Imaging of lumpectomy surface with large field-of-view confocal laser scanning microscopy ‘Histolog® scanner’ for breast margin assessment in comparison with conventional specimen radiography by Riku Togawa, Johanna Hederer, Moira Ragazzi, Thomas Bruckner, Sarah Fastner, Christina Gomez, André Hennigs, Juliane Nees, André Pfob, Fabian Riedel, Benedikt Schäfgen, Anne Stieber, Michael P. Lux, Jörg Heil, Michael Golatta

“…We evaluated the feasibility and the performance of the Histolog® Scanner (HS) to correctly identify infiltrated margins in clinical practice of lumpectomy specimens. It was extrapolated if the utilization of the HS has the potential to reduce infiltrated margins and therefore reduce re-operation rates in patients undergoing breast conserving surgery (BCS) due to a primarily diagnosed breast cancer including ductal carcinoma in situ. …”

Multiple levels paravertebral block versus morphine patient-controlled analgesia for postoperative analgesia following breast cancer surgery with unilateral lumpectomy, and axillary lymph nodes dissection by Summayah Fallatah, W F Mousa

“…Conclusion: Multiple levels PVB is an effective regional anesthetic technique for postoperative pain management, it provides superior analgesia with less narcotics consumption, and fewer side-effects compared with PCA morphine for patients with breast cancer who undergo unilateral lumpectomy, with axillary lymph nodes dissection.…”

Does Nipple-Ward Positive Margin Contribute to a Higher Rate of Re-Excision Procedures After a Lumpectomy with Pathology-Confirmed Positive Margins?... by Bhimani F, Lin S, McEvoy M, Cavalli A, Obaid L, Chen Y, Gupta A, Pastoriza J, Shihabi A, Feldman S

“…Taking an additional shave during initial lumpectomy decreases re-excision rates. However, planning a lumpectomy procedure with a more elliptical rather than a spherical resection with additional cavity shave (ie, larger volume) in the nipple-ward direction and minimizing the remaining cavity shaves so the total volume resected remains unchanged. …”
