Introduction: Almost all malignant tumors have the potential to eventually produce bone metastasis. The aim of the current study was to report the distribution pattern and imaging characteristics of bone metastases detected by conventional whole body bone scintigraphy in patients with different types of malignancies and to assess their relationship with the complain...

Evaluation of calcified metastatic lesions by conventional imaging can be challenging. Ovarian cancer metastases can present with calcification which might increase in size and number following therapy. It is not entirely clear whether these calcifications are associated with tumor response or disease progression. Calcified lesions which do not change in size or configuration are particularly p...

we report a case of prostatic adenocarcinoma, initially presenting with generalized lymphadenopathy, and mimicking lymphoma on flurodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (fdg pet/ct). our case suggests that in elderly men presenting with generalized lymphadenopathy, the diagnosis of metastatic prostatic carcinoma should not be overlooked even in the absence of typical ur...

Cancer is one of the leading causes death worldwide, with a mortality rate more than 9 million deaths reported in 2018. Conventional anti-cancer therapy can greatly improve survival however treatment resistance still major problem especially metastatic disease. Targeted increasingly used conventional to patients’ outcomes advanced and tumors. However, due complexity cancer biology metastasis, i...

Metastatic tumors account for 1% of all oral malignancies. Metastasis to jaw bones is common, particularly in the mandible, rare in the oral soft tissues, and account for only 0.1% of oral malignancies. The majority of metastatic cases (70%) reported in the literature have primary tumors located in the lung, breast, kidney, and colon. Metastasis is a biological complex process that involves det...

Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is a type II transmembrane protein, which is anchored in the cell membrane of prostate epithelial cells. It is highly expressed on prostate epithelial cells and strongly up-regulated in prostate cancer. Although, 177Lu-PSMA has been recently introduced for radionuclide therapy of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) with co...

Cancer of unknown primary (CUP) is metastatic cancer without a clinically detectable defined tumor site after an adequate diagnostic evaluation. It well recognized that CUP incidence occupies 1-5% all malignant epithelial tumors. Herein, we report case peritoneal carcinoma diagnosed as revealed by laparoscopic surgery.
