1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a tile support insert for use in modular flooring assemblies such as those used for athletic play areas. More particularly, the present invention is related to a tile support insert used in modular flooring assemblies which improves the ability of the tiles of the flooring assembly to handle large, localized point loads without damaging the tiles.
2. State of the Art
Numerous types of floorings have been used to create playing areas for sports, such as basketball, roller hockey and tennis, as well as for other purposes. Common flooring assemblies include a wide range of materials, such as concrete, asphalt, wood and other materials. For each type of flooring, there are corresponding advantages and disadvantages. For example, concrete and asphalt floorings are easy to construct and provides long term wear. However, concrete and asphalt floors provide no "give" during use and many people are injured each year during sporting events due to falls and other mishaps.
In contrast, there are flooring assemblies, such as wood which have an appropriate amount of give to avoid such injuries. It is for this reason that such floorings are used for basketball courts and the like. The wood floors, however, are expensive to install and require continued maintenance to keep them in good condition.
Due to these concerns, the use of modular flooring assemblies made of synthetic materials has grown in popularity. The synthetic floors are advantageous for several reasons. A first reason for the flooring assemblies' popularity is that they are typically formed of materials which are generally inexpensive and lightweight. If a tile is damaged it may easily be replaced. If the flooring needs to be temporarily removed, the individual tiles making up the floor can easily be detached, relocated, and then reattached to form a new floor in another location. Examples of modular flooring assemblies include U.S. Pat. Nos. Des. 274,588; 3,438,312; 3,909,996; 4,436,799; 4,008,548; 4,167,599; 4,226,064 and 255,744.
A second reason for the popularity of the flooring assemblies is that the durable plastics from which they are formed are long lasting. Unlike other long lasting alternatives, such as asphalt and concrete, the material is generally better at absorbing impacts, and there is less risk of injury if a person falls on the plastic material, as opposed to concrete or asphalt. The connections for the modular flooring assembly can even be specially engineered to absorb lateral force to avoid injuries, as is described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,930,286. Additionally, the flooring assemblies generally require little maintenance as compared to other flooring, such as wood.
One problem which has plagued the modular floor covering assemblies is that the tiles are generally unable to handle localized heavy loads without damage to the tile. This is especially true if the tile repeatedly is subjected to a heavy load in a localized spot or in repeated movement across the tile in one direction.
Referring now to FIG. 1A, there is shown a top view of a tile, generally indicated at 10 as is typically used in modular flooring surfaces. The tile 10 has an upper portion 14 which is formed by a plurality of intersecting cross members or ribs 16 with openings 18 disposed therebetween such that the cross members are arranged in a grid matrix. The upper portion 14 has an upper surface 20 which provides a primary support to foot, vehicle and other types of traffic.
Referring now to FIG. 1B, there is shown a cross-sectional view of the conventional tile 10 of the prior art. The upper portion 14 of the tile 10 is supported above a base surface, such as concrete, by a plurality of support legs 22 which extend downwardly from the upper portion 14. The support legs 22 thus form a lower portion, generally indicated at 26. Each of the support legs 22 has a contact face 22a at a bottom end thereof for resting on a subfloor, such as concrete. The lower portion 26 defines a generally open cavity within a perimeter 28 of the floor tile and between a lower surface 16a of the grid matrix and a contacting surface of the subfloor 30. The only portion of the tile 10 which extends through the cavity is the support legs 22.
The tile 10 shown is advantageous over other types of flooring, such as concrete and asphalt because it provides sufficient give to avoid many types of injury. Such tiles are advantageous over wood because they require little maintenance and are extremely durable. One disadvantage to such tiles, however, is that placement of a heavy load on a localized portion of the flooring surface 20 can overwhelm the ability of the support legs 22 at the location to support the tile 10. In such a case, it is common for the support legs 22 to buckle, bend or otherwise deform. Once deformed, the support leg 22 will always provide a weak spot within the tile 10 which interferes with the optimal performance of the tile. Additionally, if the load placed on a portion of the tile is too severe, it may even result in the ribs 16 cracking or deforming under the pressure.
