Synchronous laryngeal cancer.

Multiple primary cancers are usually defined as primary malignant tumors of different histological origins in one person. Synchronous cancers are defined as two or more primary cancers diagnosed in the same patient at the same time or within six months after identifying the first tumor, and those cancers that develop at more than a six-month interval are termed as metachronous multiple primary cancers. Our study comprised of a patient with synchronous laryngeal cancer with double localizations.

Kaposi's sarcoma of the larynx: case series.

Kaposi's sarcoma (KS) represents a type of cancer that usually arises on the skin and very rarely in other organs. KS-associated herpesvirus (KSHV), also known as human herpesvirus-8 (HHV-8) commonly arises in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Laryngeal involvement of KS is very rare.

HPV and Other Risk Factors Involved in Pharyngeal Neoplasm-Clinical and Morphopathological Correlations in the Southwestern Region of Romania.

Oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) development is strongly associated with risk factors like smoking, chronic alcohol consumption, and the living environment, but also chronic human papilloma virus (HPV) infection, which can trigger cascade cellular changes leading to a neoplastic transformation. The prevalence of these factors differs among different world regions, and the prevention, diagnosis, and prognosis of OPSCC are highly dependent on them. We performed a retrospective study on 406 patients diagnosed with OPSCC in our region that were classified according to the tumor type, localization and diagnosis stage, demographic characteristics, risk factors, and histological and immunohistochemical features.

Cutaneous Malignant Melanoma Metastatic to the Larynx and Trachea: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.

Malignant melanoma rarely develops in mucous membranes. Statistical data show that approximately 0.6-9.

Involvement of inflammatory cells in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps.

Inflammation plays an important role in the pathogenesis of nasal polyps. Understanding the biomolecular action mechanisms of inflammatory elements can contribute to improving the prognosis of these lesions. The study analyzed the distribution and immunohistochemically quantified eosinophils [eosinophil major basic protein (BMK-13)], lymphocytes [cluster of differentiation (CD) 4, CD8, CD20] and plasmocytes (CD138) in both the epithelial and stromal compartment in relation to composite scores, which included specific histopathological parameters for 50 sinonasal polyps.

Clinical, Histological and Immunohistochemical Evaluation of Larynx Cancer.

Unlabelled: Laryngeal cancer represents the malignant degeneration, of epithelial nature or from the connective tissue, which starts in the constitutive elements of the larynx. Cancer localization in the larynx represents between 1% and 3% of all malignant tumors and approximately 50% of ear, nose and throat (ENT) tumors. Squamous cell carcinoma is the most common form (around 95%) of laryngeal cancer, with high incidence in human males from southern and central Europe, Romania occupying one of the top places.

The importance of BMP6 marker within the process of epithelial-mesenchymal transition in the pleomorphic adenoma of the salivary gland.

The pleomorphic adenoma is the most frequently encountered tumor of the salivary glands, representing between 45% and 75% of the total number of the tumors of the salivary glands. According to the literature, there are many studies on the immunohistochemical aspects of the myoepithelial cells, present in the pleomorphic adenoma of the salivary gland. A big diversity of mono and polyclonal antibodies, such as the cytokeratins, muscular proteins and other markers, has been used.

Histopathological study of pleomorphic adenoma of salivary glands.

The pleomorphic adenoma, also known as mixed tumor, presents an epithelial and mesenchymal histological structure, being also called epithelioma with altered stroma. The pleomorphic adenoma has a frequency of 70% of major salivary gland tumors, being located preponderantly at the level of parotid gland (52-84%), at the level of submandibular glands (7-17%) and at the level of the other salivary minor salivary glands (3-8%). The purpose of our study was the histopathological analysis of 45 cases of pleomorphic adenoma.
