Background Pancreatic intraductal papillary mucinous carcinoma with peritoneal carcinomatosis is regarded as an unresectable disease for which only palliative chemotherapy or supportive care is recommended. Applying cytoreductive surgery with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy on patients with intraductal papillary mucinous carcinoma with peritoneal carcinomatosis remains controversial. ...

Tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) were evaluated in many cancers like ovarian tumors, endometrial colon cancer and melanoma. Now there is increasing trend evaluating TILs breast cancer. gives the patients immune response to tumor. 100 cases of Modified radical mastectomy specimen chosen from surgical pathology records. The representative formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue samples colle...

CONTEXT Heterotopic pancreas is defined as the presence of pancreatic tissue, outside its usual location, which lacks anatomical and vascular continuity with the pancreas proper. Despite the development of modern diagnostic procedures, it is still difficult to differentiate heterotopic pancreas from benign or malignant tumors and other tumor-like lesions. Frozen examination of mucinous lesions ...

The co-existence of breast carcinoma and lymphoma in the axillary lymph nodes, without a history of previous chemotherapy or radiotherapy is rarely described. We present a case of a 50-year-old female with right breast mass, proved by pathological examination to be invasive mucinous carcinoma. Examination of the axillary lymph nodes as axillary clearance showed concomitant small lymphocytic lym...

Breast carcinoma; Modiied Radical Mastectomy; Ductal carcinoma; Medullary features; Lobular; Mucinous. Background: Carcinoma of breast has become the major public health problem among females in developing as well as developed countries. In Nepal it comprises 6% of total cancers cases and often diagnosed at advanced stage. Surgical removal or modiied radical mastectomy (MRM) is the most commonl...

This is a brief case report of invasive multicentric mucinous adenocarcinoma presented at a rather young age with bronchorrhea and persistent consolidation that ended up with the patient demise; nevertheless, we demonstrate relevant radiological and pathological features with emphasis on the new classification of bronchioloalveolar carcinoma, a term that should no longer be in use.

Widespread use of cross-sectional imaging and increasing age of the general population has increased the number of detected pancreatic cystic lesions. However, several pathological entities with a variety in malignant potential have to be discriminated to allow clinical decision making. Discrimination between mucinous pancreatic cystic neoplasms (PCNs) and nonmucinous pancreatic lesions is the ...

Secretory carcinoma (SC) is a rare recently described entity that has characteristics similar to those of secretory breast carcinoma. We report case 23 years old male with swelling on the parotid gland. The ultrasonography guided fine needle aspiration cytology was performed mass. Cytologically, background aspirate composed inflammatory cells admixed mucinous material. There were isolated as mu...

INTRODUCTION Mucinous tumors are the second most common form of epithelial ovarian tumor, yet the cell of origin for this histologic subtype remains undetermined. Although these tumors are thought to arise through a stepwise progression from benign cystadenoma to borderline tumor to invasive carcinoma, few studies have attempted to comprehensively characterize the genetic changes specific to th...

Colorectal carcinoma is a major cause of cancer associated with a high rate of morbidity and mortality in the western world. One of the pathologic features considered to be important for prognostic is mucin production. Many authors confirmed that colon carcinomas with high mucin content tend to re-occur locally and carry a poor prognosis. For histochemical evaluation of mucin content, we invest...
