Myofascial trigger points are present in dysfunctioning muscles and are associated with several diseases. However, the scientific literature has not established whether myofascial trigger points of differing etiologies have the same clinical characteristics. Thus, the objective of the present study
OBJECTIVE
Lipegfilgrastim is a once-per-cycle, fixed-dose, glycoPEGylated recombinant granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) recently approved in Europe to reduce the duration of chemotherapy-induced neutropenia and incidence of febrile neutropenia in patients with cancer receiving
METHODS
A case of vertebral body fracture due to metastatic breast cancer in a male patient and a review of the literature are presented.
OBJECTIVE
To draw attention to the possible adverse skeletal events in breast cancer patients, and the need of a watchful staff within the multidisciplinary team
While skull base metastases from breast cancer are not uncommon, there are relatively few reported cases in the literature. We report a case of skull base metastasis of breast cancer that resulted in dysphasia, odynophagia, and dysarthria. The case involved a woman in her 50 s who was diagnosed with
Background: The DigniCap System is an effective scalp cooling device for the prevention of chemotherapy-induced alopecia in early breast cancer patients.
Aim: This prospective
A 61-year-old woman presented with metastatic breast cancer in her right lung 4 years and 11 months after the operation for her right breast cancer(HER2 enriched type). Chemotherapy(pertuzumab plus trastuzumab plus docetaxel)were ad- ministered. On day 2 of cycle 2, pegfilgrastim was administered
The authors report the case of a woman presenting with breast cancer who subsequently developed neck pain and ataxia. She had a family history of breast cancer and Cowden disease. A MRI study of the brain revealed a lesion in the cerebellum consistent with Lhermitte-Duclos disease (LDD) and a lesion
A 55-year-old woman complained of neck pain ten years after the mastectomy. She was diagnosed as multiple bone metastases and received chemoendocrine therapy with 5'-DFUR and tamoxifen. Bone scintigram showed progressive disease, so we attempted biweekly administration of fadrozole and pamidronate
A 55-year-old woman complained of neck pain ten years after undergoing surgery. She was diagnosed as having bone metastases and treated using pamidronate therapy with doxifluridine, tamoxifen and fadrozole, which was assessed as effective. She complained of neck pain 32 months after pamidronate
BACKGROUND
Crowned dens syndrome (CDS) is a rare cause of acute headache and neck pain, which is accompanied by fever and a stiff neck. It is caused by calcium deposits (pseudogout) around the dens axis (C2).
METHODS
A 61-year-old woman, with a history of migraine and of breast cancer 8 years
Intra-arterial infusion chemotherapy for locally advanced breast cancer (LABC) has been previously performed. However, the main complications of this type of chemotherapy remain to be clarified. In the present study, catheterization chemotherapy was carried out for 53 LABC cases (stage IIIa-IIIc)
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the effects of an 8-week water physical therapy program on cervical and shoulder pain, pressure sensitivity, and the presence of trigger points (TrPs) in breast cancer survivors.
METHODS
Randomized, controlled trial.
METHODS
To date, no study has investigated effects of water
The aim of the present study was to report pressure pain sensitivity topographical maps of the frontal and dorsal parts of the shoulder region, and locate the pressure pain sensitive areas in breast cancer survivors compared with matched healthy control subjects.
Twenty-two breast cancer survivors
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the effects of an 8-week multidimensional physical therapy program, including strengthening exercises and recovery massage, on neck and shoulder pain, pressure hypersensitivity, and the presence of active trigger points (TrPs) in breast cancer survivors.
METHODS
In this
Cancer-related fatigue and pain after surgery are the most frequent and most incapacitating cancer-related symptoms after breast cancer treatment. Genetic influence of cancer-related fatigue and pain has not been previously investigated. Our aim was to examine the influence of
