Imatinib mesylate is an effective, small-molecule, selective tyrosine kinase inhibitor, which inhibits BCR-ABL in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia, c-kit gastrointestinal tumor (GIST), and platelet-derived growth factors hypereosinophilic syndrome. Above all, bone marrow necrosis a rare complication of imatinib usage. If newly developed increased opacity lesions are seen metastatic GIST, ...

introduction: breast cancers in the early phase frequently undergo distant metastasis and survival of patients is greatly dependent on distant metastasis. the occurrence of micrometastasis has been suggested to relate with prognostic features of breast cancer, such as lymph node metastasis and the presence of vascular invasion. the aim of this study was to examine the presence of keratin-19 mrn...

Bone is a common site of metastasis for various types cancer cells, including breast cancer, and the consequent skeleton-related events observed in patients are severe often fatal. Currently, it widely accepted that cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) confer metastasis-promoting property to cells. Furthermore, clinical observations suggest CAFs mediate bone tropism metastatic Therefore, deeper...

Implantation metastasis occurs when tumor seeds into a wound or tissue by a significant amount of viable tumor cells. Here we describe the case of a 30-year-old man suffering from pain and swelling of the foot, which was misdiagnosed as a bone cyst. Surgery was performed involving curettage followed by bone grafting. After surgical pathology, the exact diagnosis was revealed as the synovial sar...

Bone is the most frequent metastasis site for breast cancer. As well as dramatically increasing disease burden, bone metastases are also an indicator of poor prognosis. One main challenges in investigating cancer engineering vitro models that replicate features vivo environments. Such ideally enable biology metastatic cells to mimic their behavior closely possible. Here, taking benefit cutting-...

Skeletal metastases are frequent complications of many cancers, causing bone (fractures, pain, disability) that negatively affect the patient’s quality life. Here, we first discuss burden skeletal in cancer metastasis. We then describe pathophysiology Bone metastasis is a multistage process: long before development clinically detectable metastases, circulating tumor cells settle and enter dorma...

the primary carcinoma may secondarily invade bone tissue through direct extensions, blood circulation or lymphatic transportation particulary when it is arising from breast, prostate, kidney, thyroid and lung. metastatics tumors of bone are more common than primary tumor of bone. the most common tumor, which metastasizes into bone, is the breast adenocarcinoma. some metastatic tumors of bone in...
