Skin metastases originated from cervical cancer: A rare case report.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Metastases in cervical cancer could be spread through direct local invasion, lymphatic dissemination, or hematogenous dissemination. The most common sites of distant metastases are lungs, bone, and liver. Skin metastases from cervical cancer are categorized as a rare occurrence of metastases. This rarity of the cases has led us to report it.

Case description

A 66-year-old multiparous woman diagnosed with stage IIA cervical cancer seven years ago, then she came into our outpatient clinic complained about a brownish white color mass on the left side of the neck that keeps getting bigger over time came from a skin lesion. The lesion was first treated with topical steroid but there was no improvement. Biopsy was done and the result showed a carcinoma metastasis that led to adenosquamous carcinoma or cervical adenocarcinoma. The patient went through chemoradiation with biosensitizer paclitaxel 120 mg/m² for six cycles, which began in August 2019 until October 2019. The treatment progress showed a promising result. We observed the patient during treatment until two months after finishing the treatment. At the last visit, the patient came to our outpatient clinic, the mass size decreased significantly, and the skin showed an excellent regeneration sign.

Conclusion

The physicians should always consider the patient's history and pay more attention to skin lesions in patients with a history of cervical cancer. The physicians should also perform a thorough physical examination and biopsy to confirm the diagnosis.

Multiple chromoanasynthesis in a rare case of sporadic renal leiomyosarcoma: case report

Project description:Renal leiomyosarcomas (LMS) are extremely rare neoplasms with aggressive behaviour and poor survival prognosis. The most frequent somatic events in leiomyosarcomas are mutations in TP53, RB1, ATRX and PTEN genes, chromosomal instability and chromoanagenesis. By using chromosomal microarray analysis we identified monosomy of chromosomes 3 and 11, gain of Xp (ATRX) arm and three chromoanasynthesis regions (6q21-q27, 7p22.3-p12.1 and 12q13.11-q21.2), with MDM2 and CDK4 oncogenes copy number gains, whereas no CNVs or tumor specific SNVs in TP53, RB1 and PTEN genes were observed.

Case Report: Recurrent Malignant Struma Ovarii With Hyperthyroidism and Metastases, A Rare Case Report and Review of the Literature.

Project description:Background: SO (Struma ovarii) is a rare form of ovarian teratoma which originates from ovarian dermoid cysts. Due to the rarity of this disease, relevant studies might not be sufficiently documented, especially cases with hyperthyroidism and multiple metastases. Case Presentation: A 40-year-old female patient was admitted to our hospital due to management of early pregnancy along with a recurrent abdominal and pelvic mass. Contrast-enhanced CT images showed an irregular mass (10.7 × 8.6 × 12.8 cm) located in the right side from the hypogastrium to the pelvic cavity and another mass (3.8 × 3.7 cm) in the liver. Laboratory examination showed that CA125 (Carbohydrate Antigen-125) was 118.10 U/mL, Tg (thyroglobulin) was >300 ng/ml, FT4 (free thyroxine) was 22.11 pmol/L, and TSH (thyroid-stimulating hormone) was <0.004 mIU/L. She subsequently underwent liver mass dissection, omentectomy, tumor dissection, peritoneal nodule resection, as well as rectal anterior wall nodule resection. The patient was diagnosed with malignant SO (papillary type) along with multiple metastases. Also, we conducted a literature review based on 290 SO cases from 257 articles. Conclusion: This study showed that malignant SO might be prone to relapse and metastasize (a metastatic rate of 52.94%) and therefore aggressive management might need to be recommended for malignant SO. Also, laparotomy might need to be recommended for large tumors that cannot be resected by laparoscopic surgery since these tumors might be prone to rupture and thus produce peritoneal implants. Furthermore, Graves' disease might need to be considered in the differential diagnosis.

Malignant phyllodes tumor with metastases to lung, adrenal and brain: A rare case report.

Project description:BackgroundPhyllodes tumors are spectrum of tumors ranging from benign to malignant. Malignant spectrum pose a management challenge for clinicians due to high risks of recurrence and metastasis. Malignant phyllodes tumor with brain, lung and adrenal metastases at the same time is rare.Case presentationA 37 years-old unmarried female presented with an ulcerated huge lump in left breast with severe bleeding. Trucut biopsy showed necrosis with spindle cell proliferation with atypia for which she underwent modified radical mastectomy with final diagnosis of malignant phyllodes tumor. Three months after surgery, patient presented with headache, which on further evaluation showed masses in lung, right adrenal and brain.ConclusionWe presented a rare case of malignant phyllodes tumor with clinical, imaging and histological findings with metastases to multiple sites early in course and poor outcome of the patient despite margin negative resection.