Attempts to mitigate these concerns have achieved tiles, such as that shown in FIG. 2, in which the entire tile, generally indicated at 40, is made out of intersecting cross members or ribs 44. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that such tiles are often used outside. To ensure proper drainage, ports 48 must be placed in the ribs 44. The ports 48 inherently define support legs 52 in the lower portion of the ribs 44 at the point of intersection. While such an arrangement has been shown to be a significant improvement, the tile 40 can still suffer damage when heavy loads are placed thereon. The damage may be either deformation of the support legs 52, or of the ribs 44 above the ports 48.
Thus, there is a need for a flooring assembly which improves the ability of flooring tiles to withstand heavy loads without deforming or otherwise damaging the cross members or the support legs. Such an assembly should be lightweight, relatively inexpensive and made to work with flooring tiles of the prior art. Such an assembly should also be removable, and allow use with some tiles without affecting the overall look of a flooring assembly formed by joining numerous tiles.
Thus, it is an object of the present invention to provide a tile support which may be used with modular tile flooring assemblies to prevent damage to the tiles by heavy, localized loads.
It is another object of the present invention to provide such a tile support which may be used with existing tile flooring assemblies and which may be used without substantially changing the appearance of the flooring assembly.
It is another object of the present invention to provide such a tile support which is inexpensive to manufacture and easy to use.
It is still another object of the present invention to provide such a tile support which is removable from the flooring assembly and a surface on which the flooring assembly is placed so as to enable removal of the tile support when use of the support is not desired.
The above and other objects of the invention not specifically enumerated are realized in specific illustrated embodiments of a tile support including a support insert having a plurality of openings formed therein for receiving support legs of a conventional tile. The support insert will typically extend upwardly a sufficient distance to support the interconnecting cross members which form the grid matrix of the tile.
In accordance with one aspect of the invention, the support insert has a plurality of nubs which extend upwardly to fill the openings between the cross members of the grid matrix. The nubs are formed by providing a generally planar surface with a plurality of channels formed therein for receiving the cross members of the grid matrix. At the intersection of each channel, openings are formed for receiving the support legs which extend down at each intersection of the cross members of the tile.
In accordance with another aspect of the invention, the support insert extends upwardly only so far as to contact the lower surface of the cross members of the grid complex in order to provide support without filling the openings between the cross members.
In accordance with yet another aspect of the invention, the support inserts are made for each tile of the prior art and are formed as negative images of the tile so that nesting the tile insert into the cavity of the tile forms a generally continuous tile for whatever portion of the conventional tile is nested within the insert.
In accordance with another aspect of the present invention, the voids in the support insert extend through the support insert so that the support legs of a tile nested in the support structure extend to a position at least coextensive with a bottom surface of the support insert.
In accordance with still another aspect of the present invention, the support insert is formed so as to leave a small space between the tile and the support insert when the tile is placed in the support insert to thereby allow for give within the tile while simultaneously preventing damage by large, localized loads.
In use, a tile is selected having a known configuration for the grid matrix formed by the intersecting cross members and for the positions and size of the support legs which hold the grid matrix above a subfloor. The tile is then matched to a tile insert which has openings/voids for receiving the support legs. The tile insert is then nested into the cavity so that the support legs nest in the openings/voids. The tile insert is typically advanced until it contacts the grid matrix. The combined tile and tile insert are then placed in a floor assembly in the same manner as the tile would be if no insert were present. While, depending on the embodiment of the insert chosen, the conventional tile may be provided with a generally planar surface, the appearance of the tile is otherwise unaffected and the tile does not look out of place in the conventional flooring assembly, even if only some of the tiles are provided with support inserts. At the same time, the tiles with the insert provide a flooring assembly which is better able to handle heavy, localized loads.
Yet another aspect of the invention involves the use of an insert which is thicker than the tile which is supported, thereby holding the tile above the flooring surface. In such a manner, irregularities in the flooring surface may be filled by the insert to provide generally consistent support under the tile. Likewise, the flooring assembly can be raised by the insert to delineate boundaries or to provide other indications as to borders.
