Background And Purpose: Compare breast cancer tumour bed (TB) delineation using stabilised hyaluronic acid (sHA) gel and MRI-simulation versus surgical clips and CT-simulation within same patient cohort.
Materials And Methods: Prospective single arm study of patients undergoing breast conserving surgery. Patients had both clips (≥5) and sHA gel markers inserted to define the TB and underwent MRI and CT simulation scans.

Background: The current NCCN guidelines advocate for the use of adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) or chemoradiotherapy (CRT) in pT3N0 oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OCSCC). Here, we sought to evaluate whether postoperative RT/CRT may confer a survival advantage in pT3N0 patients who lack adverse pathological features.
Methods: A dataset of 852 pT3N0 OCSCC patients treated between 2018 and 2021 was analyzed.

An 18-year-old female patient presented with a 1-month history of low back pain, which had worsened and was accompanied by radiating pain in the right lower limb for half a month. She was admitted to our hospital with computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging findings suggesting calcification of the L3/4 disc and a large intraspinal mass at the L2-4 level. The patient's symptoms did not improve with conservative treatment, and her muscle strength rapidly declined.

Materials And Methods: We retrospectively searched the prospectively collected surgical database of two highly experienced robotic urological surgeons for cases of RA-SRC, defined as RARC performed post-previous pelvic RT for palliative or oncologic treatment purposes. Collected data included demographic and clinical information and outcome measures including operative course, hospital stay and complications.

Malignant triton tumor (MTT), a subtype of malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor, is a rare soft-tissue sarcoma with a difficult diagnosis and poor prognosis. The course of MTT progression is rapid and the degree of malignancy is high. Patients with MTT can be treated with postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy; however, treatment results are still poor.
