analgesic/breast neoplasms

Almost 382,000 new cancers have been diagnosed in France in 2018. Regular progresses in their management have improved the overall survival of patients, sometimes with sequelae that may be particularly painful. Thus for 20 to 45% of patients treated for breast cancer, pain persists 5 years later. If

Dexmedetomidine is an α2 receptor agonist with sedative and analgesic properties. In previous reports, dexmedetomidine improves smoothness of postoperative recovery and reduces intraoperatory imflammatory responses. As patients receiving breast surgeries are especially vulnerable to postoperative

Breast cancer is one of the most common oncologic diagnosis in women. Surgery is traditionally performed under general anesthesia with opioid‑based analgesia. It is associated with higher incidences of PONV, more severe acute postoperative pain and increased incidences of chronic pain. The

Mammography is considered a fundamental part of diagnosis in modern health care services. It provides low dose soft tissue imaging of normal structure and pathology within the breast. A mammogram can be performed on both asymptomatic and symptomatic women with palpable lumps and any other

The traditional pain management for patients undergoing MRM has relied heavily on opioids but a number of multimodal pain control strategies also exist including combining opioids with NSAIDs, cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors, acetaminophen and regional blocks. Recently, literature underlines the

It is reported that postmastectomy pain syndrome (PMPS) is a common problem, ranging from 25% to 60%. The pain is localized in the axilla, medial upper arm, breast, and/or chest wall and lasting beyond three months after surgery when all other causes of pain such as infection have been

thrity patients participated in this randomized, single-blined study. Before and at the postoperative day 1, the bowel function (orocecal transmit time) were measured. Before induction of general anesthesia, patients recieved a bolus of intravenous Tenoxicam or an equal volume of saline (control

1.1 Primary research question To determine the feasibility of a randomized controlled trial comparing an Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocol to conventional perioperative care for adult women with breast cancer undergoing post-mastectomy autologous breast reconstruction. 1.2 Background

Breast cancer is the second most common in the world and the most frequent in the female population. In Italy, around 48,000 new cases were diagnosed in 2013. Every year patients undergoing surgical procedures in the region of the breast and armpit, like other surgical areas, report a significant

Before surgery, the 3rd interpectoral space will be identified. After aspiration, half of the solution of 0.35 ml/kg of Ropivacaine 7.5 mg/ml not exceeding 30 ml of maximal volume or saline (not exceeding 30 ml of maximal volume) will be injected into the interpectoral space underneath the

This prospective, randomized controlled trial will include 30 adult female patients below 65 years of age scheduled for surgery for breast cancer. Inclusion criteria will include also American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status I-II and unilateral surgery. Exclusion criteria will

The participating females will be randomly allocated using computer generated randomizer program (http://www.randomizer.org) into one of 3 groups. Group (C) / (I): 20 patients (control group): Patient will receive 20 ml 0.25% levobupivacaine into interfascial plane below erector spinae muscle at

Breast cancer is the most frequent cancer among women; it causes the highest number of cancer-related deaths among them globally. The prognosis has improved considerably over the past 30 years, and the 5-year survival rate of patients has been increased due to the advances in the early detection and

Twelve women in Denmark are diagnosed with breast cancer every day. Breast cancer and ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) are the primary type of cancer/precursor to cancer in women, and one of the main treatment modalities is surgical intervention. DCIS is a non-invasive (pre-malignant) condition in

One of the most common types of cancer affecting women is breast cancer. Surgical resection is one of the main approaches applied for solid tumors. surgical approach for breast cancer involve the breast region. Various analgesic modalities are used for proper perioperative pain control. Morphine has
