Abstract
BACKGROUND Cutaneous malignant mixed tumor (MMT) is a rare sweat gland-derived tumor characterized by admixed malignant epithelial cells and chondromyxoid stroma. Approximately 50 cases have been described in the literature. Metastasis, which may occur in more than one-third of cases, is most common in the lung. METHODS We summarized the clinicopathologic features of a patient with cutaneous MMT metastatic to the lungs. A literature review of similar cases was completed using Web of Science, Scopus, and PubMed databases. RESULTS A woman in her 70s presented with an enlarging mass on her left eyebrow; histopathologic examination showed large islands of atypical cells with increased mitotic activity, admixed with necrosis on a background of fibrotic and chondromyxoid stroma. Multiple lung nodules were identified during follow-up. Examination of a pulmonary core needle biopsy specimen was consistent with metastatic cutaneous MMT. Literature review identified 10 cases published between 1980 and 2017. Most primary tumors were large (≥4 cm). Local recurrence was uncommon, and the lung was the only metastatic site in 5 cases. Histopathologically, metastatic tumors were described as more cellular, with diminished stromal tissue compared with the primary lesion. CONCLUSION This is 1 of the 11 reports of cutaneous MMT with metastasis to the lungs found in the English-language literature published after 1980. Of note, most reports were published before 1990, making this case study one of the few contemporary descriptions of cutaneous MMT with pulmonary metastases. We think that the present case report will increase the awareness of this rare tumor.

Abstract
Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is a pivotal humoral factor for the regulation of serum phosphate levels and was first identified in patients with autosomal dominant hypophosphatemic rickets and tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO), the most common form of acquired FGF23-related hypophosphatemic rickets/osteomalacia (FGF23rHR). After the identification of FGF23, many other inherited and acquired forms of FGF23rHR were reported. In this review article, the detailed features of each acquired FGF23rHR are discussed, including TIO, ectopic FGF23 syndrome with malignancy, fibrous dysplasia/McCune-Albright syndrome, Schimmelpenning-Feuerstein-Mims syndrome/cutaneous skeletal hypophosphatemia syndrome, intravenous iron preparation-induced FGF23rHR, alcohol consumption-induced FGF23rHR, and post-kidney transplantation hypophosphatemia. Then, an approach for the differential diagnosis and therapeutic options for each disorder are concisely introduced. Currently, the majority of endocrinologists might only consider TIO when encountering patients with acquired FGF23rHR; an adequate differential diagnosis can reduce medical costs and invasive procedures such as positron emission tomography/computed tomography and venous sampling to identify FGF23-producing tumors. Furthermore, some acquired FGF23rHRs, such as intravenous iron preparation/alcohol consumption-induced FGF23rHR, require only cessation of drugs or alcohol to achieve full recovery from osteomalacia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Malignant tumors of the eyelid are much less frequent than benign eyelid alterations. These are frequently incidental findings without symptoms which are often overlooked or misinterpreted by patients. OBJECTIVE This article gives an overview of clinical aspects, diagnostics and treatment of the five most common malignant eyelid tumors and exemplarily explains the essential principles of evidence-based treatment of malignant eyelid tumors. METHODS This narrative review was prepared based on a selective literature search. The depiction of the treatment of eyelid tumors is supported by illustrations of clinical cases. RESULTS The medical history and inspection provide initial indications of malignancy. Every eyelid change suspected of being malignant should be examined histologically to confirm a diagnosis. By far the most common malignant eyelid tumor in Europe is basal cell carcinoma, which metastasizes only in exceptional cases. Squamous cell carcinomas, sebaceous adenocarcinomas, melanomas and Merkel cell carcinomas occur much less frequently. In these cases, potential metastasis in particular must be considered when making the diagnosis and staging has to be initiated. Surgical excision into healthy tissue with tumor-free margins is the gold standard for malignant eyelid tumors. Non-surgical adjuvant or neoadjuvant forms of evidence-based treatment can be initiated based on the individual case to minimize the risk of recurrence and metastasis. CONCLUSION It is essential to recognize eyelid changes at an early stage, to classify them correctly and to initiate the appropriate treatment. The interaction between the general condition and the personal needs of a patient as well as state of the art medicine are the keys to a good personalized treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Enchondromas (EC) of the shoulder joint are benign intraosseous cartilage neoplasms, with atypical cartilaginous tumours (ACT) representing their intermediate counterpart. They are usually found incidentally on clinical imaging performed for other reasons. Thus far the prevalence of ECs of the shoulder has been analysed in only one study reaching a figure of 2.1%. MATERIALS AND METHODS The aim of the current study was to validate this number via retrospective analysis of a 45 times larger, uniform cohort consisting of 21.550 patients who had received an MRI of the shoulder at a single radiologic centre over a time span of 13.2 years. RESULTS Ninety-three of 21.550 patients presented with at least one cartilaginous tumour. Four patients showed two lesions at the same time resulting in a total number of 97 cartilage tumours (89 ECs [91.8%], 8 ACTs [8.2%]). Based on the 93 patients, the overall prevalence was 0.39% for ECs and 0.04% for ACTs. Mean size of the 97 ECs/ACTs was 2.3 ± 1.5 cm; most neoplasms were located in the proximal humerus (96.9%), in the metaphysis (60.8%) and peripherally (56.7%). Of all lesions, 94 tumours (96.9%) were located in the humerus and 3 (3.1%) in the scapula. CONCLUSION Frequency of EC/ACT of the shoulder joint appears to have been overestimated, with the current study revealing a prevalence of 0.43%.

