BACKGROUND The prevalence of synchronous primary lung neoplasms in surgical resection specimens was assessed. The associated clinical features and prognostic implications were investigated. METHODS All surgical resections for lung cancer performed during seven years were reviewed. Synchronous tumours were defined by the presence of more than one tumour mass in the lung, by differences in hist...

Ukraine is on the list of countries with a high incidence malignant neoplasms (MN). Among adult population and European countries, most common cancers are respiratory system (MNRS). High priorities in continuation MNRS research determined by rates initially neglected cases cancer low survival patients. MN one leading causes death world. According to WHO, 2020 about 10 million people died as res...

INTRODUCTION Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma is defined as a pleomorphic high-grade sarcoma whose line of differentiation cannot be determined. These tumors constitute less than 5% of all sarcomas in adults. Cardiac neoplasms are rare, and most are metastatic in origin. More than one-third of cardiac metastases originate from lung cancer. Symptoms of cardiac neoplasms usually appear late i...

Lung disease is very common in patients with hematologic neoplasms and varies in function of the underlying disease and its treatment. Lung involvement is associated with high morbidity and mortality, so it requires early appropriate treatment. Chest computed tomography (CT) and the analysis of biologic specimens are the first line diagnostic tools in these patients, and sometimes invasive meth...

Amyloidosis has been classified by Symmers (1956) into (1) generalized secondary amyloidosis; (2) generalized primary amyloidosis ; and (3) localized amyloidosis. Involvement of the respiratory tract by amyloid material in the generalized systemic form of the disorder is not as rare as is commonly supposed. In amyloidosis associated with a recognized predisposing disease the incidence is at lea...

Introduction: Lung and colorectal carcinoma are commonly found in cancer often cause mortality worldwide. Colorectal (CRC) is the third most common of death. Although multiple primary cancers can exist, these two malignancies rarely happen simultaneously. This case report shows a patient diagnosed with squamous cell lung rectal adenocarcinoma metastases to liver, ocular, cerebrum. Case: A 54-ye...

BACKGROUND Coexistence of adenocarcinoma and mantle cell lymphoma in the same or different anatomical sites is extremely rare. We present a case of incidental discovery of primary lung adenocarcinoma and mantle cell lymphoma involving the pleura, during an axillary thoracotomy performed for a benign condition. CASE PRESENTATION A 73-year old male underwent bullectomy and apical pleurectomy fo...

1331 radiotherapy. If need be, white count and platelets permitting, my dose can be built up to the maximum by the third course. Too often I have seen patients develop profound marrow depression and overwhelming superinfection with bacteria or fungi. Although they have survived, their morale has been harmed and they are that much more debilitated. No, I will hope to reach my maximum dose by deg...
