Ultrasonography is the only morphological exploratory breast examination which is truly valid and inexpensive and may usefully complement clinical examination and mammography which remain the basic and absolutely necessary investigative tools in this pathology. Constant improvement of the spatial resolution of the "barrettes" permits us to characterize anomalies of 3 millimeters. These linear probes are easily manageable, permitting a better ultrasound guiding of breast punctures. The main indications for ultrasonography remain, in addition to the evaluation of any "nodule", the evaluation of disseminated or localized densities, where mammography is less beneficial. If exploratory ultrasonography proves very useful in malignant pathology, it has certainly been most useful in benign diseases, permitting us to determine a precise etiology and a better adjustment of the treatment.

Bifurcating Method for Subcutaneous Indwelling of Nonabsorbable Threads.

January 2025
From the Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Keio University School of Medicine, Tokyo, Japan.
Subcutaneous indwelling of nonabsorbable threads for tissue fixation and tension reduction is often used in plastic surgery and is applied in breast reduction surgery, umbilicoplasty, and in frontalis muscle lifting for congenital ptosis. However, in a few cases, exposure of the indwelling thread necessitates its removal. Exposure of the indwelling threads mostly occurs due to exposure of the knots.

Background: Low-doses of bone modifying agents (LD-BMAs) compared to those used to treat bone metastases are used in breast or prostate cancer patients on adjuvant endocrine therapy to prevent Cancer Treatment Induced Bone Loss (CTIBL). Their use is associated with an increased risk of developing Medication-Related Osteonecrosis of the Jaw (MRONJ). However, there is not clarity about strategies aimed to minimize the MRONJ risk in cancer patients at different conditions as low- vs high-doses of BMA.

The lymphatic system, which regulates inflammation and fluid homeostasis, is damaged in various diseases including myocardial infarction (MI) and breast-cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL). Mounting evidence suggests that restoring tissue fluid drainage and clearing excess immune cells by regenerating damaged lymphatic vessels can aid in cardiac repair and lymphedema amelioration. Current treatments primarily address symptoms rather than underlying causes due to a lack of regenerative therapies, highlighting the importance of the lymphatic system as a promising novel therapeutic target.
