Abstract
Syringocystadenoma papilliferum is a rare cutaneous adnexal tumor that usually arises in the head and neck region. It may develop de novo or within a nevus sebaceus. Linear syringocystadenoma papilliferum is an uncommon variant of this benign tumor. We report a child with linear retroauricular distribution of syringocystadenoma papilliferum. A background nevus sebaceus was shown histologically. Total excision was curative with no recurrence. An association between the linear variant of syringocystadenoma papilliferum and nevus sebaceus has not been reported previously.

Abstract
AIM Solid pseudopapillary tumor (SPT) of the pancreas is a rare neoplasm, its preoperative diagnosis is difficult and therefore inappropriate therapy or postoperative complications are frequent. Reviewing the literature, the purpose of this article was to identify guidelines to improve diagnosis and treatment of SPT. CASE REPORT Authors report a case of SPT of the pancreas in a 27-year-old woman in whom a mistaken radiologic diagnosis made surgical strategy difficult and caused postoperative complications. DISCUSSION/CONCLUSIONS Clinicians and surgeons should: (1) consider the possible disease of SPT in young females, with pancreatic encapsulated lesion with well-defined borders and variable central areas of cystic degeneration, necrosis or hemorrhage showed on radiological examinations. (2) Intensity of the differentiation of the clinical symptoms, especially during the course of therapy of chronic gastritis and diabetes. (3) Use immunohistochemical stains of alpha-1-antitrypsin, alpha-1-antichymotrypsin, vimentin and neuron-specific enolase. (4) Keep this unusual but potentially curable tumor in mind, following patients who had suffered from acute pancreatitis or abdominal injury. Increasing experience with this tumor leads to a greater awareness of its clinical presentation and pathological features and a lower rate of misdiagnosis. (5) Finally, perform, where technically feasible, conservative surgical treatment, that is safe and effective.

Hyperandrogenism, mediated by obesity and receptor polymorphisms, promotes aggressive epithelial ovarian cancer biology. Gynecol Oncol 2007; 107:420-3. [PMID: 17825390 DOI: 10.1016/j.ygyno.2007.07.059] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/11/2007] [Revised: 07/17/2007] [Accepted: 07/18/2007] [Indexed: 10/22/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Epidemiologic data suggest that aberrant androgen homeostasis may promote aggressive epithelial ovarian cancer biology. Hyperandrogenism results from both obesity and expression of polymorphic androgen receptor (AR) allelotypes harboring short cytosine-adenine-guanine (CAG) repeat sequences; both have been shown to independently correlate with poor overall survival in ovarian cancer. We have hypothesized that the combination of these factors further manifests an aggressive ovarian cancer phenotype. METHODS Genotype analysis of the AR CAG polymorphism was performed on 81 patients with papillary serous epithelial ovarian cancer. Medical records were reviewed for body mass index (BMI), clinico-pathologic factors, and survival. Data were examined using the Fishers exact test, Kaplan-Meier survival, and Cox regression analyses. RESULTS Overweight or obese women (BMI > or = 25) with a short AR allele (< or = 19 CAG repeats) demonstrated statistically shorter progression-free survival (9 months) when compared to underweight or ideal body weight women (BMI < 25) and a long AR allele (> 19 CAG repeats; 26 months, p=0.0002). Overweight/obese women with a short AR allele also demonstrated shorter overall survival (34 months) when compared to underweight/ideal body weight women with a long AR allele (59 months, p=0.036). On multivariate analyses, the combination of a short AR allele and BMI > 25 was an independent poor prognostic factor after controlling for age, stage, grade, optimal cytoreduction, and AR allele length and BMI independently (p=0.05). CONCLUSION These data provide further evidence that suggest that hyperandrogenism promotes an aggressive epithelial ovarian cancer phenotype.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Laparoscopic resection of benign tumors of the pancreas has been reported in adults, but only four cases of partial laparoscopic pancreatectomy in children have been described in the English-language literature. METHODS We describe the case of an 11-year-old girl with a solid pseudopapillary tumor who was treated with a laparoscopic, spleen-preserving, distal pancreatectomy. The specimen was extracted in an endoscopic bag retrieval system through a Pfannenstiel incision. Operative time was 120 minutes, and minimal blood loss occurred. The literature is reviewed. RESULTS The postoperative course was uneventful. Twenty-two months after the operation, clinical follow-up (including assessment of exocrine and endocrine pancreatic function) revealed nothing abnormal. The functional and aesthetic results were satisfactory. CONCLUSIONS The technique used for our case is simple and reproducible, was completed safely within a reasonable operative time, and yielded a good result.

