BACKGROUND/AIM Sentinel node (SN) is the first draining node from the malignant tumor site. In the last decade, sentinel node biopsy (SNB) has been introduced as an alternative to axillary dissection in breast cancer. I n patients with negative SNB (sentinel node uninvolved with malignancy) axillary dissection is not recommended. The aim of this stady was defining the indications for SNB, and S...

The serum concentrations of IgAp and IgMr associated secretory component (SIgA and SIgM) of 98 patients with neoplasms of the breast were measured. Of the 56 patients with carcinomas, 11 had increased concentrations of circulating SIgM, which was almost twice as sensitive as SIgA as a marker for carcinoma. Concentrations of circulating SIgA and SIgM were independent of expression of secretory c...

background & objectives: tubular adenomas are rare benign epithelial tumours of breast affecting predominantly females of child bearing age group. till now, very small number of cases have been reported in the literature. present study was carried out to evaluate the clinico-pathological features of tubular adenoma cases diagnosed during three years study period along with discussion of pos...

In recent years, the number of patients exhibiting multiple primary malignant neoplasms has been increasing. The current study reports the rare case of a 61-year-old Chinese female with eight histopathologically confirmed primary malignant neoplasms; to the best of our knowledge, such a high number of malignant neoplasms in one patient has not previously been described in the English literature...

Breast cancer (BC) is not a typical manifestation of Lynch syndrome. The existence and extent excessive breast risk in carriers pathogenic mutations the syndrome-associated genes (MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2) remains an open question. In addition, it known that some neoplasms patients with this syndrome are causally linked to hereditary mutation, arise completely independently defect gene DNA mismat...

Objective: Hematolymphoid neoplasms involving breast (HLNB) are rare with majority of lesions in being epithelial nature. There no characteristic clinical and radiologic features to distinguish carcinomas from HLNB. However, it is essential recognise lesion as hematolymphoid nature for appropriate patient management. This case series highlights clinical, radiologic, pathologic HLNB breast.&#x0D...

BACKGROUND The phyllodes tumour of the breast comprises about 0.5% of all neoplasms of the breast. CASE REPORT we present the case of a female patient (55 years old) suffering from giant phyllodes tumour (>10cm) of the left breast, who underwent Skin Reducing Mastectomy (SRM) and reconstruction with silicone breast implant (Bostwick Technique). DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION In selected patients...
