Abstract:

Nous presentons 3 cas de carcino-sarcome de l'oesophage dans une serie de 5574 cas de tu­meur oesophagienne.  Il s'agit d'une tumeur rare de l'oesophage qui se presente sous forme d'une masse polypeu­se localisee au l/3 moyen de l'oesophage et pro­vogue une dysphagie qui aboutit progressive­ment a !'obstruction complete de l'oesophage. La tumeur sur le plan histologique, est formee par les deux composantes, carcino-et sarcomateuse.  Malgre l'inquietants spect clinique, radiolo­gique, chirurgicale et d'anatomo-pathologique, l'evolution est lente et les metastases sont tar­dives.

Carcinosarcoma of the esophagus is a malignant neoplasm involving both carcinomatous and sarcomatous components. We report a patient with true esophageal carcinosarcoma who underwent laparoscopy-assisted surgery. An upper gastrointestinal barium study revealed a lobulated intraluminal filling defect in the lower intrathoracic esophagus. The patient underwent esophagectomy and regional lymphaden...

Ostegogenic Sarcoma with Epithelial Differentiation (Carcinosarcoma): Report of Two Cases

Epitheloid osteosarcoma (carcinosarcoma) of the bone is a rare malignant tumor and only a few cases have been reported in the literature. In this study, we report two cases of osseous carcinosarcoma (epitheloid osteosarcoma) with immunohistochemical studies.  The morphological and immunohistochemical data in these two cases support the theory of divergent differentiation of primitive, uncommitt...

Introducing Three Worlds of Mathematics

For several years I have been working with Eddie Gray and others on the ways in which we conceptualize different kinds of mathematical concept were particularly interested in the distinction between objects formed in geometry (such as points, lines, circles, polyhedra) and concepts studied in arithmetic, algebra and symbolic calculus (numbers, algebraic expressions, limits). We concluded that t...

Multidisciplinary therapy for granulocyte-colony-stimulating factor producing carcinosarcoma of the esophagus: report of a case

The granulocyte-colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF)-producing esophageal carcinosarcoma is extremely rare in esophageal cancer. In the present case, multidisciplinary therapy, which is surgical resection with preoperative chemotherapy, has been effectively treatment to granulocyte-colony-stimulating factor producing esophageal carcinosarcoma of the esophagus.
