Journal article (other academic/artistic)abstract
- I randomiserade studier har det visats att antibiotikaprofylax minskar infektionsfrekvensen med cirka 30–40 procent vid bröstcancerkirurgi.Statens beredning för medicinsk utvärdering rekommenderar därför sedan 2010 antibiotikaprofylax vid bröstcancerkirurgi.I Uppsala läns landsting fick totalt cirka 10 procent postoperativ infektion efter bröstkirurgi under 2009 och 2010. Ingreppets omfattning relaterar klart till risken för infektion.Vi diskuterar i denna artikel när det kan vara indicerat att ge eller inte ge antibiotikaprofylax vid bröstcancerkirurgi.

- Background; Surgical site infection (SSI) is a well-known complication after breast cancer surgery. The primary aim was to assess risk factors for SSI. Risk factors for other wound complications were also studied.Materials and Methods: In this prospectively registered cohort study, patients who underwent breast-conserving surgery (BCS) or mastectomy between May 2017 and May 2019 were included. Data included patient and treatment characteristics, infection, and wound complication rates. Risk factors for SSI and wound complications were analyzed with simple and multiple logistic regression.Results: The study cohort consisted of 592 patients who underwent 707 procedures. There were 66 (9.3%) SSI and 95 (13.4%) wound complications. "BMI > 25, " "oncoplastic BCS, " "reoperation within 24 hour, " and "prolonged operative time " were risk factors for SSI with simple analysis. BMI 25-30 and > 30 remained as significant risk factors for SSI with adjusted analysis. Risk factors for "any wound complication " with adjusted analysis were "mastectomy with/without reconstruction " in addition to "BMI 25-30 " and "BMI > 30. "Conclusion: The only significant risk factor for SSI on multivariable analysis were BMI 25-30 and BMI > 30. Significant risk factors for "any wound complication " on multivariable analysis were "mastectomy with/without reconstruction " as well as "BMI 25-30 " and "BMI > 30. "

Randomized Trials of Systemic Medically-treated Malignant Mesothelioma : A Systematic Review
- 2015

Research review (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a rare but aggressive malignancy mainly localized to the pleura. Malignant mesothelioma grows highly invasive into surrounding tissue and has a low tendency to metastasize. The median overall survival (OS) of locally advanced or metastatic disease without treatment is 4-13 months but, during recent years, improvement in survival has been achieved since treatment for patients with mesothelioma has improved with better palliative care, systemic medical treatment, surgery and improved diagnostics methods. The present review aims at describing available data from randomized trials considering systemic medical treatment for this patient category.

Effect of Radiotherapy After Breast-Conserving Surgery for Ductal Carcinoma in Situ: 20 Years Follow-Up in the Randomized SweDCIS Trial

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Purpose Four randomized studies show that adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) lowers the risk of subsequent ipsilateral breast events (IBEs) after breast-conserving surgery (BCS) for ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) by approximately 50% after 10 to 15 years. We present 20 years of follow-up data for the SweDCIS trial. Patients and Methods Between 1987 and 1999 1,046 women were randomly assigned to RT or not after BCS for primary DCIS. Results up to 2005 have been published, and we now add another 7 years of follow-up. All breast cancer events and causes of death were registered. Results There were 129 in situ and 129 invasive IBEs. Absolute risk reduction in the RT arm was 12.0% at 20 years (95% CI, 6.5 to 17.7), with a relative risk reduction of 37.5%. Absolute reduction was 10.0% (95% CI, 6.0 to 14.0) for in situ and 2.0% (95% CI, -3.0 to 7.0) for invasive IBEs. There was a nonstatistically significantly increased number of contralateral events in the RT arm (67 v 48 events; hazard ratio, 1.38; 95% CI, 0.95 to 2.00). Breast cancer-specific death and overall survival were not influenced. Younger women experienced a relatively higher risk of invasive IBE and lower effect of RT. The hazard over time looked different for in situ and invasive IBEs. Conclusion Use of adjuvant RT is supported by 20-year follow-up. Modest protection against invasive recurrences and a possible increase in contralateral cancers still call for a need to find groups of patients for whom RT could be avoided or mastectomy with breast reconstruction is indicated.
