Successful surgery with preservation of laryngeal function in a patient with collision primary squamous cell carcinoma and adenoid cystic carcinoma in the hypopharynx and synchronous esophageal carcinoma: A case report. Head Neck 2023; 45:E53-E60. [PMID: 37671671 DOI: 10.1002/hed.27507] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2023] [Revised: 07/28/2023] [Accepted: 08/24/2023] [Indexed: 09/07/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The definition of "collision tumor" is the coexistence of two histologically and morphologically distinct tumors within the same anatomical area without histological admixture. Collision tumors featuring primary squamous cell and adenoid cystic carcinomas of the hypopharynx, combined with synchronous esophageal carcinoma, are very rare. METHODS We describe a patient with a collision tumor of the hypopharynx and synchronous esophageal carcinoma who underwent partial laryngectomy, with preservation of laryngeal function, and radical esophageal resection featuring esophageal reconstruction using a gastric tube. Surgery was successful. RESULTS Postoperative radiotherapy was recommended after surgery; the patient exhibited no recurrence or distant metastasis to the 17-month follow-up. CONCLUSION To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of collision of primary squamous cell carcinoma and adenoid cystic carcinoma in the hypopharynx and synchronous esophageal carcinoma. We performed appropriate surgery and prescribed postoperative radiotherapy. This preserved laryngeal function.

A case of coexistent poorly differentiated adenosquamous carcinoma (glassy cell carcinoma), usual-type adenocarcinoma, and squamous cell carcinoma in situ of the cervix. Med Mol Morphol 2023; 56:217-224. [PMID: 37129713 PMCID: PMC10415468 DOI: 10.1007/s00795-023-00354-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/23/2023] [Accepted: 04/16/2023] [Indexed: 05/03/2023]
Abstract
Poorly differentiated adenosquamous carcinoma (glassy cell carcinoma) of the cervix is extremely rare, accounting for 1-2% of all cervical cancers. Herein, we report a case with coexistent poorly differentiated adenosquamous carcinoma (glassy cell carcinoma), "usual-type" adenocarcinoma, and squamous cell carcinoma in situ of the cervix. A female patient in her 60 s was referred to our hospital and diagnosed with poorly differentiated adenosquamous carcinoma based on cervical cytology and biopsy. The tumor was classified as clinical stage IB1 cervical cancer following magnetic resonance imaging; radical hysterectomy was performed. Histopathological examination revealed poorly differentiated adenosquamous carcinoma (glassy cell carcinoma), usual-type adenocarcinoma, and squamous cell carcinoma in situ, all coexisting. All carcinoma regions showed identical sizes to high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) in fragment analysis. The patient is currently alive, without evidence of recurrence, 31 months post surgery. In this case, three different carcinomas coexisted. Fragment analysis of the patient's HPV status suggested that all carcinomas were related to an infection with the same high-risk HPV type. To determine the precise mechanism of tumor development, i.e., whether the tumors were of the mixed or collision type, further studies are needed, including clonal analysis for the loss of heterozygosity pattern.

Abstract
Introduction cervical cancer is a public health problem in Cameroon, ranking as the 2nd most frequent cancer. The purpose of our study was to describe the epidemiological and clinical characteristics of patients with cervical cancer at the Douala General Hospital in Cameroon. Method we conducted a retrospective study over the period 1 January 2016 to 31 December 2017. Results the study enrolled 357 women. Patients´ age ranged from 25 to 88 years, with an average age of 52.82 ± 12.36 years. Patients from the Western Region were more heavily represented, with a percentage of 42.2% (n= 124/294). The majority of them were unemployed housekeepers (57.3%; n=200/341). The age of first sexual intercourse was recorded for only 37% (n=133/357) of the study population, with an average age of 16.73 ± 2.16 years; while the average age on giving birth to the first child was 18.92 ± 3.44 years. On the other hand, 6.5% (n=11/169) of patients were smokers, while 44% (n=73/166) were alcohol abusers. Squamous cell carcinoma was the most common histologic type (85.6%; n=255/298). The most frequent stage at diagnosis was stage IIB (22.3%, n=71/319) followed by stage IIIB (21.6%; n=69/319). Conclusion in Cameroon, cervical cancer commonly occurs in unemployed adult women and it is associated with an advanced-stage diagnosis. Hence the need to improve awareness of prevention and early diagnosis.

J Neurol Surg Rep 2022; 83:e44-e49.

Abstract
Introduction
Collision tumors present as histologically different juxtaposed neoplasms within the same anatomical region, independent of the adjacent cell population. De novo intracranial collision tumors involving metachronous primary brain neoplasms alongside dural meningiomatosis are not well documented in the literature.
Clinical Presentation
We present staged surgical management of a 72-year-old female with known left hemispheric stable dural-based convexity mass lesions over 10 years and new-onset expressive aphasia and headaches. MRI had revealed left supratentorial dural-based enhanced masses consistent with en plaque meningiomatosis. Embolization angiography showed an unusual tumor blush from an aberrant branch of anterior cerebral artery suggesting a deeper focal intra-axial nature; a stage 1 craniotomy for dural-based tumor resection was completed with diagnosis of a meningioma (WHO grade 1). Intraoperatively, a distinct intra-axial deep discrete lesion was verified stereotactically, concordant with the location of tumor blush. The patient made a complete neurological recovery from a transient postoperative supplemental motor area syndrome in a week. Subsequent postoperative follow-up showed worsening of right hemiparesis and MRI showed an increase in residual lesion size and perilesional edema, which prompted a stage 2 radical resection of a glioblastoma, WHO grade 4. She improved neurologically after surgery with steroids and physical therapy. At 15 months following adjuvant therapy, she remains neurologically intact throughout the postoperative course, with no recurrent tumor on MRI.
Conclusion
A de novo glioblastoma presented as a masquerading lesion within hemispheric convexity meningiomatosis in an elderly patient with no prior radiation/phakomatosis, inciting a non-causal juxtapositional coexistence. The authors highlight rare pathognomonic angiographic findings and the rationale for two-staged resections of these collision lesions that led to excellent clinicoradiological outcome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Collision carcinoma is a rare histological pattern, and includes two or more different types of tumors coexisting in the same organ as one neoplasm. Different to the combined type, the two adjacent tumors of collision carcinoma are histologically distinct. Collision carcinoma may occur from any origin or organ, including the cecum, liver, cervix, thyroid, stomach, kidney, and esophagus. In the rectum, adenocarcinoma is the most common pathological type, the combined type is rare, and collision tumors are even rarer. To date, only a limited number of collision carcinoma cases originating from the rectum have been reported. Due to the scarcity of rectal collision carcinoma, more cases need to be reported to fully understand the clinico-pathological features and biological behavior of the tumor.
CASE SUMMARY Here we report a 40-year-old female who presented with the chief complaints of persistent changes in bowel habits and hematochezia for 10 d. She underwent Miles' operation which revealed a collision carcinoma of the rectum, showing a “side by side” pattern, composed of a high grade neuroendocrine carcinoma, (small cell carcinoma) and moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma, based on its clinico-pathological features and biological behavior. The patient remained disease-free at 12 mo follow-up. We also focused on the related literature and expert opinion.
CONCLUSION Collision carcinoma is a rare tumor with ambiguous biological behavior. Greater attention should be paid to its clinico-pathologic diagnosis. Regular and adequate follow-up is essential to help rule out metastasis and assess the prognosis.
