Two patients who had received silicone injections in their breasts several years ago presented with breast complaints. Excluding cancer in these patients was very difficult. Mammograms were very difficult to interpret, as were the physical findings. Carcinoma was successfully detected by magnetic resonance imaging. When women who underwent the injudicious injection of silicone reach the cancer-prone age, the examining physicians should have a greater awareness of the detection and management of carcinoma coexistent with silicone mastopathy. We think that MRI is potentially valuable in the evaluation of the breast lesions; it plays an important role in the detection of breast cancer in breasts augmented with liquid silicone. 相似文献

Staged use of soft-tissue expansion and lower thoracic advancement flap in breast reconstruction 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A single patient is presented in whom breast reconstruction after mastectomy for breast cancer has been achieved by sequential use of soft-tissue expansion followed by permanent silicone implant placement and thoracic flap advancement to define the inframammary fold. This procedure may play a useful role in patients in whom other, more complex methods of breast reconstruction are not selected or indicated and in particular in patients in whom bilateral silicone implants are utilized. 相似文献

Current implants for breast augmentation containing silicone gel, saline, or both are radiopaque on mammographic examination and can totally obscure microcalcifications and soft-tissue masses. The effect of these implants on the detection of early breast cancers in patients who have undergone augmentation mammaplasty remains unproven and controversial. Implants filled with medium-chain triglycerides (peanut oil) are radiolucent on mammographic examination and allow visualization of both soft-tissue masses and microcalcifications. To investigate the biocompatibility of radiolucent implants, 10 cc of sterile, nonpyrogenic peanut oil was injected subcutaneously into rats using silicone gel as a control. Twenty-one rabbits had two 125-cc silicone shell implants inserted on either side of the chest wall. The right-sided shell was filled with 125 cc of sterile saline, and the left-sided shell was filled with 125 cc of sterile, nonpyrogenic peanut oil. Results were determined by both histologic and radiographic examination. Rats injected with peanut oil equivalent to 7 percent of their body weight rapidly absorbed the freely injected oil without detriment. Histologic examination of the lungs, liver, kidneys, and tissues adjacent to the injection sites demonstrated no abnormalities. There was no evidence of allergic, toxic, inflammatory, or neoplastic response. Eighteen of 21 rabbits survived more than 3 months. Radiographs showed the oil-filled implants to be radiolucent, whereas the saline-filled controls obscured the surrounding soft and bony tissues. Histologic examination demonstrated a fibrous capsule surrounding both types of implants. Histologic examination of the lungs, liver, and kidneys showed no significant abnormalities. These and previous studies have shown peanut oil to be biocompatible when freely injected either intramuscularly or subcutaneously. This study demonstrates that a radiolucent, peanut oil-filled implant is biocompatible in animals and that further long-term studies for its use in humans are merited. 相似文献

Arpin (Arp2/3 complex inhibitor), a novel protein found in 2013, plays a pivotal role in cell motility and migration. However, the precise role of Arpin in cancer is unclear. This study investigated the expression of Arpin in breast cancer and evaluated its correlation with the characteristics of clinical pathology and prognosis of breast cancer patients. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) for Arpin protein was performed on formalin‐fixed, paraffin‐embedded 176 breast cancer tissues and 43 normal breast tissues while qRT‐PCR for Arpin mRNA with 104 paired tumour and paratumoural tissues from breast cancer patients respectively. The association of Arpin expression with clinical pathological features and survival was assessed in a retrospective cohort analysis of patients. The results showed that the expression of Arpin protein in cancer tissues was lower compared to that in normal breast and the expression of Arpin mRNA was also lower in cancer tissues than that in the matched paratumoural tissues. Among the 176 breast cancer patients, the lower expression of Arpin was significantly associated with advanced tumour, nodes and metastasis system stage, and the reduced Arpin expression was strongly associated with axillary lymph node metastasis using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis [odds ratio: 3.242; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.526, 6.888; P < 0.05]. Furthermore, Arpin expression was an independent risk factor for recurrence‐free survival (HR: 0.373; 95% CI: 0.171, 0.813; P < 0.05). As Arpin expression was first examined in human breast cancer tissues with qRT‐PCR and IHC, our results suggest that Arpin downregulation may contribute to the initiation and development of breast cancer metastasis. Therefore, as a potential predictive marker, Arpin deserves future studies. 相似文献

