Metastatic carcinomas to the jaw bones are uncommon and comprise to about 1% of all malignant oral neoplasms. It may be the first indication of an unknown malignancy from a distant primary site which is usually associated with poor prognosis. We report a rare case of thyroid carcinoma metastatic to the mandible in a 76-year-old elderly male patient in which the lesion was asymptomatic. Microsco...

Metastasis to the oral region is very rare and accounts for less than 1% of oral malignant tumors. Breast, lung, kidney, adrenal, gastro intestinal tract and prostates are most common primary tumors from which metastasis to oral region occur frequently. Metastasis from thyroid gland is extremely rare to oral region. We present an unusual case of metastatic follicular carcinoma of thyroid in max...

the most common metastatic sites for colorectal carcinomas include the liver, lungs, brain, bones and peritoneal surfaces. in this report, a case of sigmoid colon carcinoma presented with cervical lymphadenopathy was detected with the help of pet/ct. a 57 year-old male presented with a complaint of swelling on the left side of his neck. ultrasonographic examination of the neck revealed three hy...

BACKGROUND Autofluorescence imaging is used widely for diagnostic evaluation of various epithelial malignancies. Cancerous lesions display loss of autofluorescence due to malignant changes in epithelium and subepithelial stroma. Carcinoma of unknown primary site presents with lymph node or distant metastasis, for which the site of primary tumour is not detectable. We describe here the use of au...

Adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) is an infrequent cause of malignancy that accounts for 1% of all tumors of the oral and maxillofacial region. We present a 59-year-old woman with a past medical history of adenoid cystic carcinoma of the left salivary gland treated with radiation and thoracotomy due to lung metastasis. Years after the onset of diagnosis, she presented with nonspecific gastrointest...

We describe a case of breast cancer metastatic to the superior oblique, in a male. The patient was a 66-year-old Caucasian male with a history of stage IIIB rectal adenocarcinoma and stage IIA left breast carcinoma diagnosed 12 years and 5 years prior, respectively, who presented with headaches and intermittent diplopia. He underwent left total mastectomy with sentinel lymph node biopsy 6 years...

Endometrial cancer is one of the most common gynaecological cancers in both United States and Russian Federation, rate continues to rise. Although early-stage endometrial associated with a favourable 5-year survival (96%), this patients distant metastases accounts for only 18%. A combination paclitaxel carboplatin standard first-line therapy advanced, recurrent metastatic carcinoma. Pembrolizum...

OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS The incidence of occult perifacial nodal disease in oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma is not well reported. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the incidence of isolated perifacial lymph node metastasis in patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma with a clinically node-negative neck. The study will shed light on current controversies and will provide valuable cli...

pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pnet) are uncommon pancreatic neoplasms, accounting for 1-2% of all pancreatic tumors. however, they have a better prognosis and long-term survival compared to exocrine pancreatic cancer. pnets can be divided into functional or non-functional based upon whether or not they excrete active substances relevant to specific clinical syndromes. skeletal muscle metast...

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is an aggressive malignancy which can metastasize to the bone. Long bones or the small bones of the limbs could be rarely the destinations for metastatic RCCs. We report two cases of metastatic RCC to the humerus bone with the initial presentation of pathological fracture. The pathologists must be aware of metastatic RCC to the arm and consider it in the differential ...
