Abstract
PURPOSE Pegfilgrastim is a widely used long-acting granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) that prevents febrile neutropenia (FN) in patients with breast cancer receiving chemotherapy. This study aimed to evaluate the incidence of chemotherapy-related FN events and other adverse events (AEs) during chemotherapy in Korean patients with breast cancer treated with pegfilgrastim as secondary prophylactic support. MATERIALS AND METHODS This was a multicenter, open-label, prospective, observational study. A total of 1255 patients were enrolled from 43 institutions. The incidence of FN was evaluated as the primary endpoint. The secondary endpoints included (1) incidence of bone pain, (2) proportion of patients with a relative dose intensity (RDI) of ≥85%, and (3) proportion of patients with AE. RESULTS Pegfilgrastim administration reduced FN by 11.8-1.6%. The highest incidence of bone pain was observed at the time point of the 1st day after the administration and mild bone pain was the most common of all bone pain severity. The mean RDI was 98.5 ± 7.3%, and the proportion of the patients with and RDI≥85% was 96.9% (1169/1233). AEs were reported in 52.6% of the patients, and serious drug reactions occurred in only 0.7%. CONCLUSION The use of pegfilgrastim as secondary prophylaxis was effective and safe for preventing FN in patients with breast cancer who were treated with chemotherapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We conducted this study to report our novel robotic thyroidectomy using gas-insufflation one-step single-port transaxillary (GOSTA) approach and compare it with a conventional transaxillary (CTA) approach using a retraction method for intraoperative and postoperative outcomes. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 354 patients who underwent robotic thyroidectomy between January 2019 and April 2023. Of these patients, 143 underwent the procedure through the GOSTA approach, which involves a small incision of 3 cm along the axillary folds with both arms down and a gas-insufflation, from skin flap creation to the completion of thyroidectomy as a one-step single-port procedure without the need for a retractor. The remaining 211 patients underwent the CTA approach. We analyzed the GOSTA approach and compared the surgical outcomes of the GOSTA (n = 100) and CTA (n = 167) approaches in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer who underwent thyroid lobectomy. RESULTS Out of the 143 patients who underwent the GOSTA approach, 12 underwent total thyroidectomy and 9 underwent lateral neck lymph node dissection with total thyroidectomy. GOSTA-thyroid lobectomy was performed on 122 patients; of these, 100 were diagnosed with differentiated thyroid carcinoma. A comparative study with the CTA approach was only conducted in patients who underwent thyroid lobectomy. No significant differences were found in operative time, hospital stay, or complications between the two groups. CONCLUSIONS Despite proceeding in one-step with a single smaller incision, from skin flap creation to the completion of thyroidectomy, the GOSTA approach is as feasible and safe as the CTA approach. Additionally, the GOSTA approach allows for thyroidectomy without using a retractor and reduces the workload for the surgeon and assistants.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION SB3 is a trastuzumab biosimilar approved in Australia, Brazil, Canada, the European Union, the Republic of Korea, Switzerland, and the United States. This real-world study evaluated safety and effectiveness of SB3 as part of the Korean post approval safety management system. METHODS This post-marketing surveillance in Korea included patients in line with approved indications, i.e. patients with early or metastatic breast cancer or metastatic gastric cancer. Safety outcomes were adverse events and adverse drug reactions. Effectiveness outcomes were tumor response and event-free survival. RESULTS 424 patients were evaluated: 366 patients (86%) with early breast cancer, 53 patients (13%) with metastatic breast cancer, and 5 patients (1%) with metastatic gastric cancer. Among patients with breast cancer, adverse events (mostly mild) and adverse drug reactions were reported by 158 (37.7%) and 57 (13.6%) patients, respectively. Most patients with an AE (141, 75.9%) had no change in treatment schedule. Treatment was temporarily suspended in 14 (8.2%) patients with an AE and completely discontinued in 7 (3.7%). Among patients with early and metastatic breast cancer who were evaluated for efficacy, objective response rates were 82.7% and 38.3%, respectively. Pathological complete response was 64.6% in patients with early breast cancer. DISCUSSION/CONCLUSION Safety and efficacy of SB3 demonstrated in this real-world study were comparable with previous studies of reference trastuzumab.

Abstract
Purpose This study aimed to compare the intraoperative and postoperative outcomes between robotic and laparoscopic transperitoneal adrenalectomies. Methods In this retrospective study, 93 patients underwent adrenalectomy using 2 surgical modalities: 45 patients underwent adrenalectomy using the da Vinci Xi system (robotic group), and 48 patients using laparoscopic devices (laparoscopic group). We compared the operation time, intraoperative bleeding, and hospital stay according to the surgical modality and tumor characteristics. Results There were no significant differences in the operative time (P = 0.827), hospital stay (P = 0.177), and intraoperative bleeding (P = 0.174) between the groups. However, the robotic group showed a lower coefficient of variation in total operative time than that of the laparoscopic group (100.6 ± 23.3 minutes vs. 101.9±32.7 minutes, 0.230 vs. 0.321). When divided into 2 subgroups based on the tumor size (<3 cm and ≥3 cm), the robotic group with a tumor sized >3 cm had a shorter operative time than that of the laparoscopic group (P = 0.032). The robotic group also had fewer cases of intraoperative bleeding (P = 0.034). Conclusions Compared to the laparoscopic transperitoneal adrenalectomy, the robotic one achieved a lower deviation in total operative time and showed less bleeding and a shorter operative time, especially for tumors sized >3 cm.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There are few prospective studies on the correlations between MRI features and whole RNA-sequencing data in breast cancer according to molecular subtypes. The purpose of our study was to explore the association between genetic profiles and MRI phenotypes of breast cancer and to identify imaging markers that influences the prognosis and treatment according to subtypes. METHODS From June 2017 to August 2018, MRIs of 95 women with invasive breast cancer were prospectively analyzed, using the breast imaging-reporting and data system and texture analysis. Whole RNA obtained from surgical specimens was analyzed using next-generation sequencing. The association between MRI features and gene expression profiles was analyzed in the entire tumor and subtypes. Gene networks, enriched functions, and canonical pathways were analyzed using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis. The P value for differential expression was obtained using a parametric F test comparing nested linear models and adjusted for multiple testing by reporting Q value. RESULTS In 95 participants (mean age, 53 years ± 11 [standard deviation]), mass lesion type was associated with upregulation of CCL3L1 (sevenfold) and irregular mass shape was associated with downregulation of MIR421 (sixfold). In estrogen receptor-positive cancer with mass lesion type, CCL3L1 (21-fold), SNHG12 (11-fold), and MIR206 (sevenfold) were upregulated, and MIR597 (265-fold), MIR126 (12-fold), and SOX17 (fivefold) were downregulated. In triple-negative breast cancer with increased standard deviation of texture analysis on precontrast T1-weighted imaging, CLEC3A (23-fold), SRGN (13-fold), HSPG2 (sevenfold), KMT2D (fivefold), and VMP1 (fivefold) were upregulated, and IGLC2 (73-fold) and PRDX4 (sevenfold) were downregulated (all, P < 0.05 and Q < 0.1). Gene network and functional analysis showed that mass type estrogen receptor-positive cancers were associated with cell growth, anti-estrogen resistance, and poor survival. CONCLUSION MRI characteristics are associated with the different expressions of genes related to metastasis, anti-drug resistance, and prognosis, depending on the molecular subtypes of breast cancer.

