Oxyphilic clear cell carcinoma ovary.

چکیده
A 60-year-old postmenopausal female presented with complaints of heaviness in the abdomen associated with loss of weight and appetite. There were no urinary complaints or bleeding per vaginum. A vague mass was palpable in the lower abdomen measuring about 8x5 cm. Multiple bilateral inguinal lymph nodes were palpable. On per vaginal examination, a firm solid mass measuring 8x4 cm was felt through the right and posterior fornix, extending into the left fornix. CA-125 was markedly elevated at 18,250 U/ml. Pap smear revealed benign reactive changes of inflammation.

متن کاملRET rearrangements in archival oxyphilic thyroid tumors: new insights in tumorigenesis and classification of Hürthle cell carcinomas?
BACKGROUND Oncocytic carcinomas (Hürthle cell carcinomas [HCCs]) are commonly considered a subgroup of follicular thyroid carcinomas (FTCs). Recent characterization of a subgroup of "Hürthle cell" papillary thyroid carcinomas (PTCs) was based on the identification of PTC-specific RET hybrid oncogenes in HCCs. METHODS We examined 27 HCCs, 4 oxyphilic FTCs, 5 oxyphilic PTCs, 2 poorly differenti...
