Danish MMR vaccination coverage is considerably higher than reported.

Introduction: The Danish childhood vaccination programme offers protection against measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR). Nevertheless, many children appear to be unvaccinated according to the national registers. The aim of this study was to estimate the MMR1 vaccination coverage based on a medical record review of children whose vaccination status is negative according to the register-based data.

Goblet cell carcinoids: characteristics of a Danish cohort of 83 patients.

Background: Appendiceal goblet cell carcinoids (GCCs) exhibit neuroendocrine and adenocarcinoma features.

Patients And Methods: Analysis of demography, pathology, prognostic markers, treatment and survival in 83 GCC patients (f/m: 56/27) diagnosed 1992-2013.

Results: Median age for f/m was 59/58 years, respectively, and similar for localized and disseminated disease.

Goblet cell carcinoids of the appendix.

Goblet cell carcinoid (GCC) tumors are a rare subgroup of neuroendocrine tumors almost exclusively originating in the appendix. The tumor most often presents in the fifth or sixth decade with a clinical picture of appendicitis or in advanced cases an abdominal mass associated with abdominal pain. Histologically tumors are most often positive for chromogranin A and synaptophysin, however, less homogenous than for classic appendix carcinoids.

Goblet cell carcinoid in a patient with neurofibromatosis type 1: a rare combination.

Neuroendocrine tumors are rare tumors primarily located in the gastrointestinal tract. Goblet cell carcinoid is a rare subgroup of neuroendocrine tumors located in the appendix. Neurofibromatosis type 1 is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by a mutation in the NF1 gene.
