Primary urethral carcinoma is much more common in women than in men due to its association with urethritis. A 65-year-old man presented with a 10-month history of penile induration, obstructive voiding symptoms and hematuria. Urethrocystoscopy showed a solitary mass in the proximal urethra and no bladder involvement. It was performed penectomy without bladder neck excision and regional staging ...

We sought to determine if adenosquamous proliferation of early cellular radial sclerosing lesions of the breast harbours hot spot mutations and to help clarify its relationship to low-grade adenosquamous carcinoma as a potential form of early neoplasia. Four low-grade adenosquamous carcinomas, early radial sclerosing lesions from 13 individuals, and 4 benign proliferative breast lesions were mi...

Note: Tumor staging is separated by TNM classification (International Classification of Diseases, ICD). TNM classifications for carcinomas of the gallbladder, extrahepatic bile ducts and the ampulla of Vater. The histopathological classification of biliary tract carcinoma follows WHO classification: adenocarcinoma, adenosquamous carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, small cell carcinoma, adenoend...

Adenosquamous carcinoma is a rare histologic subtype of extrahepatic bile duct (EBD) carcinoma and limited information is available on its clinicopathologic characteristics. Twelve cases of adenosquamous carcinoma were collected from 3 institutions and their clinicopathologic characteristics were examined and compared with those of 176 EBD adenocarcinomas. The adenocarcinoma component was more ...

This case report describes an unusual paraneoplastic leukemoid response presenting in a rare instance of gallbladder (GB) adenosquamous carcinoma (ASC).