Abstract
Digital papillary adenocarcinoma (DPA) is a rare sweat gland neoplasm that has exceptionally been reported outside acral locations. Recently, human papillomavirus 42 was identified as the main oncogenic driver of DPA. Herein, we report 5 tumors arising in extra-acral locations predominantly in the female anogenital skin. Four patients were female and 1 patient was male. The mean age at the diagnosis time was 65 years (range: 55 to 82 y). Tumors were located on the vulva (n=3), perianal area (n=1), and forearm (n=1). Histologically, all tumors were lobular and mainly solid and composed of sheets of cells with rare focal papillae and frequent glandular structures in a "back-to-back" pattern and lined by atypical basophilic cells. Immunohistochemistry showed diffuse positivity for SOX10. Epithelial membrane antigen and carcinoembryonic antigen highlighted the luminal cells and staining for p63 and p40 revealed a consistent and continuous myoepithelial component around glandular structures. Follow-up was available in 3 cases (mean duration: 12 mo [range: 8 to 16 mo]). One patient developed local recurrence and 1 experienced regional lymph node metastases. HPV Capture Next-generation sequencing revealed the presence of the HPV42 genome in all samples. Viral reads distributions were compatible in the 5 cases with an episomal nature of the viral genome, with a recurrent deletion in the E1 and/or E2 open reading frames. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that digital DPA may rarely present in nonacral locations mainly in the female anogenital area, usually with a more solid pattern as compared with those cases presenting on the digits and it is also associated with HPV42.

Abstract
Pulmonary epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (PEH) is a rare tumour of vascular origin with low to intermediate malignancy. Typical radiological finding on CT is multiple small nodules in bilateral lungs, and some will have punctate calcifications and pleural thickening. The diagnosis of PEH is confirmed by histopathological findings and positive immunohistochemistry staining. We report a case of a woman in her 50s with a medical history of lung adenocarcinoma. Later, regular chest CT during a routine cancer follow-up revealed multiple small pulmonary nodules and increased sizes of these nodules on serial images, initially misdiagnosed as multiple lung metastases. The histopathological diagnosis was made on a pulmonary wedge resection. Finally, PEH was diagnosed on the basis of positive immunohistochemical staining for CD31, ERF and TFE3. In the current study, the clinicopathological features and review of the literature were investigated. Our case highlights the importance of a histological diagnosis to avoid misdiagnosis.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Spindle cell lipoma (SCL) is a benign subcutaneous lipomatous neoplasm with a heterogeneous histologic appearance that varies greatly depending on the amount of fat, collagen, and myxoid stroma, which define the multiple subtypes of SCL, such as fat poor SCL, pseudoangiomatous SCL, and dendritic fibromyxolipoma. Cutaneous lymphoid hyperplasia is a spectrum of benign conditions characterized by reactive B-cell and T-cell cutaneous lymphocytic infiltrates. Cutaneous B-cell lymphoid hyperplasia is a heterogeneous group of non-neoplastic conditions that can be observed as reactive phenomena to infections, medications, allergens, or neoplasms and must be distinguished from cutaneous B-cell lymphomas. Here, we report a novel case of spindle cell lipoma, associated with B-cell primary lymphoid follicular hyperplasia, mixed within the tumor in a peculiar pattern, while discussing potential diagnostic pitfalls with low-grade B-cell lymphomas. This is the first report of such association in the literature.

