SALTT study: A retrospective analysis of 111 SAlivary gland tumors of Lung and Tracheobronchial Tree.

Introduction: Primary pulmonary salivary gland-type tumours (PPSGT) are rare lung neoplasms arising from submucosal seromucinous glands in the central airway.

Methods And Results: We retrospectively analysed the clinicopathological features of 111 PPSGTs diagnosed at our institute between 2003 and 2021. The mean age at diagnosis was 43.

Study of the association of the known prognostic variables with EGFR expression in head and neck squamous cell carcinomas.

Context: : Head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCCs) are the sixth most frequent malignancy in the world. Epidermal growth factor receptors (EGFRs) are members of Erb B family of receptors. EGFR is known to act as a driver of tumorigenesis in various carcinomas.

Primary Breast Tumors with Mesenchymal Morphology.

Mesenchymal tumors of the breast are rare. Few epithelial tumors also have mesenchymal components. It is crucial to identify these as per histogenesis.

Role of Monocyte Count and Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio in Survival of Oral Cancer Patients.

 Inflammation seems to play a critical role in the development and progression of numerous cancers. Peripheral blood leukocyte count is an easily assessable parameter of systemic inflammatory response.  The aim of this study was to investigate whether the pretreatment leukocyte counts can predict the prognosis of patients with oral cavity cancer.

Plasmablastic transformation of plasma cell myeloma with heterotropic expression of CD3 and CD4: a case report.

Plasmablastic lymphoma (PBL) can rarely be seen as a transformation from plasma cell myeloma (PCM), especially in late stages of the disease where it portends a poorer prognosis and a different line of management for the patient. When unrelated to PCM, PBL is considered to be a separate aggressive variant of B-cell lymphoma typically seen in the oral cavity of immunocompromised adults. We describe a case of plasmablastic transformation having a pan T-cell phenotype with CD3 and CD4 positivity, in an immunocompetent elderly lady diagnosed with PCM.

Nomogram prediction for survival of patients with oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma.

Background: Nomograms are visual predictive tools that are widely used for estimating cancer prognosis. The purpose of this study was to develop a prognostic tool that will accurately predict overall survival (OS) in individual patients with oral cancer.

Methods: Medical records of 609 patients with cancer of the oral cavity were retrospectively analyzed.

T-cell Lymphoma of Thyroid Gland with Lennert Type of Morphology: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.

The rare entity of primary T-cell lymphoma of thyroid gland may pose great diagnostic and therapeutic challenges to the pathologist and clinician. There are very few case and short series reports of these tumors describing their varied clinicopathologic features in English literature. We report a case of mature T-cell lymphoma of thyroid in a 26 year old male, with unique pseudogranulomatous and lymphohistiocytic Lennert type of morphology, on a background of autoimmune thyroiditis.
