Abstract

Urological malignancies, represented mainly by prostate, bladder, and renal cancers, are some of the leading causes of cancer-related mortalities worldwide. Despite various efforts over decades to develop early detection tests and effective therapeutic paradigms, the response rate to the existing treatments remains low for both primary and late stage/recurrent phases of these cancers. The evolving landscape of molecular diagnostics, aiming to make the diagnosis and treatment more patient-driven, underpins precision oncology and particularly intends to rationally profile individual tumors and highlight the mechanistic insight and complexity of tumor microenvironment in order to develop biomarkers of toxicity risks and response prediction in a clinically oriented dynamical setting. The present review is an effort to capture some of the recent developments in the area of molecular diagnostics and functional testing platforms and their potential application in clinical decision making in the premises of precision oncology of urological malignancies.

S3-Leitlinie „Diagnostik und Therapie des Karpaltunnelsyndroms“

Karpaltunnelsyndrom BDC Leitlinien Webinare
CME: 2 Punkte

Das Karpaltunnelsyndrom ist die häufigste Kompressionsneuropathie peripherer Nerven. Obwohl die Anamnese mit dem nächtlichen Einschlafen der Hand (Brachialgia parästhetica nocturna) sehr typisch ist, ist eine klinisch-neurologische Untersuchung und Elektroneurografie in manchen Fällen auch eine Neurosonografie erforderlich. Im Anfangsstadium sind konservative Maßnahmen (Handgelenksschiene, Ergotherapie) empfehlenswert. Bei nicht Ansprechen der konservativen Therapie oder Auftreten von neurologischen Ausfällen ist eine Dekompression des N. medianus am Karpaltunnel indiziert.

S2e-Leitlinie „Distale Radiusfraktur“

Radiusfraktur BDC Leitlinien Webinare
CME: 2 Punkte

Das Webinar beschäftigt sich mit Fragen und Antworten zu Diagnostik und Klassifikation sowie Möglichkeiten des Ausschlusses von Zusatzverletzungen. Die Referenten erläutern, welche Frakturen konservativ behandelt werden können und wie. Das Webinar beantwortet die Frage nach aktuellen operativen Therapiekonzepten: Welcher Zugang, welches Osteosynthesematerial? Auf was muss bei der Nachbehandlung der distalen Radiusfraktur geachtet werden?
