Dysplasia-Carcinoma Transition Specific Transcripts in Colonic Biopsy Samples
BACKGROUND The early molecular detection of the dysplasia-carcinoma transition may enhance the strength of diagnosis in the case of colonic biopsies. Our aims were to identify characteristic transcript sets in order to develop diagnostic mRNA expression patterns for objective classification of benign and malignant colorectal diseases and to test the classificatory power of these markers on an i...
متن کاملParvimonasmicra bacteremia in a patient with colonic carcinoma
Background: Parvimonas micra is a gram-positive anaerobe and a part of the normal commensal flora of the gastrointestinal tract. Factors predisposing to anaerobic bacteremia include malignant neoplasms, periodontal disease, immune deficiencies, chronic renal insufficiency, decubitus ulcers and perforated abdominal viscus. Cases of Parvimonas bacteremia in a patient with esophageal carcinoma and...
متن کاملDiagnosis of colonic amebiasis and coexisting signet-ring cell carcinoma in intestinal biopsy
Amebiasis is uncommon in developed countries. Several case reports in the literature emphasize that both the presenting symptoms and the radiological findings of colonic amebiasis closely resemble more common conditions, such as idiopathic inflammatory bowel disease and gastro-intestinal malignancy. We describe a unique case of colonic amebiasis (amebomas) coexisting with signet-ring cell carci...
متن کاملDetection of PAX8-PPARG fusion transcripts in archival thyroid carcinoma samples by conventional RT-PCR.
The t(2;3)(q13;p25) occurs in a subgroup of follicular-patterned thyroid tumors and leads to a fusion of the genes encoding for the thyroid-specific transcription factor paired box 8 (PAX8) and the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ). Although initially discovered in follicular carcinomas (FTC), the fusion transcripts were also detected in a small fraction of follicular ade...
متن کاملColonic Lymphangiomatosis Resolved after Excisional Biopsy
Lymphangioma is an uncommon malformation of the lymphatic system that involves a benign proliferation of the lymphatics, with no established treatment method. Multiple colonic lymphangioma, or colonic lymphangiomatosis, is an extremely rare condition. We report a case of colonic lymphangiomatosis that was detected during a colonoscopic examination conducted as part of a general health check-up....
