Lymphoepithelioma-Like Carcinoma of the Stomach with Epithelioid Granulomas
An 83-year-old Japanese man was admitted to our hospital for gastric adenocarcinoma mimicking a submucosal tumor in the gastric body. Considering his general condition, partial resection of the stomach and dissection of regional lymph nodes were performed; a dome-shaped tumor that was largely covered by normal mucosa and having a shallow central stellate ulcer was removed. Histopathologically, ...
متن کاملIdiopathic chronic eosinophilic pneumonia associated with noncaseating epithelioid granulomas.
A 34 year old Japanese woman was referred to our university hospital due to pulmonary opacities and bilateral hilar lymphadenopathy on chest X-ray. She also had uveitis, erythematous skin nodules, and oral and genital ulcers. Laboratory data showed eosinophilia in the circulation and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. Histological study revealed massive eosinophilic infiltration and noncaseating epi...
متن کاملEpithelioid granulomas in a patient with hepatitis C virus.
Hepatitis C virus infection causes an epidemic disease. The morphologic aspects of hepatitis C infection (HCV) are well established with regards to necroinflammatory processes and consequences like fibrosis, cirrhosis, and related neoplasms. However, the presence of epithelioid granulomas has not been well described for this infection. We report a patient with HCV and granulomas without any oth...
متن کامل5q Minus Myelodysplasia Associated with Multiple Epithelioid Granulomas within Conventional Renal Cell Carcinoma
A 69-year-old Caucasian female, with a previous diagnosis of 5q minus myelodysplastic syndrome, presented with conventional renal cell carcinoma (RCC) associated with multiple-epithelioid nonnecrotizing granulomas. Two previous reports of sarcoidosis, primarily involving the lung and skin, have been described in patients with 5q minus myelodysplasia. A cluster of closely linked genes encoding f...
متن کاملNongranulomatous interstitial pneumonitis in sarcoidosis. Relationship to development of epithelioid granulomas.
Nongranulomatous, nonspecific interstitial pneumonitis was a predominating or prominent histopathologic finding in 62 percent of 128 granuloma-containing specimens from open lung biopsies obtained from patients with sarcoidosis. Data from this study, combined with observations by others on the evolution of experimentally induced granulomas, indicate that interstitial pneumonitis represents a ve...
