Effect of intraoperative wound irrigation with topical phenytoin on postoperative seroma formation after modified radical mastectomy [PDF]
Background: Modified radical mastectomy (MRM), as a surgical treatment in breast cancer patients, may lead to important complications with significant morbidities including seroma formation.

Surgical Activity Recognition in Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy using Deep Learning [PDF]
Adverse surgical outcomes are costly to patients and hospitals. Approaches to benchmark surgical care are often limited to gross measures across the entire procedure despite the performance of particular tasks being largely responsible for undesirable outcomes.

Knowledge, Sources Used and Factors Considered in the Surgical Treatment Decisions of Women With Breast Cancer [PDF]
The purpose of this replication study was to examine how women with breast cancer reached their decision for surgical treatment (Ward, Heidrich and Wolberg 1989). Twenty-one women who met the surgical criteria, i.e.

A Study on the Incidence of Post Mastectomy Pain and Phantom Breast Syndrome following Mastectomy [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: The majority of women diagnosed with breast cancer undergo some kind of breast surgery as part of their treatment. Up to 55% of these women experience pain after their surgery, pain which in some cases persists for months to years .

Conservative surgery for breast cancer [PDF]
Modified radical mastectomy has been the traditional surgical treatment of early breast cancer but in recent years breast conserving surgery has been used with no significant difference in local recurrence and survival rates.

Case report: Secretory breast cancer in an 11-year-old girl [PDF]
A lack of consensus about the optimal treatment modalities for breast cancer in children is because of its absolutely rare prevalence. In this article, the medical history and treatment of a secretory breast carcinoma in an 11-year-old girl is reported ...

Hall Coefficient of the Intercalated Graphite CaC$_6$ in the Uniaxial CDW Ground State [PDF]
We evaluate the Hall coefficient characterising magnetotransport in an intercalated graphite CaC$_6$ with the Fermi surface reconstructed by an uniaxial charge density wave from closed pockets to open sheets. As the typical order parameter, corresponding to the pseudo-gap in electronic spectrum and consequently to spacing between electron trajectories ...

Numerics on the trajectory of nodule displacements by external compressions of the breast [PDF]
We present a fast and reliable algorithm that gives precise location of breast tumours for a partial mastectomy. Our algorithm is fully implemented in the Surface Evolver, which is a general-purpose simulator of physical experiments. By starting from the X-rays images that show a tumour one takes its 2D coordinates in each view.
