First line therapy for Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) is 7+3 regimen. It often cannot be used in elderly patients due to intensity. Venetoclax + hypomethylating agent (HMA) is approved for AML treatment in these patients. We investigate the efficacy of this treatment in a community setting where patients do not have the same resources available to them as a large academic center. Primary outcome was survival of patients greater than 60 years of age with a diagnosis of AML who received 7+3 therapy versus those who received venetoclax + HMA. Secondary outcomes included characteristics of those who received the two …

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 …

BACKGROUND: Molecular subtype in invasive breast cancer guides systemic therapy. It is unknown whether molecular subtype should also be considered to tailor surgical therapy. The present investigation was designed to evaluate whether breast cancer subtype impacted surgical margins in patients with invasive breast cancer stage I through III undergoing breast-conserving therapy.
METHODS: Data from 2 randomized trials evaluating cavity shave margins (CSM) on margin status in patients undergoing partial mastectomy (PM) were used for this analysis. Patients were included if invasive carcinoma was present in the PM specimen and data for all 3 receptors (ER, PR, and HER2) were known. …
