Impact of Preoperative Embolization on Surgical Outcomes in Carotid Paraganglioma Resection: A Retrospective Cohort Study.

This retrospective cohort study evaluates the impact of preoperative embolization (PE) on surgical outcomes in carotid paraganglioma resections. Carotid paragangliomas are rare, highly vascular tumors that pose significant surgical challenges due to their proximity to critical neurovascular structures. Although PE has been proposed to reduce intraoperative bleeding, operative time, and complications, its efficacy remains debated.

Surgical Resection and Abdominal Wall Reconstruction of a Rapidly Progressive Desmoid Tumor: A Case Report.

Desmoid tumors (DTs) are rare, locally invasive soft tissue neoplasms characterized by fibroblastic proliferation and a lack of metastatic potential. Despite their histologically benign nature, their infiltrative behavior and unpredictable progression present significant therapeutic challenges, particularly when located in the abdominal wall, where resection and reconstruction may be necessary. We present the case of a 37-year-old woman with a rapidly enlarging, painful mass in the right rectus abdominis muscle.

Giant myxoid retroperitoneal liposarcoma in a 41-year-old patient: A case report.

Introduction: Retroperitoneal Liposarcomas (RL) are a rare form of malignant tumors, they encompass just 5 % ot these and mainly present in female adults between 50 and 60 years of age. They can be divided into 4 morphological subtypes: 1) well-differentiated, 2) undifferentiated, 3) myxoid, and 4) pleomorphic.

Case Presentation: 41-year-old male who present to the outpatient consult of oncological surgery after being diagnosed via imaging with a giant retroperitoneal liposarcoma.
