Phyllodes tumors are rare tumors of the breast, with most literature being retrospective with limited guidelines on the management of these patients. Scoping review was performed to highlight themes and gaps in the available literature. A scoping review of the literature was performed as per PRISMA-ScR guidelines with titles, abstracts, and full texts reviewed in duplicate. Data were abstracted and summarized in categories of diagnostics, surgical management, adjuvant therapies, treatment of recurrence, and surveillance. Quality assessment was performed for each paper. The search identified 4498 references, 434 full-text papers were reviewed, and 183 papers were included. Ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging, and core needle biopsy are valuable preoperative diagnostics tools. Pathology reporting should include stromal overgrowth, stromal cellularity, nuclear atypia, mitotic rate, borders, and presence of heterologous elements. Ki67 may have a role in grading and prognosticating. Breast conservation is safe in all grades of phyllodes but may be associated with increased local recurrence in malignant phyllodes. Surgical margins should depend on grade. Axillary node positivity rate is very low, even with clinically enlarged lymph nodes. Adjuvant radiation is a useful tool to decrease local recurrence in malignant phyllodes tumors, tumors > 5 cm, age < 45 years, close margins, and breast conservation. There is no evidence supporting adjuvant chemotherapy. Recurrence can be managed with repeat wide excision; however, mastectomy is associated with lower re-recurrence. Surveillance protocols are variable in the literature. There is heterogeneity in the literature on phyllodes tumors. Consensus guidelines based on the literature will help provide evidence-based care.There is heterogeneity in the literature on phyllodes tumors.

Segmentectomy has been increasingly used for lung cancer treatment, however there are very limited data evaluating the postoperative pulmonary function of patients treated with complex segmentectomy. We evaluated the postoperative pulmonary function of patients who underwent complex segmentectomy compared with simple segmentectomy, wedge resection, and lobectomy. We retrospectively analyzed data from 580 patients who underwent surgical resection. The patients were divided into four groups complex segmentectomy (n = 135), simple segmentectomy (n = 83), wedge resection (n = 89), and lobectomy (n = 273). Functional testing included forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV ), and predicted diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (%DLCO) measured preoperatively and at 12 months after surgery. During the postoperative course, the complex segmentectomy and simple segmentectomy groups showed a comparable course of pulmonary function. The complex segmentectomy group significantly preserved pulmonary function compared with the lobectomy group (FVC, p = 0.017; FEV , p = 0.010; %DLCO, p = 0.0043). A similar trend was observed even when restricted to lung diseases in the right upper lobe. On the other hand, when comparing complex segmentectomy with wedge resection, complex segmentectomy showed a trend that was more disadvantageous than wedge resection, but this difference was not significant (FVC, p = 0.19; FEV , p = 0.40; %DLCO, p = 0.96). Complex segmentectomy showed comparable postoperative pulmonary functions as simple segmentectomy. Complex segmentectomy could preserve pulmonary function significantly compared with lobectomy and did not result in significant loss compared with wedge resection.Complex segmentectomy showed comparable postoperative pulmonary functions as simple segmentectomy.

Resection margin status is considered one of the few surgeon-controlled parameters affecting prognosis in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). While studies mostly focus on resection margins in pancreatoduodenectomy, little is known about their role in distal pancreatectomy (DP). This study aimed to investigate resection margins in DP for PDAC. Patients who underwent DP for PDAC between October 2004 and February 2020 were included (n=124). Resection margins and associated parameters were studied in two consecutive time periods during which different pathology examination protocols were used non-standardized (period 1 2004-2014) and standardized (period 2 2015-2020). Microscopic margin involvement (R1) was defined as ≤1mm clearance. Laparoscopic and open resections were performed in 117 (94.4%) and 7 (5.6%) patients, respectively. The R1 rate for the entire cohort was 73.4%, increasing from 60.4% in period 1 to 83.1% in period 2 (p=0.005). A significantly higher R1 rate was observed for the posterior margin (35.8 vs. 70.4%, p<0.001) and anterior pancreatic surface (based on a 0mm clearance; 18.9 vs. 35.4%, p=0.045). Pathology examination period, poorly differentiated PDAC, and vascular invasion were associated with R1 in the multivariable model. Extended DP, positive anterior pancreatic surface, lymph node ratio, perineural invasion, and adjuvant chemotherapy, but not R1, were significant prognostic factors for overall survival in the entire cohort. Pathology examination is a key determinant of resection margin status following DP for PDAC. A high R1 rate is to be expected when pathology examination is meticulous and standardized.

Recently, a milder phenotype consisting of late-onset spastic ataxia without hypomyelinating leukodystrophy has been suggested to be specific to the intronic c.1909 + 22G > A mutation in POLR3A. Here, we present 10 patients from 8 unrelated families with POLR3A-related late-onset spastic ataxia, all harboring the c.1909 + 22G > A variant. Most of them showed an ataxic-spastic picture, two a "pure" cerebellar phenotype, and one a "pure" spastic presentation. The non-neurological findings typically associated with POLR3A mutations were absent in all the patients. The main findings on brain MRI were bilateral hyperintensity along the superior cerebellar peduncles on FLAIR sequences, observed in most of the patients, and cerebellar and/or spinal cord atrophy, found in half of the patients.
