Renal lymphoma: spectrum of CT findings and potential mimics.

Published: October 1998

Renal lymphoma has a broad spectrum of imaging manifestations. Typical patterns of renal lymphoma include multiple renal masses, solitary masses, diffuse infiltration, and invasion from contiguous retroperitoneal disease. Isolated perirenal disease is probably the most atypical form of renal lymphoma and has a variety of appearances, including small curvilinear densities and soft-tissue nodules or plaques. In general, the CT diagnosis of renal lymphoma is not difficult because most patients already have a known diagnosis of lymphoma. Nevertheless, it is important to be familiar with both the typical and the atypical manifestations of renal lymphoma because numerous disease processes, normal variants, and artifacts may potentially mimic renal lymphoma.

Objective: To investigate the clinical characteristics, pathology, imaging features, and prognosis of primary renal lymphoma (PRL), a rare malignancy.

Patients And Method: We conducted a retrospective review of 14 PRL cases diagnosed between January 2009 and January 2022, with follow-up data collected from medical records.

Results: The study included 14 patients (7 males, 7 females), with a mean age of 60.

Background: Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are now considered revolutionary agents in the treatment of various cancers. Prospective data are limited on the patterns of usage and toxicity profile of these drugs. We planned this study for addressing the same in Indian patients.

Unlabelled: Immune escape is a critical hallmark of cancer progression and underlies resistance to multiple immunotherapies. However, it remains unclear when the genetic events associated with immune escape occur during cancer development. Here, we integrate functional genomics studies of immunomodulatory genes with a tumor evolution reconstruction approach to infer the evolution of immune escape across 38 cancer types from the Pan-Cancer Analysis of Whole Genomes dataset.

Background: The distribution of adverse events (AEs) triggered by immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) across different cancer types has never been demonstrated.

Methods: Randomised controlled trials exclusively assessing ICI monotherapy in cohorts of over 100 patients were considered. Our primary outcome was a comprehensive summary of the distribution of all-grade treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) as well as serious TRAEs (CTCAE grade 3 or higher) across different malignancies.

Objectives: To identify if chemotherapeutic drugs in the CHOP-based protocol led to an increase in renal parameters in dogs with lymphoma during therapy and investigate whether factors such as prednisolone use or age affected this result.

Methods: Data were obtained retrospectively from private referral practice records of dogs diagnosed with lymphoma receiving a CHOP-based chemotherapy protocol between 2015 and 2019. Dogs included received a CHOP-based protocol as their first treatment, received four full cycles and were in remission at the end of the protocol.
