However, previous studies have produced conflicting results regarding whether it is truly superior to traditional laparoscopic hepatectomy. This study investigated the clinical effect of laparoscopic hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) using ICG imaging technology.

Article Synopsis
  • Smart burs and chemo-mechanical caries removal (CMCR) systems are alternative techniques for cavity preparation, but existing studies show mixed results regarding their efficacy, efficiency, and patient comfort.
  • This systematic review analyzed in vivo studies comparing these methods, excluding lower-quality sources and conducting a thorough risk of bias assessment on the included studies.
  • The analysis revealed that, although 154 studies were initially reviewed, only a few were suitable for meta-analysis, showing no significant difference in clinical efficacy between CMCR systems and smart burs.

Molecular classification of endometrial cancer: Impact on adjuvant treatment planning.

Cytojournal

November 2024

1st Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, Papageorgiou Hospital, Thessaloniki, Greece.

Objective: The traditional histopathological analysis of endometrial cancer (EC) is the main risk group classification tool (low, intermediate, high-intermediate, and high) for the implementation of adjuvant treatment. The International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics staging system of EC has incorporated a new molecular classification that serves as a new triage tool for optimal treatment planning for these patients. Our study aimed to investigate the prognostic role of the new molecular classification in EC.
