Multiple inflammatory pseudotumors of the liver associated with acute myeloblastic leukemia.
A 26-year-old man, diagnosed with acute myelogenous leukemia had multiple inflammatory pseudotumors (IPT) in the liver. The patient presented complete remission after remission induction therapy, and then showed right upper quadrant discomfort and intermittent fever. An ultrasonography disclosed multiple hypoechoic nodules in the liver. A biopsy of the nodules showed focal liver cell necrosis w...
متن کاملDown regulation of GTPase regulator associated with the focal adhesion kinase (GRAF) gene expression in patients with acute myeloblastic leukemia
Introduction: GTPase regulator associated with focal adhesion kinase (GRAF) is a recently identified GTPase activating protein that has the tumor suppressor properties. However, the expression level of GRAF in leukemia had received less attention. The main purpose of this research was the evaluating of the expression level of GRAF in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Materials and met...
متن کاملmultiple pseudotumors of the liver associated with adenocarcinoma of the colon: a case report
hepatic inflammatory pseudotumor (ipt) is a rare non-neoplastic process of unknown etiology, generally following a benign inflammatory condition. it is often mistaken as an either primary or metastatic malignancy in imaging studies. we report a 48 year-old female with numerous target lesions (2-4 cm) seen on high resolution ultrasound, spiral ct scan, and mri in all liver lobes compatible with ...
متن کاملExpression Profile of Wnt Molecules in Leukemic Cells from Iranian Patients with Acute Myeloblastic Leukemia
Background: Wnt molecules play a key role in growth, proliferation and development of some embryonic and adult organs as well as hematopoietic stem cells. Wnt signaling pathways are aberrantly activated in many tumor types, including solid tumors and hematologic malignancies. Objective: To investigate the expression profile of a large number of Wnt genes in leukemic cells from Iranian patients ...
متن کاملOver-expression of Wilm’s Tumor Gene 1 (WT1) in Iranian Patients with Acute Myeloblastic Leukemia
Background: The Wilm’s tumor gene 1 (WT1) encodes a zinc finger transcription factor that is inactivated in a subset of Wilm’s tumors. It plays a crucial role in growth, proliferation and development of some embryonic and adult organs. WT1 is expressed as a tumor associated antigen (TAA) in various types of solid and hematopoietic malignancies and can be employed as a useful marker for targeted...
