Overall survival (OS) was calculated as the number of months from surgery (or core biopsy) to death or last follow-up date.
Time to Progression (TTP) was calculated as the number of months from surgery (or core biopsy) to progression.
1) Insufficient or suspicious mammography findings (breast mass, architectural distortion, and focal asymmetry) diagnosed as Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) 0, 4, 5; 2) The final diagnosis was confirmed by means of surgery or core needle biopsy; 3) Clinical and imaging follow-ups were performed for at least 12 months by using a combination of ultrasound and mammography.
The decline in undergraduate teaching in plastic surgery may affect student's decisions to pursue a career in the speciality and junior doctors may be insufficiently prepared for plastic surgery rotations during foundation or core surgical training.
Azeem Majeed, one of the GPs whose practice received the letter, calculates that the cut of just over £100,000 for this year amounts to about 10% of the surgery's core budget – a figure he estimates will be about average for GPs in the area affected.
Our study demonstrates that it is feasible to integrate cadaveric surgery into core training curriculum.
At surgery, the core of the carotid plaque was extracted through an incision in the far common arterial wall, embedded in OCT compound (Histolab Products), snap frozen in liquid isopentane and dry ice, and stored at –80°C.
Unlike the above research, our experience of hip-preserving surgery of core decompression followed by tightly impaction bone grafting combining with non-vascularized fibular allografting provided complete supporting for the femoral head.
We aimed to evaluate the clinical and radiological short-medium term outcomes for the treatment of bilateral osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) with hip-preserving surgery of core decompression followed by tightly impaction bone grafting combining with non-vascularized fibular allografting in one hip and concurrent one-stage total hip arthroplasty (THA) in the contralateral side.
All patients were diagnosed with bilateral ONFH and performed one-stage bilateral surgeries of core decompression followed by tightly impaction bone grafting combining with non-vascularized fibular allografting, and THAs in the contralateral hip between July 2004 and June 2013.
Lih-yuann Shih et al. [ 23] once reported 30 bilateral ONFH patients who underwent one-stage hip arthroplasties and the other hip was performed hip-preserving surgeries of core decompression and bone grafting acquired good outcomes.
