Carcinoma Cervix Leading to Ichthyosis Uteri: A Rare Case Report.

ABSTRACT: Ichthyosis uteri is an exceedingly rare condition in which the entire surface of the endometrium is replaced by stratified squamous epithelium. It is a benign lesion and its association with benign and malignant conditions has been reported in the literature (Bewtra, Xie, Hunter, Jurgensen (Arch Pathol Lab Med 29:e124-e125, 2005)). Originally described as an endometrial response to iatrogenically introduced caustic substances, similar changes have since been described in association with a variety of inflammatory conditions of the endometrium. It is concluded that a squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix extended proximally into the endometrium (Bagga, Jaswal, Datta, Mahajan (Indian J Pathol Microbiol 51:267-268, 2008)). The possibility of significant cervical pathology should be considered when plaques of squamous epithelium with low-grade dysplastic changes are identified in an endometrial biopsy or curettage.

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.

[Neuroendocrine carcinoma of the cervix: a case report and review of the literature].

Project description:Small cell neuroendocrine carcinomas of the gynecologic tract are unusual, accounting for only 2% of the cervical cancers. Given the rarity of these tumors and the absence of randomized trials, their diagnosis and treatment programmes are difficult and are essentially based on those of neuroendocrine tumors of the lung. As in the case of the neuroendocrine tumors of the lung and despite multimodal treatment they are associated with a poor prognosis. We here report a new case of small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the cervix and, throught a literature review, we highlight the various aspects of this rare entity.

Prognostic significance of poorly differentiated histology and impact of adjuvant chemotherapy in early squamous cell carcinoma of cervix uteri.

Project description:ObjectiveThis study is to determine whether the addition of cisplatin-based chemotherapy after radical hysterectomy will improve the survival of low-risk squamous cervical carcinoma with poor differentiation.MethodsPatients with low-risk squamous cervical cancer (FIGO IA2-IIA, absent high- and intermediate-risk factors after pathological evaluation) were eligible for this study. As first, the prognostic relevance of G3 versus G1/G2 among patients with low-risk squamous cervical cancer was analyzed, then, the oncological results of postoperative chemotherapy among low-risk squamous cervical cancer with poor differentiation was explored.ResultsTotally, there were 367 low-risk squamous cervical cancer patients, of whom 161 were poor-differentiated (47 in the chemotherapy group and 114 in the nonchemotherapy group), with a median follow-up time of 56 months. Patients with G3 displayed a significantly worse overall survival (p = 0.035), and a higher recurrence rate (p = 0.014) than patients with G1/G2. Compared with the nonchemotherapy group, the hazard ratios (95%CI) for recurrence-free survival in the chemotherapy group was 0.24 (0.06-0.93), (p = 0.038). No difference in overall survival was observed between the chemotherapy group and the nonchemotherapy group.ConclusionsThe addition of cisplatin-based chemotherapy following surgery significantly improved recurrence-free survival for low-risk, poor differentiation, and early stage squamous cervical cancer patients.

High-grade serous papillary ovarian carcinoma combined with nonkeratinizing squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix: a case report.

Project description:Multiple primary malignant neoplasms are a rare gynecologic malignancy; particularly, cases originating from the heterologous organs, such as the ovary and cervix. Here, we report a case of two primary malignant neoplasms in a patient who had undergone laparoscopic radical hysterectomy + bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy + pelvic lymph node dissection + para-aortic lymphadenectomy + appendectomy + omentectomy + metastasectomy under general anesthesia. The patient experienced complete remission after six courses of postoperative chemotherapy with a standard Taxol and Carboplatin regimen. Genetic testing was performed to detect BRCA2 mutations, and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors were used for maintenance therapy.

A Nomogram-Based Risk Classification System Predicting the Overall Survival of Patients With Newly Diagnosed Stage IVB Cervix Uteri Carcinoma.

