Introduction: BCG therapy is the standard treatment for bladder tumors that do not infiltrate smooth muscle. Fluoroquinolones for antibiotic prophylaxis are recommended to lessen the risk of BCG infection (BCGitis) with respiratory involvement.
Case Report: This study describes five cases of BCGitis in males, with a median age of 71years [range: 66-77years] having undergone ofloxacin prophylaxis during their BCG therapy for a non-invasive bladder tumor (grade pT1a).
Purpose: Qualitative and quantitative analyzes of retinal arteriolar tortuosity (RAT) in patients with COL4A1 and COL4A2 mutations to identify a tortuosity index (TI) threshold for detecting increased RAT.
Methods: Fifty-two eyes of 28 patients were included. Group 1 included eyes with a normal arteriolar pattern (n=19, 37%), group 2 included eyes with moderately increased arteriolar tortuosity (n=13, 25%), and group 3 included eyes with typical abnormal arteriolar tortuosity (n=20, 38%).
Background: The KBP studies are real-life nationwide, prospective, multicenter cohort studies of patients diagnosed with primary lung cancer that have been conducted in French non-academic public hospitals each decade since 2000.
Methods: Patients were analyzed in three prospective cohorts using the same methodology. In this study, we describe and compare the characteristics and outcomes of patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC), with a focus on treatments in the 2020 cohort.
Background: Management of stage-III-N2 non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) based on a multimodal strategy (surgery or radiotherapycombined with systemic drugs) remains controversial. Patients are treated with a curative intent, and available data suggestprolonged survival after complete resection. However, no consensual definition of "tumor resectability" exists.
