Filter by:Modified radical mastectomy (MRM) is the most commonly performed surgical procedure in breast cancer patients and is usually associated with severe postoperative pain. The peripheral nerve block techniques were suggested to reduce acuter post-mastectomy pain. The study compared the analgesic efficacy of retrolaminar block (RLB) and ESPB in patients undergoing MRM.
Triple-negative breast carcinoma is characterized by the absence of estrogen receptors, progesterone receptors, and HER2/neu receptors. Carbonic anhydrase IX (CA IX) is a tumor-associated cell surface glycoprotein that is involved in adaptation to hypoxia-induced acidosis and plays a role in cancer progression. This study aimed to investigate CA IX expression in TNBC and its relationship with treatment effect.
A multicenter real-world study was conducted to gather clinicopathological data from patients with HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer who were treated with inetetamab between 2022 and 2023. The study aimed to estimate the progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR), disease control rate (DCR), and adverse events (AEs) associated with inetetamab therapy.
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 accuracy of breast examinations and ultrasonography performed clinically to detect breast mass varies greatly depending on the physician's skill level, and the accuracy of breast examinations by non-experts is particularly low. In this study, we aimed to validate whether the concurrent use of ultrasound sensor technology is an efficient strategy for the purpose of improving the sensitivity of detecting breast masses through breast examination.
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
