Ravulizumab Can Effectively Treat Ischemic Enteritis Caused by Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria - PubMed
Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37558427/
Ischemic colitis is a common disease with a good prognosis; however, complications can occur in the presence of a serious underlying disease. Herein, we present a case report in which...
An 82-year-old woman with ischemic colitis secondary to paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria achieved remission and reduced transfusion dependence following ravulizumab therapy, underscoring complement inhibition’s efficacy in managing thrombotic PNH-related intestinal ischemia.
Nasopharyngeal Metastasis from Breast Carcinoma: A Case Report and a Review of the Literature - PubMed
Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/35943955/
Metastasis to the nasopharynx is a rare clinical entity. Breast carcinoma is one of the primary tumors that can be responsible for a nasopharyngeal metastasis, which is an extremely rare...
A rare case of nasopharyngeal metastasis from breast carcinoma presenting with hearing loss and tinnitus; biopsy confirmed ER/PR-positive adenocarcinoma, and chemotherapy achieved partial regression, highlighting diagnostic challenges in secondary nasopharyngeal tumors.
Indocyanine green versus technetium-99m for sentinel lymph node biopsy in breast cancer: the FLUORO trial - PubMed
Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41092412/
ICG fluorescence performed similarly to 99mTc lymphoscintigraphy and may be less costly over the long term.
In this prospective FLUORO trial of 305 patients, indocyanine green fluorescence achieved sentinel lymph node detection rates comparable to technetium-99m, offering similar efficacy, reduced radiation exposure, and potential long-term cost advantages in breast cancer surgery.
