Radical prostatectomy is the preferred treatment for patients with clinically localized prostate cancer and is typically performed using a robotic approach. Surgical techniques that preserve the neurovascular bundle minimize the risk of incontinence and erectile dysfunction post-operatively. Umbilical cord tissue is a relatively new technique, which has been shown to reduce inflammation and promote regenerative healing. In this video we show a robotic radical prostatectomy with bilateral nerve sparing technique utilizing a cryopreserved umbilical cord allograft nerve wrap.

Introduction:
Multiple Myeloma (MM), a plasma cell neoplasm that resides in the bone marrow’s intramedullary space.
Extramedullary disease (EMD) occurs when plasma cells extend through the bone cortex or via hematogenous spread to different organs.
This case of EMD of MM didn’t respond to the first line RVD regimen per NCCN guidelines which includes Lenalidomide (Revlimid), Bortezomib (Velcade), and Dexamethasone (Decadron). Therefore, new combination chemotherapy including Daratumumab, and Carfilzomib was initiated with excellent response.
Case description:
62-year-old female presenting to the oncologist for progressive right hip pain for 4 weeks. Initial hip x-ray and bone scan suspected malignancy. MRI showed …

Introduction: Ewings-like sarcoma is a rare subgroup of small round cell sarcoma with immunohistochemistry and morphological similarities to Ewing Sarcoma. We report a rare case of renal pelvis invasive urothelial carcinoma with small round cell sarcoma differentiation showing EWSR1 gene rearrangement. Case: An 84-year-old male presented with 6 months of intermittent painless gross hematuria. Workup revealed a 5.4cm left renal pelvicalyceal mass suspicious for transitional cell carcinoma and a 2.5cm enhancing left renal cortical lesion. The patient underwent an uncomplicated robotic left nephroureterectomy. Pathology revealed small round cell sarcoma composing greater than 80% of the renal pelvis tumor with the …

With a worldwide prevalence of 3-4 per million, Lambert-Eaton syndrome is a rare entity. It often occurs as a paraneoplastic syndrome, most commonly associated with small cell lung cancer. Less frequently, it occurs as an autoimmune disease in the absence of cancer. Both entities demonstrate circulating immunoglobulins against presynaptic voltage-gated calcium channels and Electromyogram (EMG) with an increase in compound muscle action potential on repetitive stimulation. A 35-year-old female with past medical history of hypothyroidism presented with bilateral lower extremity weakness, generalized fatigue, blurry vision, and slurred speech in 2010. Upon further workup, Lambert-Eaton syndrome was diagnosed after she tested …

Conference Presentation Abstracts
Improved survival rates of pediatric oncology patients give them the opportunity to return to school. This can present a significant challenge, as returning students often become vulnerable to peer rejection. The objective of this double-arm descriptive study was to establish a framework from which to optimize a school reintegration intervention for the peers of pediatric oncology patients. Ultimately, the study aimed to promote increased knowledge, acceptance by peers, and a smooth transition back to school for childhood cancer survivors. We utilized age-appropriate surveys to evaluate the knowledge and concerns of 3rd to 8th-grade students in Michigan regarding friends with cancer …

Conference Presentation Abstracts
Radiation therapy is one of the main cancer treatments that uses radiation to kill cancer cells. Proton therapy, or proton radiotherapy, is a type of particle therapy that uses a beam of protons to irradiate tumor volume. Beaumont proton therapy center research group invented the first robust and delivery-efficient spot-scanning proton arc (SPArc) therapy in 2016. Based on our beam modeling platform, we have found that the spot switching time (SSWT) is proportional to spot numbers. We aim to develop a direct mathematical optimization method to reduce the spot numbers for SPArc based on an independent optimization method to reduce …
