UNLABELLED Ischemia of the nipple-areola complex (NAC) and periareolar tissue is commonly seen following tissue-preserving mastectomies for small invasive and noninvasive cancers. The nipple-areola preserving mastectomy is a multistage procedure in which the NAC and central mastectomy flap tissue is surgically delayed to improve the survivability in patients undergoing mastectomies followed by ...

Automatic and accurate detection of breast cancer metastases is meaningful for reducing the workload of the pathologists and reducing the cost of diagnosis. In this paper, we presented a learning-based method for automated prediction of breast cancer metastasis stages. This method is trained and validated on Camelyon17 challenge datasets. The method consists of three parts: tissue extraction, t...

background : breast cancer is one of the most frequent malignancies among iranian women. triple-negative breast cancer (tnbc) is referred to a type of breast cancer which three biomarkers of estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (her2), are negative. materials and methods: in this case control study, immunohistopathologic data of patients with tn...

background: inflammatory breast cancer (ibc), a subgroup of locally advanced breast cancer (labc), is diagnosed based on clinical findings, and seems to be different from other types of labc. the purpose of this study was to compare clinicopathological characteristics and outcomes between inflammatory and non-inflammatory labc patients at breast cancer research center (bcrc), tehran, iran. meth...

breast conservation surgery combined with radiation therapy is now an accepted option for the treatment of early breast cancer. so we decided to evaluate the results of such treatment in our first group of patients treated by this method. from 1992 to 1996 , one hundred patients with stage i and ii breast cancer treated with breast conservative surgery (lumpectomy or quadrantectomy). were irrad...

Objective. To reevaluate the diagnostic value of breast imaging in the diagnosis of breast cancer in areas where health resources are limited. Methods. Patients were women presenting with breast lumps in two university-affiliated tertiary hospitals, Thailand, during 2006 and 2010. Clinical data were abstracted from the breast cancer registration database and patient records. The diagnostic pred...

Introduction: Anthracyclines are one of the classes of chemotherapy drugs that  are widely used to treat many types of cancers including breast cancer. Taking this class of medications has a significant relationship with cardiac dysfunction. N-acetylcysteine has antioxidant properties and may be effective in preventing cardiac dysfunctions. In this study, we investigated the effect of N-acetylc...

male breast cancer is a rare disease with an increasing trend. due to limited information especially about the genetic basis of the disease in iran and the lower age of its onset, the disease requires more attention. the aim of this study was to screen the male patients with breast cancer for brca mutations as well as tissue markers of estrogen receptor (er), progesterone receptor (pr), human e...
