The most important local and regional treatment techniques on hepatocellular carcinoma and their effect over a long term overall survival
No full textDuring the last years, many local and regional techniques have been introduced, helping,
together with surgery, to treat the hepatocellular carcinoma, and contributing to an
important improvement of disease free survival and overall survival of patients affected by
this disease. These techniques, suitable also for metastatic lesions, can be performed as
exclusive ones or following surgery, and help controlling tumor progression even when it is
over any possible surgical approach.
Local and regional therapies can be divided into two groups: in the first one we can consider
the techniques using heat to obtain their effect, in the second one we consider those using
chemotherapic drugs to obtain necrosis of the neoplastic tissue. Necrosis can be obtained
through the energy produced by radiofrequency probes, through the alcohol or acetic acid
injection or through the injection of embolyzing substances, also together with
chemotherapic drugs, into the hepatic artery. Last but not least, the injection of yttrium
labeled microspheres is available. These are injected into the hepatic artery and are able to
cytoreduce the tumor through a local irradiation

»It contained harbours that pleased me like sonnets«. Kleine Poetik der diegetischen Karte
No full textIn this article, Federico Italiano explores the relationship between literature and cartography. Beginning with Stevenson’s Treasure Island, the author frames the topic through a general theoretical lens on the spatial dimension of literary texts. He then focuses on a specific phenomenon of literary "carticity"—the diegetic presence of the map, that is, the map as an integral element of the narrative structure. Among others, Italiano examines the works of Houellebecq and Cormac McCarthy

