Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to evaluate the prevalence of high-grade histological lesions in patients with positive HPV-HR tests and ASC-US cytology, focusing on the impact of specific HPV types.
  • Data was gathered from 298 asymptomatic patients aged 25 to 65 at a hospital between September 2019 and February 2022, comparing those with HPV types 16 and 18 to those without.
  • Results showed that patients with HPV types other than 16 and 18 had significantly fewer high-grade lesions (8.5%) compared to those with HPV 16 or 18 (22.7%), indicating a high likelihood of normal findings in the former group.

Purpose: The Oncotype DX (ODX) test is a commercially available molecular test for breast cancer assay that provides prognostic and predictive breast cancer recurrence information for hormone positive, HER2-negative patients. The aim of this study is to propose a novel methodology to assist physicians in their decision-making.

Methods: A retrospective study between 2012 and 2020 with 333 cases that underwent an ODX assay from three hospitals in the Bourgogne Franche-Comté region (France) was conducted.

Article Synopsis
  • The PIK3CA-related overgrowth spectrum (PROS) includes conditions caused by mosaic variants in the PIK3CA gene, which can also lead to various cancers, including an increased risk of Wilms tumor (WT).
  • A study of 267 PROS patients found a low overall cancer development rate of 2.2%, with an estimated 5.6% probability of cancer by age 45, suggesting the risk of WT in these patients is relatively low.
  • The findings indicate that routine abdominal ultrasound for cancer detection in PROS might not be necessary, and more long-term studies are needed to better understand the risks of different cancers and their connection to PIK3CA variants.

Introduction: Idiopathic granulomatous mastitis (IGM) is a rare chronic inflammatory disease. Neoplastic and infectious etiologies must be ruled out. IGM is a diagnostic challenge for countries with high tuberculosis endemicity like Madagascar since it may clinically and radiologically mimic breast tuberculosis.
