Primary papillary serous carcinoma of the peritoneum in a man.
BACKGROUND Primary papillary serous carcinoma of the peritoneum is a well-known entity in women. The tumour is derived from the extraovarian mesothelium and the pelvis and lower abdomen mesothelia. The treatment strategies are similar to ovarian serous papillary carcinoma. PATIENTS AND METHODS A case of primary serous papillary carcinoma of the peritoneum in a man is presented. The patient, 5...
متن کاملPrimary serous carcinoma of peritoneum: A case report
Introduction: Primary serous papillary carcinoma of the peritoneum (PSPCP) is a rare malignant epithelial tumor that is histologically indistinguishable from papillary serous carcinoma of the ovary (PSCO). It is defined as primary tumor of peritoneum that diffusely involves the peritoneal surface but spares or only superficially invades the ovaries. Better recognition of this entity in recent y...
متن کاملAdrenal Metastasis from Uterine Papillary Serous Carcinoma
BACKGROUND Uterine papillary serous carcinoma (UPSC) is a highly malignant form of endometrial cancer with a high propensity for metastases and recurrences even when there is minimal or no myometrial invasion. It usually metastasizes to the pelvis, retroperitoneal lymph nodes, upper abdomen, and peritoneum. However, adrenal metastases from UPSC is extremely rare. Here, we present a case of UPS...
متن کاملMolecular evidence for multifocal papillary serous carcinoma of the peritoneum in patients with germline BRCA1 mutations.
BACKGROUND Papillary serous carcinoma of the peritoneum (PSCP) diffusely involves peritoneal surfaces, while it spares or only superficially involves the ovaries. PSCP is histologically indistinguishable from serous epithelial ovarian carcinoma, and it may develop years after oophorectomy. The molecular pathogenesis of PSCP remains unresolved, although preliminary data suggest a multifocal orig...
متن کاملTuberous Sclerosis Complex Associated with Papillary Serous Carcinoma of the Peritoneum, Lymphangioleiomyomatosis, and Angiomyolipoma
Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is associated with benign and malignant tumors, including lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) and angiomyolipoma (AML). We herein describe the TSC case of a 50-year-old woman having a papillary serous carcinoma of the peritoneum (PSCP), LAM, and AML. On microscopic examination, the PSCP cells showed a cuboidal to columnar shape, proliferated into the papillae, and in...
