Published: January 1988

We describe a case of primary myxoid chondrosarcoma of the thyroid gland that occurred in a 68-year-old man. To our knowledge, this is the first case of such a tumor reported in the english literature under this name.

Myoepithelial tumours are rare and distinct entities with uncertain histogenesis. They occur primarily in major salivary glands and soft tissue around the head and neck. Bony involvement predominantly occurs in facial bones.

The aim of this study is to elucidate the disparities in survival and risk factors among different subtypes of liposarcoma, through analysis of epidemiological and prognostic data. The study cohort consisted of 12,822 patients diagnosed with liposarcoma in the United States between 2000 and 2021, whose data were retrieved from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) program. The prognosis for different subtypes of liposarcoma and the associated factors such as age, tumor stage, intervention, gender, tumor grade, location, size, chemotherapy and radiotherapy, were retrieved from the database.

Synovial sarcoma is a rare malignant mesenchymal neoplasm primarily affecting adolescents and young adults, and it typically arises from deep soft tissues near large joints. Although commonly found in extremities, it can occur in various anatomic locations. We present a rare case of a 29-year-old man with primary pulmonary synovial sarcoma manifesting as a cystic mass masquerading as a lung hydatid cyst.

Introduction: Laryngeal chondrosarcoma (CS) is a rare indolent malignant tumor. High-grade (G3), dedifferentiated (DD), and myxoid (MY) CSs are considered more aggressive subtypes due to their metastatic potential and relatively poor outcomes. The aim of this systematic review is to evaluate treatment modalities and survival outcomes in patients affected by these rarer CS subtypes.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to investigate imaging biomarkers for tumor response in patients with intermediate/high-grade soft tissue sarcomas (STS) following neoadjuvant radiotherapy (nRT), focusing on changes in imaging and pathology.
  • The analysis involved 107 patients, measuring tumor characteristics like diameter, volume, and signal intensity before and after treatment, and correlated these with pathological outcomes such as necrosis and viable cell percentage using statistical methods.
  • Results showed a low rate of complete tumor response, with specific subtypes like myxoid liposarcoma and undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma exhibiting significant changes in tumor size and signal intensity related to necrosis and fibrosis post-radiotherapy.
