RESUMO

Background Hygiene measures are recommended to prevent toxoplasmosis during pregnancy, although screening for seroconversion in pregnant women currently are debated and practices vary among countries. Objectives The purpose of this systematic literature review was to assess the effectiveness of hygiene measures during pregnancy to prevent toxoplasmosis infection. Search Strategy We followed the standard MOOSE and PRISMA criteria when conducting this systematic review and reporting the results. Selection criteria A systematic literature search was conducted for studies focused on congenital toxoplasmosis prevention, toxoplasmosis prevention during pregnancy, toxoplasmosis prevention and hygiene measures, which were published between 1970 and August 2020, using the databases of PubMed, Scope Med, EMBASE, and the Cochrane library. Data collection and analysis Our literature search identified 3964 articles, 3757 were excluded after review of title or abstract and 67 studies were considered relevant to the subject. We reviewed risk factors for toxoplasmosis infection during pregnancy and for congenital toxoplasmosis, preventive measures for toxoplasmosis during pregnancy, including: dietary recommendations, pet care measures, environmental measures, knowledge of risk factors and ways to control toxoplasmosis infection, knowledge of risk factors for infection by health professionals, knowledge of primary prevention measures by pregnant women. Conclusion: Hygiene measures are effective and applicable primary prevention to reduce toxoplasmosis and avoid congenital toxoplasmosis and its consequences. Funding No.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: The Grisotti technique consists to excise central breast tumor with nipple areolar and mobilize a dermo-glandular flap which is de-epithelized in order to reshape the breast and recreate an areola. The objective was to assess oncological results, postoperative side-effects, and patient and surgeon satisfaction rates resulting from this technique. MATERIALS AND METHODS: From September 2016 to December 2019, 38 patients have been treated with a central breast tumor using the Grisotti technique. RESULTS: The mean age was 61.6 ± 11. The median body mass index was 27 kg/m² [20-42]. Thirty one patients benefited from a sentinel lymph node dissection. Preoperative histology found a majority of invasive ductal carcinomas (IDC) (71%). There were no intraoperative complications, and the average operating time was 90 min [60-200]. Postoperative histology found IDC associated with ductal carcinoma in situ in 28 patients. The surgical margins were invaded in two patients (reoperated by mastectomy after adjuvant treatment) and invasion of a margin of less than 1 mm in another six patients (supplemented by re-excision). The main postoperative complications were an abscess of the operating site and a partial necrosis of the neo-areola. The appearance of the breasts after radiotherapy gives a high satisfaction rate, both for patients and for surgeons. CONCLUSION: The Grisotti technique is an easily reproducible procedure without major complications. It makes it possible to perform a carcinological satisfactory central lumpectomy, correction of the central glandular defect, and reconstruction of a new areola.

