Clinical application of magnetic resonance lymphangiography in the vascularized omental lymph nodes transfer with or without lymphaticovenous anastomosis for cancer-related lower extremity lymphedema
CONCLUSIONS: The precision evaluation of inguinal lymph nodes and lower extremities lymphatic system through MRL using VOLT can provide surgeons with a comprehensive understanding and reliable evidence for the treatment of cancer-related lower extremity lymphedema.PMID:37711785 | PMC:PMC10498210 | DOI:10.21037/qims-22-1443

Aortoenteric fistulae and their multidisciplinary approach
Cir Cir. 2023;91(4):571-575. doi: 10.24875/CIRU.21000702.ABSTRACTAortoenteric fistula is an uncommun life-threatening condition which remains associated with significant morbidity and mortality. It can be primary (aneurysm, neoplasms, radiation therapy, infection) or secondary to vascular prosthesis. Early diagnosis and aggressive surgical treatment are very important to achieve optimal outcomes in these patients. The aim of this article is to highlight the importance of early diagnosis and multidisciplinary approach of aortoenteric fistula through the presentation of a clinical case.PMID:37677950 | DOI:10.24875/CIRU.21000702

Intraoperative Radiation Therapy as a Safe Alternative to Whole Breast Radiation for Treatment of Minimally Invasive Breast Cancers: A Retrospective Cohort Study
CONCLUSIONS: IORT exposure did not confer higher rates of complications and the local recurrence rate mirrored that of the general population undergoing lumpectomy and WBRT. This study demonstrates the need for equitable treatment options based on individual needs: IORT is a safe alternative to WBRT in certain subpopulations, especially those with physical, social, or personal limitations preventing participation in a 3- to 7-week time commitment of WBRT.PMID:37522359 | DOI:10.1177/00031348231192067

Titanium plates salvage in irradiated facial areas with the lipomodeling technique
We present two clinical cases of patients who had a facial reconstruction using a titanium plate associated with a locoregional soft tissue flap, and who presented a near-exposed plate a few years after the first surgery and adjuvant radiation therapy. In order to prevent plate exposure, we performed several lipomodeling sessions between skin and plate. Our results are very encouraging, with no plate exposure and thickening of the soft tissues which cover the plate at 10-years follow-up. The knowledge of the possibility to use fat grafting transfer could therefore lead to a strong return to the use of titanium plates in fa...

Identification of Populations at Risk for "Choosing Un-Wisely": A SEER Population-Based Study
The objective was to evaluate factors associated with axillary surgery in breast cancer patients meeting criteria for sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) omission and identify potential disparities.METHODS: Female patients age ≥70 years with cT1-2N0M0, ER+, HER2-negative breast cancer diagnosed after publication of the Choosing Wisely recommendations, between 2016 and 2019, were identified from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database. Patient demographics and tumor characteristics associated with axillary surgery were analyzed.RESULTS: Of the 31 756 patients meeting omission criteria, 25 771 (81.2%)...