Abstract
Bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation, or Nora's lesion, is a rare benign tumour of the bone, most commonly described in the hands and feet. We present the case of a female patient in her 20s attending the hand clinic with a sudden onset, atraumatic swelling on the proximal phalanx of her right ring finger. The patient retains good hand function and remains asymptomatic 3 months after surgical excision. Our case highlights the importance of being aware of this diagnosis and differentiating it from other malignant, as well as benign tumours of the hand.

BACKGROUND The patient was a 65-year-old White woman who presented to dermatology with a painless, rapidly growing exophytic nodule on her left upper cheek. AIMS/PURPOSE In this case report, we aim to demonstrate the difficulty of diagnosing Epstein-Barr virus-negative extranodal NK cell lymphomas given the broad differential of NK cell lymphomas and the rarity of EBV-negative extranodal NK cell lymphoma. METHODS Immunohistochemical studies confirmed the diagnosis of cutaneous, extranodal NK cell lymphoma. Interestingly, Epstein-Barr virus in situ hybridization was negative, which is unusual for most NK cell lymphomas. RESULTS/CONCLUSIONS In our view, a combination of immunohistochemistry, clonality assessment, sequencing, and flow cytometric studies is required.

Abstract
Background and Objectives: Cervical squamous cell carcinoma and endocervical adenocarcinoma (CESC) are malignant disorders with adverse prognoses for advanced patients. Anoikis, which is involved in tumor metastasis, facilitates the survival and separation of tumor cells from their initial site. Unfortunately, it is rarely studied, and in the literature, studies have only addressed the prognosis character of anoikis for patients with CESC. Materials and Methods: We utilized anoikis-related genes (ANRGs) to construct a prognostic signature in CESC patients that were selected from the Genecards and Harmonizome portals. Furthermore, we revealed the underlying clinical value of this signature for clinical maneuvers by providing clinical specialists with an innovative nomogram on the basis of ANRGs. Finally, we investigated the immune microenvironment and drug sensitivity in different risk groups. Results: We screened six genes from fifty-eight anoikis-related differentially expressed genes in the TCGA-CESC cohort, and we constructed a prognostic signature. Then, we built a nomogram combined with CESC clinicopathological traits and risk scores, which demonstrated that this model may improve the prognosis of CESC patients in clinical therapy. Next, the prognostic risk scores were confirmed to be an independent prognostic indicator. Additionally, we programmed a series of analyses, which included immune infiltration analysis, therapy-related analysis, and GSVA enrichment analysis, to identify the functions and mechanisms of the prognostic models during the progression of cancer in CESC patients. Finally, we performed quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) to verify the six ANRGs. Conclusions: The present discovery verified that the predictive 6-anoikis-related gene (6-ANRG) signature and nomogram serve as imperative factors that might notably impact a CESC patient's prognosis, and they may be able to provide new clinical evidence to assume the role of underlying biological biomarkers and thus become indispensable indicators for prospective diagnoses and advancing therapy.