Abstract
There are few radiogenomic studies to correlate ultrasound features of breast cancer with genomic changes. We investigated whether vascular ultrasound phenotypes are associated with breast cancer gene profiles for predicting angiogenesis and prognosis. We prospectively correlated quantitative and qualitative features of microvascular ultrasound (vascular index, vessel morphology, distribution, and penetrating vessel) and contrast-enhanced ultrasound (time-intensity curve parameters and enhancement pattern) with genomic characteristics in 31 breast cancers. DNA obtained from breast tumors and normal tissues were analyzed using targeted next-generation sequencing of 105 genes. The single-variant association test was used to identify correlations between vascular ultrasound features and genomic profiles. Chi-square analysis was used to detect single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with ultrasound features by estimating p values and odds ratios (ORs). Eight ultrasound features were significantly associated with 9 SNPs (p < 0.05). Among them, four ultrasound features were positively associated with 5 SNPs: high vascular index with rs1136201 in ERBB2 (p = 0.04, OR = 7.75); large area under the curve on contrast-enhanced ultrasound with rs35597368 in PDGFRA (p = 0.04, OR = 4.07); high peak intensity with rs35597368 in PDGFRA (p = 0.049, OR = 4.05) and rs2305948 in KDR (p = 0.04, OR = 5.10); and long mean transit time with rs2275237 in ARNT (p = 0.02, OR = 10.25) and rs755793 in FGFR2 (p = 0.02, OR = 10.25). We identified 198 non-silent SNPs in 71 various cancer-related genes. Vascular ultrasound features can reflect genomic changes associated with angiogenesis and prognosis in breast cancer.

Abstract
Robotic surgical systems have evolved over time. The da Vinci Xi system was developed in 2014 and was expected to solve the shortcomings of the previous S system. Therefore, we conducted this study to compare these 2 systems and identify if the Xi system truly improves surgical outcomes.In this retrospective study, a total of 86 patients with unilateral papillary thyroid carcinoma without central lymph node involvement underwent gasless transaxillary hemithyroidectomy using 2 robotic systems, the da Vinci S and Xi. Forty patients were in the da Vinci S group and 46 patients were in the da Vinci Xi group. All surgeries were performed by 1 surgeon (YWC). All surgery video files were analyzed to compare the duration of each surgical step.The total operation time was significantly shorter in the Xi group than in the S group (153.0 minutes vs 105.7 minutes, P < .01). Time for robot docking was shorter in the Xi group (19.8 minutes vs 10.6 minutes, P < .01), and all procedures performed in the console also required a shorter time in this group. The overall complication rate did not differ significantly (P = .464).The da Vinci Xi system made robotic thyroidectomy easier and faster without increasing the complication rate. It is a safe and valuable system for robotic thyroidectomy.

Abstract
Purpose Endoscopic breast surgery for patients with breast cancer was introduced for its superior cosmetic outcomes; it was initially studied in the field of breast-conserving surgery and, more recently, in robotic-assisted nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM). The main purpose of this study was to investigate the feasibility and safety of endoscopic NSM (E-NSM) in patients with breast cancer by comparing E-NSM and conventional NSM (C-NSM). Methods Between May 2017 and October 2020, we retrieved the records of 45 patients who underwent NSM with permanent silicone implants and divided them into the E-NSM group (20 patients) and the C-NSM group (25 patients), depending on the use of the endoscopic device. We also analyzed demographic information, pathology, operative time, and complications. Results No significant differences were observed between the 2 groups based on demographic information, postoperative pathological data, mean length of hospital stay, and total number of complications. The mean preparation time for surgery was comparable between both groups. Compared to the C-NSM group, the E-NSM group had a significantly longer mean operative time and, subsequently, a significantly longer mean total operative time and number of complications. Conclusion The results showed that E-NSM was feasible and safe with a more inconspicuous incision in patients with breast cancer.

Abstract
Purpose Approval of eribulin for metastatic breast cancer was based on data primarily from Western patients, and there is a paucity of data on the effectiveness and safety of eribulin for Asian patients. To determine the effectiveness and safety of eribulin in Korean women with breast cancer in a real-world setting, we conducted a nationwide, multicenter, retrospective study. Methods Patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer who were treated with eribulin in 14 centers throughout Korea were included in this study. Eribulin was generally administered at a dose of 1.23 mg/m2 (equivalent to 1.4 mg/m2 eribulin mesylate) by intravenous infusion for 2–5 min, or as a diluted solution, on Days 1 and 8 of every 21-day cycle. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival (PFS) rate at 6 months. Secondary endpoints included median PFS, overall survival (OS), time-to-treatment failure (TTF), tumor response rate, and incidence of hematologic treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs). Results The safety and full analysis populations included 398 and 360 (38 had no efficacy data) patients, respectively. The PFS rate at 6 months was 37.8%. Median PFS, OS, and TTF were 134, 631, and 120 days, respectively. Objective response rate, clinical benefit rate, and disease control rate were 18.1%, 50.6%, and 49.4%, respectively. Hematologic TEAEs were reported in 65.1% of patients; neutropenia (56.8%) and anemia (11.3%) were most common. Conclusion Real-world effectiveness and safety of eribulin in Korean breast cancer patients were consistent with previous reports; no new safety concerns were identified. Metastatic breast cancer patients were treated with eribulin (1.23 mg/m2, IV). Progression-free survival rate at 6 months was 37.8% in eribulin-treated patients. Median progression-free and overall survivals were 134 and 631 days, respectively. Hematologic treatment-emergent adverse events were reported in 65.1% of patients. Effectiveness and safety of eribulin were consistent with previous reports.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to estimate the incidence and clinical significance of thyroid isthmus agenesis based on multi-detector CT imaging in a large-scale study. METHODS Data from 1601 patients who underwent neck multi-detector CT at our institution from January 2015 to March 2016 were included in this retrospective study. The morphology of each patient's thyroid gland was evaluated. We classified thyroid isthmus agenesis into two subgroups according to the thickness of the medial margin: clear-cut type (>4 mm) or tapering-edge type (≤4 mm). Associated thyroid pathologies were also evaluated. RESULTS Thyroid isthmus agenesis was present in 69 patients (41 males, 28 females), and its incidence was 4.77%. Eleven patients (0.76%) had the clear-cut type and 58 patients (4.01%) had the tapering-edge type. Papillary thyroid carcinoma was diagnosed in 4 patients (5.7% of isthmus agenesis patients). A total of 7 patients underwent thyroid function testing during the course of this study; 1 of these patients presented with borderline hyperthyroidism, and the remaining 6 were in a euthyroid state. The clear-cut type showed a statistically significant narrow gap and a high incidence of pyramidal lobes compared to the tapering-edge type. CONCLUSION Thyroid isthmus agenesis is not a rare developmental anomaly of the thyroid gland on multi-detector CT. Based on the metastatic pathophysiology of differentiated thyroid cancer, more extended indications for lobectomy are expected in differentiated thyroid cancer patients with thyroid isthmus agenesis.