An improved technique for creation of the inframammary fold in silicone implant breast reconstruction. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
A "lipo-fascial" flap is described for creation of the inframammary fold in patients undergoing breast reconstruction with silicone implants. We have employed this technique in 13 patients. The fold has been enhanced in all cases, and we have not encountered any significant complications. This technique is a useful adjunct to breast reconstruction with a silicone implant, and we recommend that it be considered in appropriate patients. 相似文献

Disabled‐1 (Dab1) is best known as an adaptor protein regulating neuron migration and lamination during development. However, the exact function of Dab1 in breast cancer is unknown. In this study, we examined the expression of Dab1 in 38 breast cancer paraffin sections, as well as 60 paired frozen breast cancer and their adjacent tissues. Our results showed that Dab1 was reduced in breast cancer, and its compromised expression correlated with triple negative breast cancer phenotype, poor differentiation, as well as lymph node metastasis. Functional analysis in breast cancer cell lines demonstrated that Dab1 promoted cell apoptosis, which, at least partially, depended on its regulation of NF‐κB/Bcl‐2/caspase‐9 pathway. Our study strongly suggests that Dab1 may be a potential tumour suppressor gene in breast cancer. 相似文献

Using a previously developed method for quantitative measurements of silicone concentrations in breast tissue, material from 86 biopsies from 67 breasts in 55 patients who had silicone implants was examined. In the 49 breast with unruptured prostheses, there was a positive relation between the concentrations and inflammatory reactions, the only exception being the amount of plasma cells, which showed a negative relation. It is concluded that silicone prostheses provoke an inflammatory response not only because they act as foreign bodies, but also because of silicone seepage through intact membranes. 相似文献

Background: The aim of the present study was to confirm the role of Brachyury in breast cancer and to verify whether four types of machine learning models can use Brachyury expression to predict the survival of patients.Methods: We conducted a retrospective review of the medical records to obtain patient information, and made the patient’s paraffin tissue into tissue chips for staining analysis. We selected 303 patients for research and implemented four machine learning algorithms, including multivariate logistic regression model, decision tree, artificial neural network and random forest, and compared the results of these models with each other. Area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve (AUC) was used to compare the results.Results: The chi-square test results of relevant data suggested that the expression of Brachyury protein in cancer tissues was significantly higher than that in paracancerous tissues (P=0.0335); patients with breast cancer with high Brachyury expression had a worse overall survival (OS) compared with patients with low Brachyury expression. We also found that Brachyury expression was associated with ER expression (P=0.0489). Subsequently, we used four machine learning models to verify the relationship between Brachyury expression and the survival of patients with breast cancer. The results showed that the decision tree model had the best performance (AUC = 0.781).Conclusions: Brachyury is highly expressed in breast cancer and indicates that patients had a poor prognosis. Compared with conventional statistical methods, decision tree model shows superior performance in predicting the survival status of patients with breast cancer. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To standardize the technique of immunocytochemical (ICC) assessment of estrogen (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) status in breast cancer by scrape cytology and to compare the results with immunohistochemistry on paraffin blocks. STUDY DESIGN: ICC assessment for ER and PR was done on scrape smears from tissue samples in 200 cases of primary breast cancer. The results were compared to those obtained from immunohistochemical (IHC) evaluation of formalin-fixed paraffin same tissue samples. RESULTS: ER/PR positivity rates as well as staining scores were compared between the scrape smears and tissue sections. The concordance between cytology and histology was 84% for ER and 90% for PR. Both the positivity rates and the staining intensity scores were higher for cytochemistry than for histochemistry. CONCLUSION: The ICC method on scrape smears is a simple test with rapid turnaround time. The sample required is small, and antigen loss due to fixation and processing is minimal. This new method gives a higher yield of hormone receptor positivity and, when used in conjunction with the IHC method, may improve the pickup rate of ER-positive cases, thereby playing an important role in risk stratification and therapeutic decision making in patients with breast cancer. 相似文献

Periprosthetic infection is a devastating complication following breast reconstruction with prostheses. Traditional surgical principles dictate removal of the prosthesis to control infection. Although successful salvage of prostheses in the presence of periprosthetic infections has been reported in the plastic and other surgical literature, salvage procedures remain seldom practiced. Reports in the plastic surgery literature have been limited to implant salvage following cosmetic breast augmentation and subcutaneous mastectomy with implants. Salvage of saline-filled expander prostheses used in breast reconstruction following mastectomy for cancer has not been previously reported. The authors review their experience with implant salvage in patients with periprosthetic infections following breast reconstruction for a 6-year period. Fourteen patients (13 with saline-filled expander prostheses and one with silicone prosthesis) underwent implant salvage. Salvage of the breast reconstruction was successful in nine patients. Staphylococcus aureus infection was associated with poorer salvage rate (p = 0.023). Previous radiotherapy to the chest wall did not affect the salvage outcome (p = 0.50). In selected patients, immediate salvage of a breast reconstruction in the presence of prosthesis-related infection remains an alternative to implant removal followed by delayed reconstruction. 相似文献

