Filter by:Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) for early-stage breast cancer is associated with an increased risk of locoregional recurrence (LRR). However, few studies have conducted subgroup analyses of patients with various molecular subtypes, which are one of the determinant factors for treatments. The aim of the study is to investigate whether the risk of LRR after NACT varies across tumor subtypes. The investigators retrospectively reviewed the medical records of female breast cancer patients who underwent breast-conserving surgery at three institutions between January 1, 2004, and Dec 31, 2018.
The population of transgender and gender-diverse (TGD) persons in Wisconsin and the U.S. is steadily increasing. As this population grows, the number of individuals seeking gender-affirming therapies, including gender-affirming operations and gender-affirming hormone therapy, is also growing. An example of gender-affirming surgery is chest masculinization surgery, in which most breast tissue is removed in a person assigned female or intersex at birth to allow the chest to appear masculine. Gender-affirming chest masculinization surgery is not generally considered equivalent to an oncologic mastectomy, which aims to removal all breast tissue for future breast cancer reduction or current breast cancer treatment. The goals of this investigation are to 1) determine the percent of TGD persons considering chest masculinization surgery who have an elevated lifetime risk of breast cancer development and/or a pathogenic genetic mutation; 2) measure the percent who are at risk and choose to undergo risk-reducing mastectomies as part of chest masculinization surgery; and 3) assess and compare self-perceived breast cancer risk with calculated risk. The results of this study will substantially inform TGD patients and surgeons on the utility of personalized breast cancer risk assessment prior to chest masculinization surgery and the accuracy of self-perceived breast cancer risk in TGD persons.
Objective: To evaluate the impact of chemotherapy on periodontal conditions, hematology, and salivary flow in patients with breast cancer and gingivitis, after basic periodontal therapy (BPT). Methods: They were divided into patients with breast cancer and gingivitis (BC/G =20); and patients without cancer with gingivitis (G=20). Clinical parameters [Plaque Index (PI), bleeding on probing (BOP), Probing Depth (PS), Clinical Attachment Level (CAL)], hematological parameters (complete blood count), and salivary flow were evaluated at baseline, 6, 12 and 24 weeks.
This randomized trial explored whether digital media (videos and chatbots) used for patient education could more effectively reduce anxiety in breast cancer patients during radiation therapy, compared to traditional paper-based methods. Post-surgery breast cancer patients scheduled for radiation therapy were assigned to groups receiving treatment information through different media combinations. The study aimed to assess whether these modern tools more effectively ease anxiety, thus potentially improving patient compliance and treatment experience.
This study evaluates Improving the Breast Cancer Care Delivery Model for Sex and Gender Minority (INTENDED for SGM) in identifying the patient, support person and provider barriers to quality care in SGM breast/chest cancer survivors.
Evaluate the efficacy and safety of Disitamb Vedotin in patients with HER2-positive or HER2-low expressing, locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer
Regional anesthesia and local anesthetics have proven anti-inflammatory and antitumor effects as well as their analgesic properties. On this trial, the investigators are searching anesthetic techniques affect on the leukocyte, platelet-lymphocyte count and ratios, total amount of opioids used, and discharge times in patients who will undergo wire localized lumpectomy operation.
The aim of the study was to develop and validate a nomogram to assess axillary pathological complete response (pCR) in patients with initially lymph node-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer and test its performance in guiding patient selection for sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) following neoadjuvant systemic therapy (NST).
Nowadays, the incidence of breast cancer is the first number of malignant tumors, and the primary treatment method is surgery.With the development of medical technology and concept, radical mastectomy combined breast reconstruction are becoming more and more popular.But the reconstruction caused greater trauma and more severe postoperative pain.ESPB is a new nerve block method which thought to reduce pain after thoracic and breast surgery.However, there are few studies on radical mastectomy combined breast reconstruction. So, this randomized controlled study is conducted to explore its impact on postoperative pain and thus provide more data guidance for clinical.
The "mastectomy skin reducing" is a surgical procedure involving the removal of the mammary gland and, simultaneously, reducing the excess skin to enhance the aesthetic appearance in breast reconstruction. This technique is commonly used in patients with an excessive amount of residual skin after breast tissue removal, such as following a mastectomy for breast cancer treatment or prophylactic purposes (in patients at high risk of breast carcinoma due to family history and/or mutations in the Breast Cancers genes ). The goal of mastectomy skin reducing is to create a breast reconstruction that appears natural and aesthetically harmonious by minimizing excess skin. Excess skin can be removed in two main ways: as a conventional ellipse around the nipple-areola complex or, preferably, as part of an inverted "T"-shaped incision, commonly used in reduction mammoplasty. This procedure adheres to oncological principles of skin-conserving mastectomy and also incorporates a lower dermal flap, used to create a dermo-muscular pocket that reinforces the coverage of the prosthetic implant. The primary indication for mastectomy skin reducing is when a patient has excessively large (hypertrophic) and sagging (ptotic) breasts. In these cases, removing excess skin and breast tissue during mastectomy contributes to creating a solid foundation for breast reconstruction and improving the aesthetics of the reconstructed breast. The purpose of this retrospective study is to provide accurate data on the clinical outcomes of mastectomy skin reducing performed at the European Oncology Institute in Milan. This study is part of a larger project involving patients with breast cancer and/or carriers of mutations in the Breast Cancer genes who have undergone mastectomy skin reducing in the last 5 years.
