Objective(s): Prostate cancer is the world’s leading cause of cancer and the second cause of cancer-related death in men after lung cancer. Differentiation of prostate adenocarcinoma from benign prostate lesions and hyperplasia sometimes cannot be done on the basis of morphologic findings. Considering the fact that in the prostate adenocarcinoma there is no basal cell layer, basal cell markers ...

Introduction. Adrenal myelolipomas are uncommon nonfunctioning tumors of the adrenal. Synchronous renal cell carcinomas with adrenal myelolipomas are very rare. We present the case report of adrenal myelolipoma with synchronous RCC managed laparoscopically. Case Report. A 60-year-old old gentleman presented with incidental right upper polar mass with right adrenal mass. Metastatic work-up was n...

Choroidal metastases from renal carcinoma are rare. Most reported cases describe a clear cell carcinoma histologic subtype. Metastatic tubulopapillary renal cell carcinoma to the choroid plexus is very exceptional.We report the case of a 31-year-old man with a history of tubulopapillary renal cell carcinoma who presented two years later with metastatic disease to lungs and presternal soft tissu...

Primary urethral carcinoma is a rare malignancy with an annual age-adjusted incidence rate of 1.5 per million in females in the U.S. The three main histologic subtypes include transitional-cell carcinoma, squamous-cell carcinoma, and adenocarcinoma. Of these, adenocarcinoma is the least common. Female urethral carcinomas are aggressive neoplasms with a generally poor prognosis. We report a case...

In the present study, we compared the expression of miRNAs and angiogenesis-related genes in the renal tumors and adjacent normal renal tissues of patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). The first part of the present study was a preliminary analysis of 4 patients with stage T1a/b ccRCC that measured the levels of angiogenesis and expression of angiogenesis-related genes and miRNA...

MULTILOCULAR CYSTIC RENAL CLEAR CELL CARCINOMA CASE REPORT (Abstract): MCR CCC is a rare subtype of renal clear cell carcinoma with specific morphologic and immunohistochemical features. No progression of multilocular cystic renal cell carcinoma is known. We present the case of a 56-year-old male, with an accidentally discovered renal tumor due to its unusual gross appearance and a rare clinica...