RESUMO

A 79-year-old woman was treated at our department for a neoplasm of the left breast. It was discovered following the spontaneous appearance of a localized ecchymotic lesion of the breast. The only clinical sign was this purpura, with no notion of trauma. The lesion was homogeneous, oval, and measuring 4 × 5 cm, and it was stable for 2 months. The patient had no history of thrombocytopenia and no known allergy. The physical examination was not very helpful and did not find any palpable breast lesion besides a 1-cm left axillary lymphadenopathy. Breast screening revealed a solid, poorly delineated structure of 11 mm. Biopsies were taken and revealed a NOS grade II invasive carcinoma, triple negative, with a Ki-67 proliferation index of 15%. The axillary cytology was positive. Faced with this atypical presentation, a skin biopsy was performed on the bruise in order to exclude skin invasion. Histology showed the presence of carcinomatous lymphatic dermal emboli which could correspond to a mammary origin as well as extravasation of blood in the dermis explaining this ecchymotic aspect. Bone scintigraphy found discrete uptake in the rib cage, spine, and pelvis, suspicious in this context, but a benign origin could not be ruled out. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy was initiated before mastectomy and left axillary node dissection. It was an atypical and rare clinical presentation of advanced breast cancer with no similar case found in the literature. Usually, the presence of emboli with carcinomatous cells obstructing the lymphatic vessels is related to inflammatory breast cancer or carcinomatous mastitis. The authors nevertheless point out that although the presence of tumor emboli in the dermal lymphatic vessels is favorable to the diagnosis, it is not required. In addition, dermal lymphatic invasion without a typical clinical presentation is not sufficient to confirm the diagnosis of carcinomatous mastitis. An important diagnostic criterion is the rapidity of aggravation of the symptoms, which, even if it was not obvious in our case, was present with progressive evolution of the skin lesion over several weeks. The skin lesion of our patient could also make us suspect a primary breast angiosarcoma. This possibility was quickly eliminated in the absence of vascular tumor proliferation on the various biopsies. Any acute purpura is a serious disease to be diagnosed urgently, and a skin biopsy is indicated.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the knowledge of pregnant women and provide information about Down syndrome (DS) screening, including non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT). MATERIALS AND METHODS: A prospective unicenter study of pregnant women recruited during their first trimester foetal ultrasound was carried out. Single pregnancies from 11 to 17 + 6 weeks of amenorrhoea (SA) without a history of DS were included. "Pre" and "post" questionnaire were fulfilled before and after the consultation. Patient characteristics, prior information, information provided during the consultation, and patient satisfaction were also analysed. RESULTS: A total of 273 were included in the study, and 147 completed surveys (pre and post) were examined. In pre-consultation, 82 % of women know that integrated screening includes maternal serum markers and nuchal translucency (n = 103). Concerning NIPT for DS, 8% (n = 11) of women declare having been informed before the ultrasound. A minority of patients know modalities of reimbursement (n = 33, 26 %) and invasive sampling is mandatory for diagnosis when NIPT is positive (n = 37, 28 %). Significant improvement in right answers was obtained for three questions: "nuchal translucency is included in the combined screening test for DS" (p = 0,007); "blood serum markers is included in the combined screening for DS" (p = 0,009) and advanced maternal age increases risk for DS" (p = 0,004). Total score in the post questionnaire was significantly higher than the "pre" consultation questionnaire (14,7 ± 2.8 versus 14,1 ± 2.9; p = 0.01). CONCLUSION: Patients show a high level of knowledge on screening strategies for DS in pre-consultation. They benefit from the consultation on global knowledge, NIPT, and ultrasound notions.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Typically, the axillary arch is defined as a fleshy slip running from latissimus dorsi to the anterior aspect of the humerus. Phylogeny seems to give the most relevant and plausible explanation of this anatomical variant as a remnant of the panniculus carnosus. However, authors are not unanimous about its origin. We report herein the incidence of axillary arch in a series of 40 human female dissections and present an embryologic and a comparative study in three domestic mammals. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Forty formalin-preserved Caucasian human female cadavers, one rat (Rattus norvegicus), one rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) and one pig (Sus scrofa domesticus) cadavers were dissected bilaterally. A comparative, analytical and a descriptive studies of serial human embryological sections were carried out. RESULTS: We found an incidence of axillary arch of 2.5% (n = 1 subject of 40) in Humans. We found a panniculus carnosus inserted on the anterior aspect of the humerus only in the rat and the rabbit but not in the pig. The development of the latissimus dorsi takes place between Carnegie stage 16-23, but the embryological study failed to explain the genesis of the axillary arch variation. However, comparative anatomy argues in favour of a panniculus carnosus origin of the axillary arch. CONCLUSIONS: With an incidence of 2.5% of cases, the axillary arch is a relatively frequent variant that should be known by clinician and especially surgeons. Moreover, while embryology seems to fail to explain the genesis of this variation, comparative study gives additional arguments which suggest a possible origin from the panniculus carnosus.

RESUMO

Prenatal screening to prevent congenital toxoplasmosis as performed in France for several decades has been questioned in view of the decreasing incidence of this infection and the cost of testing. The French College of Obstetrics and Gynecology mandated a multidisciplinary panel of experts to perform a reassessment of the screening program in accordance with international good practice. In France, about 70% of pregnant women are not immune to T. gondii, and 0.2-0.25% become infected during pregnancy. The risk of maternal-fetal transmission of infection is on average 25-29% and depends greatly on the gestational age at seroconversion. In case of fetal transmission, the outcome is livebirth in 95% of cases, with latent congenital toxoplasmosis in 90% of cases and symptomatic forms in 10% of cases, of which 1/3 are severe and 2/3 moderate. Biological techniques have satisfactory performance regarding serologies for the diagnosis of maternal infections and PCR on amniotic fluid for the prenatal diagnosis of congenital toxoplasmosis. Primary prevention of toxoplasmosis is based on hygiene measures that are relatively simple, but poorly implemented. In case of maternal seroconversion, there is a strong case for prenatal prophylactic treatment as soon as possible (ideally within 3 weeks of seroconversion), spiramycin before 14 weeks of gestation (WG), and with a tendency to superiority of the pyrimethamine/sulfadiazine association over spiramycin beyond 14 W G, in order to reduce the risk of symptomatic congenital toxoplasmosis. In case of congenital toxoplasmosis, prompt initiation of treatment reduces the occurrence of cerebral signs and symptoms, as well as retinal lesions. Several medico-economic evaluations of the French toxoplasmosis screening program have been conducted including an individual cost-effectiveness approach with decision analysis which concluded on the profitability of prenatal screening as carried out in France (monthly surveillance of seronegative women, prenatal treatment in case of seroconversion, termination of pregnancy in severe forms). Though most international societies do not recommend systematic screening for mainly financial reasons, if congenital toxoplasmosis appears benign in France today, it is probably thanks to screening and the possibility of early treatment of fetuses and/or newborns. Thus, the panel recommends continuing for now the program in France for prevention of congenital toxoplasmosis.
