  • Breast Disorders in Girls and Adolescents. Is There a Need for a Specialized Service?
    Original Study Breast Disorders in Girls and Adolescents. Is There a Need for a Specialized Service? Lina Michala MRCOG, PhD *, Alexandra Tsigginou MD, PhD, Dimitris Zacharakis MD, Constantine Dimitrakakis MD, PhD 1stDepartment of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, University of Athens, Alexandra Hospital, Athens, Greece abstract Introduction: Minor breast concerns in childhood and adolescence are common and lead to increased anxiety among young patients and their families, particularly due to high correlation with breast cancer. However, most breast services aim at managing adults and triaging patients with breast cancer, whereas adolescent medicine specialists or pediatricians are usually not appropriately trained to identify and treat breast pathology. Methods: We reviewed hospital records of all patients attending a pediatric and adolescent gynecology or breast clinic of a tertiary referral hospital, with a breast related symptom, between January 2009 and December 2011. We collected information regarding age at presen- tation, age at menarche, diagnosis, management and outcome. Results: We identified 81 patients of which 11 presented with an abnormal nipple or areolar secretion, 33 had a palpable lump, 20 had mastitis, and 16 had unequal breast development. One patient presented with virginal breast hypertrophy. Three out of 11 of the patients with an abnormal secretion had a cyst identified on ultrasonography. Out of the palpable lumps 12 were fibroadenomas, 3 were phyllodes tumors, and 14 were cystic in nature. The phyllodes tumors and half of the fibroadenomas were removed. The remaining fibroadenomas remain under regular ultrasonographic follow-up. All cases of mastitis were treated conservatively and resolved with broad spectrum antibiotic treatment. Conclusion: In our series, no malignancies were identified.

Reprints and permission: Scaffold in the Ptotic Breast: A Multicenter [email protected] DOI: 10.1093/asj/sjy022 Clinical Study www.aestheticsurgeryjournal.com William P. Adams, Jr, MD; Richard Baxter, MD; Caroline Glicksman, MD; Bruce A. Mast, MD; Michael Tantillo, MD; and Bruce W. Van Natta, MD Abstract Background: Mastopexy and reduction mammaplasty are often limited by the patient’s poor native soft tissue quality, resulting in ptosis recurrence and loss of rejuvenated surgical results. Surgical scaffolds and acellular dermal matrices are used in these procedures to provide physical and mechanical stabilization of weakened or compromised tissue. GalaFLEX scaffold, made from poly-4-hydroxybutyrate (P4HB), is a next-generation product for soft tissue reinforcement that resorbs gradually while aiding tissue regeneration to achieve excellent outcomes. Objectives: To assess the clinical performance of GalaFLEX scaffold in soft tissue reinforcement during elective mastopexy and reduction mammaplasty. Methods: This multicenter, single-arm, observational study assessed product performance and outcomes of GalaFLEX scaffold when used in breast surgery. Outcomes included ptosis correction and maintenance, associated adverse events, patient and surgeon satisfaction, and mammographic and ultrasound imaging evaluation. Results: At 6 centers in the US, 62 of 69 enrolled patients were treated. Of this population, 89.7% had successful ptosis correction and maintenance at 1 year, with high patient and surgeon satisfaction for breast shape, droop/sag of the breast, and maintenance of results at 1 year.

Clinical, radiological and histopathological examination together increase the diagnostic accuracy. To evaluate the clinicopathologic features of hamartomas and outline our clinical approach to hamartomas in our 20-year experi- ence at our Breast Clinic. Materials and Methods: Between 1995 and 2015, 24 cases were retrospectively analyzed with a diagnosis of breast hamartoma at our Breast Clinic followed by excisional biopsy. Data was obtained on patient demographics, clinical examination, radiological findings and histopathological subtypes. Results: Of 1338 benign breast tumours excised from January 1995 to January 2015, 24 (1.8%) were identified as breast hamartoma. Median age of patients was 42 (range, 13-70), whereas the median tumour size was 5 cm (1-10 cm). On preoperative imaging, hamartoma was most commonly misdiagnosed as fibroadenoma. Pathological examination of the 24 biopsy specimens revealed 3 cases with pseudoangiomatous stromal hyperplasia, and another hamartoma associated with a radial scar within the centre of the lesion.

  • FINAL Opinion on the Safety of Breast Implants in Relation to Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma
    Scientific Committee on Health, Environmental and Emerging Risks (SCHEER) FINAL Opinion on the safety of breast implants in relation to anaplastic large cell lymphoma The SCHEER adopted this Opinion by written procedure on 26 March 2021 Breast Implants Safety and Anaplastic Large Cell Lymphoma Final Opinion _________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT The SCHEER was requested by the European Commission to provide a scientific opinion on the safety of breast implants in relation to anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL). Literature searches were carried out using PubMed and Find-eR. The publication period covered was from 1 September 2016 to 31 August 2019, and an additional search was performed early in 2020 covering the period from 1 September 2019 to 30 April 2020. In addition, relevant sources and literature beyond this period was considered as well. After excluding all irrelevant papers and duplicate papers, a total of 605 papers remained and were evaluated for this Scientific Opinion. BIA-ALCL is the occurrence of ALCL adjacent to a breast implant. Diagnosis of BIA-ALCL is achieved by analysis of seroma fluid or if a mass, core needle, incisional or excisional tissue biopsy. Radical en bloc surgical resection (i.e. implant including seroma and intact capsule) with safe margins, including healthy tissue, is recommended as the standard of care treatment, with a very good prognosis. The incidence of BIA-ALCL is considered low, varies by implant type, and is mainly associated with macro-textured implants. However, estimates of incidence have significant limitations related to the frequent use of ad hoc reporting of cases compared with systematic reporting, and the use of sales data provided by manufacturers.

ULUSAL MEME KANSERİ KONSENSUSU Değerli Meslektaşlarımız , Kurulduğu günden beri pek çok ilke imzasını atan Meme Dernekleri Koordinasyon Kurulu (MDKK) 2006 Kasım ayında yeni bir girişime daha önder olmuştur. Türkiye‘ nin dört bir yanından gelen ve meme kanserini kendilerine uğraş alanı olarak seçen Genel Cerrah, Tıbbi Onkolog, Radyasyon Onkoloğu, Radyolog ve Patolog meslektaşlarımız Bodrum‘ da toplanarak bir ulusal uzlaşı metni oluşturmak için yoğun çaba harcadılar. Yurt dışında katıldığımız ve buruk bir şekilde izlediğimiz bu tip bir toplantıyı ülkemizde gerçekleştirmek kolay olmadı. Bu toplantı için yoğun uğraşlar verildi ve çabalar harcandı. Sonuçta hepimizin katkılarıyla ortaya bize ait olan ulusal bir ortak metin çıktı. Bu ortak metinin paylaşılması ve hayata geçirilmesi bundan sonra yapılacak uzlaşı toplantılarının önünü açacaktır.