Abstract
Background To analyze oncologic outcomes and reconstruction quality in locally advanced stage breast cancer after performing immediate autologous breast reconstruction (IABR). Methods From 2007 to 2014, data of patients aged ≤70 years old with stage II-III breast cancer who received total mastectomy (TM) were extracted from medical records. Exclusion criteria were: previous contralateral breast cancer, follow-up loss before adjuvant therapy completion, and artificial reconstruction. Patients were divided into two groups: (I) TM alone, and (II) TM + IABR. Overall survival (OS) and loco-regional recurrence free survival (LRRFS) were calculated. Times of minor revision, abnormal image findings in breast, and change of breast height were observed. Results Sixty-one of 188 patients received IABR after TM. Stage IIIB-C was the most important prognostic factor for OS (P<0.001) and LRRFS (P<0.001). For stage II, five-year TM and TM + IABR OS rates were 96.8% and 100% (P=0.324), respectively. For stage IIIB-C, five-year TM and TM + IABR OS rates were 57.6% and 62.5% (P=0.544), respectively. For stage II, five-year TM and TM + IABR LRRFS were 98.1% and 95.7% (P=0.998), respectively. For stage IIIB-C, five-year TM and TM + IABR LRRFS were 70.8% and 62.5% (P=0.378), respectively. Two major complications were observed after IABR. Minor revisions, abnormal image findings, and change of breast height were common without showing significant relation with adjuvant radiotherapy or tumor stage. Conclusions IABR showed feasible oncologic outcomes in 5-year follow-up. Adjuvant radiotherapy had little effect on quality of reconstruction. However, IABR in advanced stage should be cautiously applied considering expected survival and minor problems after IABR.

Abstract
Background Radiogenomic investigations for breast cancer provide an understanding of tumor heterogeneity and discover image phenotypes of genetic variation. However, there is little research on the correlations between US features of breast cancer and whole-transcriptome profiling. Purpose To explore US phenotypes reflecting genetic alteration relevant to breast cancer treatment and prognosis by comparing US images of tumor with their RNA sequencing results. Materials and Methods From January to October 2016, B-mode and vascular US images in 31 women (mean age, 49 years ± 9 [standard deviation]) with breast cancer were prospectively analyzed. B-mode features included size, shape, echo pattern, orientation, margin, and calcifications. Vascular features were evaluated by using microvascular US and contrast agent-enhanced US: vascular index, vessel morphologic features, distribution, penetrating vessels, enhancement degree, order, margin, internal homogeneity, and perfusion defect. RNA sequencing was conducted with total RNA obtained from a surgical specimen by using next-generation sequencing. US features were compared with gene expression profiles, and ingenuity pathway analysis was used to analyze gene networks, enriched functions, and canonical pathways associated with breast cancer. The P value for differential expression was extracted by using a parametric F test comparing nested linear models. Results Thirteen US features were associated with various patterns of 340 genes (P < .05). Nonparallel orientation at B-mode US was associated with upregulation of TFF1 (log twofold change [log2FC] = 4.0; P < .001), TFF3 (log2FC = 2.5; P < .001), AREG (log2FC = 2.6; P = .005), and AGR3 (log2FC = 2.6; P = .003). Complex vessel morphologic structure was associated with upregulation of FZD8 (log2FC = 2.0; P = .01) and downregulation of IGF1R (log2FC = -2.0; P = .006) and CRIPAK (log2FC = -2.4; P = .01). The top networks with regard to orientation or vessel morphologic structure were associated with cell cycle, death, and proliferation. Conclusion Compared with RNA sequencing, B-mode and vascular US features reflected genomic alterations associated with hormone receptor status, angiogenesis, or prognosis in breast cancer. © RSNA, 2020 Online supplemental material is available for this article.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the value of ultrasound (US) microflow assessment in distinguishing malignant from benign solid breast masses as well as the association between US parameters and histologic microvessel density (MVD). MATERIALS AND METHODS Ninety-eight breast masses (57 benign and 41 malignant) were examined using Superb Microvascular Imaging (SMI) and contrast-enhanced US (CEUS) before biopsy. Two radiologists evaluated the quantitative and qualitative vascular parameters on SMI (vascular index, morphology, distribution, and penetration) and CEUS (time-intensity curve analysis and enhancement characteristics). US parameters were compared between benign and malignant masses and the diagnostic performance was compared between SMI and CEUS. Subgroup analysis was performed according to lesion size. The effect of vascular parameters on downgrading Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS) category 4A masses was evaluated. The association between histologic MVD and US parameters was analyzed. RESULTS Malignant masses were associated with a higher vascular index (15.1 ± 7.3 vs. 5.9 ± 5.6), complex vessel morphology (82.9% vs. 42.1%), central vascularity (95.1% vs. 59.6%), penetrating vessels (80.5% vs. 31.6%) on SMI (all, p < 0.001), as well as higher peak intensity (37.1 ± 25.7 vs. 17.0 ± 15.8, p < 0.001), slope (10.6 ± 11.2 vs. 3.9 ± 4.2, p = 0.001), area (1035.7 ± 726.9 vs. 458.2 ± 410.2, p < 0.001), hyperenhancement (95.1% vs. 70.2%, p = 0.005), centripetal enhancement (70.7% vs. 45.6%, p = 0.023), penetrating vessels (65.9% vs. 22.8%, p < 0.001), and perfusion defects (31.7% vs. 3.5%, p < 0.001) on CEUS (p ≤ 0.023). The areas under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUCs) of SMI and CEUS were 0.853 and 0.841, respectively (p = 0.803). In 19 masses measuring < 10 mm, central vascularity on SMI was associated with malignancy (100% vs. 38.5%, p = 0.018). Considering all benign SMI parameters on the BI-RADS assessment, unnecessary biopsies could be avoided in 12 category 4A masses with improved AUCs (0.500 vs. 0.605, p < 0.001). US vascular parameters associated with malignancy showed higher MVD (p ≤ 0.016). MVD was higher in malignant masses than in benign masses, and malignant masses negative for estrogen receptor or positive for Ki67 had higher MVD (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION US microflow assessment using SMI and CEUS is valuable in distinguishing malignant from benign solid breast masses, and US vascular parameters are associated with histologic MVD.

