Objectives: Lower uterine segment (LUS) involvement is encountered in a small proportion of endometrial cancer patients and is associated with aggressive histological features. Despite the available evidence, there seems to be a lack of consensus concerning its actual impact on disease related survival.
Study Design: The search strategy involved the Medline, Scopus, Clinicaltrials.
Objectives: Diaphragmatic stripping is a standard procedure that is performed in a significant proportion of patients undergoing surgical cytoreduction for advanced ovarian cancer. The objective of the present study is to evaluate morbidity and survival outcomes among patients offered diaphragmatic surgery for primary diagnosed optimally resected ovarian cancer.
Study Design: We conducted a retrospective cohort study, identifying patients that were offered surgery between 2016 and 2021 for primary diagnosis of ovarian cancer.
Article Synopsis
- Von-Hippel-Lindau (VHL) is a genetic disorder that leads to tumors and cysts in various organs, and this case discusses a 23-year-old woman with VHL who developed rare gastric neuroendocrine tumors (gNENs) while also suffering from chronic autoimmune gastritis (CAG).
- The gNENs observed in this patient showed characteristics similar to those typically seen in VHL-related tumors, despite gNENs not being commonly associated with VHL.
- The findings suggest that the formation of clear-cell gNENs might be influenced more by CAG rather than just VHL, highlighting the importance of careful monitoring of such tumors in patients before ruling out VHL disease
Urothelial cancer is a common neoplasm and metastatic disease correlates with a poor prognosis. Isolated adrenal gland metastases of urothelial carcinoma are quite rare, and management options can decide a patient's prognosis. Herein we report the case of a 76-year-old man with a metachronous solitary adrenal metastasis from a bladder carcinoma, who underwent adrenalectomy as part of his treatment.
