Abstract
Breast cancer is the most common malignant tumor worldwide, and mastectomy remains the primary strategy for treating early stage breast cancer. However, the complication rates, surgical variables, and oncologic safety of minimally invasive nipple-sparing mastectomy (MINSM) have not been fully addressed. We systematically searched PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and the Cochrane Library for randomized-controlled trials (RCTs) and non-RCTs that compared MINSM with conventional nipple-sparing mastectomy (CNSM), both followed by Prosthesis Breast Reconstruction (PBR). The main outcomes observed included overall complications, (Grade III) complications, skin and nipple necrosis, wound dehiscence, infection, seroma, hematoma, implant loss, and oncologic safety (positive margins and recurrence). Secondary outcomes included operation time, blood loss, hospital stay, cost-effectiveness, and patient satisfaction. Binary and continuous variables were compared using odds ratios (OR) and mean differences (MD) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). A total of 10 studies involving 2,166 patients were included. There were no statistically significant differences between MINSM and CNSM in terms of skin necrosis, wound dehiscence, infection, seroma, hematoma, implant loss, or oncologic safety. However, MINSM significantly reduced overall complications (OR = 0. 74, 95% CI [0. 58, 0. 94], p = 0. 01) and (Grade III) complications (OR = 0. 47, 95% CI [0. 31, 0. 71], p = 0. 0003). Nipple necrosis events were also significantly reduced in the MINSM group (OR = 0. 49, 95% CI [0. 30, 0. 80], p = 0. 005). Patient satisfaction improved notably in the MINSM group. Additionally, compared with the CNSM group, the MINSM group had longer operating times (MD = 46. 88, 95% CI [19. 55, 74. 21], p = 0. 0008) and hospital stays (MD = 1. 39, 95% CI [0. 65, 2. 12], p < 0. 001), while intraoperative blood loss was significantly reduced (MD = -29. 05, 95% CI [-36. 20, -21. 90], p < 0. 001). Compared with CNSM, MINSM offers advantages in reducing complications and intraoperative blood loss, as well as improving aesthetic outcomes and patient satisfaction. Therefore, MINSM may become a viable option for breast surgery. Nevertheless, a long-term evaluation of the oncologic safety of this approach is necessary to ensure its efficacy and safety for patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although there is increasing interest in minimally invasive prosthesis breast reconstruction (PBR), whether meshes application in minimally invasive PBR can improve complications and cosmetic effects remains controversial. The author retrospectively analyzed postoperative complications and evaluated patient-reported quality-of-life outcomes in minimally invasive PBR with and without mesh. METHODS This study enrolled patients who underwent minimally invasive nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) followed by PBR. We used the TiLOOP bra for the mesh-assisted procedure. Patient demographics and postoperative complications data were compared between the procedures. Patient-reported outcomes were evaluated with the Breast-Q. RESULTS A total of 158 patients underwent 160 minimally invasive NSM-PBR (with mesh, n = 64; without, n = 94). Postoperative complications were comparable in the mesh-assisted (5 [7.7%]) and non-mesh-assisted (5 [5.3%]) groups (p = 0.533). The most common complication in non-mesh-assisted group was infection, with four (4.2%) cases. In mesh-assisted group, implant exposure occurred in two (3.1%) patients. Removal of prosthesis was uncommon, with two (3.1%) and three (3.2%) cases in the mesh-assisted and non-mesh groups, respectively (p = 0.977). The BREAST-Q questionnaire was completed by 52 (81.3%) patients in the mesh-assisted group and 68 (72.3%) in the non-mesh-assisted group. Comparing the non-mesh group, patients in mesh-assisted group had improved scores on the BREAST-Q Satisfaction with breast (66.0) (p < 0.05), Physical Well-being (80.0), and Sexual Well-being (56.0). CONCLUSIONS Mesh-assisted minimally invasive NSM-PBR has good aesthetic outcomes and high patient satisfaction. There were no significant differences in complication rates between the mesh-assisted and non-mesh-assisted groups.

