Chute and Conduit-Tubular Carcinoma Breast

A brief case communication discusses a rare breast carcinoma subtype, summarizing pathology features, imaging, and considerations for surgical and adjuvant management.

RET 898-901Del mutant, a variant of unknown significance, has a durable response to Pralsetinib in a Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma patient

Background Patients with distant metastatic Medullary Thyroid Carcinoma (MTC) have an estimated 40% ten-year survival rate. Gain of function mutations in the REarranged during Transfection or RET gene in MTC can result in an aggressive phenotype resistant to traditional therapy. In this case report,…

Massive Hematemesis as Initial Presentation of Advanced Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma

Pancreatic adenocarcinoma is one of the leading causes of cancer-related death in the United States. Rarely, a tumor at the head of the pancreas can invade adjacent structures to cause a gastrointestinal bleed (GIB). We present a 78-year-old female whose massive upper GIB was the initial presentatio…

Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma of the Lacrimal Gland in a 36 year Old Male

A case of lacrimal gland adenoid cystic carcinoma in a 36‑year‑old male is presented. The report reviews imaging, histopathology, perineural invasion risk, and multimodal management including surgery and radiotherapy.

Pure Small Cell Carcinoma of Prostate in a Patient Presenting with Acute Urinary Retention: A Rare Case Report

Small cell carcinoma of the prostate is a rare and highly aggressive subtype of prostate cancers. In this case report, we evaluated a patient applied our outpatient clinic with acute urinary retention, whose pathology reported as pure small cell carcinoma of the prostate. A 73-year-old male patient…

Role of Tie2, CD14, Angiopoietin as Angiogenetic Markers in Hepatocellular Carcinoma Complicating Hepatitis C Virus Infection

Background Identifying biomarkers for early detection of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains quite challenging. In this study we aimed to estimate the number of TIE2-expressing monocytes (TEMs) cells, which display pro-tumoral activities and are defined as CD14+, TIE2+, and angiopoietin-2; and it…

Transmutation of Sweat Glands - Eccrine Porocarcinoma

Initially described by Pinkus and Mehregan in 1963 as an  epidermotropic eccrine carcinoma, eccrine porocarcinoma cogitates an exceptional sweat gland malignancy. Eccrine porocarcinoma was adapted as a nomenclature by Mishisma and Morikoin in 1969. The neoplasm is a malignant analogue of eccrine por…

Chalkley Counting in Oral Tongue Squamous Cell Carcinoma:Does It have A Prognostic Value?

Chalkley counting has been regarded as a relatively reliable method of quantifying tumor angiogenesis. In this study we investigated the reliability of Chalkley counting in quantifying tumor angiogenesis in oral tongue squamous cell carcinoma (OTSCC) using CD34; and tumor vasculogenesis using angiot…

A Case of Collision Tumor of MALT Lymphoma and Poorly Differentiated Adenocarcinoma Diagnosed Incidentally After Appendectomy for a Clinical Presentation of Acute Appendicitis.

This report presents a case of collision tumors of low-grade B-cell lymphoma and poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma in the caceum of a 63-year-old woman. Lymphoma was diagnosed incidentally after appendectomy for a clinical presentation of acute appendicitis. Imaging follow-up demonstrated mesente…

Relationship Between Inflammatory Infiltrate Canine Mammary Carcinomas.

The mammary tumor is one of the most common cancer in female dogs and, at the present days, there is a big focus on the study of the relation between this kind of tumor in animals and the cells that stay around them, like the inflammatory cells. The objective of this study was to evaluate and show w…

Tumor Growth Dynamics: Dietary Fish Oil Induced Inhibition of Human Breast Carcinoma Growth, A Phenomenon of Reduced Cellular DNA Synthesis or Increased Cell Loss?

Diets high in unsaturated fatty acids, especially those containing high levels of linoleic acid, e.g., corn oil, enhance mammary gland tumorigenesis in experimental animals. In contrast, diets high in long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids such as eicosapentaenoic (EPA) and docosahexaenoic (DHA), e.…

Importance of Neutrophil/Lymphocyte Ratio in Squamous-Cell Carcinoma of the Larynx

Aim: The relation between inflammation and cancer has been known since the 19th century. However, investigations on the pathogenesis and pathophysiology of this relation have begun recently. It was demonstrated that increased neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio is a poor prognostic factor in some malignanci…