Aneddoti e ricette a corte di Federico II nel XXI secolo : il buon cibo e il buon bere nel più antico Ateneo pubblico al mondo
Get PDF[Italiano]: Questo volume rappresenta la finalizzazione di una iniziativa nata, condivisa ed interamente realizzata all'interno del gruppo social dei "Prof in cucina e in Cantina", che ha inteso raccogliere ricette e descrizioni aneddotiche di singoli Autori, appartenenti ai ruoli del personale docente e tecnico-amministrativo-bibliotecario dell'Ateneo federiciano, il più antico Ateneo pubblico al mondo. Aneddoti e ricette forniscono spaccati di vita quotidiana e ricostruzioni di eventi che hanno accompagnato gli Autori nei diversi percorsi formativi, sociali e lavorativi, e che non escludono riferimenti al recente periodo emergenziale della pandemia COVID-19. Ad introdurre il Volume è un menù federiciano, con una proposta di 3 pietanze che attualizzano ricette ed abitubini alimentari dell'epoca, e che hanno come riferimento il Liber de coquina, edito a corte di Federico II. Gli 8 Capitoli del volume raggruppano ricette e aneddoti per categorie, e ciascuno di essi è poi preceduto da un breve inserto con ulteriori riferimenti storici all'alimentazione a Corte di Federico II. Così, atmosfere vecchie e nuove, accompagnate dal sentore di aromi e da suggestioni ispirate al vissuto di ciascun Autore, si fondono per offrire a Lettrici e Lettori frammenti di quotidianità vissuti oggi a corte di Federico II, nel XXI secolo./[English]: The Volume represents the endpoint of a recent initiative, which was conceived, shared and fully realized within the social group of the "Prof in Cucina e in Cantina". Here, the several Authors, represented by the teaching and the technical/administrative/librarian staff of the Federico II University in Naples, the oldest public University in the world, propose recipes and anecdotal descriptions of their educational, social and work-related paths, including some episodes from the recent COVID-19 pandemic. A menu inspired to Frederick II introduces the book, with 3 recipes inspired to the Liber de coquina, a cooking manual compiled at the Emperor's court. Each of the following 8 thematic chapters of the book is also anticipated by a brief insert reporting historical reconstructions of the alimentary habits at the court of Frederick II. Thus, old and new atmospheres, accompanied by the scent of aromas and suggestions inspired by the experience of each Author, come together to offer Readers fragments of everyday life at the court of Frederick II, in the 21st century
Oncoplastic surgery and cancer relapse: cosmetic and oncological results in 489 patients
No full textDuring the past 20 years, breast conservation has become the preferred treatment modality for breast carcinoma, and in recent times there is an increased expectation from breast cancer patients to retain their "normal breast appearance". For large tumor-to-breast ratio excision, the subspecialty of oncoplastic surgery is born, helping to achieve a good oncologic and esthetic result. In our study we have considered 767 patients undergone a mastectomy or quadrantectomy, and especially 489 undergone quadrantectomy. We have used our protocol for breast reshaping and analyzed our data in terms of oncologic safety and esthetic results. Considering the lesions, they were placed like this: 214 (44%) in the SEQ, 58 lesions (12%) in the SIQ, 54 lesions (11%) in the IEQ, 24 lesions (5%) in the IIQ, 45 lesions (9%) respectively in the CQ and between the SQ, 39 lesions (8%) between the EQ, 5 lesions (1%) respectively between the internal quadrants and between the inferior quadrants. We have chosen simple breast reshapings in case of operations on the superior quadrants, while, in case of operations on the inferior quadrants, we have chosen complex techniques, like reshapings according to a "key hole" reductive mammaplasty, which requires also a contralateral reshaping. We have done simple and monolateral reshapings respectively in 372 (76%) and 296 (60.5%) cases. We have had early complications in 98 (20%) cases: 12 infections (2.4%), 10 hematomas (2%), 11 seromas (2.2%), 65 liponecrosis. As late complications, we have found scar retractions and minus areas in 20 cases (4.08%), while we have found asymmetries and bigger deformities in 34 cases (6.95%). We have not found any cancer relapse after one year of follow up, while we have had 3 cases of relapse (0.6%) after 5 years of follow up, respectively after 5, 4 and 2 years. This result has to be attributed to our preoperatory project of surgery derived from many factors, among which stands out the MRI done in all the cases. We think that an immediate breast reshaping following quadrantectomy is the best esthetic and psychologic option for breast cancer patients
Federico De Roberto, «L’imperio»
No full textIl breve saggio analizza l'incipit dell'Imperio di Federico De Roberto mettendo a fuoco come l'Autore riesca a dare una rappresentazione teatrale del parlamento e, con ciò, a desacralizzarne la funzione politica e a ridicolizzarne i principali attori: i parlamentari. Questo incipit è ovviamente funzionale alla successiva narrazione della progressiva delusione politica di Ranaldi.The short essay examines the incipit of "L'imperio" by Federico De Roberto focusing on how the author manages to give a theatrical performance of the parliament and, thereby, to desecration and ridiculing the political function of the main actors: the parliamentarians.

Il 'Vocabolario ornitologico napolitano-italiano' (1874) e il 'Vocabolario botanico napolitano' (1887) di Federico Gusumpaur
No full textThe paper analyses two bilingual (Neapolitan-Italian) sectoral repertoires by Federico Gusumpaur: the Vocabolario ornitologico napolitano-italiano (1874) and the Vocabolario botanico napolitano (1887). After some remarks on the author, whose basic biographical data are unknown, I will describe the main characteristics of the two repertoires: the criteria used, the glossing system, the probable sources, and the destination. I will also focus on the differences between the two vocabularies, which consist in the presence of two alphabetical indices (Latin-Neapolitan and Italian-Neapolitan) in the Vocabolario botanico napolitano and the non-merely local destination of this second repertoire.Il contributo si concentra su due repertori settoriali bilingui (napoletano-italiano) redatti da Federico Gusumpaur: il Vocabolario ornitologico napolitano-italiano (1874) e il Vocabolario botanico napolitano (1887). Dopo alcuni cenni sull’autore, del quale non sono noti i dati biografici fondamentali, si presentano le caratteristiche principali dei due repertori: i criteri adottati, il sistema di glossatura, le probabili fonti, la destinazione. Si mettono inoltre a fuoco le differenze tra i due vocabolari, che consistono nella presenza di due indici alfabetici (latino-napoletano e italiano-napoletano) nel Vocabolario botanico napolitano e nella destinazione non solo locale di questo secondo repertorio
