Synchronous colorectal and renal cancers: Case report and literature review.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Even though colorectal cancer is one of the most frequent in the world, its simultaneous presence with other neoplasms, such as renal, is still rare in incidence. This article aims to report and expose a literature review of the synchrony of colorectal cancer and renal carcinoma.

Presentation of case

A 57-year-old female patient complaining of diffuse abdominal pain that worsened with food and improved with evacuation, especially in the periumbilical region and right iliac fossa, from moderate to strong intensity, starting 1 year ago, worsening in the last 3 months. An abdominal CT scan was performed, showing a lesion in the right kidney and a narrowing of the ascending colon lumen. Due to the possibility of cure, we opted for right colectomy and right nephrectomy at the same surgery.

Discussion

Synchronous tumors are neoplasms in which the diagnostic interval is up to 6 months, and must be differentiated from metachronic neoplasms and even metastases between tumors. The incidence of synchronous colorectal and renal cancer is rare but appears to be divergent.

Conclusion

The presence of synchronous tumors can be evidenced in imaging tests, such as CT scan, but appropriate diagnostic tests for each neoplasm, such as colonoscopy, should not be ruled out. The treatment of choice must be surgery, when possible, with the options of conventional access, videolaparoscopic and robotic surgery.

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.

Clear cell renal carcinoma synchronous with dedifferentiated liposarcoma: a case report and review of the literature.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Multiple primary malignant neoplasms are not frequent but are increasing in incidence. Some of them are associated with genetic syndromes such as von Hippel-Lindau syndrome and Li-Fraumeni syndrome. Dedifferentiated liposarcoma is one of the rarest soft tissue tumors, and clear cell renal carcinoma is the most frequent kidney cancer. The concomitant presence of these tumors is extremely rare; however, some cases have been reported, none of them presenting with liposarcoma of the limbs. We report an interesting case of a patient with synchronous multiple primary tumors presenting with a very rare liposarcoma associated with renal cell carcinoma (a very rare association). A review of the literature and a collection of similar cases published previously are also provided. CASE PRESENTATION:We report a case of a 62-year-old Hispanic man who presented to our institution with a left thigh mass compatible with dedifferentiated liposarcoma synchronous with metastatic clear cell renal carcinoma. Multiple treatment lines were provided with no response, with a further metastatic transformation. Genetic analysis by liquid biopsy showed some mutations that were not susceptible to targeted therapy. At the time of this report, the patient is undergoing palliative care because his nonresponsive metastatic disease persists. CONCLUSIONS:We present the first reported case of clear cell renal carcinoma synchronous with dedifferentiated liposarcoma of a limb. The association between renal cell carcinoma and dedifferentiated liposarcoma is unusual, and there are few reports of this presentation in the literature. More research about these tumors along with genetic tests needs to be performed to seek a better understanding of the fundamental basis of this rare association.

Ipsilateral synchronous clear and papillary renal cell carcinoma: A case report and review of the literature.

Project description:Clear cell renal cell carcinoma and papillary renal cell carcinoma are the most common types of renal tumors. However, coexistence of both tumors in the same kidney is a rare condition. We report a 56-year old male who was found to have ipsilateral synchronous clear cell and papillary renal cell carcinoma in the left kidney. Review of related literature is provided to estimate the prevalence of similar cases.

Multiple synchronous primary malignant neoplasms: A case report and literature review.

Project description:Multiple primary malignant neoplasms (MPMN) are defined as two or more primary malignancies diagnosed in an individual. There is no association between these cancers, which can be classified into synchronous and heterochronous cancers depending on the time of diagnosis. The present study presented a rare case of bilateral breast, endometrial, cervical and ovarian cancers. Through thorough physical examination, pathology and immunohistochemistry, it could be determined that bilateral breast, endometrial and cervical cancers were primary malignant tumors and that ovarian cancer cannot be excluded as a result of metastasis. the present study also summarized the definitions, risk factors, prevalence characteristics, diagnostic ideas and treatment options for MPMN by reviewing the literature.

Synchronous gallbladder adenocarcinoma and gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumor: Case report and literature review.