Aesthetic surgery is an essential component of plastic surgery and has become increasingly popular in American society. In 2002, 1.8 million surgical cosmetic procedures were performed in the United States, representing a 294 percent increase from 1992. The 1992 U.S. Food and Drug Administration moratorium on silicone breast implants arose in response to numerous reports of connective tissue disease associated with silicone gel breast augmentation and has led to a decade-long battle over the safety of silicone breast implants that continues today. Numerous scientific and epidemiologic studies of the past decade have established that there is no association between silicone breast prostheses and systemic disease. Recently, a new front has opened in the conflict regarding the safety of breast augmentation: the psychological impact of breast augmentation. Quality studies assessing the psychological characteristics of breast augmentation patients and the psychological impact of breast augmentation surgery are few and most studies are flawed in their methods. Recent reports have provided corroborating evidence to support the psychological benefits of cosmetic surgery and breast augmentation. New reports citing an increased risk for suicide among women with breast implants have brought renewed concerns but are unable to demonstrate a cause-and-effect relationship between breast implants and suicide. The present challenge is to determine whether the increased risk reported in epidemiologic studies is falsely associated with breast implants or whether it represents underlying risk factors or psychopathology in women undergoing breast augmentation that puts them at increased risk for suicide. The purpose of this article is to review the literature regarding the psychological impact of breast augmentation and assesses current scientific findings, with emphasis on the validity of suicide risk in breast augmentation patients. 相似文献

This study was initiated to understand why talc was found in the entrance wounds and pericapsular scars of patients with silicone breast implants. Twenty-five surgical gloves made between 1977 and 1992 by a major glove manufacturer were evaluated with infrared spectroscopy. Seven gloves manufactured before early 1983 contained talc. Later manufactured gloves contained calcium carbonate instead of talc. Talc-containing gloves were submitted to independent laboratories for scanning electron microscopic examination and x-ray microanalysis to obtain finer detail. Remnants of the mold-release agent talc were found in the matrix of the patient-contact side of the glove. Wetting studies showed that silicone oil (gel bleed) immediately wet the surface of rubber glove. After donning, silicone oil was massaged between the thumb and index finger of each washed, talc-containing glove for 1 minute and then daubed from the glove to a microscopic slide. The slide was viewed with polarized light microscopy for the presence of talc crystals. Transfer of talc occurred using silicone oil, but not saline, in each talc-containing glove. Three factors were likely involved in the greater talc deposition that occurred with patients undergoing silicone gel-filled breast implantation than in patients undergoing other surgical procedures. (1) The wetting of the gloves with silicone gel bleed from implants loosened the talc in the glove matrix. (2) Hand-intensive surgical use freed the talc from the gloves. (3) Loose talc adhered to the silicone elastomer of the breast implants and was deposited with implant placement. 相似文献

ObjectivesVascular endothelial cell growth factor (VEGF) plays an important role in the biology of gynecological cancer, usually linked with aggressive tumour behaviour and a poor postoperative outcome. Yet, its role in benign breast/gynecological conditions is less clear.MethodsSerum VEGF was analysed in a series of 49 patients with gynecological cancer and 61 patients with benign disease and compared to those of 12 normal female subjects. In addition, the activation status of VEGFR2/KDR receptors was investigated in formalin-fixed paraffin embedded tissues and related to VEGF.ResultsMean serum levels of VEGF were significantly higher in patients with breast, endometrial and ovarian cancer compared to healthy controls and those with benign breast/gynecologic disease in the respective organs. A similar trend was noted in some cases of simple endometrial hyperplasia, fibroadenoma and fibrocystic disease of the breast. The expression of phosphorylated VEGFR2/KDR receptors was higher in breast, endometrial, ovarian cancer in patients with high VEGF serum levels and this reached a level of statistical significance when all malignancies were combined.ConclusionsSerum VEGF levels are increased in patients with breast and gynecological malignancies, but this can not be considered pathognomonic for cancer as it is also increased in certain benign conditions, including cases of fibroadenoma, fibrocystic disease of breast and simple endometrial hyperplasia. Furthermore, high serum VEGF levels are closely related to the activation status of the VEGFR2/KDR receptor in cancer cells, indicating a stimulatory effect of serum VEGF on the VEGF pathway contributing to tumor progression. 相似文献

