Is utilization of Multiple I-125 Radioactive Seeds in the Same Breast Safe and Feasible : A Multi-institutional Experience?
The use of multiple radioactive seeds for localizing multiple lesions in the same breast or bracketing lesions is feasible and safe. Because of the extent of disease, a substantial percentage of these patients require margin reexcision or conversion to mastectomy.
The study seems to show no significant anatomical or functional difference among the three different types of neobladders. A possible correlation between the position of the neobladder and urinary incontinence is suggested, recognizing further study in a larger population is required.
