متن کاملRe: detection of Epstein-Barr virus in invasive breast cancers.
BACKGROUND Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) may be a cofactor in the development of different malignancies, including several types of carcinomas. In this study, we investigated the presence of EBV in human breast cancers. METHODS We used tissues from 100 consecutive primary invasive breast carcinomas, as well as 30 healthy tissues adjacent to a subset of the tumors. DNA was amplified by use of the p...
متن کاملPreoperative Evaluation of Axillary Lymph Nodes in Malignant Breast Lesions with Ultrasonography and Histopathologic Correlation
Purpose: Our aim is to define the sonographic criteria for assessing involved axillary nodes and to evaluate the accuracy of axillary ultrasound in the staging workup of individuals with breast cancer. Materials and Methods: 35 patients with breast cancer were prospectively evaluated with preoperative ultrasonography (US) to determine the presence of axillary lymph node metastasis. We determine...
متن کاملTumor growth rate of invasive breast cancers during wait times for surgery assessed by ultrasonography
Several studies suggest that delay in the surgical treatment of breast cancer is significantly associated with lower survival. This study evaluated the tumor growth rate (TGR) of invasive breast cancers during wait times for surgery quantitatively using ultrasonography (US) and identified clinicopathologic factors associated with TGR.This retrospective study was approved by our institutional re...
متن کاملNegligible advantages and excess costs of routine addition of breast ultrasonography to mammography in dense breasts.
AIM To assess the role of breast ultrasonography as a complement to negative mammography in radiologically dense breasts. MATERIAL AND METHODS Out of a total series of 49,044 consecutive mammograms reported as negative in asymptomatic women, 25,665 (52.3%) were coded as dense (BI-RADS D3-4) and ultrasonography was recommended. Due to organizational problems, ultrasonography was performed imme...
