Sonographic localisation of lymph nodes suspicious of metastatic breast cancer to surgical axillary levels

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 119-138, March 2025.
Sonographic imaging is used to identify the presence, number and location of malignant lymph nodes. Axillary lymph nodes suspicious of harbouring breast cancer metastasis can be localised to three surgical axillary levels. This paper will unpack the axillary anatomy, muscular sonographic landmarks, surgical axillary lymph node levels and the ...

The Role of Routine Staging Laparoscopy for Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma in Underserved Populations: A 14‐Year Experience at a Safety‐Net Hospital

open access: yesJournal of Surgical Oncology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background There are no consensus guidelines for staging laparoscopy (SL) in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and existing data largely reflect insured referral populations. Routine SL has not been studied in underserved patient populations who face disparities in cancer diagnosis and treatment.

Evaluation of Systemic Inflammatory Markers in Predicting Malignancy in Parotid Gland Tumors

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Preoperative systemic inflammatory indices may assist in distinguishing benign from malignant parotid tumors. In this cohort of 259 patients undergoing parotidectomy, malignant tumors were associated with higher neutrophil‐to‐lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and platelet‐to‐lymphocyte ratio (PLR) values, as well as larger tumor size and older age.

Nanopore Sequencing for HPV in Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma and Benign Tonsil Specimens

open access: yesOtolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Human papillomavirus (HPV) accounts for the majority of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) cases in the United States but understanding the prevalence of high‐risk HPV in oropharyngeal tissue remains poor. We evaluated nanopore sequencing, a novel rapid, and long‐read sequencing platform, on OPSCC tissue and tested it in ...
