Comprehensive Analysis of Somatic Mutations in Colorectal Cancer With Peritoneal Metastasis.

Background: To analyze for genetic mutations which may presage peritoneal metastasis by using targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS).

Materials And Methods: Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded primary tumor specimens were obtained from 10 patients with small obstructing colorectal cancer and peritoneal metastasis (group A) and five with large non-obstructing colorectal cancer and no recurrence (group B). DNA was extracted for the sequencing of 409 cancer genes.

Intraarticular osteochondroma of shoulder: a case report.

Osteochondroma is a cartilage-capped osseous protrusion that arises from the surface of a bone. Osteochondroma occurs mostly in the metaphysis of long tubular bones such as the femur, tibia, and humerus. Osteochondroma is rare in the diaphysis and in the epiphysis.
