Curcumin is explored for prevention as well as treatment of OM. The article was organized via collection of enormous literatures by using the keywords like oral mucositis, chemotherapy, anti-inflammatory, curcumin, and clinical trials from search engines of different domains like Scopus, PubMed/MEDLINE, Science Direct, <i>and</i> Google Scholar with an increasing order of their year of publications.

Moreover, the expanded pathogenesis of the disease permits a sound predictability over the patient's risk, thereby directing its adaptability and management protocols towards the achievement of novel therapeutics. An augmented interest towards curcumin as a potential therapeutic emerged because of its easy accessibility, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antiulcer, antimicrobial, and wound-healing abilities along with reduced side effects.

Meticulous data collection included patient demographics, procedure details, and postoperative complications. Statistical analyses were employed to assess variables, and ethical principles were followed. Findings revealed no statistically significant differences in complication rates between ipsilateral and contralateral placements. The absence of infections, fractures, thrombosis, or catheter displacement underscored overall safety. Intriguingly, no discernible impact on breast cancer subtype distribution was observed, challenging conventional assumptions. This investigation into the laterality of port catheter placement in breast cancer patients yielded promising outcomes. The absence of significant complications and the negligible impact on cancer subtype distribution underscore the safety and efficacy of this intervention.

BIRADS ranks the test findings according to one of the seven categories, ranging from normal or benign to highly suspicious of cancer or malignant. This has specific accuracy for breast cancer. Out of the seven categories, BIRADS 4 is linked with a greater possibility for carcinoma breast. The research objective was to establish the rate of malignancy and clinical net result of BIRADS 4 lesions. The retrospective study, conducted in in Lakeshore Hospital and Research Centre (LHRC), Kochi, for a duration of 3 years, from December 2019 to December 2022, includes patients diagnosed as BIRADS 4 by mammographic or ultrasonographic or MRI findings. Previous medical records and electronic database were used to collect data. The study includes patients with BIRADS 4 lesions who went through surgery. Predictors such as patient demographics, comorbidities, and imaging features were considered. The rate of malignancy and positive predictive factor of BIRADS 4 lesions associated with carcinoma breast was calculated. A total of 394 lesions were classified as BIRADS 4 according to mammogram, ultrasound, or MRI for a time period of 3 years, from December 2019 to December 2022 at LHRC. Nevertheless, only 383 BIRADS 4 lesions for whom surgery was done were included in the survey. Out of the 383 lesions, the final histopathological report of the biopsied samples revealed 339 lesions to be malignant. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that menopausal status, mass lesions and spiculations in mammogram, and ductal abnormality in ultrasonography were greatly linked with carcinoma breast. Invasive breast carcinoma was the most common malignant lesion while fibro-cystic disease remained the predominant benign pathology. This study showed that majority of the BIRADS 4 lesions in LHRC were malignant. Both mammogram and ultrasonography were able to pick up early-stage breast cancer. Tissue diagnosis had higher sensitivity and is useful to avoid surgeries for non-significant lesions which can be followed up. Routine health check-up should be done according to the recent guidelines to detect early-stage breast cancer.</p>","PeriodicalId":46707,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Surgical Oncology","volume":"16 1","pages":"312-319"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11920482/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143671590","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The reconstruction of the IJV presents an opportunity to mitigate these risks and their subsequent effects, whether performed during or after the neck dissection. The external jugular vein is commonly utilized for anastomosis when reconstructing the IJV, but its availability may be limited at times, prompting the consideration of alternative options. We present the case of a 50-year-old male patient with supraglottic malignancy (cT2N1M0), who had previously undergone chemo-radiotherapy. After a disease-free interval of 9 months, the patient experienced a nodal recurrence at bilateral level III. Subsequently, he underwent bilateral lateral neck dissection, involving the sacrifice of bilateral internal jugular veins due to extensive extranodal spread. The left-sided internal jugular vein was re-anastomosed using a right cephalic vein interposition graft. During the last follow-up, the disease was locoregionally controlled, with no observed neck lymphedema, and the patient maintained a functional larynx with good speech and swallow.

The diagnosis of central airway lesions poses considerable challenges due to their varied presentations, resulting in delayed recognition and management.

We present our experience with the comprehensive evaluation and management of 11 cases of focal tracheobronchial lesions surgically treated at our institution, with an emphasis on lung parenchyma preservation. This is a retrospective analysis of prospectively maintained data of 11 patients who were surgically treated for focal tracheobronchial lesions between January 2021 and December 2023 at a tertiary care hospital in India. Their demographic data, clinical presentation, and perioperative details were recorded. All patients underwent MDCT chest, bronchoscopy, and pulmonary function tests as part of the workup for diagnosis and assessment. The study included nine male and two female patients with a mean age of 36.4 years (range 9-64 years). Surgical procedures included main bronchus sleeve resection (3 patients), sleeve lobectomies (3 patients), sleeve bi-lobectomy (1 patient), and tracheal resection with end-to-end anastomosis (4 patients). Postoperatively, one patient died due to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Pathological evaluation revealed malignant causes in 9 patients and non-neoplastic causes in 2 patients. The mean hospital stay was 6.5 days, with chest tube removal at 5.6 days. The average follow-up period was 8.2 months, ranging from 6 to 15 months. Based on our series, we ascertain that a complete resection, whenever feasible, offers optimal potential benefits and symptom alleviation for individuals with focal tracheobronchial lesions.
