Low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm encountered during risk-reducing salpingo-oophorectomy: A case of laparoscopic surgery.

Low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm (LAMN) is a rare epithelial malignancy of the appendix. If it perforates the abdominal cavity, it can cause a serious clinical syndrome called pseudomyxoma peritonei. In the present case, we laparoscopically removed a LAMN encountered during risk-reducing salpingo-oophorectomy (RRSO).

The Role of Mass Media in Promoting the Dual Career of the Performance Athlete.

Background: One of the most pressing problems for athletes is related to the end of their career, a situation that presents serious challenges in the attempt to enter the labor market in the absence of an adequate education. Despite the fact that successful sports students encounter some problems in terms of time allocated to school, consistent work will ultimately provide them with a rewarding career and, most importantly, a relevant social role to inspire other athletes who are at the beginning of their careers. A successful approach to dual career cannot take place if athletes and their entourage (coaches, parents, teachers) are not aware of its importance.

Impact of lower co-payments on risk-reducing salpingo-oophorectomy and BRCA testing in Japan.

Background: In April 2020, insurance coverage for risk-reducing salpingo-oophorectomy (RRSO) for breast cancer patients with hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) syndrome and BRCA testing were started in Japan.

All results were reclassified according to the 2009 International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) system, and the relation between intraoperative peritoneal cytology results and recurrence and prognosis was examined.
