a biosynthetic reconstruction versus conventional procedure. Methods: From 2015 2020, in two tertiary centres, outcomes, events...
