abstract: gestational trophoblastic neoplasm (gtn) is among rare human tumors which can be observed with widespread metastasis. two young patients with emergent neurologic symptoms with no gynecological problems are presented in this report. gtn was later diagnosed in both cases with brain metastasis. the first case: a 22 years old patient, admitted to the infectious disease ward, with probable...

60-year-old woman was treated for a brain metastasis. the patient received intensity-modulated radiation therapy (sib-imrt) dose of 30 gy for the whole brain and 40 gy delivered simultaneously to individual brain metastases in 10 fractions. the present report investigated the influence of applied novel prepared treatment plan, among others the fractionation protocol on the electroencephalogram ...

one out of eight women face with the problem of breast cancer in her life. it is the second causes of women death in the world. detection of breast cancer metastasis at the earliest stage is important to predict and control of breast cancer progression. it can spread to the different parts of the body, such as are the bone, liver, and lung and etc. how and where does the breast metastasis grow ...

60-year-old woman was treated for a brain metastasis. The patient received intensity-modulated radiation therapy (SIB-IMRT) dose of 30 Gy for the whole brain and 40 Gy delivered simultaneously to individual brain metastases in 10 fractions. The present report investigated the influence of applied novel prepared treatment plan, among others the fractionation protocol on the electroencephalogram ...

Background: This study was performed to assess patient survival and treatment toxicity after helical tomotherapy (HT) with simultaneous integrated boost (SIB) radiotherapy (RT) for cancer patients with one to eight brain metastases (BM) who have been treated with or without surgery. Materials and Methods: A total of 48 brain metastasis (BM) patients were included in this retrospective study bet...

hepatoblastoma (hb) is a rare tumor of infancy and childhood manifesting with hepatomegaly and abdominal distention. it is seen with increased frequency in association with congenital hemihypertrophy and renal anomalies. metastases to other organs, including the lungs, lymph nodes and even ovaries is well known. but cerebral metastasis of this tumor, especially in the absence of metastasis to o...

Hepatoblastoma (HB) is a rare tumor of infancy and childhood manifesting with hepatomegaly and abdominal distention. It is seen with increased frequency in association with congenital hemihypertrophy and renal anomalies. Metastases to other organs, including the lungs, lymph nodes and even ovaries is well known. But cerebral metastasis of this tumor, especially in the absence of metastasis ...

Background: In this study, with the aim of modeling Leukemia in children using Phase-type distribution, three transitional phases including diagnosis, brain metastasis and testis/ovary metastasis, and one absorotion phase of recovery/death have been considered. The distribution was fitted and the probabilities of death or recovery were determined based on the independent variab...

Meningioma is the commonest primary intracranial tumor in adults, with majority being benign. Malignant meningioma exceedingly rare and carries a poor prognosis because of its tendency for local recurrence distant metastasis. We present case 53 years old male anaplastic malignant meningioma, which recurred after excision radiotherapy later metastasised to pleura, bones brain. Keywords: Metastat...

Cancer initiation and progression is a challenging scenario through developmental processes, which may be more complicated by occurrence of metastasis. Basically, diverse genetic alterations, including mutations, formation of truncated proteins and related pathways play key roles either in diagnosis or the most influential therapeutic purposes. ...
