Prostatic stromal sarcoma: A case report and literature review.

ABSTRACT:

Rationale

prostatic stromal sarcoma is a very rare malignant tumor that accounts for <0.1% of prostate malignancy. PATIENT CONCERNS:: we reported a 49-year-old man presented with dysuria and hematuria, whose computed tomography examination showed an enlarged prostate gland with an irregular shape. DIAGNOSES:: the diagnosis was confirmed on the basis of imaging manifestations and histopathological findings which were proved as prostatic stromal sarcoma.

Interventions

The patient underwent radical prostatectomy OUTCOMES:: his postoperative condition was good.

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.

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.

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.

Metastasis of Ewing Sarcoma to the Pancreas: Case Report and Literature Review.

Project description:Ewing sarcoma (ES) is a highly aggressive malignant bone cancer. ES is part of the Ewing sarcoma family of tumors (ESFT), which express characteristic t(11;22) translocation as well as higher levels of CD99. Given that metastasis and tumor burden are significant prognostic factors in patient's response to treatment, prompt diagnosis is needed to effectively treat ESFT patients. However, the challenges in classifying and characterizing ESFT complicate effective management and treatment of ES. In this report, we present a rare case of ES metastasis to the pancreas. Upon review of the literature, we found 39 cases of ESFT involving the pancreas, but only 3 were metastatic to the pancreas while the remaining cases of ESFT primarily originated from the pancreas. Given the rarity of such metastasis, the positive outcome in our patient's case may explain the importance of prompt diagnosis in order to initiate appropriate treatment.

The progression of CD56+ myeloid sarcoma: A case report and literature review.

Project description:The current study presents a case of cluster of differentiation (CD)56+ myeloid sarcoma in a patient that initially presented with skin lesions, and provides evidence for the clinical and differential diagnosis of myeloid sarcoma. The patient of the present case report was a 65-year-old man who was admitted to hospital with a six-month history of bilateral purple-red papules and nodules, which were present on the upper limbs of the patient and had spread over his whole body one month prior to admission to the hospital. Pathological examination demonstrated a diffuse infusion of primitive round cells at the papillary dermis and subcutaneous tissues. The infiltrated cells were 40-60 µm in diameter and morphologically identical. Immunohistochemical examination revealed that the cells expressed myeloperoxidase, CD56, CD43 and T-cell intracytoplasmic antigen. In addition, several cells expressed CD34, and 90% of the cells expressed Ki67. While the majority of cells in myeloid sarcoma do not express CD56, the present case was a myeloid sarcoma that expressed CD56, which is extremely rare. The sarcoma in the present patient progressed rapidly, and the patient died eight months following the onset of disease. Clinicians should be aware of CD56+ myeloid sarcoma, which is easily misdiagnosed and inappropriately treated. Consequently, myeloid sarcoma may have a high malignancy and poor outcome for patients.

A Rare Case of Pure Erythroid Sarcoma in a Pediatric Patient: Case Report and Literature Review.

Project description:We describe an exceptional case of erythroid sarcoma in a pediatric patient as a growing orbital mass with no evidence of morphologic bone marrow involvement, who was finally diagnosed of pure erythroid sarcoma based on histopathology and flow cytometry criteria. We discuss the contribution of standardized eight-color flow cytometry as a rapid and reliable diagnostic method. The use of normal bone marrow databases allowed us to identify small aberrant populations in bone marrow and later confirm the diagnosis in the neoplastic tissue.
