These two procedures offer a substantial base for conducting a typological analysis as a third procedure.
When indicated, CT may be performed as a second procedure to try to distinguish neoplasm from thrombosed vascular malformations and other lesions.
Cyclopexy was used as a second procedure after one procedure had failed in six cases (two cyclopexies, one argon laser and three cryopexies) and also in one case as a third procedure after failed cyclopexy and cryopexy).
We disagree with this view, because it has been clearly demonstrated that SLN biopsy can be safely performed as a second procedure after primary tumour excision [ 19, 20].
Overall, 7.4% of the patients had SLND performed as a second procedure (3.1% in the biopsy group vs 12.8% in the nonbiopsy group).
Sentinel lymph node dissection was performed as a second procedure if a permanent section of the excision specimen revealed invasive tumour in frozen section-negative cases or when frozen section was not available.
In all other cases, only the primary tumour excision should be performed and SLN biopsy should be reserved, as a second procedure, for patients found to have infiltration at the histologic examination of the primary tumour.
Dr. Wolff and Dr. Shinya, working with the Olympus Optical Company, made a further, groundbreaking advance when, using a design by Dr. Shinya, in 1969 they introduced a wire loop snare to cauterize a polyp as soon as it is found, making a second procedure unnecessary.
… The San Francisco 49ers placed center Daniel Kilgore on the reserve/physically unable to perform list as he works back from a second procedure on his left fibula that he fractured last October.
To cope with this limitation, we propose a second procedure consisting in adding new atoms as in the first procedure and deleting remote non-active ones (Figure 1b).
