metastatic lesions represent 1-8% of all malignant tumors of the mouth and jaws, which are regarded as rare sites of metastases from different primary tumors. metastases in mouth soft tissue are also rare, and within these it is on the gums where they more frequently occur. primary tumors which metastasize to the mouth are most commonly: lung, breast, and kidney. clear cell carcinoma is the mos...

SUMMARY Ten cases of cystic meningioma are reported and the literature is reviewed. The cyst formation with meningioma is rarely seen and are frequently associated with glial or metastatic tumor. The computerized tomography appearance of our cases also resembling glial and metastatic appearance of our cases also resembling glial and metastatic tumor. The incidence of microcystic and cystic cha...

Background: CD4+ and CD8+ T cells are the main types of lymphocytes in cell-mediated immunity and play a central role in the induction of efficient immune responses against tumors. The frequencies of T cell subtypes in the peripheral blood and tumor tissues, and draining lymph nodes (dLN) can be considered as useful markers for evaluation of the immune system in cancers. Methods: In this study,...

Prognosis of metastatic breast cancer is very poor which urges the necessity to develop novel potential drug candidates. We assessed two compounds with tri-aryl structures (A and B) for their potency to reduce primary breast tumor growth and lung metastasis in 4T1 mice model. MTT assay, 4T1 mammary mouse model and immunohistochemistry experiments were used in this study. In vitro results exhibi...

breast cancer is the most common cancer in women worldwide. breast cancer in one third of all patients will go on to metastasis, which is the main cause of mortality in cancer cases. tumor cells detach from primary tumor and enter into the circulation as circulating tumor cells (ctcs) which can form metastatic lesions. in this study, the expression of ck-19 gene in blood samples of metastatic b...

colorectal cancer most commonly metastasizes to the liver and lung. metastatic colon carcinoma (mcc) to the breast is extremely rare. krukenberg tumor is an uncommon metastatic tumor of the ovary. case presentation: a 38 years woman presented with abdominal pain. in evaluation colon cancer was diagnosed at stage 3. folfox chemotherapy was done. after one year she developed krukenberg tumor. few...

Background: Metastatic carcinomas to the upper jaw region are very rare and unfortunately occur in advanced stages of malignancies. Pancoast tumor is a challenging subset of lung carcinoma commonly followed by distant metastasis. Since the metastatic lesion of our patient was very huge and unusual, we decided to report the case. Case Presentation: Our patient was a middle-aged heavy smoker mal...

Introduction: Thermal ablation by microwave (MWA) has proven efficacy in treatment of primary and metastatic cancers. Soft tissue tumors could be ablated completely using MWA. However, bony tissue metastasis particularly spinal vertebral metastasis ablation has not reported yet. Case presentation: A 50 year old male patient with primary diagnosed colon cancer undergone surgical resection of ...