Abstract
Abstract
Purpose: We analyzed oncologic outcomes and reconstruction quality in locally advanced stage breast cancer after performing immediate autologous breast reconstruction (IABR).
Methods: From 2007 to 2014, data of patients with stage II-III breast cancer of ≤ 70-years-old who received total mastectomy (TM) from two institutions were extracted. Exclusion criteria were: previous contralateral breast cancer, follow-up loss before adjuvant therapy completion, and artificial reconstruction. Patients were divided into two groups; 1) TM alone and 2) TM+IABR. Overall survival (OS) and loco-regional recurrence free survival (LRRFS) were calculated and minor revision, abnormal volume on CT, and breast height change were observed.
Results: Sixty-one of 188 patients received IABR after TM. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy and postoperative radiotherapy was done in 27 and 80 patients, respectively. Fifty-nine percent, 19.2%, and 21.8% of patients were in stage II, IIIA, and IIIB-C, respectively. Stage IIIB-C was the most important prognostic factor for OS and LRRFS. In a median of 56.8 follow-up months, 5-year TM and TM+IABR OS rate were 96.8% and 100% for stage II (P=0.324) and 57.6%, 95.5% and 91.7% for stage IIIA (P=0.698), and 62.5% for stage IIIB-C (P=0.544), respectively. Five-year TM and TM+IABR LRRFS were 98.1% and 95.7% for stage II (P=0.998)91.1% and 100% for stage IIIA (P=0.277), and 70.8% and 62.5% for stage IIIB-C (P=0.378), respectively. However, two locoregional failures after 5-years were developed in stage IIIB-C of TM+IABR at 71 and 94 months. Minor revisions 3 months of IABR, including two major complications, were done in 49.2%. The reduction of breast height was 21.2% (11/52) and 31.9% (15/47) in about 18 months and about 42 months observations after IABR, respectively. The volume of abnormal imaging was over 10 cc in 27.3% (15/55) on CT of 6 months after IABR. Although minor revisions, abnormal volume on CT, and breast height change were common, they were not related to therapeutic methods, including radiotherapy and tumor stage.
Conclusions: In about 5-years follow-up, IABR did not aggravate oncologic outcomes, and adjuvant radiotherapy was not closely related with quality of reconstruction. It must be considered, however, that absolute oncologic outcomes of advanced stage were not sufficient, and minor problems post-IABR were commonly developed.

Abstract
Background Insulin receptor substrate 1 (IRS-1) has been known to be an associated factor with breast cancer progression. However, there has been little study with respect to the relationship between the expression of IRS-1 and breast cancer prognosis in clinical practice. In this study, we evaluated the impact of the estrogen receptor (ER) and IRS-1 on the recurrence and survival of breast cancer patients. Methods We analyzed the pathologic finding of 376 tissue samples from breast cancer patients who received proper treatment between January 1990 and December 2006 using the tissue microarray. We measured the expression of ER and IRS-1 by immunohistochemistry staining and analyzed the difference of recurrence and survival rate in each subgroup of ER and IRS-1. Results Our results show that there is a significant difference of disease-free survival (DFS) according to ER and IRS-1 subgroups with both univariate and multivariate analyses. Specifically, ER-positive and IRS-1-positive breast cancer samples showed improved DFS compared to ER-positive and IRS-1-negative breast cancer (adjusted hazard ratio: 2.17; 95% confidence interval: 1.15-4.09; P = 0.01). There was a difference of overall survival according to ER and IRS-1 subgroups by univariate analysis (P = 0.01), but not by multivariate analysis (P = 0.36). Conclusion ER and IRS-1 subgroups appear to be critical factors for the prediction of breast cancer recurrence. In particular, we suggest that the patients who have ER-positive and IRS-1-negative breast cancer undergo more aggressive treatment because they have poorer prognoses.

Abstract
Purpose The incidence of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) arising from the isthmus is low; however, these tumors have aggressive clinical and pathological features. Moreover, the existing guidelines regarding the extent of surgery for this type of tumor are unclear. Methods This study enrolled 282 patients who underwent total thyroidectomy with bilateral central lymph node dissection. The patients were divided into 2 groups based on the location of the median line of the PTC. Group I included patients in whom the median line was located between the lateral margins of the trachea; group II included all others. We compared the 2 groups and conducted a multivariate analysis to assess risk factors for contralateral node metastasis from a PTC arising from the isthmus. Results Patients in group I had significantly higher frequencies of extrathyroidal extension and central lymph node metastasis. Group I also had a higher frequency of contralateral node metastasis, and a tumor size >1.0 cm was identified as an independent risk factor for contralateral node metastasis among patients in this group. Conclusion Bilateral central lymph node dissection could be considered for patients with isthmic PTCs >1.0 cm in size who have clinically suspicious node metastasis.

Abstract
Background Skin-sparing mastectomy (SSM) is increasingly used in patients with breast cancer. We compared the differences between use of electrocautery and LigaSure™ Small Jaw in patients with breast cancer who underwent SSM. Methods Between January 2012 and December 2015, 81 patients with breast cancer who underwent SSM were selected and were divided into the electrocautery group and the LigaSure™ Small Jaw group based on the devices that were used. Clinicopathological characteristics, body mass index, operative time, and weight of removed breast were obtained from medical records. Total amount and days of drain use, until removal, and postoperative skin necrosis, requiring debridement, were also analyzed. Results The study population consisted of 50 patients in the electrocautery group and 31 in the LigaSure™ Small Jaw group. The latter group has significantly shorter operative time (117.5 ± 16.9 vs. 104.0 ± 23.6 min, P = 0.004). The mean total volume of drainage was less (805 ± 278 vs. 694 ± 131 mL, P = 0.017) and mean duration of drainage was also significantly shorter in the LigaSure™ Small Jaw group (11.3 ± 2.5 vs. 10.1 ± 2.0 days, P = 0.029). Conclusions The use of LigaSure™ Small Jaw during skin-sparing mastectomy shortened the operative time and duration of drainage and reduced the total volume of drainage.

