Breast amyloidosis associated with Sj ögren syndrome: A diagnostic pitfall in breast pathology
CONCLUSION: Although rare, an awareness of the clinicopathologic characteristics of this easily overlooked entity is of great importance for breast surgeons.PMID:38108337 | DOI:10.3233/BD-230006 (Source: Breast Disease)

Bilateral breast cancer and the influence of body mass index in clinicopathological features and overall survival
CONCLUSIONS: Our results reveal the same receptor expression between contralateral tumours. Also, most tumours share the same histological type. When stratified by BMI, we observed a tendency for overweight women to have improved overall survival.PMID:38108338 | DOI:10.3233/BD-230014 (Source: Breast Disease)

Breast carcinoma presenting with upper limb lymphedema - A rare case
This report describes the case of a 50-year-old lady with right breast carcinoma who presented with right upper limb lymphedema. Surprisingly, she did not have any bulky axillary lymphadenopathy that could have accounted for lymphedema of the upper limb, but a suspicious breast mass was present on clinical examination. Diagnosis of breast cancer on clinical examination can be challenging in such patients due to breast edema and careful imaging of the breast and axilla with appropriate imaging tools (mammogram, ultrasound, MRI, PET mammography) should be resorted to before excluding malignancy. Lymphoscintigraphy confirmed ...

Endoscopy-assisted breast conservation surgery (E-BCS) vs conventional breast conservation surgery (C-BCS) technique for the management of early breast cancer: A systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSION: Our study suggests that E-BCS offers a shorter incision length and better cosmetic outcome compared with C-BCS in the treatment of early breast cancer. However, E-BCS requires a longer operation time and has greater drainage volume. Further studies are needed to confirm these findings.PMID:38108340 | DOI:10.3233/BD-230023 (Source: Breast Disease)

Can paternal environmental experiences affect the breast cancer risk in offspring? A systematic review
CONCLUSION: Studies considered in this article show that fathers' age at the time of delivery of the child, dietary habits, overweight and occupational factors can affect the incidence of BC risk in the next generation.PMID:38073366 | DOI:10.3233/BD-220062 (Source: Breast Disease)

Eribulin in metastatic breast cancer: Real world data
CONCLUSIONS: The median PFS was similar to that reported previously, with lower OS. There was a tendency to achieve better results when eribulin was used earlier. Eribulin is a less well-tolerated drug than published literature.PMID:38073367 | DOI:10.3233/BD-230031 (Source: Breast Disease)

Conventional standard-sized bra with prosthesis or patient's bra with customized hand-knitted external prosthesis after mastectomy: Mixed-methods evaluation of patients' preferences
CONCLUSION: Customized external breast prostheses could be an alternative to the conventional ones for breast cancer patients with mastectomy, with additional benefits of less sweating, more comfort and less dislodgement perceived.PMID:38073368 | DOI:10.3233/BD-230040 (Source: Breast Disease)
