Occult collision tumor of the gastroesophageal junction comprising adenocarcinomas with distinct molecular profiles.
Cancer Genet

Collision tumors, characterized by the coexistence of two unique neoplasms in close approximation, are rare and pose diagnostic challenges. This is particularly true when the unique neoplasms are of the same histologic type. Here we report such a case where comprehensive tumor profiling by next generation sequencing (NGS) as well as immunohistochemistry revealed two independent adenocarcinomas comprising what was initially diagnosed as a single adenocarcinoma of the gastroesophageal (GEJ) junction.

Department of Neurology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota.
Background: Adamantinomatous craniopharyngiomas (ACPs) are slow-growing, cystic, highly morbid central nervous system tumors located adjacent to vital structures including the pituitary, hypothalamus, and optic chiasm. Tumor recurrence is common. Treatment relies on resection with or without adjuvant radiation and is highly individualized.

J Neurosurg Case Lessons
January 2025
Departments of Neurosurgery, NYU Langone Health, New York, New York.
Background: Aneurysmal bone cysts (ABCs) are slow-growing, expansile bone tumors most often observed in the long bones and lumbar and thoracic spine. Anterior column ABCs of the spine are rare, and few cases have described their surgical management, particularly for lesions with extension into the odontoid process and the bilateral C2 pedicles. In the present case, the authors describe a two-stage strategy for resection of a symptomatic 2.

PLoS One
January 2025
Division of Hematology, Oncology and Palliative Care, Department of Internal Medicine, Virginia Commonwealth University School of Medicine, Richmond, Virginia, United States of America.
Background: Rigorous population-based assessments of the use of specialty palliative care (SPC) in the US are rare.
Settings/subjects: This study examined SPC use among cancer patients in a mid-sized metropolitan area in Southeast US.
Measurements: In this cancer decedent cohort study, data were acquired and linked from the state-wide cancer registry; state-wide hospital discharge dataset; and local SPC providers.
Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma with Medullary Features and a Complete Pathological Response After Neoadjuvant FOLFIRINOX: A Case Report and Literature Review.
J Gastrointest Cancer
January 2025
Department of Gastrointestinal Medical Oncology, Oncoclínicas, Florianópolis, SC, Brazil.
Purpose: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is an aggressive malignancy with poor response to chemotherapy. High-frequency microsatellite instability (MSI-H) is a rare biological phenomenon in conventional PDAC, being more frequently described in tumors with medullary or mucinous features.
Methods And Results: In this manuscript, we report the case of a patient with an MSI-H pancreatic carcinoma with medullary features (medullary carcinoma of the pancreas-MCP) that achieved a complete pathological response after neoadjuvant modified FOLFIRINOX.