Periampullary Metastases from Breast Cancer: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Project description:We presented a metastatic breast cancer case who was afflicted with obstructive jaundice caused by an ampullary neoplasm. Since jaundice due to periampullary metastasis from breast cancer was a rare entity, a literature review of similar cases through the PubMed database was done. A total of 23 additional cases were found. Among these 24 cases, 5 presented with periampullary metastasis synchronously with the diagnosis of breast cancer, while 19 had metachronous periampullary metastasis with an interval ranging between 1.3 and 23 years from the initial diagnosis of breast cancer to the emergence of jaundice. It is intriguing to establish a differential diagnosis for common bile tract stricture prior to tissue biopsy, even with diagnostic workups including serum tumor markers, MRI plus MRCP, ERCP with intraductal brushing, and endoscopic ultrasound, in that the clinical, radiological, and endoscopic findings of metastatic lesions overlapped extensively with those found with primary periampullary malignancies. An immunohistochemical portfolio including cytokeratin7/20 (CK7/20), homeobox protein CDX2, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2/neu), estrogen receptor alfa (ER?), progesterone receptor (PgR), mammaglobin, gross cystic disease fluid protein-15 (GCDFP-15), and transacting T-cell-specific transcription factor (GATA-3) was helpful for differential diagnosis among cases with ambiguous microscopic features.

Huge follicular carcinoma originated from struma ovarii in young woman; Extremely rare case.

Project description:IntroductionStruma ovarii (SO) is a rare ovarian mature teratoma which is composed of 50% or more thyroid tissues. Malignant transformation is reported to occur in less than 5% of all cases, and it leads to 5-6% metastatic disease. The most common type is a papillary carcinoma. However, follicular carcinoma of arising from SO is extremely rare.Case presentationA 23-year-old nullipara complained of right lower abdominal pain. CT scan revealed a large complex cystic and solid mass in pelvic cavity with moderate amount ascites with peritoneal thickening and omental infiltration. We performed a right salpingo-oophorectomy and surgical staging.Clinical discussionIt was diagnosed with follicular carcinoma, stage IA. After the multidisciplinary team meeting, we decided not to conduct additional treatment, including total thyroidectomy followed by radioiodine treatment and T4 therapy because thyroid tests were normal findings.ConclusionThere is still no established treatment consensus for follicular carcinoma of SO patients. The choice for a conservative or radical approach depends on the doctor. However, conservative surgery could be considered for low risk, early stage patients who have childbearing potential.

Rosai-Dorfman disease as a rare cause of cervical lymphadenopathy - case report and literature review.

Project description:Rosai-Dorfman disease (RDD), also known as sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy, is a rare, benign clinical entity of unknown cause. RDD is characterised by the overproduction and accumulation of histiocytes, primarily in the lymph nodes, although it may affect every organ and system. It predominantly affects children and young adults. Typically, patients are in good general condition, with massive cervical lymphadenopathy and fever. In about 40% of cases extranodal localisation of RDD is diagnosed. In laboratory tests the most common abnormalities are increased erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), leukocytosis with neutrophilia, normocytic anaemia, and hypergammaglobulinaemia. Histopathological examination remains the mainstay of diagnosis - lymph nodes have massive sinusoidal dilation, containing histiocytes positive for S-100 and CD68, and negative for CD1a. Most patients do not require treatment as spontaneous remissions are observed. We present a brief review of the literature and the case of a six-year-old boy with cervical lymphadenopathy diagnosed with RDD. So far, the patient has not required systemic treatment and has been kept under observation.

Are gastric metastases of renal cell carcinoma really rare? A case report and systematic review of the literature.

Project description:IntroductionRenal cell carcinoma (RCC) represents above 3 % of all cancers. At diagnosis, above 25 % of patients with RCC present an advanced disease. Gastric metastasis of RCC is associated with poor outcome. We report the case of a patient treated for a gastric metastasis of RCC and we conducted a systematic review of the literature to report all published cases of RCC patients with gastric metastasis.Case presentationIn December 2010, a 61-year-old man was treated by open partial nephrectomy for a localized right clear cell RCC. In September 2018, a metachronous gastric metastasis was found on CT scan. The lesion was located on the lesser curvature of the stomach, measuring 4.5 cm long axis. No other secondary lesions were identified. A laparoscopic wedge resection, converted to laparotomy was performed. Two years later, in September 2020, a CT scan was performed, revealing a 17 mm adenopathy behind the hepatic hilum and a surgical management was performed, including a lymph node dissection of the hepatic hilum and the hepatic artery. Actually, he remains healthy.Clinical discussion and conclusionOur systematic review suggests that solitary gastric metastasis of RCC are scarce. In comparison of patients with multiple metastatic sites, the median survival of patients with solitary gastric metastasis is longer.

Apocrine Hidrocystoma: A Rare Case Report.

Project description:Hidrocystoma is a cystic tumor originating from a dilated sweat gland. The tumor is typically small and located predominantly on the face, particularly in the eyelid margins. They are two classical types of hidrocystomas i.e., Apocrine and Eccrine. Apocrine hidrocystomas are cystic lesions that arise from the apocrine secretory coil and Eccrine hidrocystomas represent retention cysts of the eccrine duct. Multiple apocrine hidrocystomas confined to the eyelids have been recognized as a feature of a new variant of ectodermal dysplasia. Here we present a rare case of Apocrine hidrocystoma of supraorbital area for which excisional biopsy of the lesion was performed. Histopathological evaluation proved the lesion was a unilocular cyst lined by a double-layered epithelium of the apocrine type. The purpose of this paper is to report the unique occurrence of a Supra orbital apocrine hidrocystoma which was clinically as a sebaceous cyst and to discuss its differential diagnosis with other more common supraorbital and face lesions.
