Background: Current guidelines recommend that patients with HER2-low metastatic breast cancer (MBC) receive sequentially two antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs): Sacituzumab Govitecan (SG) and Trastuzumab Deruxtecan (T-DXd), despite a similar payload. However, the effectiveness of one after another is unknown.
Methods: ADC-Low is a multicentre, retrospective study evaluating the efficacy of SG and T-DXd, one after another, with or without intermediary lines of chemotherapy, in patients with HER2-low MBC.
Background: Data suggest an association between positron emission tomography/CT (PET/CT) metabolic metrics and tumor microenvironment in several malignancies, and a potential role of PET/CT to monitor response to immunotherapy.
Objective: To evaluate the correlation between tumor loco-regional extension and tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte infiltration in locally advanced cervical cancer prior to concurrent chemo-radiotherapy.The secondary objective was to assess the association between tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes and PET/CT metabolic metrics.
Objective: This study evaluated the very long-term results of the Carpentier-Edwards pericardial bioprosthesis in the mitral position, with particular attention to structural valve deterioration based on echocardiographic criteria.
Methods: From 1984 to 2016, 648 patients (mean age 68.8 years; 53.

Fistula of the fourth endobrachial pouch, a congenital malformation, can be defined as an abnormal persistence of the canal joining the base of the piriform sinus and the deep surface of the lateral lobe of the thyroid. These fistulae, which have been more clearly understood over the last ten years, still constitute a delicate surgical problem, which is rarely discussed in the literature, based on the detection of their tract at their origin, the piriform sinus. The 8 cases operated at Hôpital Necker since 1981 reveal the variability of their tract, which, according to the authors, warrants an anatomosurgical analysis.

A total of 434 functional évidements of neck were conducted in 313 patients, taking into account all primary localizations. Details of the procedure used are described while emphasizing the need for an évidement tending towards one as complete as a radical operation. Surgery was usually elective (89% of cases) but in 11% considered as essential.

The authors report on 48 patients operated by hemi-laryngo-pharyngectomy for spinous carcinoma of the piriform sinus. They try to precise the indications by analysing the factors influencing survival and relapses. They compare surgery to the other methods.

Use of a moulded aponeurotic graft, shapened and then made rigid by heat and formalin, is a seductive method of tympanic reconstruction because of its simplicity and availability. Indications for and results of the application of this method are analyzed based on experience of 158 cases, with sufficient follow up in 90. The principal indication for use is large perforations, when it is possible to exteriorize the whole canal and almost all the tympanic remains, while doubt exists as to its advantages for treatment of small perforations.
