Gastric cancer after laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding: A case report.

Introduction: Gastric cancer occurring after bariatric and metabolic surgeries is rare. We report a case of gastric cancer that developed at 14 years after laparoscopic adjustable gastric banding.

Presentation Of Case: The patient was an obese 81-year-old woman who underwent LAGB at 14 years prior when her body mass index was 35.

A novel MRI-based predictive index can identify patients suitable for preservation of the nipple-areola complex in breast reconstructive surgery.

Introduction: Accurately predicting nipple-areola complex (NAC) involvement in breast cancer is necessary for identifying patients who may be candidates for a nipple-sparing mastectomy. Although multiple risk factors are indicated in the guidelines, it is difficult to predict NAC involvement (NAC-i) preoperatively even if these factors are evaluated individually. This study aimed to develop a more accurate and practical preoperative NAC-i prediction model using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
