Exact Origin

Abstract OBJECTIVE AND IMPORTANCE The exact origin of rare intradural chondrosarcomas remains obscure. We present a case report of an intradural classic chondrosarcoma (a very rare subtype of chondrosarcoma in this location), with a review of the literature, in an attempt to clarify the histogenesis of these tumors. CLINICAL PRESENTATION A 48-year-old man presented with a 12-month history of progressive right hemiparesis. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a left parietal space-occupying lesion. INTERVENTION The patient underwent an image-guided, left parietal parasagittal craniotomy. An extrinsic tumor, which seemed to arise from the dura, was macroscopically removed. There was no bone involvement. The histological examination revealed a Grade II classic chondrosarcoma with tumor infiltration into the dura. Adjuvant radiotherapy was administered. CONCLUSION Intradural chondrosarcomas are rare tumors, the majority of which are mesenchymal. Classic chondrosarcomas in this location are much rarer. Their histogenesis is uncertain. In this case, the origin seems to be from the dura. Because of the malignant potential of these tumors, radical extirpation whenever possible, followed by radiotherapy, is indicated.

AbstractAugmented reality (AR) superimposes computer-generated virtual objects onto the user’s view of the real world. Among medical disciplines, neurosurgery has long been at the forefront of image-guided surgery, and it continues to push the frontiers of AR technology in the operating room. In this systematic review, we explore the history of AR in neurosurgery and examine the literature on current neurosurgical applications of AR. Significant challenges to surgical AR exist, including compounded sources of registration error, impaired depth perception, visual and tactile temporal asynchrony, and operator inattentional blindness. Nevertheless, the ability to accurately display multiple three-dimensional datasets congruently over the area where they are most useful, coupled with future advances in imaging, registration, display technology, and robotic actuation, portend a promising role for AR in the neurosurgical operating room.

Ablative Techniques

AbstractPercutaneous image-guided thermal ablation is an established form of treatment of small volume hepato-pancreatico-biliary (HPB) tumors with very satisfactory results over the last three decades. Purpose of this article is to offer a brief overview of the history of thermal ablation and the currently available technology that interventional radiologists have in their armamentarium to offer minimally invasive thermally for HPB cancer.

e11098 Background: Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women in Mexico. It is mostly diagnosed at advanced stages. Objective: To describe the experience of image-guided biopsies of non-palpable breast tumors in a University Hospital in Mexico City. Methods: Medical records from the Radiology and Oncology Department (January 2007 - April 2011) were reviewed. Patients with incomplete medical records as well as those lacking imaging control and pathology report were excluded. Results: A total of 123 medical records were obtained,12 were excluded. The median age was 50 years (rank 21-88). Most patients were asymptomatic. Medical indications leading to biopsy: see table below. Of the studied population, 56% had a family history of any type of cancer; 40% had a family history of breast cancer. Nine patients had a past medical history positive for breast cancer, 8 patients had a past medical history of any type of cancer. 26 patients were nulligravid and 60 post-menopausal; of which 27 had received hormone replacement therapy. 24 patients had positive contraceptive use. Most patients were catalogued as BIRADs 4A. From all the imaged-marked lesions, only 18 were malignant; 72% of which were carcinoma in situ. Most procedures were ambulatory; only 15 patients had to be admitted. The complications rate was very low (6%), 1 procedure-related infection, 3 seromas and 3 hematomas. Conclusions: Imaging-guided biopsies are a safe, with very low morbidity, accessible procedure. It helps to prompt effective treatment; especially in patients with non-palpable lesions who would otherwise not be diagnosed until advanced stages. [Table: see text]

Recurrent Breast

When women with a history of breast cancer present with peritoneal carcinomatosis, the differential diagnosis lies between recurrent breast cancer or a new primary tumor. This scenario is of particular relevance to women with a BRCA gene mutation, who have a genetic predisposition to develop second primary tumors of the ovary, fallopian tube, and peritoneum. We describe the use of image-guided core biopsy as an alternative to laparoscopy or exploratory laparotomy in providing minimally invasive diagnosis in this increasingly common clinical dilemma.

AbstractOver the past 30 years, image-guided placement of gastrostomies and cecostomies for gastrointestinal decompression has developed into a safe and effective treatment for symptomatic bowel obstruction. Gastrostomies and cecostomies relieve patient symptoms, can prevent serious complications such as colonic perforation, and may bridge patients to more definitive treatment for the underlying cause of obstruction. This article will review the history of decompressive gastrostomies and cecostomies as well as the indications, contraindications, technique, complications, and outcomes of these procedures.

258 Background: To investigate presentation, management and outcome of renal tumors in patients with prior or current history of cancer. Methods: A retrospective review of a database for patients undergoing ablation of renal tumors between January 2012 and June 2014 was performed. For each patient , the following was recorded: Prior or current history of cancer (other than renal cell carcinoma), histology of primary tumor, status of primary cancer (remission or under therapy), size of the renal tumor, thermal ablation technology , complications of ablation, development of metastases from renal tumor, deceased or alive , cause of death and the length of follow up. Results: Ninety five renal ablation procedures were performed in 91 patients between January 2012 and June 2014. Of this subset, 37 patients (27 male and 10 females) with average age 63 years (Age range 53-85 Years) had prior or current history of malignancy (6 patients had more than one primary cancer) other than renal tumor including Prostate(6), colorectal (4), Breast (4) lymphoma (3) and others (20). All renal tumors were discovered incidentally, none of the patients had symptoms related to renal tumors. Twenty four patients were in remission and 13 patients were undergoing therapy for their primary malignancy at the time of ablation. Ablation was performed using radiofrequency (n = 30) or cryoablation (n = 9) for 39 renal lesions with average size of 2.4cm (Range 1.1 to 4 cm). After average of 20 months (range 5-35 months) of observation 34 patients (92%) were still alive. Three patients died of their primary cancer. None of the patients developed complication from the procedure, 1 patient had recurrence after 6 month; for which renal ablation was performed. None of the patients developed metastatic disease from or died of renal cell carcinoma. Conclusions: Staging workup and surveillance imaging studies in cancer patients can lead to incidental detection of primary renal tumors. Minimally invasive therapy with image guided radiofrequency ablation or cryotherapy is feasible, safe and effective. Image guided ablation has no discernable impact on the course of therapy for the primary tumor. Furthermore, it has minimal to no morbidity for patients in remission.
