Primary mixed large cell neuroendocrine and high grade serous carcinoma of the endometrium.

Endometrial large-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma admixed with a high-grade serous (HGS) adenocarcinoma is extremely rare with only one reported case in the literature. We present the second reported case in a 47-year-old woman who presented with abdominal pain, distension and loss of weight. On examination she had a fixed pelvic mass and vascular left vaginal mass.

Invasive cervical adenocarcinoma arising from extension of recurrent vulval Paget's disease.

An 83-year-old woman with a long-standing history of both invasive and vulval extramammary Paget's disease (EMPD) was referred to a tertiary gynaecological oncology service for suspicion of contiguous extension to the vagina and cervix. Vaginal biopsies confirmed EMPD; however, a loop excision of the cervix demonstrated invasive adenocarcinoma arising from Paget's disease. The patient subsequently underwent laparoscopic radical hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy and radical upper vaginectomy, confirming FIGO stage 1B1 cervical adenocarcinoma.

Uterocutaneous fistula as the primary presentation of a gynaecological malignancy.

We report a case of high-grade gynaecological carcinoma presenting as a uterocutaneous fistula. A 59-year-old woman presented with a discharging abdominal wall wound. Imaging confirmed a large solid pelvic mass forming a sinus tract with the anterior abdominal wall.

Is FCH PET able to identify foci of infection superiorly to FDG PET?

We report a case of a brain abscess identified on fluorine-18 choline (FCH) positron emission tomography (PET) scan, which was not identified on fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET scan. To our knowledge, there are no previous case reports of incidental brain abscess identified by FCH PET imaging. A 51-year-old man, with liver cirrhosis complicated by hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) was enrolled in a research trial comparing HCC detection in FCH PET versus FDG PET.