Still another aspect of the present invention involves the use of an insert sized to fill part of the tile to be supported. In such a manner, a particular area of a tile which is subjected to heavy loads may be supported, while excess insert is not used to support less burdened areas of the tile.
The above and other objects, features and advantages of the invention will become apparent from a consideration of the following detailed description presented in connection with the accompanying drawings in which:

Reference will now be made to the drawings in which the various elements of the present invention will be given numeral designations and in which the invention will be discussed so as to enable one skilled in the art to make and use the invention. It is to be understood that the following description is only exemplary of the principles of the present invention, and should not be viewed as narrowing the pending claims.
Referring to FIG. 3, there is shown a cross sectional view of the conventional tile 10 shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B. The tile 10 include the upper portion 14 which is formed by intersecting cross members or ribs 16, only one of which is shown due to the cross-sectional view. Extending downwardly from the cross members 16 into the cavity disposed therebelow are a plurality of support legs 22. To provide additional support to the tile 10, a support insert, generally indicated at 100, is nested into the cavity below the cross members 16 of the grid matrix.
The support insert 100 includes a core plate 104 which is configured for insertion within the open cavity. The core plate 104 has a top surface 108 (FIG. 3A) and a bottom surface 112. Due to the cross-section through the support legs 22, the core plate 104 appears to be noncontiguous in FIG. 3. However, in FIG. 3A, there is shown an alternate cross-sectional view which shows the generally contiguous nature of the core plate 104.
The core plate 104 has a plurality of openings or voids 116 into which the support legs 22 of the flooring tile 10 can rest. Openings or voids 116 are used because the portion which receives the support legs needs not extend all the way through the core plate, although such is believed to be a preferred embodiment. In the alternative to an opening, the void could extend down to a position adjacent the lower surface 112 of the core plate 104 without actually penetrating through the core plate.
The core plate 104, will is typically be made out of a rigid polymer material similar to that used for the tile 10. The material is preferably a substantially rigid polymer which is lightweight and provides a small amount of give both laterally and vertically.
As shown in FIG. 3A, the upper surface 108 of the core plate 104 extends up to approximately the same height as the surface 20 of the grid matrix as formed by the cross members 16. A plurality of channels 120 are formed in the upper surface 108 of the core plate 104 to divide the upper surface of the core plate into a plurality of nubs 130 which fit snugly within the openings 18 (FIG. 1A) between the cross members 16 of the grid matrix. It is presently believed that a preferred embodiment is for the channels 120 and openings 116 to be sufficiently small that the cross members 16 and support legs 22 of the tile 10 nest snugly therein. In other words, the outer circumference or dimensions of the support legs will be only slightly smaller than the inner circumference/dimensions of the openings 116. Likewise, the width of the channels 120 will be only slightly larger than that of the cross members. Thus, the core plate 104 adds lateral stability.
The embodiment shown in FIG. 3A is advantageous in that it essentially forms one contiguous tile. The tile 10 is better able to handle extreme weights such as, for example, an automobile being driven thereon. It will be appreciated that such an embodiment will typically only be used in areas which require tiles without give.
Referring now to FIG. 3B, there is shown a fragmented, plan view of the core plate 104 shown in FIG. 3A. Because the support legs 22 of the tiles 10 are generally disposed at the intersection of two cross members, the channels 120 which receive the cross members 16 run into the openings 116 which receive the support legs. The channels 120 define the nubs 130 which will slide into the openings 18 (FIG. 1A) in the tile 10 so as to form a tile which is substantially contiguous.
When the tile 10 is nested in the support insert 104, a superior tile is achieved for the purposes of withstanding heavy, localized loads. One significant advantage of the present invention is that an area of a modular flooring assembly may be protected while maintaining a consistent appearance along the traffic bearing surface 20 of the tiles 10. If, for example, a basketball court is formed from the tiles and large equipment is to be used filming those playing on the court, the core plates 104 can be disposed in the tiles 10 around the boarder of the court. By having the tiles about the boarder of the court supported, the equipment can be moved without damaging the tile and without disrupting the continuity of the appearance of the flooring surface. The only difference is that the tiles around the boarder will have a generally continuous surface. By using different color inserts, the boarder of the playing area can be emphasized. In the alternative, the nubs 130 could be made to extend only partially into the openings 18 (FIG. 1A) in the tile 10, thereby allowing a slight amount of give and providing a non-continuous surface 20 to the tile.