Abstract
Purpose The aim of this study was to assess the characteristics of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) in patients aged 65 and older in order to predict postoperative recurrence based on the results of ultrasonographic surveillance. Methods Among 1,494 patients (200 male and 1,294 female; mean age, 46.6±11.3 years) who underwent surgery for thyroid cancer at our institution between 2006 and 2015, we retrospectively enrolled 150 PTC patients (29 male and 121 female; mean age, 69.4±4.2 years). To identify the risk factors for recurrence, we analyzed age, gender, multiplicity, size, number, extrathyroidal extension (ETE) of the tumor, lymph node metastasis (LNM), type of surgery, and the dose of radioactive ablation using a Cox regression model to identify hazard ratios (HRs). Results Among the 115 asymptomatic patients with PTCs detected by screening ultrasonography (n=86), other cross-sectional imaging modalities (computed tomography or positron emission tomography-computed tomography, n=13), or incidentally through a surgical specimen (n=16), 78 patients were confirmed to have papillary thyroid microcarcinomas (PTMCs). The other 35 patients presented with palpable neck masses (n=25), vocal cord palsy (n=9) or blood-tinged sputum (n=1). During the follow-up period (mean, 43.6 months), 17 patients (12.5%) experienced recurrence in the neck. None of the patients died due to PTC-related recurrence or distant metastasis during the follow-up period. Cox regression analysis demonstrated that tumor size (HR, 2.12; P<0.001) and LNM (central LNM: HR, 9.08; P=0.004; lateral LNM: HR, 14.71; P=0.002; both central and lateral LNM: HR, 58.41; P<0.001) significantly increased the recurrence rate. ETE, LNM, and recurrence were significantly less frequent in PTMCs than in non-PTMC (all P<0.001). Conclusion PTCs of small size and absent LNM showed significantly better prognoses in patients 65 years and older.

Abstract
Purpose The lymph node ratio (LNR) is an important prognostic factor in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), but micrometastases in cervical lymph nodes (LNs) are not of great clinical importance. In this study, we analyzed the accuracy of prediction of the prognosis depending on whether micrometastases were included in the number of metastatic LNs when calculating LNR. Methods The study included 353 PTC patients who underwent total thyroidectomy with neck LN dissection, and calculated LNR by 2 methods according to whether micrometastases were included in the number of metastatic LNs: Method 1 did not and method 2 did include. To compare the predictive values of LNR by the 2 methods, correlation coefficients and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were analyzed. Results Positive correlations were found between LNR and preablation stimulated thyroglobulin (sTg) levels in both methods, but the correlation between method 1 LNR and preablation sTg level was significantly stronger than that for method 2 (Fisher z = 1.7, P = 0.045). The areas under these 2 independent ROC curves were analyzed; the prognostic efficacy of method 1 LNR was more accurate than that of method 2 LNR, and the difference was statistically significant (P = 0.0001). Conclusion Regional recurrence of PTC can be predicted more accurately by not including micrometastases in the number of metastatic LNs when calculating LNR.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recently, a number of studies have advocated the diagnostic benefit of contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) in the current ultrasound (US)-based preoperative evaluation of thyroid cancer. However, no study has been conducted to optimize a CECT protocol focusing on tumor conspicuity using a multi-detector CT scanner. This study aimed at determining the optimal scan delay for increased CT attenuation differences between thyroid cancer and parenchymal background using a biphasic CECT examination. METHODS This study retrospectively enrolled 84 patients (M:F = 7:77; Mage = 44.8 ± 10.9 years) with 87 papillary thyroid carcinomas (Msize = 14.1 mm) who consecutively underwent US and CECT examination prior to surgery. In each patient, CT scanning was taken twice-once with a 40-second delay and once with a 70-second delay-using a 64-channel multi-detector scanner. After obtaining the mean attenuation value (MAV) of the thyroid cancer and the ipsilateral parenchyma by drawing regions of interest on the CECT images based on their cytopathologic results and US findings, the parenchyma-cancer differences (PCD) between the early and delayed scans were simply compared using a paired t-test. Then, the mean differences in the MAVs of the thyroid cancer and ipsilateral parenchyma (hereafter abbreviated as Group) between the early and delayed scans (abbreviated as Time) were compared after adjusting for the other factors that significantly affected MAVs, such as concentration of iodinated contrast medium (abbreviated as CCM) and size of thyroid cancer (abbreviated as Size) using a repeated-measures general linear model. RESULTS Because the ipsilateral parenchyma exhibited significantly higher attenuation on the early scan and further decline on the delayed scan compared with thyroid cancer (p < 0.001), the PCD for thyroid cancer was significantly better with a 40-second scan delay than a 70-second delay (58.8 ± 36.6 Hounsfield units [HU] vs. 40.4 ± 25.6 HU; p < 0.001). Similar results were obtained from the repeated-measures general linear model that considered the effects of CCM, Size, Group, and Time, and the interaction of Group and Time. CONCLUSION Based on this CECT study that adjusted for the effects of CCM and size on MAV, early scans (e.g., 40-second scan delay) are helpful for improving the tumor conspicuity of thyroid cancer on CECT images.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The cervical lymph node metastasis (CLNM) of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC) is not uncommon. However, prophylactic cervical lymph node dissection in all PTMC is debatable. Molecular markers of predicting CLNM would help to decide to either do or not do cervical lymph node dissection which might increase morbidities. AIMS We aimed to characterize gene expression profiles and molecular markers of CLNM in PTMC. SETTINGS AND DESIGN The thyroid frozen tissues were obtained with from six PTMC patients, who underwent total thyroidectomy. METHODS We performed oligonucleotide microarray analysis with three PTMCs with CLNM and three without CLNM. Real-time quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction was used to validate the gene. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USED We used linear models for microarray data. RESULTS We identified 12 differentially expressed gene, and most one is endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase 2 (ERAP2). CONCLUSION ERAP2 might be associated with CLNM in PTMC.

