Accuracy of sentinel lymph node biopsy in male breast cancer: Systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) is commonly used in the surgical management of male breast cancer. Contrary to female breast cancer, limited data exist about its performance in male breast cancer. The objective of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to evaluate the SLNB accuracy in male breast cancer.

A pre-operative radiological score to predict lymph node metastasis in advanced epithelial ovarian cancer.

Background: Lymphadenectomy is part of cytoreductive surgery for patients with advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (AEOC) in case of abnormal lymph nodes before and during surgery. The aim of this study was to develop and validate a pre-operative radiological score to predict pelvic and/or para-aortic lymph node metastasis (LNM) in patients with AEOC undergoing cytoreductive surgery.

Methods: We conducted a multicentre retrospective study.

Does hyaluronic acid gel reduce intrauterine adhesions after dilation and curettage in women with miscarriage? A Multicentric randomized controlled trial (HYFACO Study).

Background: Miscarriage is a frequent problem that requires dilation and curettage in 30% of cases. This routine surgery may lead to intrauterine adhesions and severe infertility. Hyaluronic acid gel is known to reduce intrauterine adhesions after hysteroscopic surgery.

Preoperative CT or PET/CT to Assess Pelvic and Para-Aortic Lymph Node Status in Epithelial Ovarian Cancer? A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

In advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), the LION trial restricted lymphadenectomy indication to patients with suspect lymph nodes before and during surgery. Preoperative imaging is used to assess lymph node status, and particularly CT and PET/CT. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of preoperative CT and PET/CT to detect lymph node metastasis (LNM) in patients with EOC; Methods: Databases were searched from January 1990 to May 2019 for studies that evaluated the diagnostic accuracy of preoperative CT and PET/CT to detect LNM in patients with EOC with histology as the gold standard.

Using a new diagnostic tool to predict lymph node metastasis in advanced epithelial ovarian cancer leads to simple lymphadenectomy decision rules: A multicentre study from the FRANCOGYN group.

Objective: The aim of this study was to develop a new diagnostic tool to predict lymph node metastasis (LNM) in patients with advanced epithelial ovarian cancer undergoing primary cytoreductive surgery.

Materials And Method: The FRANCOGYN group's multicenter retrospective ovarian cancer cohort furnished the patient population on which we developed a logistic regression model. The prediction model equation enabled us to create LNM risk groups with simple lymphadenectomy decision rules associated with a user-friendly free interactive web application called shinyLNM.

[Para-arortic lymhadenectomy and pelvic gynecological cancers: Extraperitoneal or transperitoneal laparoscopy?].

Introduction: Para-aortic lymphadenectomy plays a fundamental role in the surgical management of pelvic gynecological cancers. Two laparoscopic approaches exist: the transperitoneal (TP) and the extraperitoneal (EP). The aim of this study was to compare these 2 approaches in terms of surgical outcomes, specially the number of removed lymph nodes according to the surgical technique, and morbidity.

Uterine metastasis from invasive ductal breast carcinoma: A case report with literature review.

Breast cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in women, and most breast cancer related deaths are due to metastases. Uterine metastases from breast cancer are uncommon and rarely reported in the literature. We described the case of a 50 years-old-woman who developed a uterine metastasis, 6 years after the diagnosis of an invasive ductal breast carcinoma.

Intraoperative Clinical Examination for Assessing Pelvic and Para-Aortic Lymph Node Involvement in Advanced Epithelial Ovarian Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

After the publication of the Lymphadenectomy in Ovarian Neoplasms (LION) trial results, lymphadenectomy in advanced epithelial ovarian cancer with primary complete cytoreductive surgery is considered indicated only for women with suspicious lymph nodes. The aim of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of intraoperative clinical examination for detecting lymph node metastases in patients with advanced epithelial ovarian cancer during primary complete cytoreductive surgery. MEDLINE, EMBASE, Web of Science and the Cochrane Library were searched for January 1990 to May 2019 for studies evaluating the diagnostic accuracy of intraoperative clinical examination for detecting lymph node metastases in patients with advanced epithelial ovarian cancer during primary complete cytoreductive surgery, with histology as the gold standard.

A Pre-operative Score to Discriminate Fibroepithelial Lesions of the Breast: Phyllode Tumor or Fibroadenoma?

Background/aim: Fibroepithelial lesions (FEL) of the breast include fibroadenomas and phyllodes tumors (PT). Their histologic characteristics on core needle biopsy can overlap, while their clinical management is different. The aim of this study was to develop and to validate a pre-operative score for the diagnosis of PT with surgical decision rules.

Cesarean scar pregnancy with deep serosal invasion at 16 weeks: Uterus-sparing surgery with posterior hysterotomy after transcatheter arterial embolization.

We report a case of cesarean scar pregnancy at 16 weeks. Magnetic resonance imaging confirmed the isthmic ectopic location with an empty fundus and a high suspicion of placental invasion to the anterior myometrium. Because of pelvic pain, bleeding and the major risks of hysterectomy, a decision was made to terminate the pregnancy.

Hippocampal Radial Glial Subtypes and Their Neurogenic Potential in Human Fetuses and Healthy and Alzheimer's Disease Adults.

Neuropathological conditions might affect adult granulogenesis in the adult human dentate gyrus. However, radial glial cells (RGCs) have not been well characterized during human development and aging. We have previously described progenitor and neuronal layer establishment in the hippocampal pyramidal layer and dentate gyrus from embryonic life until mid-gestation.

Low pressure gynecological laparoscopy (7mmHg) with AirSeal System versus a standard insufflation (15mmHg): A pilot study in 60 patients.

Objectives: To evaluate feasibility of performing benign gynecologic pathology low pressure (7mmHg) laparoscopy (LPL) with AirSeal system and to study benefits in terms of postoperative pain, when compared to a standard insufflation group (15mmHg).

Materials And Methods: In this prospective randomized pilot study, 60 patients had laparoscopy for gynecologic benign pathology: 30 with 7mmHg and AirSeal system, and 30 with 15mmHg standard insufflator. The primary endpoint was incidence of shoulder pain.

Good prognosis of postpartum lower limb sensorimotor deficit: a combined clinical, electrophysiological, and radiological follow-up.

Postpartum lower limb motor and/or sensory deficit is an uncommon obstetrical complication. We aimed to identify its incidence, etiology, and precipitating factors, as well as the neurological prognosis by retrospectively analyzing the successive neurological evaluations, electrophysiological, and MRI data from all the consecutive patients with postpartum motor and/or sensory deficits of the lower limbs referred from the Lariboisière Obstetrical Department to the Lariboisière Neurophysiology Department, from January 2012 to June 2016, as well as data concerning labor and morphological characteristics of mother and baby. Thirteen patients (0.
