Cushing’s syndrome associated with typical, peripheral pulmonary carcinoid tumor and N2 lymph node metastasis: case report
Background: The bronchopulmonary carcinoid tumor accounts for 1-2% of all adult malignancies of the lung and 20-30% of all carcinoid tumors. Cushing’s syndrome is the result of chronic exposure to increased concentration of exogenous or endo-genus cortisol hormone, and it is generally associated with central obesity, metabolic syndrome, and hypertension. Treatment is based on decreasing cortiso...
متن کاملIncreased Expression of ATG10 in Colorectal Cancer Is Associated with Lymphovascular Invasion and Lymph Node Metastasis
BACKGROUND Autophagy has paradoxical and complex functions in cancer development, and autophagy-related genes (ATG) are key regulators in autophagy. Until now, more than 30 different ATG proteins have been identified in yeast, and their mammalian counterparts also have been reported. Although the roles of a few ATG proteins in cancer have been characterized, the role of ATG10 is almost complete...
متن کاملEarly gastric cancer and lymph node metastasis.
A total of 1,845 cases of gastric cancer have been resected in our hospital during the past 18 years. Of these, 764 cases (41.5%) were early gastric cancer. The rate of lymph node metastasis was 2% in early mucosal cancer and 19.4% in early submucosal cancer (p < 0.001). In the cases of early mucosal cancer, the rate of lymph node metastasis was 0.9% for the elevated type and 2.4% for the depre...
متن کاملLymph node metastasis and pattern of recurrence in clinically early stage endometrial cancer with positive lymphovascular space invasion
OBJECTIVE To investigate the rate, predictors of lymph node metastasis (LNM) and pattern of recurrence in clinically early stage endometrial cancer (EC) with positive lymphovascular space invasion (LVSI). METHODS Women with clinically early stage EC and positive LVSI 2005 to 2012 were identified. Kaplan-Meier curves and logistic regression models were used. RESULTS One hundred forty-eight w...
متن کاملOverexpression of Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1 in Advanced Gastric Cancer with Aggressive Lymph Node Metastasis
PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to investigate differentially expressed genes using DNA microarray between advanced gastric cancer (AGC) with aggressive lymph node (LN) metastasis and that with a more advanced tumor stage but without LN metastasis. MATERIALS AND METHODS Five sample pairs of gastric cancer tissue and normal gastric mucosa were taken from three patients with T3N3 stage (hi...
