Breast-Conserving Surgery Guided with Magnetic Seeds vs. Wires: A Single-Institution Experience.

Purpose: The aim of this study is to describe our initial experience using magnetic seeds (Magseed) to guide breast-conserving surgery in non-palpable breast lesions and compare the use of magnetic seed with wires to guide breast-conserving surgery in terms of clinical and pathological characteristics.

Methods: We performed a retrospective study including all breast-conserving surgeries for non-palpable breast lesions under 16 mm from June 2018 to May 2021. We compared breast-conserving surgeries guided with magnetic seeds (Magseed) to those guided with wires, analyzing tumor and patient characteristics, surgical time, and pathological results of the surgical specimens.

Pelvic Exenteration in Gynecologic Cancer: La Paz University Hospital Experience.

Background: Pelvic exenteration is an ultraradical surgery involving the en bloc resection of the pelvic organs, including the internal reproductive organs, the distal urinary tract (ureters, bladder, urethra), and/or anorectum. It is mainly applied as a salvage surgery for recurrent gynecologic tumors of any origin (vulva, vagina, cervix, uterine, and also ovary). Our aim was to establish the most favorable cases for this type of surgery by means of a review of our institution experience.
