We aimed to investigate changes in volume and MRI T2-weighted intensity desmoid-type fibromatosis (DF) receiving methotrexate plus vinca-alkaloids (MTX-VA) at Istituto Nazionale dei Tumori, Milan.All cases of sporadic DF treated with MTX-VA from 1999 2019 were reviewed. MRIs baseline, 6 12 months chemotherapy treatment withdrawal retrospectively reviewed, contouring the tumor lesion measuring diameters, volume, mean T2-signal (normalized muscle) changes. These parameters also evaluated...
Background: Implant-based breast reconstruction in the setting of radiotherapy often leads to higher complications rates (mainly capsular contracture and wound dehiscence) poor cosmetic outcomes. We hypothesized that combination pulsed-electron avalanche knife (PEAK) PlasmaBlade (a pulsed radiofrequency electrosurgery) acellular dermal matrix Veritas® postmastectomy implant-based could result lower rate, better reconstructive results, patient satisfaction. Methods: A prospective...
