Former Mucinous Bronchioloalveolar Carcinoma Revisited
This is a brief case report of invasive multicentric mucinous adenocarcinoma presented at a rather young age with bronchorrhea and persistent consolidation that ended up with the patient demise; nevertheless, we demonstrate relevant radiological and pathological features with emphasis on the new classification of bronchioloalveolar carcinoma, a term that should no longer be in use.
متن کاملMismatch between gallium-67 uptake and CT findings in a case of pulmonary alveolar proteinosis.
Gallium-67 citrate (67Ga) scintigraphy has been used as an indicator of activity of diffuse interstitial lung diseases. However, little has been mentioned in pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP). Here we present a 53-year-old man with PAP showing patchy 67Ga uptake by single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). Interestingly, the strong 67Ga uptake was observed in areas where ground-gla...
متن کاملMucinous Eccrine Carcinoma of the Eyelid: A Case Report Study
Background: Primary Mucinous eccrine carcinoma (PMEC) is a quite rare malignant tumor that typically involves the head and neck region in approximately 75% of patients and the periorbital area is the most common area. Case Presentation: A 57-year-old man was seen with a painless red mass involving the left lower eyelid for the past 7 months. Examination revealed a small mass measuring 0.6 cm ...
متن کاملPulmonary alveolar proteinosis: high-resolution CT, chest radiographic, and functional correlations.
STUDY OBJECTIVE To determine whether a correlation exists between pulmonary function and both frontal chest radiographs and high-resolution chest CT findings in patients with pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP). DESIGN Retrospective review of radiographic and clinical data. SETTING Tertiary referral hospital. PATIENTS Seven patients with PAP were studied on 25 occasions using high-resolu...
متن کاملBronchioloalveolar carcinoma: computed tomography findings.
The aim of the present study was to investigate the appearance of bronchioloalveolar lung carcinoma on computed tomography (CT) scans, and to determine the frequency of signs suggestive of this diagnosis. CT features of 42 cases with pathologically proven bronchioloalveolar carcinoma were retrospectively analysed for pattern, size, location and secondary signs suggesting the diagnosis. Bronchio...
