Leiomyosarcoma in soft tissue has only been reported in humans or animals. We performed pathological examination of a 3-years-old male squirrel monkey which had a large mass in the right axilla. The mass in the right axilla was surgically resected but it soon reoccurred. This tumor was diagnosed as a leiomyosarcoma based on histopathology and immunohistochemistry using the expression of alpha-s...

Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common skin cancer with a steadily increasing incidence. Ultraviolet radiation is considered the single most important risk factor for BCC, because the tumor occurs most frequently in sun-exposed areas of the body, with approximately four of five BCCs occurring on the face. BCC occurs infrequently in non-sun-exposed skin. The axilla is one of the most sun-...

Axillary node status is the most important prognostic information regarding treatment and prognosis for breast cancer patients. Localisation and number of involved lymph nodes add further information and are of prognostic relevance as well. The problem of the involvement of different axilla levels as well as skip metastases are discussed. Sentinel lymph node dissection is still considered inves...

were treated in the Campbell Hospital but only two cases developed contractures, one in the axilla and one in the fingers and both left the hospital before treatment was complete. All the same contractures will form in some cases due either to wrong treatment or to want of facilities for proper treatment. Twelve cases were treated by me in the Campbell Hospital in 1946, all of whom were healthy...

A case of extramammary Paget's disease of the axilla in an 84-year-old patient is presented. No underlying carcinoma was found and the lesion was treated successfully by wide local excision. Immunohistochemical staining showed nuclear immunoreactivity for c-myc and cytoplasmic staining for CEA, EMA, CAM 5.2, EGRF, c-erbB-2 and pan-cytokeratin in all the Paget cells. No immunoreactivity of the l...

ISSN 0001-5555 Condylomata acuminata (CA) are sexually transmitted benign warty lesions that usually affect the anogenital epithelium. Low-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, such as HPV type 6 or 11, is associated with the disease (1). These lesions exhibit a small papular, filiform or ...

Abstract Case Summary Melanoma of the abdominal wall is not uncommon, and sentinel lymph nodes are usually located in lymphatic drainage basins axilla or inguinal region. Less frequently, interval can be found along vessels between primary cancer nearest basin. We present case a 53-year-old female with silicone breast implants who underwent scar excision node biopsy for 1mm Breslow thickness su...
