Use of a standardized diagnostic approach improves the prognostic information of histopathologic factors in pancreatic and periampullary adenocarcinoma
BACKGROUND Variability in reported histopathology parameters in operated periampullary adenocarcinomas may affect the prognostic weight of the parameters. Standardized axial sectioning produces a higher incidence of involved margins and also seems to produce a lower relative incidence of pancreatic compared with distal bile duct origin and a higher incidence of involved lymph nodes, compared wi...
متن کاملPrognostic and predictive significance of podocalyxin-like protein expression in pancreatic and periampullary adenocarcinoma
BACKGROUND Adenocarcinoma of the periampullary region is associated with poor prognosis and new prognostic and treatment predictive biomarkers are needed for improved treatment. Membranous expression of podocalyxin-like 1(PODXL), which is a cell-adhesion glycoprotein and stem cell marker, has been found to correlate with an aggressive tumour phenotype and adverse outcome in several cancer types...

متن کاملCytokeratin7 expression in gastric and colorectal adenocarcinoma: Correlation with prognostic factors
Background: Gastric and colorectal adenocarcinoma are the second and the fifth most common cancers in Iran, respectively. Expression of cytokeratin 7 (CK7) is established in most malignancies including gastric and colorectal adenocarcinoma. Demonstration of Ck7 could be related to prognostic factors and help to the better management of the patients. The objective of our study was to evalu...
متن کاملLarge retroperitoneal paraganglioma concurrent with periampullary adenocarcinoma
Paragangliomas are tumors that originate from extra-adrenal medullary neural crest derivatives. They are rarely located in retroperitoneal space. These tumors are often discovered incidentally during imaging studies performed for other reasons. Periampullary cancers include adenocarcinomas arising from the pancreas, ampulla of Vater, duodenum or distal common bile duct. The exact site of origin...
