The surgical management of stump carcinoma includes the gold standard pelvic exenteration and more conservative approaches. This study aimed to investigate the outcome among a cohort of vaginal and cervical stump carcinomas that were treated with an intent of organ preservation. This is a prospective study of 60 patients with a biopsy confirmed stump carcinomas at a tertiary care oncology center in Egypt. The demographic, surgical, and pathological data were collected and patients underwent radical surgery with an intent of organ preservation guided by margin negativity. The pathologic data were correlated with the postoperative mortality. Correlation coefficients were calculated for simple correlation and regression analysis was used to investigate the independent predictors of survival. Pelvic exenteration was conducted in 30/60 (50%), while wide local excision with safety margins was possible in 26/60 (43%) and in two cases, resection was precluded. Mean hospital stay in days was 19 ± 9 (range 4–61). Overall operative morbidity was 83.3% (50/60). Perioperative mortality was 6.7% (4/60). Five-year disease-free survival was 40% (24/60). Five-year overall survival was 50% (30/60). The resection margin status and the perioperative therapy were independent prognostic factors of DFS (p = 0.003 and 0.02, respectively. Only the resection margin status was significantly associated with overall survival (p = 0.009). There was no increased mortality with introduction of more conservative surgical approaches. The resection margin status is the most important determinant of recurrence free and overall survivals.

Osteosarcoma is a malignant bone tumor affecting mainly children and young adults and commonly involves extremities. The aim of this study was to assess the patient-related, tumor-related, and treatment-related factors affecting the overall survival in patients with non-metastatic extremity osteosarcoma. A retrospective, single institutional study of 100 patients with non-metastatic extremity osteosarcoma was done between 2014 and 2019. Age, sex, histologic type, tumor site, use of preoperative chemotherapy and its duration, response to chemotherapy, type of surgery, presence of local recurrence, occurrence of lung metastasis, and survival data were recorded. Survival analysis was done using Kaplan-Meier method. p < 0.05 by log-rank test was considered statistically significant. Statistical data were analyzed using SPSS v.25(IBM). The median age of presentation was 18 years with male sex preponderance. The most common site of presentation was distal femur, and commonest histological variant was osteoblastic osteosarcoma. Incidence of local recurrence was 9%, and lung metastasis was identified in 12% on follow-up. The 5-year overall survival (OS) was 65.5%, and 5-year local recurrence-free survival was 57.6%. The 5-year OS in neoadjuvant chemotherapy group was 80% compared to 39.5% in upfront surgery group (p = 0.015). The 5-year OS in patients with tumor necrosis > 90% and < 90% was 93.2% and 71.2%, respectively (p = 0.038). The 5-year OS in patients without lung metastasis was 76%, whereas none who developed lung metastasis has survived 5 years (p < 0.001). The use of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, good response to chemotherapy, and the absence of lung metastasis on follow-up can independently predict better overall survival.

Ewing sarcoma is a malignancy that commonly affects the skeletal system and primary extraskeletal involvement is rare. Extraskeletal Ewing sarcoma (EES) arises in soft tissue anywhere in the body. These are very rarely seen aggressive tumours. There have been only 7 reported cases of EES of penis. We report a 22-year-young patient who presented to our hospital with a ulcero-proliferative growth in the shaft of penis. There were no other complaints indicating any metastasis. Incisional biopsy was suggestive of invasive malignancy. He was scheduled for a partial penectomy. Final HPE and IHC were suggestive of EES. EES as a subtype of Ewing sarcoma is rare and it can occur in any soft tissue site. Hence, clinicians need to differentiate this entity from other soft tissue sarcomas. Early diagnosis and timely treatment of EES are pivotal for a favourable prognosis due to its aggressive nature.

This study aimed to compare the treatment outcomes in carcinoma cervix before and after gynecologic oncology sub-specialization at a tertiary care hospital, in India. This was a retrospective cohort study comparing women with operable cervical cancer who underwent radical hysterectomy before and after gynecologic oncology sub-specialization. Electronic medical records of women operated for early carcinoma cervix between 2001 and 2010 and 2011–2015 were reviewed and compared for treatment and oncological outcomes. Seventy-four patients were operated over 5 years after sub-specialization as against 59 over 10 years before sub-specialization, with similar clinical characteristics. After surgical-pathological examination, both cohorts were comparable with regard to mean tumor size, lymph nodes retrieved, deep stromal invasion, and involvement of lymph nodes, parametrium, and vaginal margins. After sub-specialization, the rate of intraoperative (3% versus 14%, p = 0.018) and postoperative complications (15% versus 46%, p < 0.001) was lower. Adjuvant radiation was used more after sub-specialization (50% versus 24%, p < 0.001). The follow-up rates were similar in both groups with comparable 5-year recurrence-free survival and overall survival rates. The hazard ratio for death after sub-specialization was 0.39 (95% CI 0.12 to 1.22) after adjusting for histology, stage, grade, and presence of intermediate or high risk factors. Gynecological oncologic sub-specialization decreased intraoperative and postoperative complications, improved pathological reporting, and enabled appropriate tailoring of adjuvant therapy.

Imaging of the Infratemporal Fossa: a Comprehensive Pictorial Essay
Springer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 13 - Trang 868-875 - 2022
Anjali Sah, Triveni G. S., Chandrashekhara S. H.
While radiologists are familiar with the masticator space, the surgeons are more familiar with the infratemporal fossa (ITF). Though often used interchangeably, there exists a subtle difference between them, which needs to be understood. The close anatomical relationship of the infratemporal fossa to critical structures makes timely diagnosis vital. In this pictorial review, we present a spectrum of various pathologies affecting ITF.

Retroperitoneal tumors can cause ureteric obstruction leading to obstructive uropathy. Early preoperative ureteric stenting helps to improve renal function and also helps in identifying ureters and prevent ureteric injury during surgery. This study was aimed at assessing the outcome of preoperative stenting in optimizing such patients. A total of 24 cases were enrolled. Of these, 15 patients who had obstructive uropathy were taken for ureteric stenting preoperatively and other 9 patients have undergone surgery without stenting. Twelve patients were stented successfully but 3 patients could not be stented (underwent percutaneous nephrostomy). All 24 patients underwent laparotomy, and of the 12 stented patients, 11 underwent successful resection and one had unresectable tumor. The patient’s serum creatinine was assessed initially and then twice after stenting (48 h and 5 days). Serum creatinine was also estimated 24 h after excision of the tumor. In the successfully stented and operated patients, mean initial creatinine was 7.85. The mean creatinine at 48 h and 5 days after stenting was 4.29 and 1.19 respectively. The mean creatinine 24 h after resection of the tumor was 1.04. Of the non-stented patients, 3 had ureteric injury during surgery. We conclude that preoperative ureteric stenting is helpful for optimization of patients with retroperitoneal tumors with obstructive uropathy.
