متن کاملPrimary signet-ring cell adenocarcinoma of the prostate (a case report).
We report a rare case of primary signet ring cell adenocarcinoma of the prostate in a 61-year-old male, who died of systemic lymphatic spread. Autopsy ruled out another primary signet ring cell adenocarcinoma outside the prostate. However, immunohistochemically, the tumor stained negatively for prostate-specific antigen. A review of the literature revealed only 15 case reports, including our case.
متن کاملEarly diagnosis of signet ring cell carcinoma of the stomach: role of the Genta stain.
Signet ring cell carcinoma is a poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma in which the tumour cells invade singly or in small groups. Early stages of the disease can be missed easily when using regular haematoxylin and eosin staining. This is a report of a case in which routine screening of gastric biopsies with the Genta stain was responsible for rapid identification of signet ring carcinoma. The p...
