Inflammatory conditions play part in the progression of malignancies, and markers signifying growth of these factors can indicate prognosis. Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte (NLR) is used as a marker of subclinical inflammation that may become an integral part of workup to indicate prognosis and associated pathology. This study aims to explore the association of NLR ratio with clinical characteristics, radiological assessment and staging, histopathology, and disease outcomes of breast cancer.

Article Synopsis
  • Cholecystectomy, particularly laparoscopic surgery, is commonly performed but not always available in developing countries; mini-laparotomy cholecystectomy is a safer alternative with a smaller incision.
  • A study at El-Dwaim Teaching Hospital in Sudan analyzed 512 cases of mini-laparotomy cholecystectomy performed over 11 years, focusing on operative duration, complications, and length of hospital stay.
  • Results showed that the procedure is safe, with most operations lasting under 60 minutes, low complication rates, and an average postoperative hospital stay of just 24 hours, making it a suitable choice in areas with limited surgical resources.
