This pictorial essay presents the common radiological (mammography and/or ultrasonography) and pathological findings observed in unusual malignant breast lesions, which include well-differentiated subtypes of invasive ductal carcinoma not otherwise specified (tubular, mucinous, papillary, and medullary carcinomas), metaplastic carcinoma, and metastases. This study also includes ...

During recent years, there is an accumulating evidence that high grade ovarian carcinoma developed from the fallopian tube epithelial lesions. However, not yet completely understood and still represents subject of investigation. We investigated immunohistochemical phenotype matched tubes patients with different types malignancy grades carcinoma. Matched cancer were available in 260 cases, inclu...

The diagnosis of endometrial carcinoma requires histopathological confirmation. This diagnosis is made according to the WHO pathological classification. About 80% of endometrial carcinomas are of endometrioid type. Serous (5–10%), clear cell (1–5%), mucinous, mixed, squamous cell, transitional cell and undifferentiated carcinomas are other established subtypes. Endometrial carcinosarcoma is now...

We reviewed 43 fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) smears with abundant extracellular mucinous material to determine whether accurate classification of mucinous lesions is achievable on FNAB: 26 had carcinoma (pure colloid carcinoma [CCA], 23; mixed CCA/invasive ductal carcinoma [IDC], 3); 17 had benign lesions on follow-up (benign MLL, 6; fibrocystic change [FCC], 6; myxoid fibroadenoma [MFA]...

The aim of this study is to determine the value of surgical staging for the two histologic types (expansile or infiltrative) of apparent stage I mucinous ovarian carcinoma. We retrospectively analyzed patients treated from 1976 and 2016 for apparent macroscopic stage I ovarian mucinous carcinoma. Extra-ovarian disease and tumors that metastasized to the ovaries were excluded. Two expert patholo...

PURPOSE To investigate the antitumor effects of targeting Src and tubulin in mucinous ovarian carcinoma. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN The in vitro and in vivo effects and molecular mechanisms of KX-01, which inhibits Src pathway and tubulin polymerization, were examined in mucinous ovarian cancer models. RESULTS In vitro studies using RMUG-S and RMUG-L cell lines showed that KX-01 inhibited cell pro...

Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) of the pancreas is one of the two entities which come under the realm of non-inflammatory cystic lesions of the pancreas, the other one being mucinous cystic neoplasm. The clinco-pathological features of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm of the pancreas are unique. The patient had a long history of symptoms suggestive of chronic pancreatitis....
