Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La plupart des traitements du cancer du sein ont pour conséquence une ablation du sein abritant le foyer tumoral, avec ou sans reconstruction immédiate. Cette avancée chirurgicale a pour objectif d'éradiquer la tumeur et son évolution, également de préserver une féminité que le chirurgien va devoir malmener. Avec ou sans reconstruction, c'est l'intégrité d'un corps de femme qui est atteinte. Après la guérison organique, le corps doit être réinvesti comme un corps à la fois désirable et désiré. Face à cet impensable que représente l'amputation, les patientes s'avouent submergées par l'angoisse. Car l'ablation d'un sein ouvre obligatoirement sur un sentiment de défiguration du féminin, quel que soit le mode de reconstruction. En s'appuyant sur de nombreux témoignages, les auteurs accompagnent les femmes à toutes les étapes, depuis l'annonce diagnostic jusqu'à la mastectomie et au travail de deuil qui lui est assorti. Répondant aux questions, mettant des mots sur ce qu'elles ressentent, mettant à bas les préjugés, elles les aident à se réapproprier leur corps et à pouvoir à nouveau le regarder. Car le regard, qui tient une place essentielle et structurante d'un point de vue narcissique dans la construction de l'individu, est en jeu à chaque étape de la vie.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La mastectomie représente encore le traitement curatif d'un grand nombre de patientes atteintes d'un cancer du sein. L'objectif de la reconstruction mammaire est double. Il est d'abord et avant tout psychologique. Mais il est également morphologique en se fixant comme objectif la restauration d'un sein de volume, de forme et de consistance la plus proche possible du sein controlatéral. Deux alternatives s'offrent au chirurgien, la reconstruction mammaire par implants qui utilise des prothèses afin de restaurer le volume uniquement, et la reconstruction mammaire autologue qui utilise les tissus de la patiente pour assurer le volume et la couverture. Il s'agit le plus souvent des lambeaux de grand droit de l'abdomen (rectus abdominis) et de grand dorsal (latissimus dorsi). Nous avons analysé les résultats obtenues par reconstruction mammaire après mastectomie chez 116 patientes opérées par le même chirurgien entre 1996 et 2002 au sein de l'unité de chirurgie plastique du centre hospitalier universitaire de Grenoble .L'étude concerne uniquement les reconstructions par implants et celles par lambeau de grand dorsal sans prothèse. L'analyse a porté sur des critères morphologiques permettant ainsi de juger la qualité de la reconstruction et sur les principales complications de chacune des techniques ainsi que sur le taux global de réinterventions. La reconstruction de la plaque aréolo-mamelonnaire qui est réalisée selon la même technique n'a pas été évaluée. Les résultats ainsi obtenus montrent un net avantage à la reconstruction autologue principalement par absence de contractures périprothétiques, qui viennent détériorer les résultats des reconstructions par implants, et par une meilleure évolution dans le temps avec un taux d'asymétrie plus faible. Ces deux facteurs contribuent à un taux de réinterventions bien plus élevé en cas de reconstruction prothétique. Dans le cadre des reconstructions autologues, le lambeau de grand dorsal peut être considéré comme une alternative intéressante au lambeau de grand droit de l'abdomen de part sa fiabilité, sa relative simplicité d'exécution et ses suites opératoires moins contraignantes. Cette alternative thérapeutique permettra certainement en adaptant au mieux l'indication chirurgicale à chaque patiente d'obtenir de meilleurs résultats et à long terme.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lorsque le cancer du sein a pour conséquence une ablation, avec ou sans reconstruction, qu'elle soit immédiate ou différée, l'intégrité d'un corps de femme est atteinte. Après le traitement, un temps est nécessaire pour pouvoir réinvestir le féminin qui reste à reconstruire sur le plan psychique. Et la détresse des patientes est d'autant plus grande qu'elle est méconnue par les proches et les soignants. De l'annonce du diagnostic à la mastectomie et au travail de deuil qui s'ensuit, Lydia Taïeb et Elise Ricadat, psychologues-cliniciennes, accompagnent les femmes et leur entourage à chaque étape. A travers de nombreux témoignages, elles répondent aux questions que pose la reconstruction mammaire, mettent des mots sur les sentiments éprouvés, vont à l'encontre des préjugés, et aident ainsi les femmes à se réapproprier leur corps et à pouvoir de nouveau le regarder, un geste essentiel dans la construction de soi.

