Treatment and molecular analysis of bullous pemphigoid with tofacitinib: a case report and review of current literature

Project description:Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is a rare, life-threatening autoimmune blistering disease with pruritus and tension blisters/bullous as the main clinical manifestations. Glucocorticosteroids are the main therapeutic agents for it, but their efficacy is poor in some patients. Tofacitinib, a small molecule agent that inhibits JAK1/3, has shown incredible efficacy in a wide range of autoimmune diseases and maybe a new valuable treatment option for refractory BP. To report a case of refractory BP successfully treated with tofacitinib, then explore the underlying mechanism behind the treatment, and finally review similarities to other cases reported in the literature. Case report and literature review of published cases of successful BP treatment with JAK inhibitors. The case report describes a 73-year-old male with refractory BP that was successfully managed with the combination therapy of tofacitinib and low-dose glucocorticoids for 28 weeks. Immunohistochemistry and RNA sequencing were performed to analyze the underlying mechanism of tofacitinib therapy. A systematic literature search was conducted to identify other cases of treatment with JAK inhibitors. Throughout the 28-week treatment period, the patient experienced clinical, autoantibody and histologic resolution. Immunohistochemical analysis showed tofacitinib significantly decreased the pSTAT3 and pSTAT6 levels in the skin lesions of this patient. RNA sequencing and immunohistochemical testing of lesion samples from other BP patients identified activation of the JAK-STAT signaling pathway. Literature review revealed 17 previously reported cases of BP treated with four kinds of JAK inhibitors successfully, including tofacitinib (10), baricitinib (1), upadacitinib (3) and abrocitinib (3). Our findings support the potential of tofacitinib as a safe and effective treatment option for BP. Larger studies are underway to better understand this efficacy and safety.

Endometrial stromal sarcoma arising in colorectal endometriosis: a case report and review of the literature.

Project description:Extrauterine endometrial stromal sarcoma (ESS) arising in endometriosis is extremely rare, particularly in the colorectum. It should always be included in the differential diagnosis of primary tumors originating from gastrointestinal tract in females, given that preoperative endoscopical biopsy may reveal no specific changes. We reported a case of ESS arising in colorectal endometriosis and reviewed the previous 7 cases reported in the English literature. Our patient, who was unavailable for tumor resection and refused further adjuvant therapy, played a role in representing the natural history of low-grade extragenital ESS. This case was the only death from ESS arising in colorectal endometriosis.

Endometrial stromal sarcoma metastatic to the inferior vena cava: a case report and literature review.

Project description:BackgroundEndometrial stromal sarcoma (ESS) is a uterine stromal tumor with a very low incidence, accounting for 10-15% of all uterine stromal malignancies and 0.2% of all uterine malignancies. The most common extrauterine location of ESS is the ovary, and it is relatively rare outside the uterus. Although most recurrences occur within the pelvis, distant metastases can occur.Case descriptionWe report a rare case of low-grade ESS (LG-ESS) metastatic to the inferior vena cava (IVC) which is difficult to distinguish from leiomyoma clinically. A 56-year-old woman attended outpatient complaining right thigh pain. She underwent a surgery of hysterectomy and bilateral adnexectomy 12 years ago. Abdominal contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) demonstrated that the vaginal stump was thick, with peripheral multiple nodular shadow. Soft tissue shadow in the right pelvic cavity. Thickening and enhancement of soft tissue shadow were observed in the peripheral blood vessels of the vaginal stump, the right internal iliac vein and the external iliac vein to the IVC of the liver segment. Malignancy (recurrence or metastasis) were considered. After multidisciplinary consultant, a preoperative diagnosis of leiomyomatosis of the IVC was made and surgical treatment was performed. Surgeons performed laparotomy, resection of tumor in IVC, right common iliac vein, right external iliac vein, right internal iliac vein and left common iliac vein. Post-operative pathology of dissected tumor demonstrated LG-ESS. The source may be the ovarian venous stump left after surgery 12 years ago. After a gynecological consultant, chemotherapy is recommended and is currently under follow-up.ConclusionsWe report a rare case of LG-ESS metastatic to the IVC, which was probably a lesion derived from the ovarian venous stump remaining after surgery 12 years ago.

