Published: January 2002

Infusion of the breast with a tumescent solution of dilute epinephrine hydrochloride in lactated Ringer solution in patients undergoing modified radical mastectomy allows the procedure to be performed rapidly with scalpel dissection and minimal blood loss. The classic technique of modified radical mastectomy with addition of the tumescent solution is described herein.

Although two examples of σ-bonded -bent [RSbSbR] (R = bulky organo- or Ga-groups) that formally contain the Sb radical trianion moiety are known in p-block chemistry, d- or f-element Sb radical trianion complexes, with or without R-substituents, have remained elusive. Here, we report that reduction of a 77:23 mix of [{Th(Tren)}(μ-η:η-Sb)] (, Tren = {N(CHCHNSiPr)}):[{Th(Tren)}(μ-SbH)] () with 1.5 equiv of KC in the presence of 1.

The performance of energetic coordination compounds (ECCs) is influenced by their components and structure. Modifying the chemical structure of the ligands can balance the detonation performance and sensitivity. This study introduced Cu(3-PZCA)(ClO) () and Cu(2-IZCA)(ClO) (), using 3-PZCA and 2-IZCA as ligands.

Background/objectives: Photoimmunotherapy (PIT) is an innovative approach for the targeted therapy of cancer. In PIT, photosensitizer dyes are conjugated to tumor-specific antibodies for targeted delivery into cancer cells. Upon irradiation with visible light, the photosensitizer dye is activated and induces cancer-specific cell death.

Background: Early-stage breast cancer requires effective surgical interventions. This meta-analysis compares the therapeutic efficacy of endoscopic minimally invasive surgery (EMIS) with traditional surgery, such as modified radical mastectomy.

Methods: Following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines and the Patient, Intervention, Comparison, Outcome model, we systematically searched PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library until July 19, 2023.

Introduction: Breast cancer is the most common cancer in females. Surgery is the gold standard therapy, with modified radical mastectomy (MRM) being the most commonly performed procedure for breast cancer. Management of postoperative pain after MRM poses a clinical challenge and hence receives utmost priority.