Abstract
Background. Oncogenic osteomalacia (OO), also known as tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO), is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome caused by mesechymal tumors secreting fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23). Common in middle age, these tumors are often disclosed by progressive generalized bone pain and muscle weakness, along with an altered biochemical profile. Despite its characteristic presentation, the disease is often underrecognized with delayed onset of surgical or pharmacological intervention that can have serious repercussions on the patients' health and quality of life. Case presentation. We describe the case of a 65-year-old Caucasian man presenting TIO with intracranial and spinal localizations and Fanconi-like aminoaciduria. The condition was misdiagnosed and mistreated for three years, leading to loss of self-sufficiency and depression. Following proper identification, the spinal mass was excised with complete remission of the functional symptoms. As it was not possible to remove the intracranial lesion, the patient was treated conservatively with calcitriol and phosphorous supplements that granted good metabolic control up to the time of a recent follow-up visit (at 5 years). Conclusions. The finding of an altered amino acid profile, not usually reported in these cases, should prompt clinicians to a wider usage of these molecules as suitable candidates for metabolic diseases. In addition to providing central information, they are easy to obtain and inexpensive to analyze. Such determination could help to speed up the diagnostic process, as a long-lasting history of misdiagnosis and mistreatments can lead primarily to clinical worsening, but also to the use of expensive, useless medications with side effects that contribute to poor patient health.

Abstract
Conjunctival amelanotic malignant melanoma is a rare form of melanoma, which lacks visible pigment and is commonly located underneath the eyelids in the bulbar conjunctiva. In this report, we described a case of a Caucasian women in her 70s who presented with unilateral irritation and tenderness following cataract surgery. On eversion of the eyelid, two elevated pink lesions were noted. Tumour - Node - Metastasis staging with the American Joint Committee on Cancer staging system eighth edition was T3C and required multiple excisions and reconstruction procedures. This case exemplified the diagnostic pitfall of conjunctival amelanotic malignant melanoma, which is a potentially life-threatening disease and the importance of histopathology in the diagnostic process.

Abstract
Background and Objectives: Cervical squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) usually showed an infiltrative growth pattern into endocervical stroma. In rare cases, SCC spreads superficially as an intraepithelial lesion to proximal uterine segments, and more rarely, involves invasive and more aggressive behavior on secondary sites. Materials and Methods: In this study, we present the case of an interesting form of cervical SCC growth and we discuss the possible reasons for that presentation. Results: After clinical examination and repeated histomorphological analysis, we found remarkable cervical epithelial dysplasia (a high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion-H-SIL). A histopathology report after conization and hysterectomy showed squamocellular carcinoma with microinvasive focuses. Interestingly, squamocellular carcinoma was found in the proximal uterine and adnexal structure, as well as intraepithelial and microinvasive lesions. Conclusions: Our study described a rare presentation of primary cervical SCC with unusual adnexal involvement. This pattern of tumor growth should be especially considered for patients who are proposed for sparing surgical procedures. A detailed and multidisciplinary approach for every patient is very important because unpredictable cases are present. However, they are rare.

Abstract
The effective treatment of advanced cervical cancer remains challenging. Herein, single-nucleus RNA sequencing (snRNA-seq) and SpaTial enhanced resolution omics-sequencing (Stereo-seq) are used to investigate the immunological microenvironment of cervical squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC). The expression levels of most immune suppressive genes in the tumor and inflammation areas of CSCC are not significantly higher than those in the non-cancer samples, except for LGALS9 and IDO1. Stronger signals of CD56+ NK cells and immature dendritic cells are found in the hypermetabolic tumor areas, whereas more eosinophils, immature B cells, and Treg cells are found in the hypometabolic tumor areas. Moreover, a cluster of pro-tumorigenic cancer-associated myofibroblasts (myCAFs) are identified. The myCAFs may support the growth and metastasis of tumors by inhibiting lymphocyte infiltration and remodeling of the tumor extracellular matrix. Furthermore, these myCAFs are associated with poorer survival probability in patients with CSCC, predict resistance to immunotherapy, and might be present in a small fraction (< 30%) of patients with advanced cancer. Immunohistochemistry and multiplex immunofluorescence staining are conducted to validate the spatial distribution and potential function of myCAFs. Collectively, these findings enhance the understanding of the immunological microenvironment of CSCC and shed light on the treatment of advanced CSCC.

Abstract
ABSTRACT 68Ga-FAPI is a newly developed tumor imaging agent with promising clinical applications. However, benign lesions may also show increased FAPI activity. We accidentally discovered that Schmorl node expressed FAPI activity in a patient with sweat gland cancer. Thus, greater awareness is needed that Schmorl nodes are a potential reason for false-positive uptake on 68Ga-FAPI PET/CT.

