Filter by: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.
Breast cancer patients in post-operative radiotherapy (RT) often experience acute skin reactions like erythema, pain, itching and oversensitivity. In 2014 a New Zealand randomized controlled trial (RCT) investigated the prophylactic use of safetac-based film, Mepitel Film, on half of the breast during RT compared to cream, resulting in significant differences in skin moist desquamation (0% vs. 26%). Despite changes in treatment modalities in Denmark toward lower total RT doses, the level of RT-induced skin toxicity could still be of great importance for the patients. The aim of this study is patient-reported symptoms and patient-reported experiences with the prophylactic use of Mepitel Film compared to standard cream treatment.
The aim of the present 3-month randomized, placebo-controlled trial was to evaluate whether adherence to Mediterranean Diet (MD) together with melatonin oral treatment or plaebo, would ameliorate Cancer Related Fatigue in Breast Cancer patients receiving chemotherapy treatment.
Higher rates of complications and poorer cosmetic outcomes have been reported after salvage mastectomy and implant-based versus autologous reconstruction in patients previously exposed to radiation therapy (i) on the breast as adjuvant treatment after breast conserving surgery (BCS) or (ii) on thoracic wall for Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL). Nevertheless, selected patients with favourable preoperative soft-tissue assessment may benefit from alloplastic reconstruction and fat grafting that has been suggested as an effective technique to promote the regeneration of irradiated tissues. The aims of this study are to assess: 1. the feasibility of implant-based breast reconstruction and fat grafting after mastectomy (simple mastectomy, nipple-sparing and skin-sparing mastectomy) 2. oncological safety of implant-based breast reconstruction and fat grafting.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of mindfulness-based meditation and yoga on stress, self-esteem, body image and sexual adjustment in breast cancer patients.
This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group study to evaluate the efficacy and safety and Immunogenicity of Vinorelbine Bitartrate Injection in Combination With HS022 and Trastuzumab®.There were 2 parts. Part 1 needs 8 treatment cycles ( at least 24 weeks); Part2 needs 9 treatment cycles (at least 27 weeks).
The goal of this prospective study is to investigate the performance of ultrafast MRI radiomics in classifying histological factors and subtypes of breast cancer compared with standard MRI among radiologists with varying experience. The written informed consent was obtained from all participant. We extracted 1618 radiomic features from ultrafast and standard contrast-enhanced MRI before treatment. Classification of hormonal receptors, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2, and Ki67 status and subtypes was evaluated using the area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve (AUC) with the DeLong test.
We performed this study on a consecutive cohort of women with asymptomatic screen-detected NPBC. The clinicopathological characteristics, 10-year relapse-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) were compared between BCS and Mx patients among different subgroups.
A multicenter, randomized, open-lable, single-dose, two-cycle, double-cross bioequivalence study comparing the pharmacokinetic profile of LY01612 (Doxorubicin hydrochloride liposome injection) and CAELYX® in Chinese subjects with advanced breast cancer
The goal of this prospective study is to develop MRI-based models representing tumor microenvironment in participants with invasive breast cancer. The main purpose of this study is to analyze the association of diffusion-, T2-, and dynamic contrast-enhanced T1-weighted images of 3T MRI before treatment with the immunohistochemical reactivity of tumor microenvironment including the extracellular matrix and immune cells of core-needle biopsy specimens For this purpose, investigators extract 16145 radiomic features from the intratumoral and peritumoral regions on MRI of participants with invasive breast cancer before treatment.