Download or read book Managing Breast Cancer Risk written by Monica Morrow and published by PMPH-USA. This book was released on 2003 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Managing Breast Cancer Risk is a single source for information needed by primary care physicians, nurses, gynecologists, as well as oncologic specialists who deal with women who are concerned about breast cancer. Its purpose is to bring together a multidisciplinary group of experts to address breast cancer risk in a clinically meaningful way. Chapters providing detailed information on individual risk factors are accompanied by a discussion of models, which integrate multiple factors for a more complete assessment of risk. Traditional strategies for risk management, including surveillance and prophylactic surgery, are reviewed, and the data on newer techniques such as ductal lavage and screening with magnetic resonance is presented. The rational for chemoprevention with selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMS) is discussed, and the evidence for tamoxifen as a chemopreventative is updated. The potential for chemoprevention with newer SERMS and the aromatase inhibitors is reviewed. Finally, the critical (and often ignored) areas of quality of life and symptom management are addressed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Strategic health planning, the cornerstone of initiatives designed to achieve health improvement goals around the world, requires an understanding of the comparative burden of diseases and injuries, their corresponding risk factors and the likely effects of invervention options. The Global Burden of Disease framework, originally published in 1990, has been widely adopted as the preferred method for health accounting and has become the standard to guide the setting of health research priorities. This publication sets out an updated assessment of the situation, with an analysis of trends observed since 1990 and a chapter on the sensitivity of GBD estimates to various sources of uncertainty in methods and data.

Download or read book Preventive Strikes written by Ilana Löwy and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2010-01-18 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner, 2011 Best Book in the History of Medicine, European Association for the History of Medicine and Health Modern scientific tools can identify a genetic predisposition to cancer before any disease is detectable. Some women will never develop breast or ovarian cancer, but they nevertheless must decide, as a result of genetic testing, whether to have their breasts and ovaries removed to avoid the possibility of disease. The striking contrast between the sophistication of diagnosis and the crudeness of preventive surgery forms the basis of historian Ilana Löwy’s important study. Löwy traces the history of prophylactic amputations through a century of preventive treatment and back to a long tradition of surgical management of gynecological problems. In the early twentieth century, surgeons came to believe that removing precancerous lesions—a term difficult to define even today—averted the danger of malignancy. This practice, Löwy finds, later led to surgical interventions for women with a hereditary predisposition to cancer but no detectable disease. Richly detailed stories of patients and surgeons in the United States, France, and the United Kingdom allow Löwy to compare the evolution of medical thought and practice—and personal choice—in these different cultures. Preventive Strikes aims to improve our understanding of professional, social, and cultural responses to cancer in the twenty-first century and to inform our reflections about how values are incorporated into routine medical practices.Ilana Löwy
Download or read book Mammographies written by Mary K. DeShazer and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2018-05-09 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While breast cancer continues to affect the lives of millions, contemporary writers and artists have responded to the ravages of the disease in creative expression. Mary K. DeShazer’s book looks specifically at breast cancer memoirs and photographic narratives, a category she refers to as mammographies, signifying both the imaging technology by which most Western women discover they have this disease and the documentary imperatives that drive their written and visual accounts of it. Mammographies argues that breast cancer narratives of the past ten years differ from their predecessors in their bold address of previously neglected topics such as the link between cancer and environmental carcinogens, the ethics and efficacy of genetic testing and prophylactic mastectomy, and the shifting politics of prosthesis and reconstruction. Mammographies is distinctive among studies of contemporary illness narratives in its exclusive focus on breast cancer, its analysis of both memoirs and photographic texts, its attention to hybrid and collaborative narratives, and its emphasis on ecological, genetic, transnational, queer, and anti-pink discourses. DeShazer’s methodology—best characterized as literary critical, feminist, and interdisciplinary—includes detailed interpretation of the narrative strategies, thematic contours, and visual imagery of a wide range of contemporary breast cancer memoirs and photographic anthologies. The author explores the ways in which the narratives constitute a distinctive testimonial and memorial tradition, a claim supported by close readings and theoretical analysis that demonstrates how these narratives question hegemonic cultural discourses, empower reader-viewers as empathic witnesses, and provide communal sites for mourning, resisting, and remembering.
Download or read book Augmentation Mastopexy written by M. Bradley Calobrace and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-10-05 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Breast augmentation paired with mastopexy is often regarded as a challenging procedure since it is essentially two surgeries in one. Because of the complexity of the dual procedure, as well as the careful planning required, many doctors avoid performing these surgeries together, instead preferring their patient to undergo two separate surgeries.These two procedures can be safely performed with methodical planning and intra operative execution. This book provides not only insight and instruction on a variety of mastopexy procedures and accompanying types of breast augmentation, but it will also help the clinician determine the optimal surgery for each individual patient. Primarily meant for practicing aesthetic plastic surgeons, Augmentation Mastopexy -- Mastering the Art in the Management of the Ptotic Breast will also find use among plastic surgery fellows and plastic surgery residents. Unlike some of the competitive literature that briefly touches on the topic or simply provides an overview, the information provided is methodical and comprehensive, providing a wealth of color images to accompany the techniques described. Case studies with long-term follow up are also included, offering not only an understanding of potential pitfalls but a veritable how-to for handling complications when they do arise.
