“…Many methods can be used for the localization of lesions. For example, WGL and SGL techniques, carbon black powder, ultrasound‐guided localization, the ROLL technique, the use of radioactive seeds, dye injection, the use of hydrogel‐encapsulated clips, localization with SAVI SCOUT and indocyanine green fluorescence‐guided occult lesion localization (IFOLL) …”

Aim The present study compares the effect and accuracy of the superficial mark guided localization (SGL) and hook‐wire guided localization (WGL) techniques for non‐palpable breast microcalcifications. Methods This retrospective study was conducted to compare SGL and WGL techniques. These techniques were performed on 51 patients with non‐palpable breast microcalcifications from January 2015 to May 2016. Results Among these 51 patients, 25 (49.01%) patients were subjected to WGL and 26 patients (50.99%) were subjected to SGL. The SGL technique had a higher rate of malignant cancer detection (WGL = 12.0% and SGL = 23.0%). Furthermore, no significant differences were found with regard to average age, the rate of a second excision and the diameter of the excised tissue. Moreover, no complications were observed in the SGL group, while four (16.0%) patients in the WGL group experienced problems. Conclusion The SGL technique is as accurate as the WGL technique. Furthermore, the procedure has advantages of being less expensive and causing less complications.

“…ROLL and Wire-Guided Localization are currently the most commonly used techniques, and they obtain important results in the marking. However, these techniques have significant limitations, such as their high cost, the need for a nuclear medicine specialist on the team (in the case of ROLL), and possibility of breakage or displacement of the wire during surgery (4)(5)(6). Thus, it becomes important to search for new more readily accessible and less invasive methods for marking lesions.…”

“…To date, only 1 study has described the use of air associated with a dye in the preoperative marking of impalpable breast lesions (5). Injection of air, concomitantly used with the dye, improves the ultrasound identification of the lesions and can allow a better dissection of the tissues, causing less trauma and improving aesthetic results.…”

Objective:The goal of this study is to analyze the applicability of the patent blue dye and air in the preoperative marking of impalpable mammary lesions with indication of surgical resection. Materials and Methods:A prospective cohort study was performed. We selected 49 patients with detection of impalpable lesions on a breast mammography or breast ultrasonography. The patients received the dye injection as close to their surgery time as possible. The criteria analyzed included: 1) complete marking and identification of the lesion; 2) complete removal of the lesion; 3) in cases of malignant lesions, presence of free margins for successful surgery; 4) occurrence of allergic events; 5) necessity of reoperation; and 6) difficulty in locating lesions.Results: All lesions were marked, and they were successfully excised. In cases of malignancy, free margins were obtained in 100% of the cases. There were no allergic events or reoperations. Only 8.9% of the lesions were difficult to locate. Conclusion:The marking with patent blue and air is an effective alternative for the labeling of impalpable breast lesions, and it has satisfactory surgical oncology results. All lesions were resected, 91.1% of them were performed with no difficulties, and free margins were obtained in 100% of cases of malignancy.

“…The incision is made on the puncture site, making the procedure invasive and traumatic. 2 It can create unacceptable scarring on the breast. Lastly, the wound interferes with possible subsequent oncoplastic surgery.…”

Laparoscopic Nissen fundoplication involves retraction of the gastro-oesophageal junction using a Penrose drain to create a retro-oesophageal window. 1 We describe a latex-free alternative to the Penrose drain for patients with latex allergy. A size 8 or larger latex-free glove is fashioned into a sling, by cutting away all but the index and middle-finger portions (Fig 1). The bridge between these fingers, which normally covers the surgeon's interdigital space, forms the sling apex. This is passed around the distal oesophagus exactly as a Penrose drain and offers a safe, quick, and cost-effective latex-free alternative (Fig 2).