Abstract
Aim: Although modern radiotherapy such as field-in-field technique decreased the radiation toxicity, skin reaction is still frequent and main problem during adjuvant whole breast irradiation. Our study investigated various radiation dosimetric and clinical parameters as the risk factors of severe skin reaction.
Methods: From January 2012 to December 2014, total 219 patients with breast conserving surgery and adjuvant whole breast irradiation were retrospectively reviewed. All patients took both whole breast irradiation (50 Gy/25 fractions) and boost to the tumor bed (10 - 15 Gy). Skin reaction was measured by comparing the photography of radiation field between the first day of whole breast irradiation and boost therapy. For each axilla and inferior fold, the intensity (score 1 to 5) and extent (score 0 to 1) of erythema were recorded and summed. The severe skin reaction was defined as score 5 or 6. The relations of various radiation dosimetric parameters for radiotherapy planning, personal breast characteristics and clinical factors to severe skin reaction were evaluated using the Logistic regression tests.
Results: Total 75 (34%) and 57 (26%) patients showed the severe skin reaction to axilla and inferior fold, respectively. The variables of P < 0.2 in univariate analyses including age, the body mass index, the breast height, the V100, the calculated point dose in radiation planning system, the breast separation, the field size, and the gradient of inferior fold entered the multivariate analyses. Age (P=0.013 (OR = 0.950, 95% CI 0.913 - 0.989)), the body mass index (P = 0.015 (OR = 1.123, 95% CI 1.023 - 1.233)), the calculated axilla point dose (P = 0.091 (OR = 1.064, 95% CI 0.990 - 1.142)), and the gradient of inferior fold (P = 0.073 (OR = 1.029, 95% CI 0.997 - 1.063)) were risk factors for severe axilla skin reaction, whereas age (P = 0.018 (OR = 0.948, 95% CI 0.907 - 0.991)) and the V100 (P < 0.001 (OR = 1.005, 95% CI 1.003 - 1.007)) were for severe inferior fold skin reaction.
Conclusion: In addition to clinical factor and personal breast characteristics, the radiation dosimetric parameters such as calculated point dose and V100 could be another predictive factors of severe skin reaction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE Conventional open thyroidectomy is considered as a safe surgery nowadays. However, surgeons sometimes encounter unexpected difficulty when performing thyroidectomies. The aim of this paper was to identify the predictors of a difficult thyroidectomy for the management of patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma. METHODS A database of patients who underwent open conventional thyroidectomy with cervical lymph node dissection after diagnosed papillary thyroid carcinoma between July 2008 and June 2013 was examined. In addition, the patients were subgrouped by difficult thyroidectomy (DT) and nondifficult thyroidectomy to determine the predictors of DT according to operation time. Clinicopathologic characteristics, surgical outcomes, and postoperative morbidities were investigated. RESULTS No between-group differences in clinicopathologic factors and postoperative complications, except for male sex (p < 0.001) and tumor size (p = 0.039), were noted. Male sex [odds ratio (OR) 4.158, 95% confidence interval (CI) 2.020-8.559, p = 0.043] and age < 45 years (OR 2.239, 95% CI 1.304-3.843, p = 0.003) were independent factors associated with DT in a multivariate logistic regression model. Elevated antithyroglobulin antibody (OR 1.004, 95% CI 1.000-1.008, p = 0.030) was a variable which is statistically significant, but not clinically significant. DISCUSSION Young age and male sex might be regarded as predictors of DT. Expecting DT before surgery might help surgeons, especially beginners, prevent troublesome situations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to identify predictors of difficult robotic thyroidectomy using the bilateral axillo-breast approach (BABA) for the management of patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). METHODS We examined a database containing details of patients with PTC who had undergone robotic thyroidectomy with cervical lymph node dissection between July 2008 and June 2013. Patients were subgrouped into difficult thyroidectomy and non-difficult thyroidectomy to identify predictors associated with difficult thyroidectomy corresponding to the time of operation. Clinicopathologic characteristics, surgical outcomes, and postoperative morbidities were investigated. RESULTS Male sex was the only significantly different clinicopathologic factor between the 2 groups (p = .013). Other factors, such as age (p = .809) and body mass index (BMI; p = .202), were comparable between the 2 groups. The rates of postoperative complications, such as hypoparathyroidism, vocal cord palsy, and seroma, in the difficult thyroidectomy group were not significantly different from those in the non-difficult thyroidectomy group. There was no hematoma or wound infection. Male sex was the only independent factor associated with difficult thyroidectomy (odds ratio [OR] = 5.379; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.052-27.502; p = .043), according to the multivariate logistic regression model. CONCLUSION Male sex was the only predictive factor for difficult robotic thyroidectomy using BABA. Further evaluations should be performed to ascertain additional factors associated with difficult robotic thyroidectomy. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Head Neck 38: E954-E960, 2016.

Abstract
Background We aimed to investigate the efficacy of computer-aided detection (CAD) for MRI in the assessment of tumor extent, lymph node status, and multifocality in invasive breast cancers in comparison with other breast imaging modalities. Methods Two radiologists measured the maximum tumor size, as well as, analyzed lymph node status and multifocality in 86 patients with invasive breast cancers using mammography, ultrasound, CT, MRI with and without CAD, and 18-fludeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET). The assessed data were compared with pathology. Results For tumor extent, there were no significant differences between pathological size and measured size using mammography, ultrasound, CT, or MRI with and without CAD (P > 0.05). For evaluation of lymph node status, ultrasound had the best kappa coefficients (0.522) for agreement between imaging and pathology, and diagnostic performance with 92.1% specificity and 90.0% positive predictive value. For multifocality, MRI with CAD had the highest area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC = 0.888). Conclusions CAD for MRI is feasible to assess tumor extent and multifocality in invasive breast cancer patients. However, CAD is not effective in evaluation of nodal status.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Extrathyroidal extension (ETE) is one of the most important factors correlated to poor outcome of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). However, the role of ETE in the prognosis of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC) and the factor associated with ETE of PTMC are unclear. We investigated clinicopathological, immunohistochemical factors associated with ETE of PTMC to identify whether PTMC with ETE would have more adverse prognostic factors and higher risk for recurrence. SETTING AND DESIGN We enrolled patients performed thyroidectomy due to PTC between January 2003 and June 2008 and selected patients diagnosed with PTMC among them. We investigated numerous clinicopathological, immunohistochemical factors of selected patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS Data from 325 patients diagnosed with conventional PTMC by intraoperative frozen section and final pathology were recorded retrospectively. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USED A χ² test or an independent two-sample t-test, multiple logistic regression analysis, the Kaplan-Meier method, and log-rank test. RESULTS Thirty-four percent of patients (325 of 952) had PTMC on final pathology. Among them, the number of patients with and without ETE was 91 and 234, respectively. On both univariate and multivariate analysis; ETE of PTMC correlated with size (P < 0.001); tumor, node, and metastasis (TNM) staging (P = 0.001); multifocality (P = 0.001); lymph node metastasis (P < 0.001); radioactive iodine (RAI) therapy (P = 0.001); and recurrence (P = 0.037). CONCLUSIONS ETE of conventional PTMC is associated with size, multifocality, lymph node metastasis, and recurrence. More extensive surgery should be considered for patients having ETE identified by intraoperative frozen sections, preoperative imaging, and intraoperative finding and other high risk factors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of the present study was to compare the surgical outcomes of robotic thyroidectomy using the bilateral axillo-breast approach (BABA) with open conventional thyroidectomy. METHODS Database of patients who underwent thyroidectomy with cervical lymph node dissection after diagnosed as papillary thyroid carcinoma between July 2008 and February 2013 were examined. Clinicopathologic characteristics, surgical outcomes, and postoperative morbidities of robot group and open group were investigated. RESULTS The dominant tumor size (P=0.974), body mass index (BMI) (P=0.426), and the mean number of metastatic lymph nodes in central compartment neck dissection (P=0.269) were comparable between the two groups. The mean number of retrieved central lymph nodes was higher in the open group than in the robot group (P=0.001). Postoperative complications were comparable: hypoparathyroidism in 2 weeks (P=0.296) and 3 months (P=0.446) after the surgery; vocal cord palsy in 2 weeks (P=0.363) and 3 months (P=0.312); hematoma (P=0.162); and wound infection (P=0.421). CONCLUSIONS Robotic thyroidectomy using BABA may be a technically feasible and safe procedure comparable to conventional open surgery especially in node-negative patients.