Abstract
Multicentric reticulohistiocytosis (MRH) is a rare histocytic disease characterized by destructive arthritis in association with classic skin findings. Although MRH is not strictly a paraneoplastic disease, one quarter of cases are malignancy related. We report a case of MRH with an initial remission followed by an acute exacerbation several years later heralding the clinical presentation of endometrial carcinoma. During this flareup a skin biopsy specimen revealed a diffuse dermal infiltrate composed of histiocytes with ground-glass cytoplasm and multiple atypical mitoses. Approximately 40% of the cells stained with the proliferation marker Ki-67. Treatment of endometrial carcinoma resulted in improvement of skin and joint symptoms, and a repeat biopsy specimen no longer demonstrated mitotic figures. These findings support a reactive and proliferative cause of MRH.

Abstract
CONTEXT Impairment of venous outflow manifests as zone 3 sinusoidal dilatation and congestion (SDC) in liver biopsy. However, the finding of SDC is not specific for venous outflow impairment.Objectives.-To determine the specificity of SDC in liver biopsies for venous outflow impairment and to seek an explanation for SDC in patients without clinical or radiologic features of venous outflow impairment. DESIGN Liver biopsies from 51 patients with sinusoidal dilatation were reviewed. Biopsies from transplant recipients, patients with cirrhosis, and patients with hepatic neoplasms (primary or metastatic) were not included. Clinical records were reviewed for laboratory tests and final clinicopathologic diagnosis. RESULTS Thirty-four patients (66.7%) had confirmed venous outflow impairment. Of the 17 cases (33.3%) without clinical and/or radiologic evidence of venous outflow impairment, vascular causes were present in 5 cases (9.8%; nodular regenerative hyperplasia in 2 cases and portal vein thrombosis, congenital absence of the portal vein, and sickle cell anemia in 1 case each). Systemic inflammatory disorders were identified in 6 patients (11.8%). These included 2 cases of Castleman disease and 1 each of sarcoidosis, Crohn disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and Still disease. Three patients (5.9%) had tumors without direct involvement of the liver (1 case each of Hodgkin lymphoma, renal cell carcinoma, and pancreatic serous pseudopapillary tumor). In the remaining 3 patients, SDC was identified in wedge liver biopsies performed at the time of surgery, including gastric bypass surgery, cholecystectomy, and splenectomy. No other disease association was apparent in these cases. CONCLUSION Sinusoidal dilatation and congestion in liver biopsy is associated with venous outflow impairment in two thirds of the cases. In the absence of clinical and/or radiological evidence of venous outflow, diagnostic considerations include other vascular conditions, such as portal vein insufficiency and nodular regenerative hyperplasia. Sinusoidal dilatation and congestion can also occur in the setting of systemic inflammatory diseases, granulomatous disorders, and neoplasms, as well as in wedge biopsies obtained during abdominal surgery.

Abstract
Solid pseudopapillary tumor of the pancreas is a rare pathologic entity. Although the role of laparoscopy in surgery of the pancreas is still controversial, laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy has been reported with good results in adults. We report a laparoscopic spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy in a 9-year-old boy who presented with a low-grade malignant tumor. Needle biopsy was impossible. A laparoscopic spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy was performed. We used four trocars, and the operative time was 240 min. Conversion to open surgery was not necessary. The boy's postoperative recovery was uneventful, and he was discharged on the 6th day. CT-scan control at 6 months was normal. This case shows that even in advanced surgical cases, such as spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy, laparoscopic procedures can be done safely, within a reasonable operative time, in children.

Abstract
Papillary cystadenoma of the epididymis is a rare benign tumor, accounting for only 4 per cent of all epididymal tumors. Histologically, it can be confused with metastatic renal cell carcinoma. This extremely rare lesion may occur sporadically or as a manifestation of von Hippel-Lindau(VHL) disease. The present paper reported a case of papillary cystadenoma accompanied by testicular atrophy with no signs of VHL syndrome or infertility. To date, no similar case was reported in the literature. The tumor measured 5.0 cm x 4.0 cm x 4.0 cm and was located in the right epididymis. Histopathologic examination of a surgically removed specimen indicated a primary papillary cystadenoma. Histomorphologically, these tumors are characterized by cysts with colloid-like contents and papillary formations of light epithelium. Since metastatic renal cell carcinoma may be histologically similar to papillary cystadenoma, the importance of long-term urologic follow-up for possible presentation of renal cell carcinoma is discussed.