Enfuvirtide is a large protein that should be injected subcutaneously to ensure an appropriate absorption. Here we report the case of a transgender HIV-positive patient receiving enfuvirtide with an individualized background regimen of antiretroviral drugs, who had previously undergone liquid silicone oil injections. We performed US scan to detect silicone-free areas for following enfuvirtide injections. US can be useful in the correct management of those patients with liquid silicone oil soft tissue augmentation who require subcutaneously injected drugs. 相似文献

The identification of proteins involved in tumour progression or which permit enhanced or novel therapeutic targeting is essential for cancer research. Direct MALDI analysis of tissue sections is rapidly demonstrating its potential for protein imaging and profiling in the investigation of a range of disease states including cancer. MALDI‐mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI‐MSI) has been used here for direct visualisation and in situ characterisation of proteins in breast tumour tissue section samples. Frozen MCF7 breast tumour xenograft and human formalin‐fixed paraffin‐embedded breast cancer tissue sections were used. An improved protocol for on‐tissue trypsin digestion is described incorporating the use of a detergent, which increases the yield of tryptic peptides for both fresh frozen and formalin‐fixed paraffin‐embedded tumour tissue sections. A novel approach combining MALDI‐MSI and ion mobility separation MALDI‐tandem mass spectrometry imaging for improving the detection of low‐abundance proteins that are difficult to detect by direct MALDI‐MSI analysis is described. In situ protein identification was carried out directly from the tissue section by MALDI‐MSI. Numerous protein signals were detected and some proteins including histone H3, H4 and Grp75 that were abundant in the tumour region were identified. 相似文献

Recent evidence suggests that most malignancies are driven by “cancer stem cells” sharing the signature characteristics of adult stem cells: the ability to self renew and to differentiate. Furthermore these cells are thought to be quiescent, infrequently dividing cells with a natural resistance to chemotherapeutic agents. These studies theorize that therapies, which effectively treat the majority of tumor cells but ‘miss’ the stem cell population, will fail, while therapies directed at stern cells can potentially eradicate tumors. In breast cancer, researchers have isolated ‘breast cancer stem cells’ capable of recreating the tumor in vivo and in vitro. Generated new tumors contained both additional numbers of cancer stem cells and diverse mixed populations of cells present in the initial tumor, supporting the intriguing self‐renewal and differentiation characteristics. In the present study, an antibody phage library has been used to search for phage displayed‐single chain antibodies (scFv) with selective affinity to specific targets on breast cancer stem cells. We demonstrate evidence of two clones binding specifically to a cancer stem cell population isolated from the SUMl59 breast cancer cell line. These clones had selective affinity for cancer stem cells and they were able to select cancer stem cells among a large population of non‐stem cancer cells in paraffin‐embedded sections. The applicability of these clones to paraffin sections and frozen tissue specimens made them good candidates to be used as diagnostic and prognostic markers in breast cancer patient samples taking into consideration the cancer stern cell concept in tumor biology. © 2009 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol.

I have used polyurethane prostheses for the past 14 years, implanting 220 implants into 130 patients who desired breast reconstruction after subcutaneous mastectomy or cancer ablation or simply breast augmentation. I theorize that a polyurethane-covered implant resists contracture, retaining its compressibility because the fibroblasts proliferate into the polyurethane in many different directions. When the fibrils contract, the forces of contracture counterbalance one another, resisting contracture. However, when smooth prostheses are implanted, fibrils are directed in a circular fashion around the implant and naturally contract, leading to firmer breasts. There were 115 prostheses inserted following subcutaneous mastectomy, and 22 percent developed contracted capsules. Seven implants became exposed because of skin necroses; one was removed because of a Staphylococcus infection; and two patients developed a combination of polyurethane and silicone granulomas. These developed only with the earlier implant, where there was shedding of the polyurethane sponge layer and silicone bled from the low-viscosity silicone used in the earlier implants. No granulomas were noted with the currently used Surgitek Replicon implant. Eighty-five breasts were reconstructed after cancer ablation with polyurethane implants, and the contracture rate was 2.3 percent. Other complications were minimal. A smaller group of patients had augmentation mammaplasty, and 20 prostheses were placed in 10 patients. A 15 percent contracture rate was noted in this group. In this study, 82 percent of patients were followed for up to 14 years. Capsular contractures occurred in 30 implants between 1 and 11 years, for an average recurrence at 6.3 years. The overall contracture rate was 13 percent. Other complications were minimal. All implants were placed subcutaneously or subglandularly, and all were drained. 相似文献
