Malignant brenner tumor of ovary.
Brenner tumor is a relatively uncommon neoplasm. It constitutes 1.4–2.5 % of all ovarian tumors and has a predilection for the postmenopausal women. Most Brenner tumors are benign, with only 2–5 % being malignant. The malignant components of the tumor, which show heterogeneous epithelial growth and atypia with intervening stroma, consist of transitional cells, squamous or undifferentiated carci...
متن کاملIntrathoracic Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumor: Histopathological and Immunohistochemical Features
Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor (MPNST) is a rare nerve sheath tumor derived from Schwann cells or pleuripotent cells of neural crest. Neurogenic tumors make about 10-20% of all mediastinal tumors. Incidence of MPNST is 0.001% in general population and 0.16% in patients with neurofibromatosis I (NF I). We report a case of 60 year female presenting with progressive cough and breathlessne...
متن کاملMalignant glomus tumor originating in the superior mediastinum--an immunohistochemical and ultrastructural study.
An extremely rare case of malignant glomus tumor originating in the superior mediastinum was evaluated immunohistochemically and ultrastructurally. A 78-year-old woman who had been suffering from dysphagia and dyspnea had poorly-defined soft tissue mass, 4.5 x 2.5cm, in the superior mediastinum with direct invasion into the esophagus, trachea, and bilateral thyroid glands. This case is believed...
متن کاملMalignant soft tissue neoplasms with the histologic features of renal rhabdoid tumors: an ultrastructural and immunohistochemical study.
Five round cell neoplasms of the soft parts that histologically resembled malignant rhabdoid tumors of the kidney were studied. The tumors were composed mainly of poorly differentiated round or, sometimes, polygonal cells, with a minority of elongated cells; the cytoplasm of many of the cells contained filament-laden acidophilic inclusions. Ultrastructurally, the intracytoplasmic structures wer...
متن کاملBorderline Brenner tumor of the ovary: a case report with immunohistochemical and molecular study
BACKGROUND Borderline Brenner tumor of the ovary is a rare entity characterized by papillary structures with a fibro-vascular core, covered by a transitional epithelium, and by the absence of stromal infiltration. It is associated, by definition, with a benign component of Brenner tumor. CASE We report a case of a 68-year-old woman, with a right ovarian mass, whose morphology and immuno-profi...
