Metastatic mucinous ovarian carcinoma simulating lung primary: an integrated diagnostic lesson.

We herein document a rare instance of primary mucinous ovarian carcinoma metastatic to the left lung, whose deceptive secondary derivation was already envisaged according to the spectacular thromboembolism involving small pulmonary vessels, thereby realizing a centrifugal and centripetal metastatizing loop. This presentation was indicative of dismal prognosis. A multimodal biomarker key approach is herein emphasized, which included close clinico-pathologic data integration.

Partial trisomy of chromosome 13 as a single cytogenetic abnormality in an Italian case of nasal NK/T lymphoma.

Extranodal NK/T lymphoma, nasal type, is an uncommon neoplasm that occurs with a higher prevalence among Asian populations and Native American populations of Central and Southern America. In Western countries, this tumor is extremely rare, accounting for less than 1.5% of all non-Hodgkin lymphomas.