Referring now to FIG. 4, there is shown a cross-sectional view of an alternate embodiment of the present invention. The tile 10 is formed in a similar manner as the tile as shown in FIGS. 1A, 1B and 3A. The core plate 204 is different than that shown in FIG. 3-3B in that it does not extend up to the flooring surface 20. Rather, the upper surface 208 extends up to a lower end 16a of the cross members 16 which form the grid matrix. Thus, the tile 10 is substantially solid below the grid matrix when the support legs 22 (FIG. 3) are nested in the openings 116 (FIG. 3) of the core plate 204, thereby replacing the substantially open cavity of a conventional tiles which is interrupted only by the support legs. When pressure is placed on the tile, it is conveyed through the support legs 22 to a subfloor, not shown. When a large load is placed on the tile 10, the load will be carried not only by the support legs, but also by the core plate 204.
The core plate 204 provides a significant amount of support to the tile 10. However, unlike the embodiment shown in FIG. 3A, the tile is allowed to displace laterally because the lack of the nubs 130 (FIG. 3A) disposed between the cross members 16. Such a configuration will typically be used where the tile 10 is subjected to moderately heavy loads, but where some lateral and/or vertical movement is still desired. An example may be a playing surface which has moderately heavy equipment rolled on it occasionally. Lateral give is preserved for those using the surface for sports, but damage due to the equipment is avoided.
Referring now to FIG. 5, there is shown an alternate embodiment of the core plate, generally indicated at 304, nested in the tile 40. FIG. 5 is shown primarily to demonstrate that the core plate 304 can be molded to fit the variety of different configurations presently used in modular flooring assembly tiles. For virtually all of the configurations currently in use, a core plate 304 may be made by using one of the tiles as a mold and forming a negative or reverse image of at least the cavity of the tile 10. The core plate 304 can have arcuate sections, rectangular sections, or any other shape commonly used. If nubs, such as those indicated at 130 in FIG. 3A are not desired, the area between the cross members 16 can be filled with any suitable material for limiting the initial molded core plate to the depth desired. Of course, other fillers could be used to tailor the core plate 104, 204, or 304 to a particular purpose. For example, a filler could be formed so that the majority of material forming the core plate is disposed immediately around the openings 120, while an indentation is provided instead of the nubs 130 (FIGS. 3A-3B), thereby decreasing the overall weight of the core plate while still providing a substantial amount of protection to the support legs 22.
Referring now to FIG. 6, there is shown an alternate embodiment of the present invention. By placing a filler material on all of the surfaces to be received by the core plate 404, i.e. the support legs 22 and the lower end 16a of the cross members 16, a small gap 408 can be created at each interface between the core plate 404 and the tile 10. The small space 408 allows the tile 10 to give slightly both laterally and vertically. However, the tile 10 is able to give sufficiently that the tile is not damaged by even a large, localized load. Rather, before the cross members 16 or support legs 22 can deform sufficiently to cause damage, they will contact the core plate 404 which significantly limits further movement. The size of the spacings between the structures of the tile 10 and those of the core plate 404 can be adjusted to achieve a desired balance of give characteristics and tile support.
While in the figures the sides of the cross members 16, support legs 22, openings 116 and channels 120 all appear substantially vertical, those skilled in the art will appreciate that each usually has a small draft. The draft facilitates formation of the tile 10 and the core plate 104 or 204 during the molding process. The interaction of the drafts between, for example, the cross members 16 and the channels 120 (FIGS. 3-3B) helps to maintain a secure fit between the tile 10 and the core plate 104 or 204.
