Primary Ewing sarcoma of the kidney is a very rare neoplasm that generally occurs in young adults. We report a 69-year-old woman with a history of breast cancer who on a routine annual bone scan was found to have a suspicious area over the right kidney. Computed tomography revealed a 16 by 15-cm mass that was removed by a radical nephrectomy. Pathologic examination confirmed the diagnosis of ...

Kidney tissue is particularly susceptible to reactive oxygen species attack which leads to development of cancer. During oxidative stress, membrane lipids and proteins are major targets of reactive oxygen species (ROS). This work is focused on changes of phospholipids, proteins content and electric charge that occur in cell membranes of kidney cancer of pT3 stage, grade G3 and with metastasis. ...

A 60-year-old male patient presented with complaints of loss of appetite and bloated abdomen of two weeks duration. The radiological examination revealed large mass involving left kidney. With a clinical and radiological diagnosis of renal cell carcinoma, radical nephrectomy was done. Histopathological examination revealed a neoplasm composed purely of epithelioid cells. Based on histopathologi...

BACKGROUND von Hippel-Lindau disease (VHL) is a rare genetic condition caused by the mutation of the VHL tumor suppressor gene and predisposing to various benign or malignant tumors involving mainly central nervous system (CNS) and retinal hemangioblastomas (RHB). Although considered as occult, multiple renal cysts and renal cell carcinoma (RCC) are frequent in VHL, occurring in nearly two-thir...

An epidemic of a malignant neoplasm occurs in northern pike, /„vo.v lucius L., from the Aland Islands of Finland. The neoplasm is morpho logically similar to other pike hernie tumors reported in other areas of the world. Pike normal tissues showed evolutionary conservation with the mammalian intermediate filament proteins cytokeratin, desinili, vimentin, neurofilament protein, and glial fibri...

Pleuropulmonary blastoma is a rare childhood neoplasm accounting for less than one percent of all primary malignant lung tumors of children less than six years of age. Metastasis to CNS, orbit and iris, bone, contralateral lung and rarely adrenal glands, liver, kidney and pancreas has been described. This report presents a rare case of pleuropulmonary blastoma with cervical lymph node metastasi...

Malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) usually presents in the extremities or retroperitoneum. Cases involving the kidney are rare and portend a poor prognosis. Although radical nephrectomy is the most beneficial curative choice for this neoplasm, patients are often treated with adjuvant chemotherapy due to high risk of local recurrence and distant metastases. We describe a case of a 68-year-old ...
