INTRODUCTION We report a case of treatment of anaplastic thyroid carcinoma spread over the trachea with mediastinal extension. METHODS Case report and review of the world literature concerning the treatment of anaplastic thyroid carcinoma are presented. DISCUSSION The role of surgery in treatment of anaplastic carcinoma remains controversial. Our case we underlined two questions: the approp...
Being one of the most lethal human neoplasms and refractory to such conventional treatment as chemo- and radiotherapy, anaplastic thyroid carcinoma is a prime target for innovative therapy. p53 gene inactivation is a constant feature of this neoplasia. Therefore, we evaluated a therapeutic approach based on an E1B 55-kDa gene-defective adenovirus (ONYX-015) that replicates only in cells with im...
Primary anaplastic large cell lymphoma of the trachea is a rare tumor. Common complaints are dyspnea and cough that could mimic a partially refractory asthma in some cases. We report a 16-year-old female with an anaplastic large cell lymphoma (null cell type) in which tracheal involvement was presented with life-threatening airway obstruction and subcutaneous emphysema. After debulking the tumo...
Spermatocytic Seminoma (SS) is less common than the Classic variant, as its incidence ranges between 1.3% and 2.3% of all seminomas. Generally SS is diagnosed in men older than 50 years. The Anaplastic variant of Spermatocytic Seminoma is characterized by an earlier onset when compared to SS, but a benign behavior in spite of its histological patterns similar to Classic Seminoma. We reported th...
Anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) is a receptor tyrosine kinase that has been implicated in the pathogenesis of a variety of neoplasms. As suggested by its name, ALK was first described as part of a translocation product in cases of anaplastic large-cell lymphoma, with other genetic and cytogenetic ALK mutations subsequently coming to attention in the development of many other hematologic and so...
Most cases of anaplastic thyroid carcinoma can be pathologically and often historically associated with the presence of low-grade (differentiated) cancer in the thyroid. That radiation therapy to the differentiated tumor plays an etiologic role in the transformation of a differentiated to an undifferentiated tumor has been suggested. If such therapy can be implicated, is there a difference in r...
In this study, the expression of the novel intermediate filament protein Restin in human tissues was analyzed. Restin expression was studied by immunohistochemistry using polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies. Restin was not detected in normal tissues, a range of B- and T-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphomas, and nonlymphoid tumors. However, Restin was present in Reed-Sternberg cells and variants thereo...
BACKGROUND It has become increasingly common to incorporate adjuvant chemotherapy with radiotherapy in the treatment of resected anaplastic astrocytoma based on results from recent phase II/III randomized trials. However, whether or not combined chemoradiotherapy is associated with improved survival outcome in patients who undergo "biopsy only" is less clear. METHODS The US National Cancer Da...
Background The purpose of this study was to evaluate the prognostic factors and outcomes in patients with ependymoma to management plans. Methods Between 1997 and 2013, 33 patients with 25 ependymomas (WHO grade II) and eight anaplastic ependymomas (WHO grade III) were pathologically diagnosed. Six were pediatric patients (mean age, 6.15 years; range, 1.3-11 years), while 27 were adults (mean...
PURPOSE In a prior study of anaplastic oligodendrogliomas treated with chemotherapy at diagnosis or at recurrence after radiotherapy, allelic loss of chromosome 1p correlated with better chemotherapeutic response and overall survival. However, in this group of patients in whom therapeutic management was not uniform, loss of 1p did not identify all chemosensitive tumors, nor did all patients who...