Referring now to FIG. 7, there is shown a cross-sectional view of still additional aspects of the invention. A tile 500 has an upper portion 500a which is formed by a plurality of intersecting ribs 504, and a lower section 500b which is formed by a plurality of support legs 508 which extend downwardly from the intersecting ribs. As shown in FIG. 7, the tile 500 is disposed so that the support legs 508 contact an upper portion 512a of a flooring surface. Adjacent one end of the tile 500c, the flooring surface 512 has a ledge 516 which drops to a lower portion 512b of the flooring surface. If a regular flooring tile where disposed over such a ledge 516 or otherwise irregular surface, the lack of support would lead to premature failure of the tile due to flexing each time the overhanging portion of the tile was placed under load. To prevent the tile 500 from being damaged, a support insert 490 formed by a small piece of a core plate 520 is placed under the overhanging portion of the tile 500. The core plate 520 has an upper portion 522 which is configured with a plurality of voids 524 for receiving the support legs 508 of the tile 500. Those skilled in the art will appreciate the voids 524 can be configured for support legs of any cross-sectional shape, and/or for intersecting ribs should support legs be omitted.
The core plate 520 also has lower portion 530 for resting on the flooring surface. If necessary, the lower portion 530 could be configured to fill a void in the flooring surface, or could be made to simply provide additional support over a void which cannot easily be filled. By changing the thickness of the lower portion 530, the core plate 520 can be used to adjust the height at which the tile 500 rests above the floor. The exact thickness of the core plate will depend largely on the contemplated uses thereof.
While shown in FIG. 7 as a device for filling an uneven flooring surface 512, a core plate 520 which is smaller than the tile 500 has several other uses. For example, if one side of a tile will be subjected to large rolling loads, such as is common with floors disposed under collapsible bleachers in basketball arenas, only the portion of the tile which is rolled over by the wheels supporting the bleachers needs to be supported. Thus, an insert need only be disposed under that portion which will be subjected to heavy loads. By configuring the core plate 520 smaller than the tile 500, i.e. the core plate being dimensioned in at least one direction so as to not extend within the open cavity to the perimeter of the tile, considerable material may be saved while appropriately supporting the tile.
Numerous modifications may be made to the invention as disclosed above. For example, adhesive could be placed between the tile support insert and the tile to bond the to together. Likewise, some sort of cushioning material could be used to allow a slight amount of give which preventing excessive deformation of the tiles.
Thus, there is disclosed a tile support insert which improves the ability of modular tile flooring assembly to withstand heavy, localized loads. Those skilled in the art will recognize numerous other modifications which can be made without departing from the scope and spirit of the present invention. The appended claims are intended to cover such modifications.

"Messy art, messy violence and messy nihilism from a cut-rate Mike Diana clone who reeks of high school" Nailed it.

The paintings serve as a retrospective of my lost youth. They are the embodiment of a sacred time in my life and many other people's lives when there are no responsibilities or pressures. My crossing over from childhood to adulthood has left me with a longing for the easy life...'

How We Use Crystal's Pizza Dough Recipe to Make Easy Frozen Pizza
Guest post from Katy of Kate's Great Crafts
To say our family loves pizza might be an understatement. If you ask my husband what he wants to eat, the answer will always be steak, tacos, or pizza.
Our favorite homemade pizza crust is this freezer-friendly one that Crystal shared, because we can get everything ready ahead of time.
The original recipe is set up to make two crusts, which you can freeze as a ball of dough. That works fine, except sometimes we decide we want to eat a pizza around dinner time (or for a late night snack), and we don't have four hours for the crust to thaw on the counter. So I started experimenting.
First, I wanted to see if we could roll the crusts out ahead of time, and freeze them flat in the freezer.
Yes, it works! Here's how I do it!
- Line a jelly roll pan or circular pan (the same one you'll later use to bake the pizzas) with parchment paper
- Flatten the dough to the shape of the pan
- Put the whole thing in the freezer (I wouldn't recommend freezing a pizza stone, so if you use one of those, find something else flat to freeze your crust on)
- Once the crust is frozen, remove the pan, and wrap the crust with saran wrap.
- To bake, simply unwrap and flip the crust onto the pan.
How I bake it as a frozen crust.
