Nested variant of transitional cell carcinoma (NV-TCC) of the bladder is a rare and relatively new entity. The tumor is aggressive contrasted by its benign histopathologic appearance, and characterized by irregular urothelial nests and/or tubules. Herewith, a case with exceptional osseous metaplasia is presented emphasizing its diagnostic difficulties, because it can be confused with benign diseases or conventional TCC.

Background: Polymorphisms of the folate-associated one-carbon metabolism (OCM) pathway genes may regulate certain susceptibilities to cancer. G80A, a polymorphism in the reduced folate carrier (RFC) gene, may be associated with cancer risk, although the results obtained from previous studies have been inconsistent.

Objectives: The present study aimed to evaluate the association of G80A with lung cancer among a Chinese population, and to examine the potential effect modifiers.

Background: In Ecuador, cervical cancer is the third most common cancer among women and the second most common cause of cancer-related death in women. Although HPV represents a serious public health problem worldwide, the information about its prevalence and genotypes in remote communities of Ecuador is limited. The aim of this study was to determine the distribution of HPV genotypes among ethnic minority women from two remote communities of the northwestern region of Ecuador: Afro-Ecuadorians and Chachis (Amerindian group).
