Prognostic Value of Tumor Markers in Gastric Cancer: A Tertiary Cancer Centre Experience.

Objectives: Gastric cancer is a heterogeneous malignancy in terms of stage-wise prognosis. This study aimed at finding any prognostic significance of preoperative carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and cancer antigen (CA) 19-9 in resectable gastric cancer.

Methods: A total of 57 patients at Kidwai Memorial Institute of Oncology, Bengaluru, India from January 2022 to March 2023 were included in this observational prospective study.

A Study of Morphological Characteristics of Lung Fissures and Trachea in the Indian Population.

Unlabelled: Tracheal length and lung anatomy have been rarely studied; however, the anatomy of the lung has been shown to vary significantly. Moreover, the surgery regarding trachea are few, and hence the surgeons do not have extensive experience in the trachea.

Objective: We aimed to study the variations of the lung anatomy and the relation between tracheal length and body height in the Indian population.

Reverse Axillary Mapping in Breast Cancer Using Blue Dye: A Tertiary Setup Experience.

The concept of reverse axillary mapping originated with the main purpose of reducing lymphedema. In this study, we test the advantage of reverse axillary mapping to delineate the arm-draining lymph nodes and their involvement in various stages of breast carcinoma. In this study, we also attempt to redefine the template for axillary dissection in breast cancer.
