A 42-year-old male patient presented in 2002 with a solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) arising from the visceral pleura of the right lung. Thoracic surgery was performed to remove the tumor. A second operation to remove a recurrent tumor on the parietal pleura of the right thorax was performed in 2010. A follow-up computed tomography (CT) scan revealed local recurrence in the chest wall. And then a t...

Pulmonary metastasis of benign giant cell tumor of bone is very rare, and its biological behavior is difficult to predict. In the present study, we analyzed the clinical characteristics of and related risk factors for pulmonary metastasis of this tumor. Forty-six patients with lung metastasis were analyzed. In total, 60.9% of the primary tumors were located around the knee joint. The Campanacci...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the rate of local recurrence of extra-abdominal desmoid tumor and compare the outcomes of surgical treatment and conservative treatment. METHODS Twenty one patients (14 women and seven men), mean age 33.0±8.7 years old, with a diagnosis of desmoid tumor were evaluated. The mean follow-up period was 58.5±29.0 months. Fourteen cases involved the lower limbs, four cases inv...

Few cases of Liposarcoma of the spermatic cord have been reported in the literature. This rare tumor represents 7% of malignant tumors of the spermatic cord. We report a case of an unusual liposarcoma of the spermatic cord, with respect to its sclerosing variant, occurring in a healthy looking 42 years old man. A wide local excision of the tumor was performed. Adjuvant radiotherapy may sometime...

Material Method: Patients treated either or methods for GCT between 2011 2021 were retrospectively evaluated. Gender age patients, localization tumors, existence pathological fractures, grade tumor, soft tissue expansion, resectio...

Solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) of the kidney is a rare entity and usually displays a favorable prognosis. We herein report a second case of renal SFT developing local recurrence. A 50-year-old man was referred to our hospital because of a left renal mass. An abdominal CT detected a large renal tumor and radical nephrectomy was performed with a possible diagnosis of renal cell carcinoma. The resec...

PURPOSE Approximately 10-30% of surgically treated head and neck cancer patients develop local recurrences while the resection margins are histologically tumor free. These recurrences may arise from cancer cells left behind but not detected by the pathologist, or they may develop from precursor lesions adjacent to the tumor that were not completely resected. We have investigated whether TP53-mu...

OBJECTIVE To describe the clinical and histopathologic features of noncontiguous tumor recurrence after transscleral local resection of posterior uveal melanoma. METHODS Chart review was performed to identify patients with noncontiguous tumor recurrences from a series of 494 consecutive patients treated with transscleral local resection for uveal melanoma. The clinical and histopathologic fea...

Meningioma is the commonest primary intracranial tumor in adults, with majority being benign. Malignant meningioma exceedingly rare and carries a poor prognosis because of its tendency for local recurrence distant metastasis. We present case 53 years old male anaplastic malignant meningioma, which recurred after excision radiotherapy later metastasised to pleura, bones brain. Keywords: Metastat...
