Papillary cystadenomas of the salivary gland are uncommon, benign, encapsulated or well-circumscribed, multicystic tumors with intracystic papillations. In a large review, papillary cystadenoma constituted 2% of all minor salivary gland tumors. The present study reports an extremely rare case of a papillary cystadenoma arising from the palate that demonstrated oncocytic features. A 60-year-old ...

Papillary cystadenomas of the epididymis are known to occur in association with Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease. The development of a papillary cystadenocarcinoma, its malignant counterpart, is rare with only a few sporadic cases reported in the literature. Metastatic deposits are exceedingly uncommon; in fact, only a single case report has documented metastases to the paraureteral region, but ...

cystadenoma is a rare benign salivary gland tumor that chiefly originates in the minor salivary glands as a cystic growth with papillary projections into the cystic lumen without the lymphoid element. it is further classified into two histopathological variants that have been recognized by world health organization as the papillary and the mucinous forms of cystadenoma. clinically, it is diffic...

Ayedin et al2 compared the immunohistochemical profile of this tumour with RCC and described that papillary cystadenomas are positive for cytokeratin AE1/AE3 and EMA, CK7 and negative for CK20 and RCC immunostain. Four of 5 cases were negative for CD10. This staining profile contrasts with that reported for clear cell RCC, which are typically negative for CK7 and are immunoreactive for RCC and ...

Parovarian cysts are common disorders which constitute 10-20% of adnexal masses in pathologically verified series. Most of these cysts are benign, and borderline parovarian tumors are rare and documented only as case reports in the literature. The study was aim to examine the sonographic features of parovarian borderline tumors for making an accurate preoperative diagnosis. Four patients (mean ...

Tumors of the pancreas that contain substantial cystic components include mainly mucinous cystic neoplasm, intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm, solid pseudopapillary tumor, and cystadenomas (which encompass microcystic, macrocystic/oligocystic, and rare solid serous adenomas). Microcystic adenoma of the pancreas is a tumor that is benign in nature. Malignant transformation in the tumor with...

Cystadenoma of the liver is a rare neoplasm. Although many cystadenomas are asymptomatic, symptoms can include abdominal pain, postprandial epigastric discomfort, and nausea. Dramatic changes in hepatic imaging techniques have been helpful for diagnosing cystic lesions of the liver, such as simple cyst, hydatid cyst, cystadenoma, cystadenocarcinoma, and metastatic neuroendocrine tumors. However...

For evaluation of factors modifying renal carcinogenesis, several groups of 6-week-old C57BL X C3H Fj mice of both sexes were exposed once to 60 or 121)ng ot ethylnitrosourea per g of body weight. This treatment was preceded in some groups by partial hepatectomy and/or ovariectomy. Animals were killed at 90 weeks of age, and the incidence of renal tumors was evaluated. Ethylnitrosourea induced ...