Abstract
Combinations of different therapeutic strategies, including chemotherapy (CT), chemodynamic therapy (CDT), and photothermal therapy (PTT), are needed to effectively address evolving drug resistance and the adverse effects of traditional cancer treatment. Herein, a camouflage composite nanoformulation (TCBG@PR), an antitumor agent (tubercidin, Tub) loaded into Cu-doped bioactive glasses (CBGs) and subsequently camouflaged by polydopamine (PDA), and red blood cell membranes (RBCm), was successfully constructed for targeted and synergetic antitumor therapies by combining CT of Tub, CDT of doped copper ions, and PTT of PDA. In addition, the TCBG@PRs composite nanoformulation was camouflaged with a red blood cell membrane (RBCm) to improve biocompatibility, longer blood retention times, and excellent cellular uptake properties. It integrated with long circulation and multimodal synergistic treatment (CT, CDT, and PTT) with the benefit of RBCms to avoid immune clearance for efficient targeted delivery to tumor locations, producing an "all-in-one" nanoplatform. In vivo results showed that the TCBG@PRs composite nanoformulation prolonged blood circulation and improved tumor accumulation. The combination of CT, CDT, and PTT therapies enhanced the antitumor therapeutic activity, and light-triggered drug release reduced systematic toxicity and increased synergistic antitumor effects.

Abstract
Breast cancer has emerged as a leading cause of mortality among women. Photothermal therapy represents a recent therapeutic modality for eradicating localized tumors, albeit hindered by its limited penetration into tumor tissues. Recognizing the potential of photothermal therapy to induce immunogenic cell death in tumor cells, we explored a gene delivery approach utilizing small interfering RNA targeting programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1), abbreviated as siPD-L1, to bolster the anti-tumor immune response elicited by this therapy. Nonetheless, the suboptimal release efficiency and inherent instability of RNA molecules have posed challenges to their therapeutic efficacy. In this study, we designed a glutathione (GSH)/pH-responsive micelle system, employing biocompatible and low-toxicity polyethyleneimine in conjunction with structurally robust pluronic P123, to encapsulate both indocyanine green (ICG) and siPD-L1 for precise targeting in breast cancer treatment. The resulting PSP/ICG/siPD-L1 nanocarrier demonstrated admirable biocompatibility and stability. Upon internalization into tumor cells, this nanocarrier exhibited rapid release of both ICG and siPD-L1, responding to the acidic tumor microenvironment and GSH conditions. The inclusion of siPD-L1 effectively downregulated the expression of PD-L1 on the tumor cell surface, thereby impeding tumor growth. Additionally, ICG demonstrated a photothermal effect when exposed to near-infrared light. Both in vitro and in vivo investigations substantiated the nanocarrier's efficacy against tumor cells, culminating in the complete ablation of 4T1 tumors in situ. Consequently, PSP/ICG/siPD-L1 emerges as a promising nanocarrier candidate for augmenting anti-tumor immunity through the synergistic combination of photothermal therapy and gene-based intervention.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Minimally invasive (robotic or laparoscopic-assisted) nipple-sparing mastectomy combined with prosthesis breast reconstruction (NSM-PBR) is associated with smaller scars and greater patient satisfaction. However, the oncological safety of minimally invasive NSM-PBR remains controversial. PATIENTS AND METHODS This was a retrospective study of patients with breast cancer who underwent breast reconstruction between 1 January 2006 and 20 February 2021. Demographic and clinicopathological characteristics, operation information, postoperative complications, and survival outcomes were analyzed. RESULTS In all, 292 patients underwent minimally invasive NSM-PBR and 205 underwent open NSM-PBR for breast cancer. In the minimally invasive NSM-PBR group, 268 (91.8%) patients underwent laparoscopy and 24 (8.2%) patients underwent robot-assisted NSM-PBR. Mean operation time in the minimally invasive NSM-PBR group was significantly longer than that in the open NSM-PBR group (P = 0.023). Mean intraoperative blood loss was significantly less in the minimally invasive NSM-PBR group (P < 0.05). There was no significant between-group difference in total complications. Similarly, there were no significant between-group differences in overall survival, recurrence-free survival, and local recurrence rate (P = 0.450, P = 0.613, and P = 0.679, respectively). CONCLUSIONS The complication, recurrence, and mortality rates in minimally invasive NSM-PBR group were comparable to those in open NSM-PBR group. Our preliminary results are encouraging and suggest that minimally invasive NSM-PBR affords good cosmetic results and its oncological safety is comparable to that of open surgery.

