This book, entitled Breast Reconstruction - Conceptual Evolution, is dedicated to women all over the world. We hope that individuals who suffer from breast cancer or breast disease or deformity can easily get current knowledge to overcome the misery and difficulties that they may encounter. The breast is an important structure of the human body in terms of function and aesthetics. Affected individuals may experience concerns related to alterations in breast morphology, including changes in breast size, shape, volume, profile, and silhouette, as well as variations in the size, shape, and projection of the nipple-areolar complex.”. Simply aesthetic problems of breasts encompass hypoplasia, atrophy, displacement of the nipple-areolar complex, widened areola, redundant nipple, breast ptosis, macromastia, and so on. Nowadays, breast cancer in different stages may need different reconstruction modalities. Postmastectomy breast reconstruction is another big issue for plastic surgeons. This book will address the conceptual evolution of breast recontouring and reconstruction, along with individualized strategies for refining, restoring, and reconstruction approaches.
This book, based on extensive original research in previously unexplored sources, including the party archives, provides a great deal of new information on the disintegration of the Soviet communist party, in 1991 and the preceding years. It argues that, contrary to prevailing views, the party was reformable in late Soviet times, but that attempts to reform it failed: reforms succeeded in preventing the party interfering in the state body, and thereby abolished the party's traditional administrative functions, but without creating an alternative power centre, and without transforming the party from a vanguard party into a parliamentary party. It demonstrates that the party, having ceased to ...

In 1996, the National Bladder Foundation (NBF) was founded by a dedicated group of physicians and researchers propeIled by the urgent need to find better treatments for bladder disease. Committed to increasing bladder disease research and to supporting its research community, the NBF coordinates and sponsors the International Bladder Symposium (IBS) in Washington, DC. Now considered to be a premier scientific assembly, the IBS brings together international leaders in bladder disease research to present and discuss their findings. It is the only international conference where all areas of bladder disease research are exclusively covered and where bladder disease researchers are provided with ...
Cardiotoxicity may be caused by radiotherapy and/or anticancer agents for many malignancies, adverse effects of some drugs in the context of medical intervention or heavy metal intake, especially during the anticancer therapy. This book intends to bring forward the recent development in toxicities from cancer treatment. It updates the possible mechanisms of cardiotoxicities of some anticancer agents and the suggested prevention and treatment strategies. This book contains many valuable contributions from the researchers in oncology and cardiology as well as the clinicians who are experts in this field.
The identification of effective biomarkers has becoming a major focus in cancer research, mainly due to the necessity of selecting potentially responsive patients in order to improve their outcomes, as well as to reduce the toxicity and costs related to ineffective treatments. In genitourinary tumors, the lack of biomarkers does not allow for the development of personalized strategies for a single patient, thus representing a major goal in this field. This eBook includes the description of these emerging techniques and identify the most promising biomarkers in genitourinary tumors.
