BACKGROUND The occurrence of synchronous or metachronous renal cell carcinoma and pancreatic tumors has been described only in a few cases in the scientific literature. The study of double primary cancers is important because it might provide understanding of a shared genetic basis of different solid tumors and to detect patients at risk for secondary malignancy. METHODS In a combined analysi...

Thyroglossal duct cysts are the most frequently encountered congenital neck masses having a malignancy rate of 1%. The most common malignant form is papillary thyroid carcinoma. Synchronous papillary thyroid carcinoma developing in the thyroglossal duct cyst is rarely seen. Synchronized papillary carcinoma can be described as a multifocal tumor or a metastatic lesion on a thyroglossal duct cyst...

BACKGROUND The aim of this paper is to report a case of synchronous ovarian malignancy in a very young patient with early endometrial cancer who desired fertility-sparing management. CASE Twenty one-year-old patient presented with an apparent early stage endometrial cancer and desiring conservative management. After failure of conservative management for 3 years, surgery was performed. An inc...

BACKGROUND The appropriate application of Endoscopic modalities for polypectomy depends on the likelihood that the adenoma in question harbors invasive cancer. While prior studies have evaluated polyp size and morphology in assessing the risk of malignancy, in recent decay some authorities have paid more attention to dysplasia. All in all, the relative risk of cancer based on polyp distribution...

INTRODUCTION Benign Phyllodes Tumours (PTs) are rare fibroepithelial neoplasms that resemble fibroadenoma. But unlike fibroadenoma, benign PT can recur and both stromal & epithelial components can progress to malignancy. Contrary to earlier belief that benign PT is a stromal neoplasm and possibly arises from fibroadenoma, more recent molecular studies have suggested that both stroma and epithel...

Introduction: Patients with thyroid carcinoma have increased risk for development of second malignancy either synchronous or metachronous. We are reporting a rare case of synchronous squamous cell carcinoma oral tongue and papillary thyroid carcinoma. Case Report: A 60-year-old smoker male was presented with the complaints of non-healing ulcer (2x2 cm) at right anterolateral tongue since six mo...

Abstract Objectives The objective is to present the patterns of dual primary malignancies diagnosed at Pathology Laboratory Cancer Hospital with support from hospital-based cancer registry (HBCR), Sangrur, Punjab, India for years 2018 and 2019. Methods HBCR abstracts data electronic medical records. Trained staff cases in standard pro forma. Dual was coded as per International Agency Research o...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Malignant transformation of pheochromocytomas/paragangliomas (PCC/PGL) is a rare occurrence, and predictive factors for the same are not well understood. This study aims to identify the predictors of malignancy in patients with PCC/PGL. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed a retrospective analysis of 142 patients with either PCC or PGL registered at our institute between 200...

INTRODUCTION Extragenital malignant mixed Müllerian tumor is an extremely rare presentation of malignant mixed Müllerian tumor, especially when combined with a synchronous ovarian cancer. CASE PRESENTATION We report the clinical course and pathologic findings of a case of mesorectal malignant mixed Müllerian tumor with synchronous ovarian cancer, in a 50-year-old, gravida 0, para 0, Han Chine...
