@DrJamesJakub @MayoClinicSurg 👍 Another option is submucosal flap or double flap technique after proximal gastrectomy, first proposed by Kamikawa in Japan. It has received a growing interest in Asian countries as opposed to double tract reconstruction

Early-stage TNBC who did not undergo adjuvant or neoadjuvant chemotherapy, breast cancer tissue with a higher abundance of tumor infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) levels was associated with significantly better survival.5-yr OS 95% vs 82%. DOI: 10.1001/jama.2024.3056. ->guide chemo

@MDingIt2023 @clemensmd @KellyKhunt Agree. Many medical oncologists still don’t know why we need 2mm margin for DCIS but no margin on ink for invasive tumor

Women with atypia detected more recently have lower rates of subsequent cancers detected, which might be associated with changes to mammography and biopsy techniques identifying forms of atypia that are more likely to represent overdiagnosis. BMJ DOI: 10.1136/bmj-2023-077039

The combination of screening, stage I- III treatment, and metastatic treatment -> a 58% reduction in breast CA mortality in 2019;
treatment of metastatic breast CA, treatment of stage I - III breast CA, and mammography screening ->29%, 47,% and 25% of the reduction respectively.

@SocSurgOnc Contralateral mastectomy without reconstruction to achieve asymmetry - with the popularity of aesthetic flat closure, either simultaneously or elective , I think it’s a option that we can provide for our patients. I am wondering how the society think about this concept .

[Society of Surgical Oncology @SocSurgOnc]

This #FeaturedArticle from Annals of Surgical Oncology demonstrates patients are satisfied with their decision to undergo contralateral mastectomy, supporting surgeons to offer women this option.

@MarkMishraMD Wondering is there a subgroup analysis of axillary recurrence for T3 patients Vs.T1-2, and patients with SLNs versus ALND

RT to regional nodes in early BC significantly reduced BC mortality and all-cause mortality in trials done after the 1980s, but not in older trials(EBCTCG).
15 yr BC mortality reduce for LN -, 1.6%;
1-3 LN +2.7%; ≥4 LN+ 4.5% .
