We report here an extremely rare case of proliferative Brenner tumor with borderline mucinous cystadenocarcinoma of the ovary, metastasizing to the pleura in a 75-year-old woman. Massive pleural effusion were present due to metastasis and pseudo-Meigs’ syndrome. The cytological findings from pleural effusion, ascites and tumor imprint were similar, suggesting mucus-producing malignant tumors. A...

We present a case of 59-year-old woman with clinical symptoms of a pelvic mass. She underwent an abdominal computed tomography (CT) scanning which demonstrated adnexal mass with solid and cystic components. The biopsy confirmed a malignant Brenner tumor. Then, a 18F-FDG PET/CT study was performed for disease staging and showed a high FDG uptake with heterogeneous distribution in solid component...

Several heat transfer problems related to singlewalled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) are considered through molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. MD simulations of thermal conductivity along a nanotube, isotope effect in longitudinal thermal conductivity, and thermal boundary resistance in a junction of nanotubes are reviewed. Then, the heat transfer from an SWNT to various surrounding materials is s...
