Hormonal Levels

<p>Enlargement of breast tissue in neonates is a condition seen as a physiological response to the decline in maternal hormonal levels postnatal. It is commonly seen in the initial weeks, but can progress in size within two months of life. We herein report a case diagnosed as neonatal mastauxe in a two months old female, which was followed up without any medical or surgical intervention. Neonatal mastauxe means enlargement of breast tissue in newborn, which is sometimes essential to be differentiated from breast abscess and mastitis in babies.</p>

Background. Macroprolactinemia is defined as predominance of high molecular weight prolactin forms in the circulation. Although macroprolactin is considered as a biologically inactive molecule, some authorities suggest treatment in symptomatic cases. Gigantomastia is defined as excess breast tissue and most cases in the literature were treated by surgical intervention.Case. A 44-year-old woman was admitted to our clinic with gigantomastia and galactorrhea. The patient had a demand for surgical therapy. In laboratory examination, she had hyperprolactinemia and macroprolactinemia. Pituitary imaging revealed 6 mm microadenoma in right side of the hypophysis. Since she was symptomatic, cabergolin treatment was started. Macroprolactin became negative, breast circumference decreased significantly, and galactorrhea resolved after treatment.Conclusion. Gigantomastia might be the presenting symptom in patients with macroprolactinemia. In these patients medical treatment with cabergoline may be used initially as an alternative to surgical approach.

Lactiferous Duct

Lactiferous or milk fistula is a tract between the skin and lactiferous duct. Chronic lactiferous duct is uncommon and generally formed during lactating period. It commonly result from complication of the surgical intervention, such as excision biopsy of breast mass or incision and drainage (I&D) for breast abscess. We reported a case of chronic lactiferous fistula secondary to previous I&D for breast abscess in 31 year old lactating woman.

Silicone Prostheses

After augmenting (augmenting) mammoplasty using silicone endoprostheses, various complications often occur, which is confirmed by a large number of publications on this topic. One of the dangerous complications after implantation of a silicone prosthesis that threaten the outcome of the entire surgical intervention is its rejection. This complication can occur both in the early postoperative period and later after the operation. The immediate causes of early rejection of the prosthesis can be hematoma or seroma, less often infection. Later rejection of the prosthesis can occur as a result of its displacement to the surface and perforation of the integumentary skin. The frequency of rejection of silicone breast implants varies from 0.9 to 10-15%.

This case report deals with an18-years-ols primiparous lactating mother who had an abscess on the right breast and a cracked nipple on the left. She was referred to the Hasan Sadikin’s breastfeeding mother’s support group. Beside treating her with antibiotics and analgesics, surgical intervention was done which showed a good result. A proper lactation management succeeded in increasing the milk supply as was reflected in the growth of the infant. At home visite a well-grown and exclusively breastfed infant was found. So this mother-infant pair had got the benefit of the referral system established by Hasan Sadikin Hospital.

Abstract Background: In this study we wish to attract attention to mistaken interventions to the breast tissue of neonates and to increase awareness about this topic among personnel providing health services to neonates. Case presentation: A fourteen-day male infant was brought to the pediatric emergency clinic with swelling, redness, hardness and discharge complaints in the region of both breasts. Ultrasonography of the breast tissue of the patient identified appearance compatible with a dense-content abscess in the form of hyperechoic or hypoechoic avascular mass. Bilateral breast abscess responded to surgical and medical treatment. Conclusions: It is important to recognize physiological breast hypertrophy in newborns. In physiological hypertrophy, the breast bud is neither red nor soft and heals spontaneously. No intervention is required.

The Individual

The physiological response to traumatic injury protects the individual from deterioration in their condition, conserving body fluids and providing energy to catabolic cells. The trauma patient should undergo an ABCDE assessment, and a full history is also required. An understanding of the circumstances and the various forces involved at the time of injury may give an indication of the type, severity, and location of possible injuries. This chapter covers the assessment, types of injuries, immediate management, ongoing management, and complications associated with traumatic injury. This chapter also provides an overview of orthopaedic surgery and the conditions requiring surgical intervention.

Breast abscess is the localized collection of pus in breast tissue. Various treatment protocols used now a day like oral drugs, hot compression, surgical incision and drainage and ultrasound guided needle aspiration. Aim of this article was to identify the ultrasound guided needle aspiration of breast abscess is an alternative to surgical incision and drainage by analysis of previous study reports. It was found that though ultrasound guided aspiration of breast abscess has some benefit than traditional surgical drainage but it not applicable for all cases. TAJ 2020; 33(1): 1-4

Space flight, with its unique environmental constraints such as immobilization, decreased and increased pressures, and radiation, is known to affect testicular morphology and spermatogenesis. Selye, summarized the manifestations of physiological response to nonspecific stress and he pointed out that atrophy of the gonads always occurred. Reports of data collected from two dogs flown in space for 22 days (Cosmos 110) indicate that there was an increase of 30 to 70% atypical spermatozoa when compared to ground based controls. Seventy-five days after the flight the abnormalities had decreased to the high normal value of 30% and mating of these dogs after this period produced normal offspring, suggesting complete recovery. Effects of immobilization and increased gravity were investigated by spinning rats and mice at 2x g for 8-9 weeks. A decrease in testicular weight was noted in spun animals when compared to controls. Immobilization has been show to cause arrest of spermatogenesis in Macaca meminstrins.

Space Lab 3 (SL-3) was flown on Shuttle Challenger providing an opportunity to measure the effect of spaceflight on rat testes. Cannon developed the idea that organisms react to unfavorable conditions with highly integrated metabolic activities. Selye summarized the manifestations of physiological response to nonspecific stress and he pointed out that atrophy of the gonads always occurred. Many papers have been published showing the effects of social interaction, crowding, peck order and confinement. Flickinger showed delayed testicular development in subordinate roosters influenced by group numbers, social rank and social status. Christian reported increasing population size in mice resulted in adrenal hypertrophy, inhibition of reproductive maturation and loss of reproductive function in adults. Sex organ weights also declined. Two male dogs were flown on Cosmos 110 for 22 days. Fedorova reported an increase of 30 to 70% atypical spermatozoa consisting of tail curling and/or the absence of a tail.