Abstract
Hematological malignancies rarely affect the breast, and the majority of those that do are lymphomas. In this review, we describe the clinical aspects and multimodal imaging findings of breast lymphoma. We also illustrate the key clinical and radiological findings that allow it to be distinguished from various other malignant and benign diseases of the breast. Breast lymphoma manifests as a breast mass, a change in the subcutaneous tissue or the skin, or enlargement of the associated lymph node on radiological examination. Radiological findings associated with other breast malignancies, such as calcifications, spiculations, or architectural distortions are extremely rare. Skin and subcutaneous changes frequently accompany T-cell lymphoma. Multimodal breast imaging characteristics may aid in the diagnosis of breast lymphoma.

Abstract
Purpose The National Kidney Foundation Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative (NKF-K/DOQI) 2003 has established guidelines for the treatment of secondary hyperparathyroidism (SHPT) in patients with chronic kidney disease - minerals and bone disorder (CKD-MBD). This study evaluated parathyroidectomy in SHPT patients for the achievement of the NKF-K/DOQI-recommended values of serum calcium, phosphate, and parathyroid hormone (PTH). Methods Between January 2005 and December 2010, parathyroidectomy was performed as recommended by the NKF-K/DOQI guidelines in 81 patients with SHPT and CKD-MBD. Serum PTH, calcium, and phosphate levels were measured prior to and 6, 12, 36, and 60 months after parathyroidectomy. Results Calcium, phosphate, and PTH levels dropped shortly after parathyroidectomy; however, a slight increase showed in the long term. Calcium levels increased for up to 60 months. Phosphate and PTH levels increased for up to 36 months but tended to decrease slightly at 60 months. The mean values were within the target ranges, except for PTH at 36 months. The target parameters of serum phosphate (42.9-61.1% of patients) and serum calcium (a peak of 61.1% of patients at 36 months, but only 28.6% at 60 months) were achieved the most. Less than 34% of patients achieved the recommended range for PTH. Conclusion Parathyroidectomy was not an optimal procedure for achieving all the biochemical parameters recommended by the NKF-K/DOQI. Although it was helpful in attaining the recommended values for serum calcium and phosphate in SHPT patients resistant to medical therapy, the PTH levels did not fall within the recommended range.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To determine the optimal whole breast irradiation technique in patients with small-sized breasts, tangential and field-in-field IMRT (FIF) techniques were compared. METHODS Sixteen patients with ≤3 cm breast height and ≤350 cc volume were included. Seven patients had 4D CTs performed. The planning target volumes (PTV), editing 5 and 2 mm from the surface on the whole breast, were delineated and called PTV(5) and PTV(2), respectively. Dose-volume histograms of tangential techniques with open beam (OT) and wedge filter (WT), conventional FIF (cFIF), and modified FIF (mFIF) blocking out the lung were produced. Various dose-volume parameters, the dose heterogeneity index (DHtrI), dose homogeneity index (DHmI), and PTV dose improvement (PDI) were calculated. RESULTS OT compared with WT showed a significantly favorable V 90 of the heart and lung, and PTV(5)-dose distribution. Comparing OT and cFIF, OT showed significant improvement in the V 95 of PTV(2), whereas cFIF showed significant improvement in the V 95, DHtrI, DHmI, and PDI of the PTV(5). In comparing cFIF and mFIF, mFIF showed improved dose distributions of the heart and lung, while cFIF presented the better V 95, DHtrI, DHmI, and PDI of the PTV(5). Respiratory influences on the absolute dose were mostly within 1 %. The ratio of free breathing and each respiratory phase was similar among OT, cFIF, and mFIF. CONCLUSIONS cFIF has favorable dose conformity and is suggested to be an optimal method for small-sized breasts. However, OT for dose coverage close to the skin and mFIF for normal tissue may also be potential alternatives. Respiratory effects are minimal.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Docetaxel and paclitaxel are likely to have different toxicity profiles, dose reduction and delays despite their similar medical results in breast cancer patients. AIMS This study examined retrospectively the incidence and severity of certain toxicities, dose reduction and delay of two taxanes. MATERIALS AND METHODS From January 2009 to June 2010, the incidence and severity of toxicities as well as the dose reduction, dose delay, granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) in 54 patients with operable lymph node-positive (tumor stage T1, T2, or T3 and nodal stage N1 or N2) and high risk, node-negative (T2 or T3, N0) breast cancer without a distant metastases who received adjuvant chemotherapy - adriamycin, cyclophosphamide, docetaxel (TAC) and adriamycin, cyclophosphamide, paclitaxel (ACP)- were evaluated. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USED Mann-Whitney test and Fisher's exact test. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION The patients in the ACP group experienced more frequent peripheral neuropathy (P=0.025), nausea (P=0.033) than those in the TAC group. Febrile neutropenia was significant in TAC (P=0.001). Increasing age was associated with an increased risk of anemia (P=0.004), fatigue (P=0.009) and pain (P=0.003), and a decreasing body mass index was associated with an increased risk of febrile neutropenia (P=0.009). Dose reduction and delay occurred due to febrile neutropenia and an increase in aspartate aminotransferase (AST)/alanine aminotransferase (ALT). The dose reduction was only significant in the TAC group (P= 0.001). A taxane-based regimen should be chosen for breast cancer patients based on the pharmacokinetics, dosing schedule, clinical activity and toxicity profile that best meet the patient's therapeutic needs and quality of life.

