DNA Cytometry and Nuclear Morphometry in Ovarian Benign, Borderline and Malignant Tumors
BACKDROUND Ovarian carcinoma is a leading cause of death in gynecological malignancy. Ovarian surface epithelial serous and mucinous tumours are classified as benign, borderline, and malignant. The identification of borderline tumours most likely to act aggressively remains an important clinical issue. AIM This work aimed to study DNA ploidy and nuclear area in ovarian serous and mucinous; be...
متن کاملTHYROID FOLLICULAR ADENOMA: BENIGN OR MALIGNANT?
Four patients are described in whom a follicular carcinoma developed following thyroidectomy for a benign follicular neoplasm. It is possible that the initial thyroid neoplasm was a well- differentiated follicular carcinoma which was microscopically indistinguishable from a benign adenoma. Realizing this pathologic pitfall in thyroid diagnosis, the need for meticulous examination of the pa...
متن کاملLarge Mid-Esophageal Granular Cell Tumor: Benign Versus Malignant
Granular cell tumors are rare soft tissue neoplasms, among which only 2% are malignant, arising from nervous tissue. Here we present a case of a large esophageal granular cell tumor with benign histopathological features which metastasized to the liver, but showing on positron emission tomography-computerized tomography standardized uptake value suggestive of a benign lesion.
متن کاملDiffusion-Weighted MRI of Malignant versus Benign Portal Vein Thrombosis
OBJECTIVE To validate the diffusion-weighted MRI (DWI) for differentiation of benign from malignant portal vein thrombosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS The Institutional Review Board approved this retrospective study and waived informed consent. A total of 59 consecutive patients (52 men and 7 women, aged 40-85 years) with grossly defined portal vein thrombus (PVT) on hepatic MRI were retrospective...
متن کاملBenign versus malignant solid breast masses: US differentiation.
PURPOSE To investigate the general applicability and interobserver variability of ultrasonographic (US) features in differentiating benign from malignant solid breast masses. MATERIALS AND METHODS One hundred sixty-two consecutive solid masses with a tissue diagnosis were reviewed. Three radiologists reviewed the masses without knowledge of clinical history or histologic examination results. ...
