This article evaluates the availability of key information on independent rhinology/skull base surgery fellowship websites compared to the American Rhinologic Society (ARS) website. The study found that out of 37 identified programs, 34 had program-created fellowship websites. On average, program-created websites fulfilled 49.4% of the criteria, while the ARS website fulfilled 58.1%. Important information such as case volume, sample case logs, and graduate placements were inconsistently provided on both types of websites. The article suggests that including these criteria could help applicants make more informed decisions when applying for a fellowship in rhinology/skull base surgery. [Extracted from the article]

Sentinel lymph node mapping in patients with axillary breast carcinoma is technically challenging and poorly described in the literature. We report a patient with primary ectopic breast carcinoma of the axilla in whom concurrent peri‐tumoral and intra‐tumoral injection of radionuclide tracer allowed for identification and biopsy of sentinel lymph nodes.

Wnt-activated medulloblastoma (MB) confers an excellent prognosis. However, specific treatment strategies for patients with relapsed Wnt-MB are unknown. We report two patients with recurrent beta-catenin nucleopositive Wnt-MB successfully treated by incorporating marrow-ablative chemotherapy and autologous hematopoietic progenitor cell rescue (HDCx/AuHPCR). We also present a review of the literature for previously reported cases of relapsed Wnt-MB. We propose that patients with recurrent Wnt-MB may be treated using a multi-disciplinary approach that includes HDCx/AuHPCR with or without re-irradiation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
