Carcinosarcoma of the Uterine Corpus with Alpha-Fetoprotein-Producing Hepatoid Adenocarcinoma: A Report of Two Cases
We report two cases of uterine carcinosarcoma associated with alpha-fetoprotein (AFP)-producing hepatoid adenocarcinoma. Samples were obtained from two women aged 63 and 82 years. Serum AFP levels of the two samples were 10,131 and 401 ng/ml, respectively. Histologically, in both cases the tumor cells were composed of hepatoid adenocarcinoma component and sarcoma component including rhabdomyosa...
متن کاملalpha Fetoprotein producing early gastric cancer with liver metastasis: report of three cases.
Three cases of alpha fetoprotein producing early gastric cancer are presented. Liver metastases occurred in all patients shortly after curative gastrectomy and all died within two years. The incidence of liver metastasis was significantly higher than that in alpha fetoprotein negative early gastric carcinoma (p less than 0.001). The incidences of lymph node metastasis and invasion in lymph vess...
متن کاملNovel characteristics of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP)-producing gastric cancer
Background Although serum AFP level is increased in the AFP-producing gastric cancer (GC) patient, AFP-producing GC may become recurrent without re-elevation of serum AFP level. Therefore, novel characteristics of AFP-producing GC such as other biomarkers are to be explored. Results 35 AFP-GC and 48 non-AFP-GC patients were included. Our present study revealed that blood type O (15 cases, 42....
متن کاملClinicopathological Characteristics of Alpha-Fetoprotein-Producing Gastric Cancer
PURPOSE α-fetoprotein (AFP)-producing gastric cancer is a rare tumor with high rates of liver metastasis and a poor prognosis. Many studies have been performed but there have been no comprehensive investigations of the clinicopathological and prognosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS Six hundred ninety four patients with gastric cancer who underwent a curative gastric resection in Hanyang University H...
متن کاملClinicopathologic and prognostic characteristics of alpha-fetoprotein–producing gastric cancer
Alpha-fetoprotein-producing gastric cancer (AFPGC) accounts for 1.5%-7.1% of all gastric cancer cases. Compared with other types of gastric cancer, AFPGC is more aggressive and prone to liver and lymph node (LN) metastasis, with extremely poor prognosis. To improve understanding of AFPGC we reviewed a consecutive series of 82 AFPGC patients and investigated the prognostic factors. The incidence...
