When asymmetry becomes “giant”: A Rare Case of Juvenile Fibroadenoma
Miranda, Carlota; Ferreira, Mónica; Carvalho, Sandra; Sampaio, Clara; Nunes, Susana; Morujão, Inês; Morgado, Carolina; Vitorino, CarlosJuvenile fibroadenoma account for approximately 4% of all fibroadenomas, and giant juvenile fibroadenomas are extremely rare, with an incidence of 0.5%. Fibroadenomas can reach large sizes, and surgical intervention poses an aesthetic challenge, particularly in developing breasts. We report the case of a 13-year-old girl who presented with rapid enlargement of the left breast. Physical examination revealed a lo...
Breast Adipose Tissue's Xenobiotics and Fatty Acid Profile-A Preliminary Study ...
Sousa, Sara; Paíga, Paula; Araújo, Bárbara; Coelho, Francisca; Castela, Inês; Vasques, Miguel; Sampaio, Clara; Duarte, Marta; Correia, AnaCountless environmental pollutants and xenobiotics, are widespread and linked to hazardous effects, including breast cancer. Due to their lipophilic properties, these accumulate in fat tissue, such as breast adipose tissue. However, little is still known about their combined effects and distribution within the breast microenvironment. Alterations in fatty acid metabolism can be a biomarker for cancer progressio...

Partial splenectomy in blunt abdominal trauma
Sampaio, Clara; Aniceto, João; Moniz, Luis; Oliveira Martins, FranciscoThe spleen is the most commonly injured intra-abdominal organ in blunt trauma1. The diagnosis of splenic trauma can be delayed because 40% of patients can be asymptomatic in the initial evaluation. We present two cases of a 32 and 39-year-old women with a Grade IV splenic lesion for a blunt abdominal trauma. A partial splenectomy was performed in both cases.; O baço é o órgão intra-abdominal mais frequentemente...
VARICOSE VEINS SURGERY OF LOWER LIMBS CAN WE PRESERVE GREAT SAPHENOUS VEIN?
Alves, Carlos Pereira; Neves, José; Pinheiro, Vasco; Moniz, Luis; Toscano, Francisco; Figueiredo, Joana; Matias, Rosa; Sampaio, Clara; Marques, A.Introdução: A avaliação por eco-Doppler mostrou a grande veia safena como uma veia interfascial e não superficial. O Eco-Doppler mostrou também veias varicosas com junção safeno femoral competente, bem como veias varicosas que envolvem somente veias colaterais ou veias colaterais mais segmentos da grande veia safena. Consequentemente foram definidos dois padrões principais de refluxo venoso: o refluxo axial com...
