Despite the increasing usage and importance of bedside ultrasound, a standard and well-structured training program for surgical residents is still lacking. This study assessed and evaluated the effectiveness of our new 8-weeks ultrasound course for surgical residents. Methods: Twenty-two residents from the department of general surgery from a tertiary care hospital in Korea attended the newly designed 8-weeks of bedside ultrasound training course in the surgical intensive care unit. A multimodal approach was used including didactic lectures about the basics of ultrasound as well as daily hands-on ultrasound examinations of patients under the supervision of an instructor. Participants documented their ultrasound findings and determined self-proficiency in ultrasound techniques using a 5-point Likert scale. Results: After the educational intervention, the proficiency scores of the residents showed a significant improvement in every element (P < 0.001). Proficiency scores also showed a significant improvement regardless of their previous exposure to ultrasound manipulation. Among the most perceived barriers in using bedside ultrasound were lack of education (43%) and lack of a feedback system (29%). Conclusion: The confidence of surgical residents in their use of bedside ultrasound could be improved with a well-structured training program. In addition, a short and intense program may help them to overcome the barriers that they may perceive to using bedside ultrasound. The authors believe such programs should be encouraged in all surgical residencies so that residents can competently use bedside ultrasound for the primary care of critically ill patients.","PeriodicalId":33937,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Surgical Ultrasound","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45419268","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although B-mode and Doppler ultrasonography are both sensitive for the diagnosis of thyroid lesions, they lack specificity in differentiating benign from malignant nodules. Elastography has been described as an accurate predictor of malignancy by determining tissue elasticity. There are several meth-ods utilized to evaluate the stiffness of normal tissue and the thyroid nodule, such as strain elastography, acoustic radiation force impulse, and shear wave elastography. Many studies show that elastography has both high sensitivity and specificity that approaches 100% for the determination of thyroid carcinoma. In addition, elastography also has a very high negative predictive value and thus, may also be helpful in the identification of thyroid nodules that do not need further diagnostic evaluation, including fine needle aspiration cytology. However, in the light of current evidence, there is a need for standardization and consensus on the most optimum elastography acquisition process. The purpose of this review is to provide a com-prehensive summary of the use of elastography in the evaluation of thyroid nodules.","PeriodicalId":33937,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Surgical Ultrasound","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46592968","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although there have been no severe procedure- or device-related adverse events, the post-treatment complex hypersensitivity and irritation reactions (CHAIR) might be a troublesome complication. Methods: A retrospective review was performed from prospectively collected data of CAC patients. The CAC was performed in patients with symptomatic great saphenous veins (GSV), small saphenous veins (SSV), and/or accessory saphenous veins (ASV) in a single session. We assessed the possible risk factors for the development of a hypersensitivity reaction including the amount of injected adhesive, access site, treated segment, compression stocking application, and other clinical factors. For the statistical analyses, data were analyzed using the IBM SPSS Statistics ver. 22.0 (IBM Co., Armonk, NY, USA). P-value <0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results: During the study period, 190 saphenous veins were treated in 100 patients. Sixty-four (64%) patients were female. The mean age was 55.5 ± 12.8 years (19-84). Complete occlusion was achieved in all patients. After CAC, the mean visual analogue scale (VAS) was 2.59 and 0.32 on postoperative 0 and 7 days, respectively (P < 0.001). Post-treat-ment CHAIR occurred in 5 (5%) patients. The significant risk factors for the development of CHAIR were younger age, GSV treatment, and below-the-knee access site for the introduction of a catheter. Conclusion: CHAIR occurred when the adhesive was injected at the below-the-knee GSV segment. The mechanical irritation due to knee joint movement might be a possible mechanism for the development of the hypersensitivity reaction.","PeriodicalId":33937,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Surgical Ultrasound","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46501649","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Results: Regardless of whether or not NAC was performed, the CNB evaluation of the metastatic axillary lymph nodes had a 100.0% sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value, and accuracy, except for one case with an inadequate sample. In the FNAC group, the false-negative rate was higher in patients with breast cancer who received NAC before evaluating the lymph nodes (9.1% vs. 7.7%).

