Ostegogenic Sarcoma with Epithelial Differentiation (Carcinosarcoma): Report of Two Cases
Authors
Abstract:
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, uncommitted multipotiential stem cell to produce biphenotypic tumors.

Mesenchymal chondrosarcoma (MC) is an uncommon tumor with an aggressive behaviour. We present two cases of MC. The first one is a unique case of MC of the maxilla metastasized from the clavicle. The second describes MC in the mandible with extensive involvement of the condyle. A 31-year-old male and a 22-year-old male presented to Saveetha Dental College, with a 2-month history of progressiv...

We report two cases of uterine carcinosarcoma associated with alpha-fetoprotein (AFP)-producing hepatoid adenocarcinoma. Samples were obtained from two women aged 63 and 82 years. Serum AFP levels of the two samples were 10,131 and 401 ng/ml, respectively. Histologically, in both cases the tumor cells were composed of hepatoid adenocarcinoma component and sarcoma component including rhabdomyosa...

BACKGROUND/AIMS The purpose of the study is to report two long-term survivors with ovarian carcinosarcomas, which are rare intrapelvic malignancies with unfavorable prognosis. METHODS Two middle-aged women with palpable abdominal tumors underwent complete cytoreductive surgery and no macroscopic tumor was left behind. Early postoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy with doxorubicin was used ...

Clear cell sarcoma of kidney (CCSK) is an aggressive renal neoplasm. We report two boys aged three and half, and three years with CCSK, one of whom had a disease free survival of four years and eight months. These patients were managed with surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy. One of the patients discontinued treatment early and lost to follow up. Aggressive multimodality therapy is the keys...
full textPrimary Ewing sarcoma of the spine: Report of two cases.
Ewing sarcoma is a primary bone tumor which was originally described by Lucke in 1866 but was defined in such detail by Sir James Ewing in 1921 that it is now associated with his name [1]. This tumor involves the spine primarily in 3.5% to 14.9% r ~ ~ases [2,3]. The review of 22 cases of Ewing Sarcoma of the spine by Pilepich et al in 1981 [4] remains the largest study of this pathology in such...
