Cellular schwannoma of the retroperitoneum with cystic degeneration, mimicking an ovarian cyst, with CKAE1/AE3 and desmin expression.
2014
Schwannoma is an encapsulated benign tumour usually presenting as a solitary mass on the flexor surfaces of the extremities, neck, mediastinum, posterior spinal roots and cerebellopontine angle, an...

Vena cava resection and bypass for recurrent cervical cancer
2021
A 42-year-old woman was diagnosed with a second para-aortic cervical cancer. The patient had undergone a radical hysterectomy with pelvic lymphadenectomy for FIGO stage IB1 squamous cervical cancer 3 years prior to current presentation. No adjuvant treatment was performed after the primary surgery
The Value of Sonography and Lymphography in the Detection of Retroperitoneal Metastases in Testicular Tumors
1979
Lymphography has led to falsely negative or falsely positive diagnoses in 10 to 45 per cent of the cases of testicular tumor metastases reported in the literature. In our comparative study of lymphography and sonography in the preoperative staging of 29 malignant testicular tumors lymphography was accurate in 58.5 per cent of the cases, while sonography had an accuracy rate of 82.5 per cent. Sonography was superior to lymphography in the evaluation of hilar lymph node metastases and their extent, as well as for routine checkups after lymphadenectomy or irradiation.
Atypical Pleomorphic Extraosseous Ewing Tumor/Peripheral Primitive Neuroectodermal Tumor with Unusual Phenotypic/Genotypic Profile
2002
A pleomorphic undifferentiated tumor primarily located in the retroperitoneum with a phenotype compatible with an extraosseous Ewing tumor/peripheral primitive neuroectodermal tumor (ET/pPNET) pattern and unusual molecular features is described. Immunohistochemically, HBA-71 (CD99/mic2) and several neural markers were intensively expressed together with scattered cells expressing carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA). Short-term culture showed biphasic neuroblastic and epithelioid cell populations, with the latter expressing germ cell markers (CEA, alpha-fetoprotein, and the beta-subunit of chorionic gonadotrophin). Conventional cytogenetics displayed several chromosomic rearrangements, especially…
Patient-derived solitary fibrous tumour xenografts predict high sensitivity to doxorubicin/dacarbazine combination confirmed in the clinic and highli…

Abstract Background Preclinical models that mimic pathological and molecular features of solitary fibrous tumour (SFT) represent an important tool to select effective regimes and novel compounds to be tested in the clinic. This study was aimed at developing two preclinical models of SFT, assessing their predictive value in the clinic and selecting potential novel effective treatments. Material and methods Two dedifferentiated-SFT (D-SFT) models obtained from patients' biopsies were grown in immunodeficient mice. The antitumour activity on these models of doxorubicin, dacarbazine (DTIC), ifosfamide (monotherapy or combination), trabectedin and eribulin was tested. Twelve SFT patients were tr…
Cirugía de tumores retroperitoneales con afectación de vena cava: revisión de 18 casos
2018
Resumen Introducción El tumor retroperitoneal con extensión a la vena cava inferior (VCI) más frecuente es el carcinoma de células renales. Tiene una supervivencia a 5 años de hasta un 32% cuando se realiza nefrectomía radical y trombectomía. El tratamiento quirúrgico es complejo y puede necesitar el soporte de circulación extracorpórea y parada circulatoria e hipotermia. Métodos Estudio descriptivo, retrospectivo, mediante análisis de datos de pacientes intervenidos de tumores con invasión de la VCI entre 1992 y 2015. Se recogieron datos demográficos, tumorales, de técnica quirúrgica, intraoperatorios, posquirúrgicos y de mortalidad. Las variables cuantitativas se presentan como media±desv…