Abstract
Mesenchymal chondrosarcoma (MC) is a rare cartilaginous tumour that occurs in the extraskeletal locations in about one-third of cases. It is aggressive in behaviour and may involve the lower extremities, central nervous system or spine. Mesenchymal tumours are known for distant metastasis; however, metastasis to bilateral kidneys after treatment has not been reported earlier. We present a case of a soft-tissue intramuscular MC of the thigh in a 38-year-old patient which had been surgically excised after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. The patient presented with bilateral dense calcified renal masses after 6 years, which were cytologically proven as MC metastases. In the evaluation of bilateral calcified renal masses in patients with a history of MC, metastasis should be considered.

Abstract
The case of an 82-year-old man who suffered from bone pain is reported. This was due to osteomalacia with hypophosphatemia. The cause was renal phosphate wasting mediated by fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) with oncogenic osteomalacia. The mesenchymal tumor could be detected at the elbow by positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT) scanning with 68 Ga-DOTATATE. After resection of this hemangiopericytoma (phosphaturic mesenchymal tumor, PMT) the phosphate level quickly returned to normal.

Abstract
Primary cutaneous sarcomas are a heterogenous group of malignant soft tissue tumours arising in the dermal and subcutaneous layers of the skin. These tumours are rare and have a variety of clinical manifestations. They differ from deep soft tissue sarcomas in terms of prognosis, which for most types of cutaneous sarcomas is favourable. The tumours are primarily managed by complete surgical excision with margin control. The purpose of this review is to present some of these rare tumors and describe their management.

Abstract
Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a rare, acquired condition of phosphate wasting due to phosphaturic mesenchymal tumors. Because the incidence and prevalence of TIO is unknown, we conducted an observational cohort study using national Danish health registers for the period 2008 to 2018 to obtain such information. The study also aimed to describe the demographics of the TIO population and the prognosis. The operational definition was based on hypophosphatemia or adult osteomalacia diagnoses, combined with prescriptions used in the initial management and procedures consistent with advanced imaging used for locating tumors. The incidence of TIO in Denmark was found to be below 0.13 per 100,000 person years for the total population of the country and 0.10 per 100,000 in adult-onset disease. The prevalence of TIO was estimated to be no more than 0.70 per 100,000 persons for the total population and 0.43 per 100,000 in adults. In 2018, there were a maximum of nine new cases of TIO in Danish adults. Mortality was low but few patients fulfilled the protocol cure criterion during the observation period. TIO has no ICD-10 code and limitations to the study include lack of information on serum biochemistry and on the use of phosphate supplements. Strengths include the use of long-term longitudinal, national hospital and prescription data from a country with universal healthcare. Given the very small patient population with TIO and the known delay to diagnosis and cure, management of patients with suspected TIO should be centralized.

Abstract
CASE This is a case of a 44-year-old man with 10 years of history of painful callus-like swellings of bilateral index fingers. Sudden enlargement of the left index finger prompted biopsy, which revealed aggressive digital papillary adenocarcinoma (ADPA) that was treated with partial amputation. Biopsy of the contralateral finger revealed acanthotic skin with no evidence of malignancy. CONCLUSION Several case reports cite antecedent insult and chronic swelling before diagnosis. We describe a case of bilateral lesions with similar gross appearances, a long history of occupational repetitive trauma, and sudden enlargement of 1 lesion leading to the diagnosis of ADPA.

