Overall, 32 of the 44 radiated patients required permanent diversion (72%), compared to 3 of the 42 non-radiated patients (7%) (p<0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: Patients who undergo pelvic radiation prior to EUF and UCF
to identify a group of women who had a higher risk (53%) of developing brain tumors: those <50 years old with ER-negative breast cancer. In contrast, there was a 12% risk for women ≥50 years old with ER-positive cancer. There was no association between pri- mary-tumor pathology and...
Patients with severe renal impairment (CrCl <30 mL/min) or receiving dialysis are at greater risk of developing hypocalcemia. Regular monitoring of calcium levels is especially important in these patients Common: Of special interest: Zoledronic Acid (Zometa)40 Chemical Agent (bisphosphonate, synthetic...
