metastasis of gastroesphageal junction (gej) adenocarcinoma in skeletal muscle is rare and primary sites for skeletal muscle metastases are usually lung, renal and colorectal cancer. we have encountered with the first case report of solitary psoas muscle metastasis of gej adenocarcinoma. here we describe a 65 years old man was diagnosed with gej adenocarcinoma in tertiary hospital, tehran, iran...

Metastasis of gastroesphageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma in skeletal muscle is rare and primary sites for skeletal muscle metastases are usually lung, renal and colorectal cancer. We have encountered with the first case report of solitary psoas muscle metastasis of GEJ adenocarcinoma. Here we describe a 65 years old man was diagnosed with GEJ adenocarcinoma in tertiary hospital, Tehran, Iran...

rhabdomyosarcomas are the most common soft tissue sarcoma in adult and children that accompany with skeletal muscle differentiation. skin metastasis of rhabdomyosarcomas is unusual and has only been sporadically reported in literature. in this paper we present a case of skin metastasis of rhabdomyosarcoma in an 8-year-old girl that has treated with chemotherapy.

pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (pnet) are uncommon pancreatic neoplasms, accounting for 1-2% of all pancreatic tumors. however, they have a better prognosis and long-term survival compared to exocrine pancreatic cancer. pnets can be divided into functional or non-functional based upon whether or not they excrete active substances relevant to specific clinical syndromes. skeletal muscle metast...

Breast cancer rarely metastasizes to skeletal muscle. Moreover, muscle is a rare site of metastasis for any type cancer. In this study, we report an unexpected finding enlarged mass in the gluteus maximus asymptomatic patient with distant history breast The was observed during computed tomography evaluation preparation non-oncologic procedure. Biopsy and pathological investigation confirmed met...

The skeletal muscle is an unusual site for metastasis from breast cancer. We present two cases of breast cancer that relapsed as skeletal muscle metastasis without other distant organ metastasis. We performed the core needle biopsy of metastatic sites and confirmed discordance in estrogen receptor, progesterone receptors, and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 expression between primary b...

it has been reported that cither lithium or verapamil can potentiate the neuromuscular blocking activity of certain neuromuscular blockers. in the present investigation, possible interaction of verapamil with lithium has been described. the dose ■ response effects of verapamil and lithium on diaphragmatic contractility were assessed in vitro. mechanical responses of the muscle to indirect (nerv...

objective(s): pregabalin (pgb) is a new antiepileptic drug that has received fda approval for patient who suffers from central neuropathic pain, partial seizures, generalized anxiety disorder, fibromyalgia and sleep disorders. this study was undertaken to evaluate the possible adverse effects of pgb on the muscular system of mice. materials and methods: to evaluate the effect of pgb on skeletal...

intramuscular cavernous hemangiomas represent less than 1% of all hemangiomas. typical presentation is a soft-tissue mass and/or pain without cutaneous changes. whereas calcification of hemangiomas is common; ossification of these lesions is very rare. we describe a case of ossified intramuscular hemangioma of quadriceps presented with painless knee extension contracture and thigh mass.

AIM To define the radiological imaging features and clinical findings of the patients with skeletal muscle metastasis. MATERIALS AND METHODS 4454 computed tomography (CT), 1802 magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and 2569 positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) imaging studies of the oncology patients performed between March 2009 and July 2012 in the Radiology and Nuclear Medic...
