Stewart-Treves syndrome is a rare cutaneous angiosarcoma with a poor prognosis. Physicians must be aware of this lethal syndrome, especially in patients who have been treated for breast cancer with radiation and lymph-node dissection (such as the case reported here). Patients who develop unexplained enlarging plaques of coalescing purple papules should have immediate biopsy for early diagnosis ...

Stewart-Treves Syndrome is characterized by the presence of lymphangiosarcoma on limb extremities. Rare, it occurs in 0.5% of patients who have undergone radical mastectomy with axillary node dissection. The main cause is chronic lymphedema with endothelial and lymphatic differentiation, with no direct relationship to breast cancer. Seven years after a radical right-side mastectomy with lymph n...

In this paper the design of a new DOF RPRS parallel manipulator has been proposed Di erent from the conventional Stewart Gough platform manipulator which has six extensible legs the RPRS parallel manipula tor employs three identical RPRS legs to support the mov ing platform Consequently it possesses a compromised per formance e g workspace accuracy and sti ness between a serial robot and a six ...

In this paper, we present three fast, hybrid numericalgebraic methods to solve polynomial systems in floating point representation, based on the eigendecomposition of a so-called multiplication matrix. In particular, these methods run using standard double precision, use only linear algebra packages, and are easy to implement. We provide the proof that these methods do indeed produce valid mult...
