A peculiar case of Paget's disease of the breast.

Mammary Paget's disease is a disorder of the nipple-areola complex of the breast that, while rare, is often associated with an underlying carcinoma. The typical aspect is usually an eczematoid change of the nipple or a red and ulcerative nipple's lesion or erythematous and crusted lesion, with or without mass-like lesion and infiltration and inversion of the nipple. It was described at first by Sir James Paget in 1874, [1] who classified the disease in mammary and extramammary type.

An encapsulated oncoytic neoplasm of follicular origin of thyroid, expressing neuroendocrine markers. A case report and literature review.

A case is reported of an oncocytic tumor of the thyroid expressing simultaneously follicular and neuroendocrine markers, but not calcitonin. The data reported in the literature and the possible relationships of these lesions with the calcintonin-negative medullary carcinomas were examined.

A rare neurendocrine tumor of the lung: sclerosing paraganglioma. A neoplasm that is difficult to diagnose and a source of dangerous pitfalls. A case report and literature review.

An endobronchial obstructing neoformation was found in a 58-year-old man. The histology and immunohistochemical profile oriented the authors towards a diagnosis of paraganglioma, sclerosing variant. This very difficult diagnosis, especially in a pulmonary localization, may lead to erroneous conclusions both in terms of histogenetic interpretation and that of its biological behavior.

Clinical and Immunohistochemical Features of Oral Angioleiomyoma: A Comprehensive Review of the Literature and Report of a Case in a Young Patient.

Angioleiomyoma (AL) is an uncommon benign soft tissue neoplasia arising from the tunica media of the smooth muscle cells. AL appears as a solitary and slow-growing mass and seldom is observed in oral tissues. We reported a rare case of AL involving the cheek of a 17-year-old young woman.

Ultrastructural observations on inflammatory angiogenesis in gastric carcinomas with massive neutrophil infiltration.

Neutrophils are traditionally thought of as terminal effectors of inflammatory reaction, but experimental studies suggest that they play a direct role in the inflammatory angiogenesis of tumors. Thus, further evidence in humans is required regarding the mechanisms by which neutrophils induce tumor angiogenesis. In this study, 4 cases of human gastric carcinomas with massive neutrophil infiltration were studied by light and electron microscopy, focusing on the inflammatory angiogenesis in the tumor stroma.