Abstract
This case report concerns a 34-year-old woman who had been diagnosed with ankylosing spondylitis (AS), fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS), osteoarthritis (OA), lumbar disc herniation and the like in different hospitals during the past 18 months. She had progressive osteoarthrosis, significant muscle weakness, gait abnormalities in weightbearing areas, however without typical inflammatory low back pain, while the treatment with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) was invalid, with normal inflammation index, negative results for rheumatic factor (RF) and human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B27, and normal erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) and C-reactive protein (CRP). She had hyphosphatemia, normal serum calcium, 1,25-(OH)2-D3 reduction, elevated alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and normal parathyroid hormone (PTH), however with elevated urinary phosphorus. Finally, the medial thigh nodule was found in the subcutaneous of her inner leg by careful examination and imaging scans including B-ultrasound and PET/CT. The final pathology confirmed that the nodule was phosphate urinary mesenchymal tumors. After the tumor was removed, the patient was treated with anti-osteoporosis and phosphorus supplementation. The symptoms of bone pain and muscle weakness were alleviated, and hypophosphatemia was corrected. It was confirmed that the patient had low-phosphorus osteomalacia due to tumor. Tumor-induced hypophosphatemia osteomalacia (TIO) was a rare paraneoplastic syndrome which was caused by excessive phosphorus excretion induced by the tumor, and was thus categorized as an acquired hypophosphatemic osteomalacia. TIO had an occult onset and was associated with a high rate of misdiagnosis, although TIO has some typical clinical features. Early diagnosis, correctly positioning of the tumor, and surgical resection can achieve good outcomes.

Abstract
Tumor-induced osteomalacia (TIO) is a rare paraneoplastic disease characterized by hypophosphatemia and skeletal undermineralization. Overproduction of fibroblast growth factor 23( FGF23) from the responsible tumor is reported to be a causative factor. Removing the tumor is the only effective treatment for TIO, but identifying the tumor is sometimes difficult. A 43-year-old man complained of heel pain 4 years earlier, and the pain gradually expanded to the whole body. As a blood test showed the elevation of the serum FGF23 level and hypophosphatemia, he was diagnosed with FGF23-related hypophosphatemia. Chest computed tomography (CT) showed a 10-mm nodule in the right chest wall. Venous sampling for FGF23 revealed considerable elevation of the FGF23 level in the right subclavian vein. Therefore, a chest wall tumor was suspected as the tumor responsible for TIO, and surgical resection was performed. After surgery, hypophosphatemia improved within several days, and the FGF23 level also normalized.

Abstract
The ultrastructure of a dog mastocytoma examined with the electron microscope after fixation in glutaraldehyde, post-fixation in osmiumtetroxide and butyl-methyl methacrylate embedding is described. The ultrastructural characteristics with particular regard to the submicroscopic morphology of specific granules were studied in details, also with the aid of comparative observations on thick sections stained by Giemsa and toluidine blue. On the basis of their observations, the authors describe the following characteristics of neoplastic mastcells: microvilli, a well-developed Golgi region, centrioles, mithocondria, ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum and 4 different types of granules. Other mastcells, with various degree of regressive phoenomena, had almost no microvilli, multiple interruptions of plasma membrane, mithocondrial swelling as well as vacuolar and fibrillar aspect of the cytoplasm. The morphology of different types of intracytoplasmic granules is discussed also in the light of parallel observations made by other authors. Expulsions of granules were not observed. The hypothesis of the phospholipidic nature of the lamellar component of granules is suggested.

Abstract
Utilizing a modified capillary tube technique, analysis revealed a significantly higher mean blood coagulation time in a group of 14 dogs with mastocytoma when compared to the mean coagulation time of 70 non-mastocytoma dogs. In dogs with mastocytoma, approximately one third had intermediate size tumors and a prolonged mean coagulation time and two thirds had a mean coagulation time that did not differ significantly from the mean of the non-mastocytoma dogs. Evidence for heparin release and possible heparin inactivating mechanisms is reviewed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GISTs), previously classified as benign or malignant smooth muscle tumours, are the most common mesenchymal tumours of the gastrointestinal tract. GISTs express a growth factor receptor with tyrosine kinase activity, termed KIT. Mutations of KIT are common in malignant GISTs and lead to constitutional activation of tyrosine kinase function, which causes cellular proliferation and resistance to apoptosis. GISTs are notoriously unresponsive to chemotherapy and, until the recent introduction of the KIT inhibitor imatinib, there has been no effective therapy for advanced, metastatic disease. METHODS A Medline literature search was preformed to locate all articles relating to gastrointestinal tumours, GISTs, KIT and imatinib. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS The 5-year survival rate after complete resection of GISTs is approximately 50 per cent. The median duration of survival for patients with a metastatic GIST is approximately 20 months, and 9-12 months for patients with local recurrence. Phase II trials have investigated the effect of imatinib on irresectable or metastatic GISTs. In these trials more than 50 per cent of patients responded to imatinib within a few months and approximately 12 per cent had disease progression. Uptake of [(18)F]fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose demonstrated by positron emission tomography has been found to be reduced after starting imatinib. The potential for cure and the optimal length of treatment is currently unknown. Imatinib is the first effective systemic therapy for metastatic and locally irresectable GISTs. Large multi-institutional clinical trials to investigate the efficacy of imatinib as adjuvant or neoadjuvant therapy for GISTs are now required.