If you're putting the pizza in the oven right out of the freezer (after topping it with all of your yummy favorites), bake at 425°F for 18 minutes. This allows the pizza dough to come to the right temperature without heating up too quickly. Otherwise you'll end up with a burnt bottom and a doughy middle!
How I make it a thin crust.
If you're looking for a thinner crust, you can split Crystal's recipe into three crusts. The method is the same, but the baking times change slightly. To bake right away right after you mix the dough, bake at 450°F for 10-12 minutes. To bake right away from frozen, bake at 425°F for 15 minutes.
These baking times and temperatures are based on my oven, which cooks a little bit hotter than the temperature it says. You might need to adjust a bit according to your oven, but once you figure it out, you're all set for easy frozen pizzas!
I like to freeze a few of these crusts, a batch of homemade pizza sauce (which makes enough for 3 pizzas), and a few containers of toppings. With all that done ahead of time, all I have to do is pull out a crust, defrost the sauce and toppings in the microwave, and top with shredded cheese. The whole process takes about 5 minutes — perfect for a busy weeknight dinner!

John Kerry to declare emissions from everything except his private jets and mansions threats to national security
**Written by Doug Powers
Leading people to believe that terrorism (among other things) spawns as a result of carbon emissions just to scare them into supporting a climate
change disruption agenda in order to transfer trillions of dollars into the "proper" hands is dangerously irresponsible to say the least. But, if it's absolutely wrong and hypocritical, there's a good chance John Kerry will support it:
Secretary of State John Kerry plans to give a major speech on the connection between climate change and national security this summer.
In an interview with The New York Times, Kerry said the speech would also be an opportunity to build political support for President Obama's climate agenda.
"We're going to try to lay out to people legitimate options for action that are not bank-breaking or negative," Kerry said.
A central part of that agenda are regulations to curb carbon emissions from new and existing coal-fired power plants.
Kerry spoke with the Times after the release Tuesday of a government-funded military research study, which found that the increasing rate of climate changes will serve as "catalysts for instability and conflict."
The report Kerry will cite also says rising sea levels due to climate
change disruption will wreak havoc on coastlines. However, for some reason, that doesn't seem to be deterring wealthy climate change disruption alarmists from avoiding making huge investments in beachfront property, which should be the cheapest real estate around by now.
In response to his dire warning, in order to help save lives, Kerry is also expected to announce that he's going to get rid of all of the following and move with his wife into a one-bedroom eco-friendly efficiency apartment in Boston:
In winter, he goes helicopter skiing while staying at his wife's Idaho retreat, a 15th-century farmhouse transported from England and reassembled on the banks of the Big Wood River in Sun Valley. In summer, he windsurfs and sails off the coast of Nantucket, where she has another home. The couple have an 18th-century town house in Boston where the kitchen is two stories high. There is a 23-room town house in Washington, an 88-acre Pittsburgh area estate, a private Gulfstream jet and a personal staff of six, including caretakers and a cook.
Wait, correction, Kerry is not expected to announce he's getting rid of that stuff.

Nipple-Sparing Mastectomy: Critical Assessment of 51 Procedures and Implications for Selection Criteria
ABSTRACT Retrospective studies have shown that occult nipple-areolar complex (NAC) involvement in breast cancer is low, occurring in 6-10% of women undergoing skin-sparing mastectomy (SSM). The cosmetic result and high patient satisfaction of nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) has prompted further evaluation of the oncologic safety of this procedure.
We conducted a retrospective chart review of 36 self-selected patients who underwent 51 NSM procedures between 2002 and 2007. Criterion for patient selection was no clinical evidence of nipple-areolar tumor involvement. All patients had the base of the NAC evaluated for occult tumor by permanent histologic section assessment. We also evaluated tumor size, location, axillary node status, recurrence rate, and cosmetic result.
Malignant NAC involvement was found in 2 of 34 NSM (5.9%) completed for cancer which prompted subsequent removal of the NAC. Of the 51 NSM, 17 were for prophylaxis, 10 for ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), and 24 for invasive cancer. The average tumor size was 2.8 cm for invasive cancer and 2.5 cm for DCIS. Nine patients had positive axillary nodes. Overall, 94% of the tumors were located peripherally in the breast. After mean follow-up of 18 months, only two patients (5.9%) had local recurrence.
