RATIONALE Myoepithelial carcinoma mainly occurs in the salivary glands, but myoepithelial carcinoma of the lung is extremely rare neoplasm whose biological behavior and clinical course still remain to be fully elucidated. Although considered as low-grade carcinoma, these tumors have a high rate of recurrence or distant metastasis. PATIENT CONCERNS To date there are only 11 cases of pulmonary ...
Epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma (EMC) of the lung is rare and is considered to be low-grade malignancy. Intracranial metastasis of pulmonary EMC has not previously been reported according to our search of the literature. We report a case of skull metastasis as the initial manifestation of pulmonary EMC. An 81-year-old man complained of left leg motor weakness. Neurological examination showed...
Hybrid carcinoma of the salivary gland is a very rare entity that has been described only in the parotid and palate. The occurrence of a hybrid carcinoma of maxillary sinus has not been reported. The diagnosis of hybrid carcinoma is important particularly when the components of tumor have different biologic behaviors. Diagnosis and treatment require a high index of suspicion, especially when th...
The urokinase-system has been implicated in tumor spread. The serine protease urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA), its receptor (uPAR) and its inhibitor (PAI-1) are involved in the control of extracellular turnover, cell migration, invasion, cell signalling, proliferation, apoptosis and angiogenesis leading to a variety of different responses, under both physiological and pathological co...
BACKGROUND Myoepitheliomas are uncommon salivary gland neoplasms consisting entirely or predominantly of cells with myoepithelial phenotype. They commonly involve the parotid gland and the minor salivary glands of the palate. AIM A case of plasmacytoid myoepithelioma of the hard palate is described. CASE DESCRIPTION AND RESULTS A 55-year-old woman presented to her oral surgeon with a tumor ...
An immunocytochemical method for fixed and paraffin-embedded human breast biopsies is reported for the detection of myoepithelial and epithelial cells using antibodies to myosin and keratin, respectively, and of basement membranes using antibodies to laminin and type IV collagen. Using these markers, myoepithelial cells can be clearly distinguished in the normal breast and in the benign breast ...
The normal duct-lobular system of the breast is lined by two epithelial cell types, inner luminal secretory cells and outer contractile myoepithelial cells. We have generated comprehensive expression profiles of the two normal cell types, using immunomagnetic cell separation and gene expression microarray analysis. The cell-type specificity was confirmed at the protein level by immunohistochemi...
AIMS Epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma (EMC) is a rare malignant salivary gland neoplasm that most commonly occurs in the parotid gland, but can also arise in the minor salivary glands. Three cases are reported of epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma of the minor salivary glands, with the goal of better defining this entity. PATIENTS AND METHODS All three cases showed a characteristic nodular/...