Over the years, axillary staging has evolved from a radical axillary lymph node dissection to a more conservative sentinel lymph node biopsy. The main goal of axillary imaging techniques is to identify metastatic lymph nodes with optimal accuracy, high enough to initially se-lect patients for an upfront lymph node dissection. Features suggestive of an axillary lymph node metastasis may be seen with a range of imaging modalities. On the other hand, ultrasonography is the method of choice for evaluating the node morphology and allowing im-age-guided interventions of abnormal nodes. Gray-scale ultrasonography is not perfect on its own. Newer techniques, such as elastography or contrast-enhanced ultrasonography, have shown promise in identifying axillary lymph node metastases.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a more recent modality than ultrasonography (US), but the role of MRI in patients with a dense breast is still controversial. This comparative study analyzed the relationship between the preoperative radiological and the postoperative pathological tumor size for young breast cancer patients. Methods: All breast cancers diagnosed in patients 45 years or younger from January 2016 to December 2018 were reviewed. Tumor size measurements obtained on breast US and MRI were compared for accuracy with those obtained in the final pathology results. Patients with only microcalcification on imaging modalities and those who had undergone neoadjuvant chemotherapy were excluded. Results: A total of 103 breast cancer patients were included in this study. Of the 103 breast cancers with both imaging modalities performed, 86 (83.5%) were infiltrating ductal carcinomas and 17 (16.5%) were ductal carcinoma in situ. The mean tumor size measured on MRI was significantly greater than that measured on pathology (18.5 ± 11.0 mm vs. 16.6 ± 8.5 mm), whereas the sizes measured on US was not significantly different from that measured on pathology (16.5 ± 9.5 mm vs. 16.6 ± 8.5 mm).

Despite this, there have been few studies on the femoral artery IMT. This study examined the correlation between the carotid and femoral IMT. The findings suggest that both the carotid and femoral IMT need to be measured for a proper evaluation of early arterial disease. Methods: This retrospective study included 39 patients who underwent carotid artery duplex, lower extremity duplex, and coronary artery angiography or CT for a health checkup in the authors’ health promotion center from January 2015 to December 2017. The carotid and femoral IMT were measured at three places from bifurcation using B-mode. The coronary artery disease (CAD), carotid artery stenosis (CAS), and peripheral artery occlusive disease (PAD) were defined by stenosis over 50% in duplex and CT angiogram. The maximum and sum of the IMT in both the arterial disease group and no arterial disease group were compared. Results: This study included 25 patients with arterial diseases from 39 enrolled patients 22 patients with CAD (51.2%), eight patients with CAS (20.5%), and seven patients with PAOD (17.9%). The total arterial disease including any one of the above three arterial diseases correlated with the maximum values of the femoral IMT (R = 0.322, P = 0.023) and the sum of the femoral IMT (R = 0.346, P = 0.015).

However, this procedure requires repeated revascularization and additional stenting. Directional atherectomy (DA) has been reported to be a modality that requires less frequent use of stenting. The aim of this study was to compare the duplex-based outcomes between PTA and DA for treating IAOD. Methods: A retrospective review of consecutive patients with IAOD treated with PTA and DA was completed. The demographics and procedural data were obtained. A provisional stent was placed in those cases with flow-limiting dissection and residual stenosis after PTA or DA. Technical success was defined as a residual stenosis < 30%. The primary patency rate was evaluated by performing duplex scanning. The clinical outcomes and frequency of stent placement for each procedure were evaluated. For statistical analysis, the data was analyzed using SPSS 22.0 software (IBM Corp, Chicago, Ill). All P values were considered significant if less than 0.05. Results: Seventy-one patients were included in the study. Their mean age was 71.5 ± 10.2 years. The male-to-female ratio was 49:22. Thirty-three patients underwent PTA. DA was performed in 38 patients (42 limbs). Technical success was achieved in all the patients. The duplex-based clinical outcome and limb salvage rate were similar in the two groups. Bailout stent placement was performed in 8 of 33 patients (24.2%) in the PTA group and in no patient in the DA group.

Endovenous heat-induced thrombosis (EHIT) is a unique complication for this procedure. This study evaluated the incidence, risk factors, and clinical consequences of EHIT. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the data of patients with varicose veins who underwent radiofrequency ablation (RFA). Duplex ultrasonography (DUS) was performed within 1 week and then 6 months after the procedure. If EHIT was found at the first postprocedural DUS, then monthly surveillance was done. The incidence of EHIT and the risk factors were analyzed. The clinical consequence was finally investigated. Results: During the study period, a total of 1,247 saphenous veins in 783 patients underwent RFA. Four hundred fifty-seven (58.4%) patients were women. The mean age was 52.9 ± 12.4 years (range: 8–85 years). EHIT was present in 7 (0.6%) saphenous veins in 7 (0.9%) patients. EHIT developed in 6 great saphenous veins (GSV) and 1 small saphenous vein. EHIT class I, II, and III were 3, 2, and 2 patients, respectively. The diameter of GSV ≥ 6 mm was the significant risk factor for the occurrence of EHIT. Six EHITs spontaneously resolved within 5 weeks after the procedure. One EHIT was resolved in 7 months after the procedure. No incidences of pulmonary embolism occurred. Conclusion: EHIT was a rare complication after RFA. Moreover, it spontaneously resolved without any clinical sequelae. Thus, performing routine DUS is not recommended to evaluate EHIT in the asymptomatic patient.","PeriodicalId":33937,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Surgical Ultrasound","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45214592","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
