Implantation metastasis occurs when tumor seeds into a wound or tissue by a significant amount of viable tumor cells. Here we describe the case of a 30-year-old man suffering from pain and swelling of the foot, which was misdiagnosed as a bone cyst. Surgery was performed involving curettage followed by bone grafting. After surgical pathology, the exact diagnosis was revealed as the synovial sar...

Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is very rare tumor of dermis layer of skin with the incidence of only 1 case per million per year. DFSP rarely leads to a metastasis (Less than 5% have metastasis), but DFSP can recur locally. We publish a rare case of a recurrent dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans and its management with radical excision and interval skin grafting. 

abstract purpose: metastatic breast cancer has remained as an incurable disease. the main objectives of treatments include alleviating of symptoms, delaying disease progression and increasing survival without any adverse effect on the quality of life. the main purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of some clinocopathological factors on the survival of patients with metastatic bre...

The morphological characteristics and retinal changes of chroidal metastases using Spectral Domain OCT are described in a case with primary lung adenocarcinoma and secondary choroidal involvement.

Human vision comprises different structures whose physiological functions act as variable for a healthy human vision. Retina plays vital role in vision, hosting cells and neuron ten layers. The perikaryal of these neurons are segregated from neurological processes, forming discrete layers1. inner retina includes ganglion amacrine cells, whereas the outer rod cone photoreceptors. primary photore...

Objective(s): BONENAVI, a computer-aided diagnostic system, is used in bone scintigraphy. This system provides the artificial neural network (ANN) and bone scan index (BSI) values. ANN is associated with the possibility of bone metastasis, while BSI is related to the amount of bone metastasis. The degree of uptake on bone scintigraphy can be affected by the type of bone metastasis. Therefore, t...

exudative retinal detachment (erd) may be seen with many ocular pathologies including malignancies. among malignant causes, metastases of breast and lung carcinoma are most common. a 50-year-old woman referred to our clinic with history of decreased visual acuity in her right eye since 3 months before referral. the visual acuity was counting fingers at 2 meters and 6/10 in the right and left ey...

the authors describe two interesting and seldom cases of atrophia gyrata j and believe it to be a congenital hereditary disease with a recessive character. like retinitis pigmentosa, it does not affect the central posterior parts of the retina but the lesions are around the periphery. the visual fields are narrowed. they discuss; the similarity of this disease with atrophia gyrata described by ...