Ovarian Microcystic Stromal Tumor: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Project description:Background: Microcystic stromal tumor is a recently described subtype of ovarian tumor characterized by microcystic pattern and diffuse immunoreactivity for CD10, vimentin, and ?-catenin and negative for EMA. However, its diagnostic criterion and standard treatment remain unclear. Case presentation: We report a rare case of a left side microcystic stromal tumor with diameter about 7 cm in a 25-year-old female and summarize all cases of MCST reported in this study. The present patient underwent left ovarian tumor resection. Generally, the tumor was solid and cystic mixed. Immunohistochemically, the tumor was expressed CD10, WT1, cyclin D1 and vimentin, and nuclear immunoreactivity for ?-catenin but negative for ?-inhibin, calretinin, CK AE1/AE3, PLAP, SALL-4, CK7, P53, EMA, CD99, AFP, desmin, CgA, E-cadherin, and melanA. Conclusion: Unilateral ovary, solid-cystic, and a larger than 4-8 cm pelvic mass without serious abdominal pain are its clinical features. The immunophenotype of vimentin+/CD10+/WT-1+/?-catenin+(nuclei)/cyclin D1+ is supportive of diagnosis. For these patients, unilateral oophorectomy dissection could be selected.

Left atrial spindle cell sarcoma: A case report and literature review.

Project description:RationaleCardiac primary spindle cell sarcoma is 1 of the rarest cardiac malignancies, with only a few cases reported so far. Herein, we reported a case of left atrial spindle cell sarcoma diagnosed and treated by a multidisciplinary approach, and retrospectively reviewed other reported cases.Patient concernsA 49-year-old woman presented to our hospital with 2 weeks of gradual onset of dyspnea on exertion, dry cough and subacute fever.DiagnosisThe patient was initially revealed a left atrium mass by 2-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography. Based on the contrast-enhanced echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, she was subsequently suggested to have a cardiac malignant tumor. And the post-operative histopathology confirmed the tumor to be a cardiac primary spindle cell sarcoma.InterventionsThe tumor was completely resected using autotransplantation. The patient was referred for polychemotherapy afterwards.OutcomesOur patient underwent the tumor resection, with subsequent adjuvant polychemotherapy, and the tumor has not recurred during 12 months of follow-up.LessonsDue to the rarity of these tumors and nonspecific symptoms, they are often difficult to diagnose preoperatively and missed occasionally. Thus, improving our understanding of the disease and facilitating its early diagnosis are essential.

Pancreatic follicular dendritic cell sarcoma: one case report and literature review.

Project description:Pancreatic follicular dendritic cell sarcoma (FDCS) is a rare neoplasm with unclear pathological characteristics. In this study, we report one case of pancreatic FDCS and review published cases to summarize the characteristics and treatment of pancreatic FDCS. A man in his early 30 s was admitted for jaundice, abdominal fullness, and weight loss for 15 days. Computed tomography revealed a large capsule solid mass in the pancreatic head together with a dilated bile duct and enlarged retroperitoneal lymph nodes. Serum biochemistry revealed high total bilirubin levels (313.9 μmol/L) and normal tumor marker levels. Pancreatoduodenectomy was performed, but no chemotherapy was administrated at the patient's behest. The pathologic diagnosis was pancreatic FDCS infiltrating the duodenal seromuscular layer and common bile duct. The patient presented with liver metastasis 3 months after surgery and died 8 months after surgery from multiorgan failure. Pancreatic FDCS is a rare disease with high invasiveness. Our previous case exhibited paraneoplastic syndrome together with this disease, and further investigation is needed to confirm whether paraneoplastic syndrome is a typical syndrome of pancreatic FDCS.

Hepatic Kaposi sarcoma: A case report and review of the literature.

Project description:Kaposi sarcoma (KS) is an aggressive cancer caused by human herpesvirus-8, primarily seen in immunocompromised patients. As opposed to the well-described cutaneous manifestations and pulmonary complications of KS, hepatic KS is rarely reported before death as most patients with hepatic KS do not manifest symptoms or evidence of liver injury. In patients with acquired immune deficiency syndrome, hepatic involvement of KS is present in 12%-24% of the population on incidental imaging and in approximately 35% of patients with cutaneous KS if an autopsy was completed after their death. Patients with clinically significant hepatic injury due to hepatic KS usually have an aggressive course of disease with hepatic failure often progressing to multi-organ failure and death. Here we report an unusual presentation of acute liver injury due to hepatic KS and briefly review the published literature on hepatic KS.
