Article Abstract

Intracholecystic papillary neoplasm (ICPN) is a non-invasive epithelial tumor that presents as a grossly identifiable mass arising in the mucosa and protruding into the lumen. ICPN is associated with invasive carcinoma. There are few studies on the clinicopathological features of ICPN, including that with invasive carcinoma. We evaluated the clinicopathological characteristics of 42 ICPNs and 41 conventional gallbladder adenocarcinomas (cGBAs). Subserosa or deeper (≥ss) invasion was significantly lower in ICPN (61.9%) than that in cGBA (90.2%) (P = 0.004). Cox regression analysis revealed that lymph node metastasis (hazard ratio [HR] [95% confidence interval (CI)]: 2.610 [1.131, 6.024], P = 0.025) and positive margin (HR [95% CI]: 5.143 [2.113, 12.516], P < 0.001), but not ≥ss invasion (HR [95% CI]: 1.541 [0.479, 4.959], P = 0.469), were independent prognostic factors. In addition, there was a significant interaction between histological type and lymph node metastasis (HR [95% CI]: 0.191 [0.042, 0.983], P = 0.033). In cGBA, the presence or absence of lymph node metastasis did not affect prognosis; however, ICPN without lymph node metastasis had better prognosis. Therefore, the histological classification of ICPN and cGBA and the pathological evaluation of lymph node metastasis in ICPN are crucial for determining prognosis.

Objective: We sought to determine the cost-effectiveness (CE) of lymph node dissection (LND) at the time of hysterectomy for endometrial intraepithelial neoplasia (EIN).

Methods: A decision analytic model was created to evaluate the strategies of routine full LND, sentinel lymph node dissection (SNLD), SNLD without advancing to full LND in the event of non-mapping, and full LND based on Mayo Criteria, versus no LND. Patients in the no LND group and those in the SLND group without advancement to full LND in the event of non-mapping who were found to have EC on final pathology and suspicious post-operative imaging underwent full LND.

Objective: Treatment approaches for endometrial cancer became more personalized in the last decade, mainly due to two key advancements - sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping and molecular classification. However, their prognostic interaction remains relatively unexplored.

Methods: This retrospective cohort study included patients with endometrial cancer, who underwent surgical treatment including SLN mapping at the Bern University Hospital, Switzerland.

Objectives: To assess the usefulness of sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) in patients with early-stage oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC).

Materials And Methods: Seventy-five patients (mean age 62 years) diagnosed with cT1-2 N0 underwent SLNB with Tc, lymphoscintigraphy/SPECT-CT, and gamma probe detection with intraoperative histological examination of the resected sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs). Elective neck dissection was performed during the same surgical procedure of primary tumor resection when malignant deposits were detected microscopically.
