Compliance with Ethical Standards

:

: The authors declare no competing interests.

: All reported studies/experiments with human or animal subjects performed by the authors were performed in accordance with all applicable ethical standards including the Helsinki declaration and its amendments, institutional/national research committee standards, and international/national/institutional guidelines. The medical records of patients whose case was not yet published were retrospectively reviewed. All data collected were anonymized using standardized forms according to the procedures of the Commission Nationale de l’Informatique et des Libertés (the French Information Protection Commission). The study was approved by the local ethics committee, as this research conformed to the French MR004 reference methodology and fell within the framework of so-called internal research; that is, the data were collected as part of individual follow-up of patients, by the staff responsible for such follow-up, and for their exclusive use. In accordance with European regulation on data protection, the study was registered in the hospital’s registry of processing activities by the data protection officer and the collective information was made available to patients by means of a poster in the department, allowing them to express their refusal to participate, if necessary.