Abstract
An analysis of the types of tumour in children in the Manchester hospital region indicates that approximately two-thirds arose in the reticuloendothelial or nervous systems. The high mortality is largely due to the nature or site of the tumours, the majority of which cannot be eradicated by purely local measures. The most likely means of causing any significant improvement would be by greater centralization in the treatment of these children.

Abstract
There has been a continuous acceleration of medical/scientific inquiry and of actual improvements in management of patients with neoplasms of the mesenchymal tissues over the last four decades. The number of publications in this field has increased from 1140 in 1970 and then to 1700 in 1990. Important advances discussed over this period include: establishment of sarcoma teams in major oncology centers; staging systems for both soft tissue and osseous sarcomas; demonstration of genetic determinants in the development of, at least, some of the sarcomas; the revolutionary change in quality of diagnostic imaging by the introduction of CT and MRI; use of immunohistochemistry in diagnostic pathology; the drastic gains in survival of patients with osteogenic sarcoma, Ewing's sarcoma and rhabdomyosarcoma due to the efficacy of multi-drug and multi-cycle chemotherapy protocols; major advances in surgical techniques which have made limb salvage practical; cell lines derived from human sarcomas have been shown to have in vitro radiation sensitivity comparable to that of cell lines from epithelial tumors; the combination of conservative surgery and moderate doses of radiation yields local control and survival results equivalent to that of radical surgery with a much improved functional and cosmetic outcome; intra-operative electron beam radiation therapy improves the outcome of patients with retroperitoneal sarcomas when given after grossly complete resection combined with external beam radiation therapy (pre- or postoperatively); radiation is a highly effective alternative to extensive surgery for desmoid tumors; local control of giant cell tumors by modern radiation techniques is approximately 80% and the incidence of radiation induced tumors at 10 years is approximately 3%; to decrease the incidence of radiation induced sarcoma, resection has replaced radiation in the management of selected patients with primary Ewing's sarcoma when the response to chemotherapy has been excellent and the morbidity/functional decrement consequent upon the surgery judged reasonable; proton beam radiation therapy has been accepted as being superior to conventional external beam radiation therapy for chondrosarcoma and chordoma of the skull base; and attempts to utilize brachytherapy for sarcomas of the spine/sacrum appear to offer promise. Projected advances in the coming two decades includes:Designation of sarcoma type on genetic characterization; molecular genetics will provide prognostic information as to probability of distant metastasis, response to chemotherapeutic agents and radiation; important further reductions in the radiation treatment volume due to the many technical developments entering, or soon to enter the clinic; non-invasive assessment of the response to chemotherapy; much increased appreciation of the late sequella of treatment, both radiation and chemotherapy.

Abstract
One hundred twenty patients with primary retrorectal tumors (79 congenital, 14 neurogenic, 13 osseous, and 14 miscellaneous) had their initial treatment at the Mayo Clinic from 1960 to 1979. The mean age was 43 years (100 patients were adults). Female predominance was associated with congenital cysts (15:1) and male predominance with chordomas (5:1). Forty-three percent of the patients had malignant lesions. No dermoid cysts were found in this series. Diagnosis was made by digital examination or sacral radiographs in all patients. Computed tomography scan was the most important diagnostic method; the rate of positive findings was 100 percent in 20 patients. Approach to the tumor was posterior in 79 of 102 patients in whom resection was possible. Ten of 66 patients with benign tumors had recurrence. The five-year survival rate for patients with chordomas was 75 percent and for patients with other malignant lesions was 17 percent. Because preoperative biopsy can cause tumor spread, abscess, fecal fistula, or meningitis, it should not be performed if tumors are potentially resectable. Whenever possible, total resection should be done.
