Background: Pituitary adenoma is infrequent during pregnancy. As surgery for pituitary adenoma is hazardous, further complicated by physiological changes brought by pregnancy. Mostly such cases were managed with medical therapy. As surgical adenoma decompression during pregnancy represent a therapeutic challenge for decompression without producing any further stress to pregnant women and terato...

Pleomorphic adenoma is the most common salivary gland tumor. also known as benign mixed Most commonly affected site parotid gland. It may occur in other major glands (submandibular and sublingual glands), lacrimal minor glands. arises a painless, firm swelling, slowly growing oral cavity. triphasic tumor that occurs epithelial, myoepithelial, chondromyxoid stroma. Complete surgical resection wi...

We investigated the risk factors for adenoma occurrence at surveillance colonoscopy, especially focusing on patient characteristics, including metabolic factors.Surveillance colonoscopy intervals depend on baseline adenoma characteristics. However, patients' characteristics may also influence the occurrence of adenomas.Of 62,171 asymptomatic subjects who underwent colonoscopy for a health check...

Adenoma malignum is a rare subtype of cervical adenocarcinoma. Clinical presentation is variable with watery vaginal discharge being the most commonly associated finding. We report a case of adenoma malignum incidentally detected on pelvic computed tomography (CT) performed for a trauma patient. The cervical mass was further characterized by magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and remained compatib...

Ampullary adenoma is a common indication for endoscopic papillectomy. Ampullary neuroendocrine tumor (NET) is a rare disease for which complete surgical resection is the treatment of choice. However, because of the morbidity and mortality associated with surgical resection, endoscopic papillectomy is increasingly used in selected cases of low grade, with no metastasis and no invasion of the pan...

INTRODUCTION Pleomorphic adenoma is the most common benign neoplasm of the salivary glands. Extensive lipomatous involvement of the tumor is, however, a very rare finding. CASE REPORT Herein, a rare case of lipomatous pleomorphic adenoma arising in the parotid gland of a 14-year-old Japanese woman is presented. CONCLUSION This is the sixth case of lipomatous pleomorphic adenoma in the Engli...

We report a case of a 64-year-old woman who underwent left adrenalectomy with removal of a 8,5 cm clinically non-functioning adrenocortical adenoma and a 4-cm myelolipoma. Molecular testing for viral infection demonstrated the presence of cytomegalovirus (CMV) DNA sequences in the adrenal adenoma, but not in the myelolipoma (confirmed by immunohistochemistry). Moreover, the adrenal adenoma was ...

Primary pleomorphic adenoma of the lung is a type of pulmonary adenoma that is extremely rare, and it predominantly occurs in the proximal airway. We recently experienced a case of a peripheral solitary pulmonary nodule that was discovered on the CT scans. We performed wedge resection with video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery and we firmly diagnosed this lesion as pulmonary pleomorphic adenoma ...

Figure: benign, well-limited hepatocellular tumor with major haemorrhagic foci and telangiectasia on histology. Beside Focal Nodular Hyperplasia and hepatocellular adenomas, the most frequent benign hepatocellular lesion in the liver, a variant, initially called «telangiectatic focal nodular hyperplasia» now claimed as “telangiectatic adenoma” has been described recently. Initially observed in ...
