Renal cell carcinoma comprises about 2% of adult tumors. The overall 10-year survival rate of patients with RCC after nephrectomy is about 18-27%. The incidence of metastasis of initial RCC is about 24-28%, but this rate after nephrectomy is as high as 51%. The most common site of recurrence is the lung, however liver and bone metastases are common.There are many reported cases with late metast...

BACKGROUND Non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) mainly includes lung squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma. This study aimed to investigate the difference between the expression of Cbl-b in lung squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma. MATERIAL AND METHODS The clinical features and survival data of NSCLC patients and Cbl-b mRNA (FPKM) were obtained from the TCGA database. Then, lung sq...

Introduction: Primary small cell carcinoma of theesophagus (PSCEC) associated with paraneoplastic sweating syndrome is a rare disease characterized with rapid growth rate, metastasis at the time of diagnosis, and poor prognosis. The lung is the most common site for small cell carcinoma but this malignancy includes 0.1% to 1% of all gastrointestinal and 0.8% to 2.7% of esophageal malignancies. ...

UNLABELLED INTRODUCTION Squamous cell carcinoma of the lung represents 30% of all non-small cell lung carcinomas. It arises from dysplasia of squamous epithelium of the bronchi and is strongly associated with cigarette smoking. Squamous cell carcinoma of the lung is known to produce metastases in the brain parenchyma. CASE PRESENTATION We present the case of an 80-year-old indigenous Austr...

BACKGROUND Squamous cell lung carcinomas account for approximately 25% of new lung carcinoma cases and 40,000 deaths per year in the United States. Although there are multiple genomically targeted therapies for lung adenocarcinoma, none has yet been reported in squamous cell lung carcinoma. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Using SNP array analysis, we found that a region of chromosome segment 8...

-------------------------------------------------------------------ABSTRACT-------------------------------------------------------------Cancers is defined as the uncontrolled cell divisions. Cell does not grow maturely and destined to uncontrolled cell growth. When these cells of lungs grow uncontrolled it is called lung cancer. Nowadays mortality rate due to lung cancer is increasing day by da...

purpose: to define the demographic and clinical features of eyelid masses at a referral hospital over a 10-year period. methods: this is a retrospective record-based study on patients with eyelid masses during the above-mentioned period. data on epidemiologic and clinical features and therapeutic approaches were collected and analyzed. results: 551 patients were included in the study from which...

Background: A new treatment approach for most patients who have undergone early stage non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC), is wedge resection plus permanent implant brachytherapy. However, the specification of dose to medium at low energies especially in heterogeneous lung is unclear yet.Objective: The present study aims to modify source strength for different configurations of 125I and 103...

zinc has an important role in skin health and its deficiency reduces immunity. to evaluate levels of zinc in squamous cell carcinoma (scc) and basal cell carcinoma (bcc) of skin, we studied 44 bcc and 38 scc cases together with 33 controls. blood samples were taken and after separation of serum, levels of zinc, albumin and total protein were measured by atomic absorption, albumin kit and reflec...