Abstract
Papillary cystic and solid tumor of the pancreas is a rare neoplasm with low malignancy potential generally found in young women. Although its presentation is typically one of vague abdominal complaints, its radiographic and histologic characteristics are distinct. Recognition of the clinical and pathological spectrum of papillary cystic and solid tumor of the pancreas is essential for diagnosing this uncommon condition and differentiating it from other pancreatic masses encountered in the young.

Abstract
Adenolymphoma is a benign monomorphic lesion composed of epithelial tissue. Usually it is found in parotid gland; however, its laryngeal occurrence was rarely described. Extraparotid Warthin's tumour as scanty lymphatic tissue. In cases when there is no lymphatic tissue in subepithelial layer it is called oncocytic cystadenoma. The authors describe the case of bifocal adenolymphoma in bilateral laryngocoele and indicate classification difficulties of oncocytic lesions in the larynx.

Abstract
CONCLUSION The rate of growth of a papillary-cystic tumor of the pancreas seemed to be enhanced by the concurrence of pregnancy. Progesterone receptors in the tumor were demonstrated by immunohistochemistry and by molecular biology methods. BACKGROUND Papillary cystic tumor of the pancreas is extremely rare, occurring predominantly young females. Owing to the low frequency of the tumor, there is scarce information about the conditions that promote tumor growth. METHODS In this report, we present the temporal association between very rapid growth of a papillary-cystic neoplasm and pregnancy. Clinicopathological, immunohistochemical, and molecular biology analyses were performed. RESULTS A 21-yr-old woman was admitted because of recurrent epigastric abdominal pain associated with episodes of nausea and vomiting, and a history of an abdominal tumor of about 50 mm near the head of the pancreas, detected by ultrasound. On admission the patient had a flat, nontender abdomen without palpable masses. Laboratory analysis including hematologic and hepatic tests were strictly normal; only CA 19-9 (42 U/mL, normal 37 U/mL) was above normal values. One week after admission, an abdominal computerized axial tomography (CAT) scan revealed an 81.6-mm cystic mass localized in the head of the pancreas, and 1 wk later, in a laparotomy, a papillary-cystic neoplasm of 120 mm, limited to the head of the pancreas, was found. Three months later, in a routine follow-up visit, an 18-wk pregnancy was clinically diagnosed and confirmed by ultrasound exploration. The pregnancy continued without complications, and a normal male infant (3.7 kg) was born at 39 wk of gestation, by vaginal delivery. Eighteen months after tumor resection, the patient was asymptomatic and her child was in good health. We propose that progesterone affects tumor growth.

Abstract
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a hypoxia inducible angiogenic and vascular permeability factor. Although VEGF expression in glioblastoma is induced by hypoxia, its expression in renal cell carcinoma and hemangioblastoma is thought to be related to mutation of the von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) gene. It is not certain whether other lesions in VHL syndrome are associated with an elevated VEGF level. We report a VHL syndrome patient with multiple hemangioblastomas and bilateral epididymal clear cell papillary cystadenomas. In situ hybridization revealed high levels of VEGF mRNA in the clear cells of the epididymal tumor and the stromal cells of the hemangioblastoma. This lends support to the notion that upregulation of VEGF is caused by loss of the wild-type VHL protein. We postulate that the elevated VEGF levels may account for the cyst formation and vascularized stroma present in these VHL-associated tumors.

Abstract
Solid and papillary tumors of the pancreas are very rare malignancies, more commonly occurring in young women. They usually present as asymptomatic, large abdominal masses, and different from the most common neoplasm of the pancreas, which is the adenocarcinoma, these tumors have a high percentage of curability when treated by complete surgical resection. (6) For this reason, when the diagnosis of Frantz's tumor is made or strongly suspected, every attempt should be made for complete surgical excision since curability is high and radiotherapy and, or chemotherapy are of no use for its treatment.

Abstract
In the period from January 1st 1988 to January 15th 1994 inclusive, we observed 36 patients with epididymal neoformations. In patients with a considerable oligospermia, we associated microsurgical extirpation of neoformations, with the "testis biopsy" operation, to assess eventual histologic alterations of the interstice and seminiferous tubulus. The authors show as the application of microsurgical techniques with the help of magnifying optical instruments, permits to remove these neoformations with respect to near by structures besides consenting the accurate reconstruction of structures operated and maintenance or recovery of functionality mostly in young people, where fertility recovery is obligatory.
