Lymphosarcoma of the Appendix

Does the Appendix Location Change During Pregnancy?

Background: Early diagnosis of appendicitis is important during pregnancy.  Unlike omentom, cecum and appendix are not likely to be displaced by the growing uterus, so the concept of position change of the appendix during pregnancy is questionable. Objective: To determine the anatomical location of appendix during pregnancy. Methods: In a prospective study from October 1995 to March 1999, 291 w...

Primary Lymphosarcoma of the Lung

Pulmonary involvement in disseminated lymphosarcoma is comparatively common. Vieta and Craver (1941) found an incidence of nearly 25% by radiographic assessment in a series of 239 patients with lymphosarcoma* and a similar proportion of a smaller number coming to necropsy. This figure agrees closely with the post-mortem incidence reported by Robbins (1953) in an even larger series. More recentl...

Transplantable Lymphosarcoma of the Chicken

The tumor described in this paper arose in a Leghorn chicken selected for examination because of its pale comb and emaciation. Examination of the blood revealed a severe change of erythroblastic type with the presence of numerous pathological elements difficult of classification. In nuclear structure the cells resembled at times lymphoblasts and at other times, hemocytoblasts. Nucleoli were pre...
