Organ transplantation in patients with prior malignancy increases the risk of tumor recurrence post-transplantation due to immunosuppression. Only two cases of liver transplantation have so far been reported in children with hepatic metastases from pancreatoblastoma, a rare malignant neoplasm originating from the epithelial exocrine cells of the pancreas. Herein, we describe a case of a success...

Background Squamous-cell carcinoma arising in a pilonidal sinus is a rare complication of a common disease. More than 60 cases are reported in literature. In all patients, squamous carcinoma arises in a long-term pilonidal disease. The gold-standard for treatment is radical excision of the neoplasm, with tumour-free margins. Some Authors consider the effectiveness of postoperative chemoor radio...

Papillary urothelial neoplasm of low malignant potential (PUNLMP) is rarely diagnosed in paediatric patients under the age of 10 years. We report a case of bladder PUNLMP in a 9-year-old boy. The kid presented with painless gross haematuria. Ultrasound and computed tomography imaged a papillary mass in the bladder. Sixteen months follow-up detected no evidence of recurrence after resection of t...

CASE REPORT An 80-year-old woman diagnosed with a recurrent squamous conjuctival carcinoma treated with surgical excision of the lesion, zonal reconstruction and topical Interferon alpha 2-β. DISCUSSION Squamous conjunctival carcinoma is the most frequent neoplasm of the ocular surface. Surgical removal of the lesion is the traditional treatment, but this technique has a high recurrence rate....

Hemangiomas of the rib are extremely rare benign neoplasm. Here we present a case in a 47-year-old female, detected by chest X-ray and underwent a surgical resection. Histologically, the tumor was composed of a homogeneous conglomerate, irregular, thin walled and dilated blood vessels containing red blood cells, supported by fibrous stroma and intermingled to regular bone trabeculae.

We present the case of a female patient admitted to our University Hospital with acute abdominal pain mimicking an intraperitoneal septic condition caused possibly by acute appendicitis. CT and ultrasound scan showed a mass situated in the right iliac fossa. The patient was submitted to laparotomy and right hemicolectomy. The operative findings were suggestive of an appendiceal mucocele. The hi...

Prenatal ultrasonography at 24 weeks disclosed a fetus with a large mass protruding from the occiput. The mass was an invasive, undifferentiated mesenchymal neoplasm of the scalp associated with a defect in the occipital bone (cranium bifidum). The tumor may have derived from neural crest at the site of rhombencephalic closure. The tumor itself would seem to be a sporadic event, but the cranium...

Lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma of the skin (LELCS) is a very rare cutaneous neoplasm with limited metastatic potential. It presents distinctive histopathologic features similar to undifferentiated nasopharyngeal carcinoma and clinical similarities with other skin neoplasms. We present the first case of LELCS in Polish patients. A 72-year-old woman presented with a 12 months' history of painle...
