Oncoplastic Volume Displacement Surgical Techniques For Early Primary Breast Cancer: A Case Series.

Oncoplastic breast surgery (OPS) is a new strategy for expanding breast-conserving surgical options, lowering mastectomies rates, and preventing deformities. OPS is based on the use of plastic surgical reconstruction after breast cancer removal. The study aims to assess volume displacement oncoplastic procedures for early primary breast cancer in terms of recurrence and cosmoses.

Expanding Scope About Factors Influencing Seroma Formation After Breast Cancer Surgery.

Objectives: To determine the incidence of seroma formation after breast cancer surgery, and its association with common risk factors.

Method: The correlationalstudy was conducted at the General Surgery department of Kafrelsheikh University Hospital, Egypt, from March 2020 to March 2022 and comprised patients having breast cancerstage I, II or III, as per the Tumour Node-Metastasis classification, who were scheduled to undergo modified radical mastectomy, breast conserving surgery or reconstructive surgery. Baseline, intraoperative and postoperative data was collected on a proforma.

Safe Stapleless Laparoscopic Splenectomy; Use Of Hem-O-Lok To Control The Splenic Hilum.

Objectives: To evaluate Hem-o-Lok polymer clips' feasibility, safety and cost-effectiveness in controlling the splenic pedicle during paediatric laparoscopic splenectomy.

Method: The prospective study was conducted from May 2019 to December 2021 at Kafrelsheikh University Hospital, Egypt, and comprised children of either gender aged <18 years who had benign haematological diseases and were indicated for laparoscopic splenectomy. During the procedure, Hem-o-Lok clips were used for controlling the splenic pedicle.

Clinical Significance Of Baseline And Post-Treatment CXCR1 Expression In Women With Breast Cancer Having Received Neoadjuvant Chemo Therapy.

Objectives: To examine the chemokine receptor type 1 expression in breast cancer tissues before and after neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and its relationship with pathological response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy and other clinical variables.

Method: The prospective study was conducted at Kafrelsheikh University Hospital, Egypt, from November 2018 to March 2021, and comprised female patients with new histopathologically proven breast cancer eligible for chemotherapy. Paraffin blocks of tumourspecimens were stained immunohistochemically using concentrated rabbit anti-human chemokine receptor type 1 polyclonal antibody kits.

Effect Of Laparoscopic Sleeve Gastrectomy On Vitamin D, Parathormone Hormone, And Serum Calcium Levels.

Objectives: To evaluate the effect of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy on vitamin D status, parathyroid hormone,serum calcium and the effectiveness of vitamin D supplementation.

Method: The prospective study was conducted at the General Surgery Department of Kafrelsheikh University Hospital, Egypt, in November 2019, and comprised morbidly obese patients of either gender who were managed with laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy. Serum levels of vitamin D, calcium and parathyroid hormone were assessed at baseline and at 6 and 12 months after the surgery.

A Clinical Score For Predicting Complications Following Breast Reduction.

Objectives: To establish a clinical score for morbidity prediction based on patient-related risk factors after breast reduction surgery.

Method: The retrospective study was conducted at the Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Kafrelsheikh University Hospital, Egypt, and comprised data of female patients with bilateral macromastia who underwent breast reduction, using the inferior pedicle invertedT technique between February 2019 and June 2020. After data retrieval, risk factors and complications were documented and related to the patients'risk factors Data was analysed using SPSS 20.

Needlescopic Primary Paediatric Inguinal Hernia Repair By Hernia Sac Disconnection And Peritoneal Closure.

Objectives: To evaluate the short-term outcome of the needlescopic hernia sac disconnection and peritoneal closure in the treatment of primary paediatric inguinal hernia.

Method: The prospective study was conducted from April 2019 to April 2021 at the Paediatric Surgery Unit of the General Surgery Department at Kafrelsheikh University Hospital, Egypt, and comprised patients aged 6-144 months having uncomplicated paediatric inguinal hernia. The patients were subjected to needlescopic hernia sac disconnection and peritoneal closure.

Outcomes Of Mesh Fixation Versus Non Fixation In Laparoscopic Transabdominal Preperitoneal Inguinal Hernia Repair: A Randomized Clinical Study.

Objectives: The present study aimed to compare the results of laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) inguinal hernia repair with and without mesh fixation regarding postoperative pain, recurrence, operative time, and complications.

Methods: This randomized controlled clinical trial included 100 patients who underwent TAPP inguinal hernia with mesh fixation (group A) or a fixation-free procedure (group B) for early onset inguinal hernia at the General Surgery Department, Kafrelsheikh University Hospital, from January 2021 to June 2022.

Results: The parameters for pain assessment (NRS) in the first week (mean 7 (5 - 8)), the first month (mean 3 (1 - 5)), and after three months(mean 0 - (70% of patients), (mean 1- (30% of patients) were significantly higher in the fixation group (p<0.

Penile torsion repair in children following a ladder step: simpler steps are usually sufficient.

Objective: To evaluate the correction of different degrees of penile torsion following a ladder step so that simpler steps are used whenever possible. This can avoid the morbidity and complications of complex procedures.

Patients And Methods: Cases of congenital and acquired penile torsion were repaired on a ladder step basis irrespective of the degree of torsion, starting with degloving and skin realignment, then a dorsal dartos flap and finally corporopexy.
