Testicular seminoma is a relatively common testicular cancer; however, testicular seminoma with pseudocyst is an extremely rare. The 'burned-out' phenomenon in germ cell tumors refers to a germ cell tumor in extra-gonadal tissues with spontaneous regression of an intra-gonadal tumor. We present a case of the testicular seminoma with pseudocyst and coagulation necrosis like burned-out tumor with...

most common tumors of the spleen are hematologic and lymphoid malignancies. non-lymphoid and non-hematologic tumors of the spleen are very rare, the most common of which are vascular tumors. this group of tumors in the spleen is composed of heterogeneous tumors such as hemangioma, angioendothelioma (ae), littoral cell angioma, and angiosarcoma. there are several histologic forms of ae such as e...

Sertoli cell tumors of the testis are extremely rare tumors with a heterogeneous pathology. Three histological variants have been described: Sertoli cell tumor not otherwise specified (NOS), large cell calcifying sertoli cell tumor and the Sclerosing Sertoli cell tumor. The sclerosing Sertoli cell tumor described herein is associated with prominent stromal sclerosis. They present as painless...

Background: large gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) represent a surgical challenge for complete en block resection, which is the mainstay strategy management. This study was done to determine long term oncological outcomes following resection of GISTs >10 cm. Material and methods: retrospective included 52 patients who underwent GIST Our main outcome overall survival along with predict...

Collision tumors are rare neoplasms displaying two distinct cell populations developing in juxtaposition to one another without areas of intermingling. They are rare entities with only 63 cases described in English literature. Tumors encountered are gastric adenocarcinomas colliding with lymphomas, gastrointestinal stromal tumors, squamous cell carcinomas, and neuroendocrine tumors. Their cell ...

DICER1, an endoribonuclease required for microRNA (miRNA) biogenesis, is essential for embryogenesis and the development of many organs including ovaries. We have recently identified somatic hotspot mutations in RNase IIIb domain of DICER1 in half of ovarian Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors, a rare class of sex-cord stromal cell tumors in young women. These hotspot mutations lost IIIb cleavage activi...
