The Unprecedented Success of Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-Cell Therapy in the Treatment of Hematological Malignancies.

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) therapy is one of the most unprecedented advancements in the treatment of hematological malignancies, especially B-cell malignancies. The fundamental notion behind the success of this therapy is to generate a synthetic protein (CAR) capable of redirecting T lymphocytes to act against cancer cells. New insights into the genetic and molecular base of hematological malignancies have more recently given rise to the development of targeted treatments.

Extrarenal rhabdoid tumour of axillary soft tissue: a diagnostic challenge resolved by immunohistochemistry.

Extrarenal rhabdoid tumour of soft tissue in children is a rare tumour associated with poor prognosis. It is a heterogeneous group of aggressive tumours with distinct histopathological and immunohistochemistry findings. The tumour is characterised by diffuse proliferation of rhabdoid cells with hyaline like inclusion bodies.
