[Meningeal carcinomatosis in breast cancer: from diagnosis to treatment].

The appearance of meningeal carcinomatosis in breast cancer is an event that is being reported increasingly more frequently in the literature. It seems to be related with the lengthening of the patients' lives, improved sensitivity to diagnostic imaging and impermeability of the blood-brain barrier to the chemotherapeutic agents. It is an evolutionary form that affirms the metastatic invasion of the subarachnoidal space and is correlated with limited survival.

Successful management of synchronous recurrent breast carcinoma with chronic myelogenous leukemia: a case report.

Background: Survival is increasing after early breast cancer revealing frequent relapses and possibility of developing secondary malignancies. The concomitant occurrence of these two events is exceptionally disastrous and lethal. We report a case of a Moroccan woman who was successfully managed for synchronous recurrent breast carcinoma and chronic myelogenous leukemia.

Toxicities of docetaxel: original drug versus generics-a comparative study about 81 cases.

Introduction: Docetaxel is a chemotherapy drug widely prescribed in oncology that recognizes a variety of manufactured generics whose toxicity is increasingly reported. The aim of this study was to compare the toxicities between the original and a generics docetaxel in a Moroccan center.

Methods: In a cross sectional study, we enrolled patients treated with docetaxel from the oncology department of the military hospital of Rabat over a period of 2 years (2013-2014).

FOLFOX as Perioperative Chemotherapy of localized Gastric Cancer: Efficacy and Tolerance.

Background: Use of perioperative chemotherapy had significantly improved prognosis of localized gastric cancer. Two studies have validated this approach using cisplatin based chemotherapy despite important toxicities. We conducted this study with the aim to evaluate efficacy and toxicity of FOLFOX regimen in this setting.

Bone metastasis from malignant phyllodes breast tumor: report of two cases.

Background: Phyllodes tumors are rare fibroepithelial tumors accounting for less than 1 % of all breast neoplasms. They are malignant in 20 % of cases. Only a few cases of malignant phyllodes tumors metastatic to bone have been reported.
