Delayed-immediate Versus Delayed Breast Reconstruction in Breast Cancer Patients With Mastectomy and Radiation Therapy
In breast cancer patients treated by mastectomy and adjuvant post-mastectomy radiation therapy (PMRT) reconstruction is often delayed until 6 - 12 month after completion of chemotherapy and PMRT, due to high risk of complication. In this trial the safety of the delayed-immediate reconstruction method is tested, where a skin sparing …
Trial Evaluating Role of Post Mastectomy Radiotherapy in Women With Node Negative Early Breast Cancer
Postmastectomy radiotherapy (PMRT) is unequivocally beneficial in reducing the recurrences as well as improving survival in node positive breast cancer patients. PMRT for women with T1-T2 tumors and negative axillary nodes is not generally warranted because of the presumed low risk of recurrence in this population as a whole. However, …
Use of Compression Bandages in the Prevention of Post-mastectomy Lymphoceles
Lymphocele secondary to a mastectomy whether or not associated with a lymph node procedure (sentinel lymph node or axillary dissection) is an almost systematic consequence observed in the postoperative situation in this type of surgery. This can be the source of pain, skin complications, and infection with a significant impact …
Investigating the Use of Intravenous Tranexamic Acid in Gender Affirming Mastectomy
Gender affirming surgeries (GAS) have been steadily increasing in the US, with the gender affirming mastectomy (GAM) being the most common surgery performed. Complications associated with these surgeries include hematoma and seroma. Prior studies in orthopedics, plastic surgery, and trauma have shown significant reduction of bleeding and ecchymosis with the …
Breast Cancer Locator Guided vs. Wire Localized Partial Mastectomy for Breast Cancer
This prospective, multicenter, 1:1 randomized, controlled trial is designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Breast Cancer Locator (BCL) in subjects with non-palpable invasive breast cancer or ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS). Subjects will be randomized to breast conserving surgery (BCS) utilizing either the BCL or wire localization …
Study of a Shortened Radiation Therapy Schedule in People With Breast Cancer
The purpose of this study is to see whether providing radiation on a shortened (compressed) schedule of 5 days in a row is a safe and effective approach to prevent cancer from coming back in people who have had a mastectomy.
Repeat Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy in Ipsilateral Breast Tumor Recurrence
According to the standard treatment guidelines established until recently, in the case of ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence without systemic metastasis, salvage mastectomy or lumpectomy can be performed when either partial or whole breast radiation therapy is possible. On the other hand, there are currently no standard treatment guidelines for axillary …
Long-term Outcomes of Lidocaine Infusions for Post-Operative Pain (LOLIPOP) Trial
The LOLIPOP Trial is a large (n=4,300 patients) pragmatic, international, multicentre, prospective, randomised, double blind, placebo-controlled, parallel assessment, safety and effectiveness superiority study.
Impact of Erector Spinae Plane Block on Chronic Postsurgical Pain in Breast Cancer Patients
Chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) has an incidence of 46% in patients after breast cancer surgery, which seriously affects patients' physiological and psychological function, as well as quality of life. Acute pain is an independent risk factor for persistent pain after surgery. Erector spinae plane block (ESPB) provided excellent perioperative analgesia …
Robot-assisted vs. Open Nipple-sparing Mastectomy With Immediate Breast Reconstruction
the purpose of the study: It provides the highest level of evidence ever studied on the use of robotic surgical systems during breast surgery for breast cancer treatment, and aims to reveal the clinical significance of successive breast reconstruction(immediate breast reconstruction, IBR) at the same time as Robot-assisted nipple-sparing mastectomy …
