Nutritional assessment of Chinese gynecologic cancer survivors with post-surgical lower limb lymphedema: a cross-sectional study.

Objective: This study aims to evaluate the nutritional status of Chinese gynecologic cancer survivors with post-surgical lower limb lymphedema (LLL) by analyzing serum albumin levels and the prognostic nutritional index (PNI).

Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted at two Chinese medical centers. The cohort comprised 155 gynecologic cancer survivors who developed symptomatic unilateral LLL post-surgery, during the period from September 2021 to June 2024.

Case report: Iliac vein rupture during endovascular stenting in radiation-induced iliac venous stenosis.

Only a few case reports in the medical literature describe radiation-induced iliac vein stenosis and endovascular therapy. We present a case of left external iliac vein stenosis resulting from radiotherapy for cervical cancer in which the iliac vein ruptured during the standard iliac vein stenting procedure. The emergency condition was resolved with the implantation of a covered stent and resuscitation with crystalloid and blood transfusion.
