Introduction: Innovations in 3D spatial technology and augmented reality imaging driven by digital high-tech industrial science have accelerated experimental advances breast cancer the development of medical procedures aimed to reduce invasiveness. Presentation case: A 57-year-old post-menopausal woman presented with screen-detected left-sided cancer. After undergoing all staging pre-operative studies patient was proposed for conservative surgery tumor localization. During surgery, an...
The deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) is the most commonly used free flap in mastectomy reconstruction.Preoperative imaging techniques are routinely to detect location, diameter and course of perforators, with direct intervention from team, who subsequently draw a chart that will help surgeons choosing best vascular support for reconstruction.In this work, feasibility using computer software preoperative planning 40 patients proposed breast reconstruction DIEP evaluated first time....
Increasingly frequent and severe droughts challenge urban water supply managers worldwide. Measures to guarantee reliability security, such as infrastructure investments temporary restriction conservation, can exacerbate financial risk for utilities. In response, utilities often utilize surcharges - increases in prices increase revenues during mitigate their risk.  However, cities where challenges are compounded by high social inequality, these measures may raise the costs of...
Chemotherapy remains the mainstay in most high-risk breast cancer (BC) settings, with several equivalent options of treatment. However, efficacy each treatment varies between patients and there is currently no test to determine which option will be effective for individual patient. Here, we developed a fast in-vivo BC therapy screening: zebrafish patient-derived-xenograft model (zAvatars), where results can obtained just 10 days. To predictive value zAvatars performed preclinical study, were...
Axillary staging in patients with complete response after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is still controversial. Our objective was to test tattoo alone and subsequentially plus clip as markers the targeted axillary dissection of ycN0 patients.Prospective cohort cT1-T3, cN1 (proven histologically), M0 scheduled receive NAC. Exclusion criteria were lobular histology, prior surgery, clinical N2/3. In 1 this positive node (Neotarget node) tattooed at diagnosis. If ycN0, a performed. After an...

Phyllodes tumors are rare fibroepithelial lesions that count for 0.3-1% of all primary breast tumors. Telling the difference between phyllodes and giant juvenile fibroadenomas, rarely affect adolescent young women, is difficult but importance because resection with margins mainstay treatment We report a clinical case an eighteen-year-old female patient, past history left lump excision four years before, classified as “juvenile fibroadenoma”. In early 2015, she was referred to consultation by...
