A Case Report of Primary Squamous Cell Cancer of Prostate
The primary squamous cell carcinoma of prostate is a rare tumor that its histogenesis has not been clearly identified. This tumor comprises 0.5 to 1 % of malignant tumors of prostate. In most cases, there exists a severe and atypical metaplasia. The case was a 66 years man that admitted for increased frequency of urination and a burning sensation. In initial examinations, because of the existe...
متن کامل68Ga–Prostate-Specific Membrane Antigen: A Potential Radiopharmaceutical in PET/CT To detect primary Cholangiocarcinoma
68Ga Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is an increasingly popular radiopharmaceutical tracer in prostate cancer and is becoming increasingly researched in other cancers such as breast cancer, renal cell carcinoma, glioblastoma multiforme, among others. Cholangiocarcinoma is the second most common primary hepatic malignant tumor; it is an aggressive tumor with a 5-year surviva...
متن کاملEffect of Hyperthermia on self-renewality of prostate cancer stem cells
Introduction: Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most prevalent malignant tumor in the male population worldwide and it is the second leading cause of cancer-related death in males. PCa is almost incurable due to the resistance of PCa to conventional treatments. Cancer stem cells (CSCs) theory suggests that a small subpopulation of cancer cells is responsible for tumor development, ...
متن کاملPeripheral Primitive Neuroectodermal Tumor of the Ovary: The Report of Two Rare Cases
Peripheral primitive neuroectodermal tumor (pPNET) is a highly aggressive small round cell tumor belonging to PNET/Ewing sarcoma family. Ovarian tumors composed of primitive neuroectodermal elements are extremely rare. Herein we reported two cases of peripheral primitive neuroectodermal tumors of ovary in two patients with different clinical presentations. Definite diagnoses were made bas...
متن کاملThe Role of radiobiological parameters on Tumor control probability (TCP) in prostate cancer
Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluation radiobiological modeling parameters on tumor control probability (TCP) for prostate cancer in three different models. These parameters included α⁄β ratios and cell surviving fraction at 2 Gy (SF2). Materials and Methods: The Poisson, equivalent uniform dose (EUD) and linear quadratic (LQ) models was used as...
