Fallopian tube cytology as a diagnostic tool for adnexal malignancy: the CytoSaLPs score.

Introduction: During the past decade, the theory that high-grade extrauterine pelvic tumors originate from the fallopian tube has been strongly suggested. Our study aims to illuminate the possible role of tubal cytology as an accessory identification tool for gynecologic extrauterine malignancies, allowing in the long term the implementation of population-level cytologic tube evaluation during all benign gynecologic surgeries that do not result in salpingectomy.

Materials And Methods: We ex vivo collect salpingeal epithelial cells from the fibria directly from fresh fallopian tube specimens from women undergoing salpingectomy for any indication.

The Utility of Fallopian Tube Cytology in the Early Detection of Extrauterine Serous Gynecological Malignancies: A Narrative Literature Review.

Introduction: The aim of the study was to analyze the published evidence for the use of fallopian tube brush cytology for the early detection of extrauterine serous gynecological cancer.

Methods: We systematically searched the literature and, additionally, cross-checked on the bibliographies of selected articles. The inclusion criteria involved studies assessing the utility of fallopian tube brush cytology and its applications in the diagnosis, screening, or follow-up of extrauterine serous gynecological cancer.

Tall cell carcinoma with reversed polarity: A case report of a very rare breast tumor entity and mini-review.

Tall cell carcinoma with reversed polarity (TCCRP) is a very rare variant of carcinoma of the breast, resembling the tall cell variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma, first described in 2003, recently recognized as a separate entity in the 5th edition of the WHO (World Health Organization) Blue Book Classification of breast tumors with alternative terminology of tall cell variant of papillary breast carcinoma and solid papillary carcinoma with reversed polarity. Here, we report an additional case of this rare tumor in a 71-year-old woman, and the problems correlating with its diagnosis.

Primary Alveolar Rhabdomyosarcoma of the Breast in an Adult: An Extremely Rare Case.

Sarcomas of the breast constitute less than 1% of all malignant breast tumors and primary rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is a very rare entity with limited case reports in the literature. RMS is common in children and adolescents and rare in adults. Primary RMS arising from the breast is exceedingly rare in adults.

Coexistence of Gastric Cancer and Multiple Small Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors: Report of a Unique Case and Review of the Literature.

Background: In recent years, the synchronous occurrence of tumors of different histotypes arising in the same organ has been reported more frequently in the literature. The simultaneous development of adenocarcinoma and gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST) has been documented rarely.

Summary: The coexistence of primary gastric adenocarcinoma and GIST has been detected incidentally on gastric mucosa, serosa or occasionally intramurally, at surgery, or gastroscopy for other reasons.

Peritoneal Keratin Granulomatosis Associated with Endometrioid Adenocarcinoma of the Uterine Corpus in a Woman with Polycystic Ovaries: A Potential Pitfall-A Case Report and Review of the Literature.

Peritoneal keratin granulomatosis is a rare condition included under granulomatous lesions of the peritoneum. It can be secondary to neoplasms of the female genital tract and can mimic carcinomatosis intraoperatively. A case of a 40-year-old woman with a history of polycystic ovaries and a chief complaint of vaginal bleeding is presented.