Project description:INTRODUCTION:Synchronous occurrence of different types of neoplasms is not very frequent, representing around 6% of all cases of cancer. Usually there is a lack of information on how to treat these patients, especially when both types of cancers are also uncommon. No cases of synchronous gallbladder adenocarcinoma and gastric gastrointestinal stromal tumor have been published before. PRESENTATION OF CASE:We present the case, management and follow-up, of a 66-year-old female with incidental diagnosis of a pT2NxMx gallbladder adenocarcinoma after elective cholecystectomy that latter, during staging, was also diagnosed with GIST. Total gastrectomy, wedge resection of the liver and lymphadenectomy were performed due to the new findings. Adjuvant chemotherapy for 36 months was indicated. After 16 months of the treatment she has no signs of recurrence. DISCUSSION:Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) had a turnaround in the end of the 20th century after the introduction tyrosine-kinase inhibitor to the adjuvant treatment and now the trend is to extend it up to 36 months in selected patients. Gallbladder adenocarcinoma is an uncommon cancer but the incidental diagnosis is increasing with the popularity of laparoscopic cholecystectomy and, thus, specific management should be offered for these patients, what frequently includes a complementary surgery. Although, GISTs may be associated with another synchronous tumor in 20% of the cases, the simultaneous occurrence with gallbladder cancer is incredibly rare. CONCLUSION:Simultaneous occurrence of gastric GIST and gallbladder adenocarcinoma has not been reported before and, thus, any information about it may help in the management of those patients.

Adult renal neuroblastoma: A case report and literature review.

Project description:Adult renal neuroblastoma (NB) is extremely rare, and there have been only a few cases previously described in the literature. We report a case of adult renal NB and summarize the clinical and imaging features of the reported cases.A 41-year-old female was admitted to our hospital with a chief complaint of gross hematuria that had persisted for a month. Nonenhanced computed tomography (CT) revealed a hypodense right renal mass without calcification. Enhanced CT showed an infiltrative, heterogeneously enhancing right renal mass with retrocaval lymphadenopathy and right renal vein thrombus. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed that the right renal mass was isointense relative to the renal parenchyma on nonenhanced T1-weighted images; it showed mixed hypointensity and hyperintensity on T2-weighted images, and heterogeneous enhancement with a hyperintense rim on fat-saturated, enhanced T1W images. The initial impression was renal cell carcinoma (RCC).Adult renal neuroblastoma.Right nephroureterectomy with lymph node dissection was performed. The pathology and immunohistochemistry confirmed the diagnosis of renal NB with retrocaval lymphadenopathy and retroperitoneal metastasis.After surgery, the patient received 6 courses of chemotherapy, and no recurrence was observed during a 24-month follow-up period.The clinical picture of adult renal NB is that of a 44-year-old woman, presenting with an abdominal or renal mass about 13cm in size, accompanied by hypertension, hematuria, or pain. In contrast to CT features described in previous literature, no tumor calcification is mentioned in these adult renal NB cases. It is difficult to differentiate renal NB from RCC based on CT or MRI. However, biopsy, urinary catecholamine levels, and metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) scan may aid in presurgical diagnosis.

Chromophobe renal cell carcinoma: A case report and literature review.

Project description:IntroductionChromophobe renal cell carcinoma, a distinct subtype of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with characteristic light microscopic, histochemical, and ultrastructural features, typically has a favorable clinical course.Presentation of caseA 45-year-old femele presented with abdominal pain. A physical examination found a palpable mass in the left upper quadrant of the abdomen. A CT scan of the abdomen showed a heterogeneously enhancing mass, with necrosis and calcifications contents betwen the liver and the right kidney. she underwent surgical resection. Partial nephrectomy was performed. Pathological diagnosis was Chromophobe renal cell carcinoma.Discussion and conclusionChromophobe RCC is a rare variety of kidney neoplasm that has recently been better characterized from a molecular and genetic perspective. Overall, it is considered to have a better prognosis, and is associated with earlier stage tumors and longer overall survival compared with clear cell RCC.