Using careful patient selection and careful pathological evaluation of the subareolar breast tissue at surgery, NSM can be an oncologically safe procedure in patients where this is important to their quality of life. A prospective study based on focused selection criteria and long-term follow-up is currently in progress.
- SourceAvailable from: David G Hicks
- "Currently, SSM is being used in most centers, including ours, which allows the removal of all breast tissue and the NAC, but preserves most of the native skin enveloping the breast.4 Because NAC involvement is present in only a small percentage of breast cancers, some believe that NSM, which preserves the NAC and may provide better cosmeses and functional results, may be an appropriate alternative for many patients undergoing mastectomy with immediate reconstruction.5–7,27–29 Because most of the NAC involvement occurs within the nipple and not the areola, Simmons et al. suggested areolar-sparing mastectomy with removal of nipple while preserving the areola as an alternative to NSM.21 "
Article: Predictors of Nipple–Areolar Complex Involvement by Breast Carcinoma: Histopathologic Analysis of 787 Consecutive Therapeutic Mastectomy Specimens[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Breast-conserving therapy (BCT) is an accepted therapeutic option for most breast cancer patients. However, mastectomy is still performed in 30-50% of patients undergoing surgeries. There is increasing interest in preservation of the nipple and/or areola in hopes of achieving improved cosmetic and functional outcomes; however, the oncologic safety of nipple-areolar complex (NAC) preservation is a major concern. We sought to identify the predictive factors for NAC involvement in breast cancer patients. We analyzed the rates and types of NAC involvement by breast carcinoma, and its association with other clinicopathologic features of the tumors in 787 consecutive therapeutic mastectomies performed at our institution between 1997 and 2009. Among these, 75 cases (9.5%) demonstrated NAC involvement. Only 21 (28%) of 75 of cases with NAC involvement could be identified grossly by inspection of the surgical specimen (seven of these had been clinically identified). NAC involvement was most significantly associated with tumors located in all four quadrants (P<0.0001), tumors>5 cm in size (P=0.0014 for invasive carcinoma and P=0.0032 for in-situ carcinoma), grade 3 tumors (P=0.0192), tumors with higher nuclear grades (P=0.0184), and tumors with HER2 overexpression (P=0.0137). On the basis of our findings, we have developed a mathematical model that is based on the extent and location of the tumor, HER2 expression, and nuclear grade that predicts the probability of NAC involvement by breast cancer. This model may aid in preoperative planning in selecting appropriate surgical procedures based on an individual patient's relative risk of NAC involvement.Annals of Surgical Oncology 10/2011; 19(4):1174-80. DOI:10.1245/s10434-011-2107-3 · 3.93 Impact Factor
- "A review article by Voltura et al. found local recurrence rates with NSM showed an equivalency to SSM.7 They thought that patients undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy were acceptable candidates for NSM. "
Article: Areola and Nipple-Areola-Sparing Mastectomy for Breast Cancer Treatment and Risk Reduction: Report of an Initial Experience in a Community Hospital Setting[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The use of areola-sparing (AS) or nipple-areola-sparing (NAS) mastectomy for the treatment or risk reduction of breast cancer has been the subject of increasing dialogue in the surgical literature over the past decade. We report the initial experience of a large community hospital with AS and NAS mastectomies for both breast cancer treatment and risk reduction. A retrospective chart review was performed of patients undergoing either AS or NAS mastectomies from November 2004 through September 2009. Data collected included patient sex, age, family history, cancer type and stage, operative surgical details, complications, adjuvant therapies, and follow-up. Forty-three patients underwent 60 AS and NAS mastectomies. Forty-two patients were female and one was male. The average age was 48.7 years (range, 28-76 years). Forty mastectomies were for breast cancer treatment, and 20 were prophylactic mastectomies. The types of cancers treated were as follows: invasive ductal (n = 19), invasive lobular (n = 5), ductal carcinoma-in situ (n = 15), and malignant phyllodes (n = 1). Forty-seven mastectomies (78.3%) were performed by inframammary incisions. All patients underwent immediate reconstruction with either tissue expanders or permanent implants. There was a 5.0% incidence of full-thickness skin, areola, or nipple tissue loss. The average follow-up of the series was 18.5 months (range, 6-62 months). One patient developed Paget's disease of the areola 34 months after an AS mastectomy (recurrence rate, 2.3%). There were no other instances of local recurrence. AS and NAS mastectomies can be safely performed in the community hospital setting with low complication rates and good short-term results.Annals of Surgical Oncology 10/2010; 18(4):917-22. DOI:10.1245/s10434-010-1365-9 · 3.93 Impact Factor
- "Oncological concerns regarding the risk of occult NAC involvement have been assuaged to some extent by several recent studies [2,27-29]. Voltura et al [30] recently reported outcomes for 34 NSMs undertaken for cancer (24 BC and 10 DCIS). In each case histological analysis of the sub-areolar tissue was performed and only 2 cases (5.9%) required subsequent NAC removal. "
Article: Oncological outcome and patient satisfaction with skin-sparing mastectomy and immediate breast reconstruction: a prospective observational study[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The management of early breast cancer (BC) with skin-sparing mastectomy (SSM) and immediate breast reconstruction (IBR) is not based on level-1 evidence. In this study, the oncological outcome, post-operative morbidity and patients' satisfaction with SSM and IBR using the latissimus dorsi (LD) myocutaneous flap and/or breast prosthesis is evaluated. 137 SSMs with IBR (10 bilateral) were undertaken in 127 consecutive women, using the LD flap plus implant (n = 85), LD flap alone (n = 1) or implant alone (n = 51), for early BC (n = 130) or prophylaxis (n = 7). Nipple reconstruction was performed in 69 patients, using the trefoil local flap technique (n = 61), nipple sharing (n = 6), skin graft (n = 1) and Monocryl mesh (n = 1). Thirty patients underwent contra-lateral procedures to enhance symmetry, including 19 augmentations and 11 mastopexy/reduction mammoplasties. A linear visual analogue scale was used to assess patient satisfaction with surgical outcome, ranging from 0 (not satisfied) to 10 (most satisfied). After a median follow-up of 36 months (range = 6-101 months) there were no local recurrences. Overall breast cancer specific survival was 99.2%, 8 patients developed distant disease and 1 died of metastatic BC. There were no cases of partial or total LD flap loss. Morbidities included infection, requiring implant removal in 2 patients and 1 patient developed marginal ischaemia of the skin envelope. Chemotherapy was delayed in 1 patient due to infection. Significant capsule formation, requiring capsulotomy, was observed in 85% of patients who had either post-mastectomy radiotherapy (PMR) or prior radiotherapy (RT) compared with 13% for those who had not received RT. The outcome questionnaire was completed by 82 (64.6%) of 127 patients with a median satisfaction score of 9 (range = 5-10). SSM with IBR is associated with low morbidity, high levels of patient satisfaction and is oncologically safe for T(is), T1 and T2 tumours without extensive skin involvement.BMC Cancer 03/2010; 10(1):171.

Back in the 1960s, the phrase "the sick society" was coined among liberals to assess a collective responsibility for that era's crime, riots, racism, and political assassinations.
It seems quaint now. When a former Marine ascended the 30-story tower at the University of Texas in 1966 and used his sniper skills to shoot 14 people to death, it was a shocking act. There were no SWAT teams then, no militarized police. Such events were almost unheard of. Two Austin police officers and a civilian, armed with revolvers and a rifle, made it out on the roof of the tower and killed the sniper.
Today mass shootings, "rampage killers," are so common they can be mapped. So many have occurred in recent years, they are on spreadsheets. A calendar can be marked up: 274 days, 294 mass shootings.
That's a sick society.
After the latest, at a community college in a small town in Oregon, I struggled to write something beyond my earlier column "Empire of Violence." Vast terrain of the Internet was taken with predictable outrage and horror, but ultimately pretty empty stuff. The most intelligent prescriptive writing came from the New York Times' Nick Kristof, urging us to treat gun violence as a public health issue.
