  Completion total thyroidectomy with radioactive iodine (RAI) therapy is not uniformly recommended for minimally invasive follicular thyroid carcinomas (MI-FTCs) without distant metastasis, but may be considered for cases with a risk factor of recurrence, such as age ≥ 45years.
 
  The present study aimed to investigate the outcomes for patients with MI-FTC using a stratification age of 55years.
 
  The records of 478 patients with MI-FTC confirmed by surgical specimens at Ito Hospital from January 2005 to December 2014 were retrospectively reviewed. Twenty patients had distant metastasis at diagnosis and were subsequently classified as M1.
 
  Among the 478 patients with MI-FTC, univariate analysis identified that age ≥ 55years (p = 0.002) and M1 (p < 0.001) were related to cause-specific survival. In 458 patients with M0 MI-FTC, male sex (p = 0.041), age ≥ 55years (p = 0.001), and tumor size > 40mm (p < 0.001) were related to poor disease-free survival (DFS) in univariate analysis. Multivariate analysis showed that age ≥ 55years (p = 0.005) and tumor size > 40mm (p = 0.005) were independent prognostic factors for DFS. The 10-year DFS rates of patients aged < 45years, 45years ≤ age < 55years, and ≥ 55years were 97.0%, 95.5%, and 86.4%, respectively.
 
  The change in the recommended age for completion total thyroidectomy with RAI, from 45 to 55years, seemed reasonable.

  On October 5, 2018, a meeting of the Spanish Society of Radiation Oncology (SEOR) Brachytherapy Group was held, in collaboration with the SpanishSociety of Medical Physics (SEFM), with the aim of preparing a consensus document on postoperative vaginal-cuff brachytherapy (VCBT).
 
  A survey including 42 questions was sent to Spanish Radiation Oncology Centres before the meeting. The survey items included experience in VCBT, technique indications, previous patient preparation, applicator type, implant procedure, computerized tomography (CT) simulation, definition of target volumes and organs at risk (OAR), dose prescription, fractionation, treatment planning, dosimetric parameters and constraints to OAR. Thirty-three centres answered the survey. Statistical analysis of the survey considered that there was consensus when there was ≥ 85% of agreement related to a survey item, otherwise an item with < 85% of agreement would be discussed during the meeting to reach consensus.
 
  The results of the survey are repFM was elaborated.

It has often presented with immunosuppression and especially with HIV-Infection. In the HAART-era, eosinophilic pustular folliculitis has become a rarity. It is often being misdiagnosed as acne vulgaris, rosacea, bacterial folliculitis, dermatomycosis and seborrheic dermatitis. The treatment of this disease may be difficult.
  This study aimed to determine the optimal surgical procedure for arch aneurysm in the elderly based on preoperative comorbidities, especially focusing on renal function.
 
  The medical records of 374 patients who experienced arch surgery between 2008 and 2019 were reviewed. Among the 374 patients, 92 who underwent total arch replacement (TAR) were assigned to the TAR group and the remaining 152 who underwent debranching thoracic endovascular aortic repair (DTEVAR) were assigned to the DTEVAR group.
 
  Chronic kidney disease (CKD) was an independent risk factor of mortality (hazard ratio, 2.85; p = 0.029) in the TAR group but not in the DTEVAR. In the Grade I/II category CKD (estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) > 60mL/min), freedom from all-cause mortality was significantly higher in the TAR group than in the DTEVAR group (p = 0.0155, log-rank). Freedom from all-cause mortality was comparable between the two groups in the Grade IIIa CKD (eGFR, 45-60) (p = 0.584, log-lank), Grade IIIb (eGFR, 30-45) (p = 0.822), and Grade IV/V (eGFR < 30) (p = 0.548).
 
  In elderly patients who underwent TAR, CKD was the independent risk factor of the mortality, but not in the patients who underwent debranching TEVAR. Conversion of surgical strategy from TAR to debranching TEVAR in the treatment of aortic arch aneurysms in the elderly with CKD below Grade IIIa is acceptable considering that less-invasiveness. While, in the elderly with Grade I/II CKD, TAR still remains as a primary choice for the arch repair for better mid-term survival.

We successfully incorporated thoracoscopic esophagectomy into this procedure for a 43-year-old man with an aortoesophageal fistula. After detaching the esophagus from the adjacent tissue, and leaving just the fistula in the right thoracoscopic procedure, we performed an open aortic graft replacement. Subsequently, we created an omental pedicle graft and wrapped it over the graft. Through this thoracoscopy-thoracostomy approach, minimal destruction of the right thoracic wall was achieved and the successful dissection of the diseased esophagus could be carried out while reducing the amount of bleeding during anticoagulation for cardiopulmonary bypass, and the field of view for the aortic replacement was not disturbed during left thoracotomy. Four months later, we reconstructed the esophagus by a pedunculated small intestinal graft through the ante-thoracic route.
