Follow-up monitoring in a cat with leishmaniosis and coinfections with and ' Mycoplasma haemominutum'.

Case Summary: A 6-year-old female neutered domestic shorthair cat from Cyprus was presented with multiple ulcerated skin nodules. Cytology and histopathology of the lesions revealed granulomatous dermatitis with intracytoplasmic organisms, consistent with amastigotes of species. Biochemistry identified a mild hyperproteinaemia.

Weak stromal Caveolin-1 expression in colorectal liver metastases predicts poor prognosis after hepatectomy for liver-only colorectal metastases.

Loss of stromal Caveolin-1 (CAV1) expression is associated with poor prognosis in various cancers. We evaluated the prognostic value of CAV1 expression of both cancer cells and stromal cells in colorectal liver metastases (CRLM) in patients undergoing hepatectomy. In this retrospective study, 109 patients were enrolled.

Comprehensive Surgical Treatment as the Mainstay of Management in Retroperitoneal Sarcomas: Retrospective Study from Two Non-sarcoma Specialist Centers.

Background/aim: Complete resection, surgical expertise and individualization of patient management in comprehensive oncology centres result in better clinical outcomes in patients presenting with retroperitoneal sarcomas.

Patients And Methods: Clinical outcomes of primary and recurrent retroperitoneal sarcoma resections performed between January 2002 and December 2016 in two large surgical oncology, but non-sarcoma specialist centers, were reviewed to determine the efficacy of complete surgical resection as the principle instrument for treatment. The histological type, tumor size and grade, as well as organ resection, were recorded and subsequently reviewed.

Canine tick-borne pathogens in Cyprus and a unique canine case of multiple co-infections.

Canine tick-borne pathogens such as Ehrlichia canis and Hepatozoon canis are widespread in the Mediterranean basin but have never been reported or investigated in Cyprus. We describe herein the presence of canine tick-borne pathogens in three dogs with clinical signs compatible with vector-borne diseases from Paphos area of Cyprus. Molecular and phylogenetic analysis revealed the presence of E.
