desmoid tumor of breast is a rare benign, locally aggressive tumor with a high recurrence rate. it has been associated with scar from previous breast surgery or trauma. especially in breast cancer patients with previous operation history, it may simulate recurrent breast cancer clinically and radiologically. we presented multimodality imaging findings (ultrasound, computed tomography, magnetic ...

results there was no statistical difference between the 2 groups with respect to the recurrence rate (p > 0.05). although the recurrence interval was longer for the metformin group, this increase was not statistical significant (p > 0.05). furthermore, tumor recurrence had no correlation with sex or the grade of the tumors. conclusions according to our findings, it seems that metformin has no c...

Background: Aggressive angiomyxoma is a rare mesenchymal tumor with extensive local invasion. It often presents with a lump in the perineal area and pelvic. Since it often does not involve adjacent organs such as the urethra and anus, does not cause obstructive symptoms. Its incidence is 6 times higher in women than men. This tumor grows slowly and has a slight tendency to metastasize. However,...

background:   primary bone lymphoma or non-hodgkin lymphoma of bone is a rare disease. there are only a few case series of stage ie of this condition in medical literature. the aim of this study is to determine the rate of survival   for stage ie after combined modality treatment, the rate of local recurrence, and the results of limb salvage in cases   of local recurrence.     methods:   we col...

adenoid cystic carcinoma is an uncommon, slow growing malignant salivary gland tumor that is characterized by wide local infiltration, perineural spread, propensity to local recurrence anddistant metastasis. in this paper, the authors present a case of adenoid cystic carcinoma affecting the palate and involving the maxillary sinus in a 60‑year‑old male patient along with a brief reviewof litera...

background: phyllodes tumors are uncommon neoplasms of the breast. data about their outcome is limited. this study aims to evaluate patients diagnosed with phyllodes tumors in terms of local recurrence, distant metastasis and overall survival. methods: we retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 129 women with phyllodes tumors who referred to our center from 1999 to 2013. clinical and pa...