Abstract
Lymph node (LN) involvement is the strongest prognostic factor in operable breast cancer (BC). Therefore, accurate assessment of LN status is essential for management of BC patients. The introduction of sentinel LN approach reduced the need for extensive axillary surgery to achieve accurate staging. However, positive sentinel LN as determined on postoperative histological examination often leads to a second axillary operation to ensure an accurate staging and that positive non-sentinel LNs are removed. Although preoperative assessment of LN has improved significantly, its accuracy remains insufficient to avoid further axillary surgery and is not sufficient to predict the status of the LN. Therefore, intraoperative evaluation of the sentinel LN to determine the need for completing lymph node dissection in case of metastasis can provide an important approach to guide BC management decision making. This article reviews the techniques available and under development for intraoperative detection of sentinel LN metastasis in BC surgery. The key features of each technique are described in detail, emphasising the benefits offered by label-free optical techniques: minimal sample preparation, high spatial resolution, and immediate on-site implementation. Optical techniques have the potential to provide a cost-effective and accurate intraoperative platform for the assessment of SLN within the operating theatre.

Abstract
Traditionally, patients with newly diagnosed invasive breast cancer underwent axillary US to assess for suspicious axillary lymph nodes (LNs), which were then targeted for image-guided needle biopsy to determine the presence of metastasis. Over the past decade, there has been a shift towards axillary preservation. For patients with palpable lymphadenopathy, the decision to perform axillary imaging with documentation of the number and location of abnormal LNs in preparation for image-guided LN sampling is straightforward. Since LN involvement correlates with cancer size, it is reasonable to image the axilla in patients with tumors larger than 5 cm; however, for tumors smaller than 5 cm, axillary imaging is often deferred until after the tumor molecular subtype and treatment plan are established. Over the last decade, neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) is increasingly used for smaller cancers with more aggressive molecular subtypes. In most cases, detecting axillary metastasis is critical when deciding whether the patient would benefit from NACT. There is increasing evidence that abnormal axillary US findings correlates with LN metastases and reliably establishes a baseline to monitor response to NACT. Depending on hormone receptor status, practices may choose to image the axilla in the setting of clinical stage T1 and T2 cancers to evaluate nodal status and help determine further steps in care. Radiologists should understand the nuances of axillary management and the scope and challenges of LN marking techniques that significantly increase the precision of limited axillary surgery.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The starting point of neoadjuvant therapy was to use preoperative chemotherapy in order to provide surgeons and radiotherapists with the possibility of local treatment in patients with locally advanced, primary inoperable or inflammatory disease. Since then, this treatment approach has dramatically evolved and is now a standard of care in patients with high-risk early breast cancer. RECENT FINDINGS The role of surgery after neoadjuvant therapy is to remove residual disease in the breast and or in the lymph nodes and to provide further treatment possibilities according to pathohistologic findings at surgery. SUMMARY Innovative medical treatments are now being used for neoadjuvant treatment in order to reduce the extent of locoregional surgery in the breast and the axilla and also to adjust further medical treatment after neoadjuvant therapy and surgery.

Abstract
Background As one of the main malignant tumors, breast cancer remains a worldwide public health issue. Here, we aimed to analyze the effects of breast-conserving surgery (BCS) combined with sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) and axillary preservation on the recurrence, metastasis, complications, and cosmetic results of early breast cancer patients (BCPs). Methods The clinical data of 143 BCPs admitted to our hospital from January 2017 to January 2019 were collected retrospectively, and all patients were female. Patients (76 cases) undergoing BCS combined with SLNB and axillary preservation treatment were set as the combined group, and 67 cases undergoing traditional modified radical surgery were set as the control group. After the perioperative conditions of patients in the two groups were compared, the patients were followed up for 14 months to record information on the quality of life, recurrence, metastasis, complications, and cosmetic results. Results The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, and extubation time of the combined group were significantly less than the control group (P<0.05); the quality of life of patients in both groups improved after treatment, but the quality of life of patients in the combined group was significantly higher than that of the control group (P<0.05); both groups of patients were followed up for 14 months after treatment, and there were no deaths. The rates of local recurrence and distant metastasis were 2.98% and 5.97% in the control group and 5.26% and 6.57% in the combined group, respectively, showing no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05); the incidence of postoperative complications was 14.92% in the control group, which was significantly higher than the incidence of 3.94% of the combined group (P<0.05); the proportion of postoperative cosmetic results with an excellent and good rating was 59.7% in the control group, which was significantly lower than the 93.42% reported in the combined group (P<0.05). Conclusions BCS combined with SLNB and axillary preservation provided good clinical and cosmetic results and can improve the quality of life of patients and reduce the rate of recurrence and metastasis.
