Salmon-colored and white areas on dermoscopy as supportive findings in the diagnosis of primary cutaneous marginal zone lymphoma

EP1155 Endoscopic near infrared and indocyanine green to verify the viability of the subcutaneous flap for vulvar cancer
2019
Introduction/Background Vulvar cancer often requires radical vulvectomy with subsequent vulvar flap due to tumor aggressiveness and a high percentage of relapses. Approximately in 20–60% of cases, there are post-operative complications ranging from infection to wound dehiscence, lymphocele and flap necrosis that often require reoperation. Several methods have been described to verify the vitality of the flap, especially in plastic surgery, but these are often expensive and require specific machinery that is not generally present in a gynecological clinic. We present a viability verification of V-Y fasciocutaneous advancement flap for vulvar reconstruction by Endoscopic Near-Infrared and Ind…

Usefulness of the Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio as a Predictor of Pneumonia and Urinary Tract Infection Within the First Week After Acute Ischemic S…
2021
Background: A high Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) has been associated with post-stroke infections, but it's role as an early predictive biomarker for post-stroke pneumonia (PSP) and urinary tract infection (UTI) is not clear. Aim: To investigate the usefulness of NLR obtained within 24 h after AIS for predicting PSP and UTI in the first week. Methods: Clinical and laboratory data were retrieved from the University Hospital Brussels stroke database/electronic record system. Patients were divided into those who developed PSP or UTI within the first week after stroke onset and those who didn't. Receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curves a…
The ISTH bleeding assessment tool as predictor of bleeding events in inherited platelet disorders: Communication from the ISTH SSC Subcommittee on Pl…
2021
Background: The ISTH Bleeding Assessment Tool (ISTH-BAT) has been validated for clinical screening of suspected von Willebrand disease (VWD) and for bleeding prediction. Recently it has been validated for subjects with inherited platelet disorders (IPD) (BAT-VAL study). Objectives: To determine whether the ISTH-BAT bleeding score (BS) predicts subsequent bleeding events requiring treatment in IPD patients. Methods: Patients with IPD, type 1 VWD (VWD-1) and age- and sex-matched healthy controls enrolled in the BAT-VAL study were prospectively followed-up for 2 years and bleeding episodes requiring treatment were recorded. Results: Of the 1098 subjects initially enrolled, 955 were followed-up…
Patterns of changes of anti‐ADAMTS13 after plasma exchange
2006
An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) has recently been developed to detect antibodies against the von Willebrand factor-cleaving protease ADAMTS13 in patients with thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP). The ELISA is based on incubation of plasma with immobilized recombinant ADAMTS13 followed by visualization of IgG and IgM antibodies by means of secondary enzyme-labeled antibodies [1]. In a recent study, anti-ADAMTS13 IgG antibodies were detected in most patients with TTP (97%) characterized by severe ADAMTS13 deficiency (< 10% of normal) [1]. The ELISA was more sensitive than the standard inhibitor assay based upon ADAMTS13 neutralizing activity, which gave positive results in …
Transfusion-related acute lung injury after intravenous immunoglobulin treatment in a lung transplant recipient
2012
Three weeks after single-lung transplantation for pulmonary fibrosis, a patient with high serum levels of de novo donor-specific antibodies received high-dose intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) infusion (scheduled dose: 2 g/kg on 2 days) to prevent antibody-mediated rejection. Within the first hours after completion of infusions, he experienced acute lung injury involving the transplanted lung. Given the clinical evolution and the absence of an alternative diagnosis, transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI) was diagnosed. The IVIG administered on each day was from the same batch. At day 110, because of an increase in the serum titers of donor-specific antibodies, IVIG therapy was reintr…
Evaluation of Safety, Tolerability and Efficacy of Temsirolimus in Patients with Relapsed or Refractory Mantle Cell Lymphoma (Rel/Refr Mcl) in Routin…
2014
ABSTRACT Aim: Temsirolimus (TEMS), an mTOR-inhibitor, is approved in the EU for the treatment of patients (pts) with relapsed or refractory (rel/refr) MCL. A pivotal study demonstrated significantly longer progression free survival with TEMS (175 mg weekly for 3 weeks followed by 75 mg weekly) in rel/refr MCL pts compared to investigatoŕs choice therapy (4.8 mo vs 1.9 mo; P = .0009). To evaluate safety and efficacy of TEMS in an unselected patient population during clinical routine, a prospective non-interventional study with TEMS in rel/refr MCL pts is useful. Here we report on interim results of the study. Methods: A German multicenter registry for rel/refr MCL pts treated with TEMS was s…
Outcomes of Mismatched Related Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation for Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia: A Retrospective Study on Behalf of the Chronic …
2016
Abstract Introduction: Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) is a treatment for CLL that can give long disease control. Even with the availability of kinase and BCL2 inhibitors, HCT is still performed in fit patients (pts) with high-risk CLL. Almost exclusively, outcomes on matched related and unrelated donor transplantations in CLL have been published. Recently, mismatched related donors are gaining interest because of the better outcome of haploidentical HCT with post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCY). Methods: All pts with CLL who received a first allogeneic HCT with a mismatched related donor and whose data were available in the EBMT registry were analyzed. Medi…
