The purpose of this clinical study is to investigate surgical usability, patient-reported outcomes and effectiveness of the MaMaLoc technique and compare it with WGL.
The study aim is to decrease the number of breast cancer patients receiving overtreatment of the axilla, in order to positively influence the axillary morbidity rate and quality of life. Therefore, we investigate whether completion axillary…
The aim of this study is to identify Galectin-1 and -3 as possible biomarkers in capsular contracture. Moreover, we plan to investigate whether HLA-typing and IgE levels in subjects can be used to predict the chance of development of capsular…
Up front breast surgery in patients with primary distant metastatic breast cancer, will result in an improvement of the 2-year survival compared to the survival achieved with systemic therapy and delayed local treatment or systemic therapy alone.The…
We want to investigate wether a para-vertebral block contributes to a reduced postoperative pain and morphine consumption in patients with breast cancer after a unilateral mastectomy or lumpectomy. By doing this investigation we hope to clarify,…
The objective of the study is to determine the clinical relevance of sparing the lymfdrainage of the upper extremitiy by using the ARM-procedure in patients with breast cancer. The purpose of the continuation of the feasibility study is to create a…
We want to answer the following research questions using a peri-operative infusion of lidocaine (PIL) protocol:1. Does low dose peri-operative intravenously administered lidocaine attenuate systemic inflammatory response measured by plasma cytokine…
A novel one-stage procedure where definitive implants are combined with a collagen matrix is compared to the traditional two-staged procedure where a tissue expander is placed before an implant. Our hypotheses are the following:The use of a collagen…
We hypothesized that obliteration of the dead space following mastectomy would significantly reduce seroma formation and therefore seroma related wound complications and patient discomfort (fewer seroma aspirations and fewer check ups in the out…
The aim of this study is to compare clinical outcomes and cost-effectiveness of two procedures for skin sparing mastectomy with implant reconstruction in a randomized clinical trial. The customary method for one-stage breast reconstruction with…
To reduce the extent of healthy breast tissue resection by US-guided surgery for palpable tumours compared to traditional palpation-guided surgery, without compromising oncological principles. To improve cosmetic outcomes and quality of life by US-…
The objective of this study is to determine the accuracy of the sentinel lymph node biopsy in multicentric breast cancer prospectively and multi-institutional.
To investigate that in mamma surgery, regional infiltration with ropivacaine 0,75% added to general anaesthesia causes less postoperative pain, nausea and vomiting compared to general anaesthesia alone.
To evaluate the efficacy of ROLL versus WGL in breast conserving surgery for non-palpable breast cancer.
The aim of this study is to objectify nipple-areola complex sensitivity in women who underwent unilateral or bilateral prophylactic NSM in Erasmus MC-Daniel den Hoed Cancer Center and their satisfaction with this operation, compared to healthy women…

Primary objective is to investigate whether palliative pleurectomy / decortication after 4-6 courses of standard chemotherapy with cisplatin and pemetrexed will lead to a doubling of the overall survival compared to a control group which will…
Riskreduction of developing breast carcinoma by means of better surgical techniques (removing all normal breast tissue).
Interactive provision of information with the use of web-based applications should increase patient satisfaction, which is an important performance factor. This information should be consistent and clear for the patient. Patient satisfaction is…
To test the hypothesis stated above, we propose to study the dose-response relationship between various chemostimulants and PMN functions of major trauma patients and patients undergoing major surgery in vitro, both early after the initial trauma or…
