متن کاملEndoscopic ultrasound-guided fine needle biopsy of pancreatic metastasis from Merkel cell carcinoma.
Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a rare and aggressive cutaneous neuroendocrine carcinoma. The incidence rate is approximately 0.3–0.6/100000 per year [1,2]. At initial presentation most patients with MCC (70%–80%) have localized disease, and only a few (1%–4%) have distant metastases [3]. Moreover, MCC rarely metastasizes to the pancreas, therefore this represents a challenge for the differentia...
متن کاملMerkel Cell Polyomavirus Strains in Patients with Merkel Cell Carcinoma
We investigated whether Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) patients in France carry Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) and then identified strain variations. All frozen MCC specimens and 45% of formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded specimens, but none of the non-MCC neuroendocrine carcinomas specimens, had MCPyV. Strains from France and the United States were similar.
