RESUMO
The Brazilian Society of Surgical Oncology organized a group of oncological surgeons to discuss surgical aspects associated with locally advanced breast carcinoma. This article reviews the indications, different surgeries (thoracoabdominal or myocutaneous flaps), and associated complications. It discusses special conditions such as invasion of the chest wall and interscapular thoracic disarticulation. It makes recommendations based on the literature regarding clinical findings, tumor conditions, response to neoadjuvant therapy, choice of flaps in surgery, and tumor biology.

BACKGROUND: Risk-reducing operations are an important part of the management of hereditary predisposition to cancer. In selected cases, they can considerably reduce the morbidity and mortality associated with cancer in this population. OBJECTIVES: The Brazilian Society of Surgical Oncology (BSSO) developed this guideline to establish national benchmarks for cancer risk-reducing operations. METHODS: The guideline was prepared from May to December 2021 by a multidisciplinary team of experts to discuss the surgical management of cancer predisposition syndromes. Eleven questions were defined and assigned to expert groups that reviewed the literature and drafted preliminary recommendations. Following a review by the coordinators and a second review by all participants, the groups made final adjustments, classified the level of evidence, and voted on the recommendations. RESULTS: For all questions including risk-reducing colectomy, gastrectomy, and thyroidectomy, a major agreement was achieved by the participants, always using accessible alternatives. CONCLUSION: This and its accompanying article represent the first guideline in cancer risk reduction surgery developed by the BSSO and it should serve as an important reference for the management of families with cancer predisposition.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of multiparametric evaluation of breast lesions combining information of dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI), diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI), and F-fluoro-deoxi-glucose (F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET-CT). After approval of the institutional research ethics committee, 31 patients with suspicious breast lesions on MRI performed F-FDG PET-CT with a specific protocol for breast evaluation. Patients' mean age was 47.8 years (range, 29-77 years). Positron emission tomography and magnetic resonance imaging (PET-MRI) images were fused. A lesion was considered positive on multiparametric evaluation if at least 1 of the following was present: washout/type 3 kinetic curve on DCE-MRI, restricted diffusion on DWI with minimum apparent diffusion coefficient value <1.00 × 10 mm/s, and abnormal metabolism on F-FDG PET-CT (higher than the physiologic uptake of the normal breast parenchyma). Thirty-eight lesions with histologic correlation were evaluated on the 31 included patients, being 32 mass lesions (84.2%), and 6 nonmass lesions (15.8%). Lesions' mean diameter was 31.1 mm (range, 8-94 mm). Multiparametric evaluation provided 100% sensitivity, 55.5% specificity, 87.9% positive predictive value, 100% negative predictive value, and 89.5% accuracy, with 29 true-positives results, 5 true-negatives, 4 false-positives, and no false-negative results. Multiparametric evaluation with PET-MRI functional data showed good diagnostic accuracy to differentiate benign from malignant breast lesions, reducing the number of unnecessary biopsies, without missing any diagnosis of cancer in our case series.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the impact of adding 18F-fluorine-2-deoxy-d-glucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) in the evaluation of suspicious breast lesions on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). METHODS: Sixty patients with suspicious breast lesions on MRI were selected to perform a PET-CT in prone position, dedicated to the evaluation of the breasts. The areas with increased 18F-FDG concentration relative to normal parenchyma were considered positive on PET-CT. Fusion of PET and MRI images (PET-MRI) was performed on a dedicated workstation to better locate corresponding lesions, and its findings were compared with histological results. RESULTS: 76 lesions were evaluated, including 64 mass lesions (84.2%) and 12 non-mass lesions (15.8%). Lesions' mean diameter on MRI was 29.6 ± 19.2 mm (range 6-94 mm). PET-CT showed increased metabolically activity on 57 lesions (75.0%), with mean maximum SUV of 5.7 ± 5.0 (range 0.8-23.1). On histopathology, there were 17 (22.4%) benign and 59 (79.7%) malignant lesions. Considering all lesions, PET-MRI fusion provided 89.8% sensitivity, 76.5% specificity and 86.8% accuracy. Considering only mass lesions higher than 10mm, PET-MRI fusion provided 95.8% sensitivity, 83.3% specificity and 93.3% accuracy. CONCLUSION: The inclusion of 18F-FDG PET on the evaluation of suspicious breast lesions on MRI helped to differentiate benign from malignant breast lesions, especially for mass lesions with a diameter higher than 10 mm.