Abstract
AIM Although endoscopic thyroid surgery is gaining wide acceptance, however, manual endoscopic operation also has shown several limitations. The advent of robotic surgical systems, such as the da Vinci surgical system (Intuitive Surgical, Mountain View, CA, USA), is expected to make it possible to overcome some limitations of manual endoscopic operation. Herein we report a single surgeon (H.Y.K.)'s initial two-year experience of new robotic thyroid operations using the bilateral axillo-breast approach (BABA), the approach which has definite advantages and recently has been widely used for the traditional endoscopic thyroid surgery. METHODS Between July 2008 and July 2010, 93 patients underwent robotic thyroid surgery using the BABA, with the da Vinci-S surgical system, at the Korea University Anam Hospital, Seoul, Korea. The data on the patients' clinicopathological characteristics, operation types, operation times, surgical results, postoperative hospital stays and complications were collected in a prospective manner, and later evaluated. RESULTS Seventy-two total thyroidectomies with or without central neck dissections mostly for the papillary carcinomas, twenty lobectomies with or without central neck dissections for the minute ‑ smaller than 0.5 cm in their maximal diameter ‑ papillary carcinomas, follicular neoplasms and benign tumors, and a bilateral subtotal lobectomy for the multinodular goiter were performed robotically. There was no conversion of robotic procedure to traditional endoscopic or open procedure. The mean total operation time was 288.5±48.0 minutes. The mean number of retrieved lymph nodes by the central neck dissection was 5.1±1.97 (range, 0-12). The mean hospital stay of the patients was 2.8±1.2 days. And the mean postoperative 3rd month serum thyroglobulin level in patients undergone total thyroidectomy was 0.3±0.14 ng/mL (range, 0.08-1.95). Three (3.2%) patients suffered from transient hoarseness postoperatively, but all of them recovered in three months. Transient hypocalcemias were observed in 17 out of 72 (23.6%) patients who had undergone total thyroidectomy, but none of them left permanent. No other complication, such as bleeding, infection, neither fluid collection, was observed. CONCLUSION Our initial surgical results of robotic thyroid surgery using BABA demonstrate the feasibility and safety of the procedure in the treatment of benign tumors and early differentiated carcinomas.

Abstract
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) recently has been applied to benign thyroid nodules, mainly for the cosmetic reasons, and limited cases of local recurrences or focal distant metastases of well-differentiated thyroid cancer, in the high-risk reoperative condition or for the palliative purpose. But no report has been made on the RFA for primary thyroid cancer to date. We report on a patient with primary papillary carcinoma of thyroid gland who had undergone RFA before the cytological diagnosis of malignancy, later referred and treated with robotic surgery successfully. We can learn the following lessons from our case; (1) the RFA for operable primary thyroid malignancy should be avoided, because of the possibility of remnant viable cancer and undetectable nodal metastasis, and (2) robotic or endoscopic thyroid surgery may be a feasible operative method for benign or malignant thyroid nodules previously treated with RFA.

Abstract
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES The use of breast computed tomography (CT) has been limited by radiation hazard and image quality. The objective of this study was to compare radiation doses and image quality for different 64-channel multidetector row CT (MDCT) parameters, and to potentially provide optimal CT parameters for breast imaging. MATERIALS AND METHODS For assessment of radiation doses, CT dose index (CTDI(100)) values were obtained at various x-ray tube voltages (80, 120, 140 kVp) and currents (30, 50, 100, 150, 200 mAs) using a standard CT body dose phantom. To evaluate image quality, four fresh mastectomy specimens were scanned and three radiologists graded images for overall image quality, glandular tissue-fat conspicuity, and Cooper's ligament sharpness. Statistically, linear regression analyses and multiple comparisons were used for investigation of the relationship between radiation dose, image qualities, and CT parameters. RESULTS CTDI(100) values of < or =6 mGy were obtained at 80 kVp and any mAs, 120 kVp and 30 or 50 mAs, and 140 kVp and 30 or 50 mAs. Image quality at 80 kVp and 200 mAs, 120 kV and 50, 100, 150, or 200 mAs, and 140 kVp and all mAs values tested were significantly superior to those at 80 kVp and 30, 50, 100, or 150 mAs and 120 kV and 30 mAs (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS Based on our results, 80 kVp and 200 mAs, 120 kVp and 50 mAs, 140 kVp and 30 mAs, or 140 kVp and 50 mAs can be used for breast MDCT scanning to reduce radiation dose and preserve image quality and 140 kVp at 30 mAs is the optimal setting.

Abstract
We herein describe a case of cystic lymphangioma in the greater omentum of the remnant stomach, which is thought it to be related with subtotal gastrectomy 10 yr ago for early gastric cancer. A 76-yr-old man was admitted to our department with postprandial abdominal discomfort and bowel habit change. Intraabdominal multilocular cystic mass was detected by ultrasonography and computed tomography. We performed a complete En-bloc tumor resection including spleen and distal pancreas, and histological examination confirmed cystic lymphangioma originated from the greater omentum of the remnant stomach. Although the etiology of omental lymphangioma remains largely unclear, these findings suggested strongly that obstruction of the lymphatic vessels after gastric resection for gastric carcinoma might be the most plausible cause. The surgical extirpation with resection of organs involved appears to be a treatment of choice for such unusual case.

Abstract
Objective Ultrasound-guided needle localization has been used prior to the surgical excision of nonpalpable breast lesions. The aim of the study was to assess the feasibility of the use of a saline immersion specimen ultrasound technique (immersion-US) to confirm the successful removal of breast lesions. Materials and Methods The devised immersion-US technique was used to examine the excised tissues of 72 ultrasound-guided needle localized breast lesions of 58 patients (34 benign lesions, 30 high-risk lesions and 8 malignant lesions). Freshly excised specimens were placed in a container filled with saline and one radiologist scanned the surgically excised specimens using a high-frequency linear transducer. We evaluated successful lesion removal and the qualities of the immersion-US images. Miss rates were determined by the use of postoperative ultrasound during follow-up. Results All 72 lesions were identified by the use of immersion-US and satisfactory or excellent quality images were obtained for most lesions (70/72, 97%). Five (7%) lesions were initially identified as incompletely excised, based on the immersion-US findings, and prompt re-excision was undertaken. Follow-up ultrasound examinations showed no residual mass in the surgical field in any patient. Conclusion The immersion-US technique was found straightforward and efficient to perform. Immersion-US was able to determine whether nonpalpable breast lesions had been successfully excised after ultrasound-guided needle localization.

Abstract
Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) of the stomach in adults is extremely rare, with unpredictable prognosis. We present a 55-year-old woman with a gastric IMT. She experienced sudden abdominal pain 4 d previously. Physical examination showed mild abdominal tenderness in the hypogastrium, but no palpable abnormal abdominal mass. Abdominal CT showed a mass of approximately 8 cm in the gastrocolic ligament. On laparoscopic exploration, unexpected hemoperitoneum of approximately 1.5 L of blood was found, and an exophytic gastric mass of approximately 10 cm, appeared from the anterior wall of the gastric body along the greater curvature. Laparoscopy further showed that non-clotting blood in the abdominal cavity seemed to be from the gastric tumor. After conversion to open surgery for more precise evaluation of the cause of hemoperitoneum and the large friable tumor, gastric wedge resection, including the tumor, was conducted. The final diagnosis was consistent with IMT that originated from the gastric wall.
