BACKGROUND According to the definition by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), primary multiple neoplasms are two or more neoplasms of different histopathological build in one organ, or two or more tumors occurring in one patient, regardless of the time of their occurrence (synchronic - up to 6 months, metachronous - after 6 months), coming from an organ or a tissue and not b...

Low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasms (LAMN) are rarely seen. They incidentally detected during an appendectomy for appendicitis. Treatment is in low-grade neoplasms. Those having adverse features based on the appendix, lymph node metastasis, and tumour size greater than 2 cm, with hemicolectomy done. We present a rare case report of neoplasm diagnosed managed by right hemicolectomy.

BACKGROUND Some authors have studied the relationship between the presence of polyps, adenomas and cancers of upper gastrointestinal tract (stomach and duodenum) and risk of colorectal polyps and neoplasms; however, the results are controversial, which may be due to study sample size, populations, design, clinical features, and so on. No meta-analysis, which can be generalized to a larger popul...

Salivary gland neoplasms account for 0.5-2% of all tumors worldwide, and can display a remarkable range of morphological diversity between different tumor types. The aim of this retrospective study was to present the clinico-pathologic characteristics of salivary gland neoplasms in a tertiary referral hospital in northwest region of Nigeria. Clinical and histopathological records of patients wi...

Between October 1980 and December 1994, we treated 392 patients with malignant neoplasms associated with genitourinary organs. We made a statistical study on 42 patients (10.6%) with multiple malignant neoplasms. The average age of 42 patients was 72.2 years and 83% of the patients were male. Malignant neoplasms originating from bladder, prostate or kidney were observed in 19 cases (35%), 19 ca...

Peripherin is a type III neuronal intermediate filament and its expression is involved in the growth and development of the peripheral nervous systems. Peripherin expression has been reported in cutaneous endocrine carcinomas, but not in rectal well-differentiated endocrine neoplasms (carcinoid tumors). Well-differentiated endocrine neoplasms have been reported to have a relatively high inciden...

The incidences of all primary neoplasms in the testes and accessory reproductive organs of 51,230 male Fischer 344 (F344) rats and 46,752 male B6C3F1 mice were obtained from the pathology data base of more than 300 long-term toxicity/carcinogenicity studies performed for the National Toxicology Program. The overall incidence of reproductive system neoplasms in male F344 rats was 81.5%. The most...

Background: The most common intracranial neoplasm worldwide is meningioma, followed by gliomas, and then pituitary adenomas. There are geographical differences in the pattern of occurrence neoplasms. purpose this study to establish different histological types neoplasms with their age sex distributions our environment – Lagos, Nigeria.The patterns, age, gender all diagnosed within period at Dep...

introduction the application of immunohistochemical method has resulted in marked improvement of the microscopic diagnosis of neoplasms combined with h&e; staining. although unique cellular antigens have not been found in salivary gland neoplasms, multiple less specific immunomarkers have been used and may be helpful in elucidating the role of myoepithelial differentiation in those neoplasms. t...
