Culture and postpartum mood problems: similarities and differences in the experiences of first- and second-generation Canadian women.

Purpose: Few studies have examined the role of culture in a woman's experience of postpartum mood problems (PPMP). This study explored differences and similarities in experiences of PPMP between first- and second-generation Canadian women.

Design: In this exploratory qualitative study, we interviewed nine first-generation and eight second-generation women who were clients of the Women's Health Centre at St.

Renal cell carcinoma with solitary metastasis to the bladder: mode of spread and prognosis.

Recurrent renal cell carcinoma (RCC) that presents as a solitary metastasis to the bladder is extremely rare. We report our experience with two patients who presented with hematuria within 1 year of their radical nephrectomy. Both patients underwent endoscopic resection of the tumor metastasis.

Solitary neurofibroma of the breast.

Neurofibromas are slow-growing, painless, benign nerve-sheath tumors. They occur most commonly in the dermis and subcutis and are rarely found in the breast. We report a rare case of a solitary neurofibroma of the breast in a 61-year-old asymptomatic woman.

Distinction of high-grade neuroendocrine carcinoma/small cell carcinoma from conventional urothelial carcinoma of urinary bladder: an immunohistochemical approach.

Context: High-grade neuroendocrine carcinomas and small cell carcinomas (HGNEC/SmCC) of the urinary bladder are uncommon but aggressive neoplasms. Differentiation of HGNEC/SmCC from high-grade urothelial carcinoma (UC) is based on histomorphologic features, but can be difficult in small biopsies and cases with mixed morphology.

Objective: We attempt to identify a limited immunohistochemical panel that aids in this distinction.
