Computerized Cognitive Retraining in Improving Cognitive Function in Breast Cancer Survivors
Cancer SurvivorStage 0 Breast Cancer7 moreThis randomized clinical trial studies computerized cognitive retraining in improving cognitive function in breast cancer survivors. Cancer-related cognitive deficits, such as thinking and memory issues, are common among breast cancer survivors. The severity of these cognitive deficits is associated with a significant negative impact on daily function and quality of life. A computerized cognitive retraining method may help researchers find ways to improve cognitive function and quality of life in breast cancer survivors.
Stereotactic Image-Guided Navigation During Breast Reconstruction in Patients With Breast Cancer...
Ductal Breast Carcinoma in SituLobular Breast Carcinoma in Situ8 moreMany hospitals, including the Ohio State University Medical Center, will take pictures of the blood vessels in a patient's abdomen before they decide to perform a breast reconstruction using the patient's own tissue. These pictures are called computed tomography (CT) angiograms and are like a map of each patient's anatomy. However, no study has been reported that determined how accurate these pictures are at showing the surgeon where all of the blood vessels were located. This study will try to determine if these pictures are missing any blood vessels that are found during surgery and if the pictures show the correct location of the vessels
KeraStat Skin Therapy in Treating Radiation Dermatitis in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Stage 0-IIIA...
Ductal Breast Carcinoma in SituSkin Reactions Secondary to Radiation Therapy5 moreThis pilot clinical trial studies KeraStat Skin Therapy in treating radiation dermatitis in patients with newly diagnosed stage 0-IIIA breast cancer. Radiation dermatitis is an itchy, painful skin rash that can occur following treatment with radiation. KeraStat Skin Therapy may be a better treatment for radiation dermatitis.
Molecular Genetic Basis of Invasive Breast Cancer Risk Associated With Lobular Carcinoma in Situ...
Breast CancerLobular Carcinoma1 moreThis study is being done in order to better understand the biology of an abnormal lesion found in breast tissue called "lobular carcinoma in situ" (LCIS). We are interested in studying LCIS. The LCIS is not a cancer itself, but is a marker for an increased risk of cancer. We would like to look for LCIS in breast tissue removed during surgery from patients with cancer or at high risk for cancer. If LCIS is found, we will search for genes that are expressed (turned on or off) differently than in normal breast tissue. The identification of such genes would help us better understand the biology of LCIS, and its possible relationship to breast cancer.
Immediate Breast Reconstruction With Acellular Dermal Matrix
Breast CancerBreast Carcinoma in Situ2 moreThe aim of this study is to contribute to the knowledge regarding immediate implant-based BR by investigating whether the one-stage technique with ADM is superior to the two-stage expander to implant technique. Primary endpoint in first publication is postoperative complications, secondary endpoint is patient and investigator assessed aesthetic outcome. Primary endpoint in second publication is cost, secondary endpoint is patient reported outcome measures.
Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Assessing Affect Reactivity and Regulation in Patients...
Healthy SubjectStage 0 Breast Cancer7 moreThe investigators hope to gain a better understanding of the influence of affect reactivity and regulation on the decision of newly diagnosed breast cancer patients to choose bilateral mastectomy. The information gained can help develop an intervention to enable management of cancer-related anxiety by non-surgical means.
Genetics of Women With Lobular Carcinoma in Situ of the Breast
Breast CancerRATIONALE: Gathering information about genetic changes in patients with lobular carcinoma in situ of the breast may help doctors learn more about the disease and find better methods of treatment. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying the genetics of women with lobular carcinoma in situ of the breast.
Suction Drain Versus the Use of Adaptive Skin Sutures After Mastectomy ± Axillary Lymphadenectomy;...
in Situ Breast CancerInvasive Breast CancerThe objective of this prospective randomized study is to perform qualitative and quantitative comparisons between the insertion of traditional suction drains (Arm: Suction drain) versus the application of absorbable adaptive sutures (Arm: Adaptive suture) following simplex mastectomy or modified radical mastectomy in the light of the total volume of withdrawn serum from wound cavity, the extent of early postoperative analgesic requirements and quality of life.