Project description:Background: This study constructed and demonstrated a model to predict the overall survival (OS) of newly diagnosed distant metastatic cervical cancer (mCC) patients. Methods: The SEER (Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results) database was used to collect the eligible data, which from 2010 to 2016. Then these data were separated into training and validation cohorts (7:3) randomly. Cox regression analyses was used to identify parameters significantly correlated with OS. Harrell's Concordance index (C-index), calibration curves, and decision curve analysis (DCA) were further applied to verify the performance of this model. Results: A total of 2,091 eligible patients were enrolled and randomly split into training (n = 1,467) and validation (n = 624) cohorts. Multivariate analyses revealed that age, histology, T stage, tumor size, metastatic sites, local surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy were independent prognostic parameters and were then used to build a nomogram for predicting 1 and 2-year OS. The C-index of training group and validation group was 0.714 and 0.707, respectively. The calibration curve demonstrated that the actual observation was in good agreement with the predicted results concluded by the nomogram model. Its clinical usefulness was further revealed by the DCAs. Based on the scores from the nomogram, a corresponding risk classification system was constructed. In the overall population, the median OS time was 23.0 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 20.5-25.5), 12.0 months (95% CI, 11.1-12.9), and 5.0 months (95% CI, 4.4-5.6), in the low-risk group, intermediate-risk group, and high-risk group, respectively. Conclusion: A novel nomogram and a risk classification system were established in this study, which purposed to predict the OS time with mCC patients. These tools could be applied to prognostic analysis and should be validated in future studies.

Case Report: Rare Case of Synchronous Neck Metastasis From Metachronous Bilateral Renal Cell Carcinoma.

Project description:Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a malignant tumor that can metastasize easily. Hence, many patients have already developed metastasis when they are diagnosed. It is also one of the most common tumors that metastasize to the head and neck through extranodal disease. Herein, we reported a case of a 53-year-old man with cervical metastasis from bilateral RCC. Interestingly, whole exome sequencing (WES) and clonal evolution analysis revealed that bilateral renal tumor lesions and neck metastases (squamous cell carcinoma) share the same subclones and a large number of gene variants, while the pathological morphology is different (left nephrotic foci, a mixed pattern of mucinous tubular and spindle cell carcinoma (MTSCC) with papillary adenoma; right renal foci, papillary renal cell carcinoma (PRCC)). This was first reported in RCCs to the best of our knowledge. This case suggests that genotype analysis can be a powerful supplementary examination for clinical histopathological diagnosis. Gene detection has great significance for the accurate diagnosis and treatment of RCC metastasis or multiple lesions.

Ichthyosis Prematurity Syndrome: A Rare Form but Easily Recognizable Ichthyosis.

Project description:Ichthyosis prematurity syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive genodermatosis that is associated with mutations in the SLC27A4 gene. Its onset occurs in early childhood and presents with the clinical triad of premature birth, thick caseous desquamating epidermis, and neonatal asphyxia. Here, we describe a prematurely born baby patient (33 weeks of gestation) with a homozygous variant at the initiation codon site (c.1 A> G, p.Met1Val) in the SLC27A4 gene to raise awareness of this rare syndrome despite its distinctive features as we believe it is still underdiagnosed.

Case report: A novel PTCH1 frameshift mutation leading to nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome.

Project description:A patient presenting with several basal cell carcinomas, pigmented nevi, and developmental defects was diagnosed with nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome. Gene panel sequencing and Sanger sequencing were used to identify a novel heterozygous frameshift mutation, c.1312dupA:p.Ser438Lysfs, in exon 9 of PTCH1. I-Tasser and PyMol analyses indicated that the mutated protein patched homolog 1 (PTCH1) lacked 12 transmembrane domains and the intracellular and extracellular rings of ECD2 compared with the wild-type protein, resulting in a remarkably different structure from that of the wild-type protein. This case extends our knowledge of the mutation spectrum of NBCCS.

Mucoepidermoid carcinoma of the anterior lingual salivary gland: A rare case report.

Project description:Mucoepidermoid carcinomas (MECs) are rare head and neck malignant tumours that were originally considered to be benign. It has been estimated that ~20% of MECs in the major salivary glands, such as the parotid gland, and 50% in the several minor salivary glands found in the oral cavity, are malignant. The diagnosis of MECs is mainly based on ancillary and immunohistochemistry testing. However, owing to the difficulty in harvesting adequate material for histological examination, the histopathological diagnosis of intraoral MECs may be particularly challenging. We herein report a rare case of an 82-year-old patient who presented to the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery of Ryukyu University Hospital with complaints of a progressive swelling and pain in the ventral surface of the apex of the tongue. The patient had previously undergone needle biopsy and the histopathological analysis of the tumour suggested a diagnosis of irritation fibroma. To ensure a more accurate histopathological assessment, an incisional biopsy was performed, in addition to the haematological and radiological assessments. Examination of the obtained surgical specimen confirmed low-grade MEC of the anterior lingual gland. The tumour was surgically excised, the patient healed uneventfully and no recurrence was detected on the regular 3-year follow-up. Although MECs are relatively more common in the minor salivary glands of the oral cavity, they are a rare occurrence in the anterior lingual gland. Therefore, adequate histological material should be surgically harvested to perform a complete evaluation of the morphology and cytology of the tumour and ensure the accuracy of diagnosis.
