The presence of Herpes Simplex Virus-type 2 (HSV type 2), Cytomegalovirus(CMV) and Adenovirus lgG antibodies was determined in sera from a total 144 patients with hematologic solid organ malignancies. HSV type-2 were detected using the EIA method antibody levels 34(48.5 %) ofthe 56(75.6 malignancies of90 (62.5 %). Anti-CMV IgG same serum samples complement fixation test.

PURPOSE The objective was to investigate the clinicopathological characteristics and the prognosis of prostate cancer patients affected by other primary malignancies. MATERIALS AND METHODS From 1990 to 2008, we retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 1,317 patients who underwent radical prostatectomy (RP) for prostate cancer. We assessed the effect of other primary malignancies on cli...

BACKGROUND Treatment with disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs) has raised concerns about the risk of malignancies in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. However, the association between biologic DMARDs (bDMARDs) and malignancy in previous reports remains controversial. Therefore we aimed to estimate the incidence of malignancy in early RA patients and to evaluate the relative risk of...

The etiology of cancer is multifactorial. Various factors, including physical carcinogens, chemicals and viral carcinogens affect patients with known predisposing factors who subsequently develop malignancies. Here is a retrospective study of 18 patients who developed rare malignancies in clinical situations like xeroderma pigmentosum, tuberous sclerosis, neurofibromatosis, hereditary multiple ...

Abstract Introduction We evaluated several biological indicators based on inflammation and/or nutritional status, such as systemic immune-inflammation index (SII), early warning score (ANDC) and prognostic (PNI) in hospitalized COVID-19 patients with without malignancies for a significance. Methodology This is retrospective observational study 186 SARS-CoV-2, who were diagnosed by real-time PCR...

Sarcomas are malignant tumors of mesenchymal origin. They comprise < 1% adult malignancies and about 15-20% pediatric malignancies. These subdivided into bone cartilage sarcomas soft tissue type. the maxillofacial region 5-10% all this part body. Usually do not originate from benign tumors. Among factors known to induce sarcoma growth are: genetic defects, exposure pesticides herbicides, ionizi...

background : cutaneous metastasis is defined as the spread of malignant cells from a primary malignancy to the skin. generally, cutaneous involvement from internal malignancies is uncommon. no reports have focused on the cutaneous metastasis profiles in egypt or the middle eastern population. in this study, we seek to determine the rates at which different internal malignancies give rise to cut...
