Abstract:

A 36-year-old woman, unresponsive to pneumonia antibiotherapy followed by antituberculosis treatment, was referred to our clinic. Thorax computed tomography (CT) and positron emission tomography CT showed cystic mass and mediastinal lymph node with suspicion of malignancy. Fine needle aspiration biopsy and mediastinoscopy showed no malignancy, so the patient underwent an exploratory thoracotomy. A frozen section of wedge-resected mass was reported as adenocarcinoma, leading to right lower lobectomy with mediastinal lymph node dissection. Besides cutting-edge diagnostic techniques, exploratory

Abstract:

An adrenal mass discovered incidentally during imaging for unrelated clinical reasons is termed an “adrenal incidentaloma” (AI). AIs can be categorized as primary or metastatic, functioning or non-functioning, and benign or malignant. The primary goal of radiological evaluation is to exclude malignancy by differentiating between benign and malignant lesions. Most AIs are benign, with adenomas and macronodular bilateral adrenal hyperplasia being the most common types. Less common benign lesions include myelolipomas, pheochromocytomas, cysts, and hematomas. Malignant adrenal masses account for l

Abstract:

<strong>Background:</strong> Adnexal mass pathologies are mostly benign. Given the extremely low five-year survival rate of adnexal malignant tumors, early detection is imperative. There isn’t a single, gold-standard investigation that can be used to diagnose adnexal cancer. The menopausal status (M), ultrasound scores (U), and serum CA 125 (U/ML) is combined to create the Risk of Malignancy Index (RMI) scoring system. The purpose of this research is to evaluate how well the Risk of Malignancy Index-3 (RMI-3) scoring system distinguishes between benign and malignant adnexal masses i

The incidence of breast cancer ranks first among female malignant tumor. With the increase of the sensitivity of color Doppler ultrasound blood flow, the blood flow distribution in and around the tumor can be clearly displayed, and the analysis of hemodynamic parameters is provided, which provides convenience for the study of tumor blood flow characteristics. Studies have shown that tumor cells can secrete a substance called angiogenesis factor, which makes the tumor site form a rich vascular network to promote tumor growth and metastasis.

Abstract:

During routine antenatal ultrasound examinations, an ovarian mass can be found incidentally. In clinical practice, the differential diagnosis between benign and malignant ovarian masses is essential for planning further management. Ultrasound imaging has become the most popular diagnostic tool during pregnancy, with the recent development of ultrasonography. In non-pregnant women, several methods have been used to predict malignant ovarian masses before surgery.

Abstract:

Marking of non-palpable breast lesions for biopsy has become a routine procedure in patients in whom mammography has suggested malignancy. Between October 1981 and December 1985 a localization method was used in 123 patients. In 35 per cent of the biopsies a malignant lesion was disclosed. In patients with a mass only, malignancy was found in 37 per cent of the biopsies. If microcalcifications alone were the main reason for the biopsy, malignancy was disclosed in 25 per cent. If both a mass and microcalcifications were present, 52 per cent of the biopsies disclosed a malignant lesion.

Prediction models play an important role in adnexal mass assessment since they allow clinicians to reliably differentiate adnexal mass as malignant or benign. The models use clinical and ultrasound features to generate a numerical score or probability of malignancy. The use of prediction models in adnexal mass assessment can have several benefits. For example, they can help clinicians identify patients at higher risk for malignancy and thus candidates for surgical treatment. They can also help to guide decision-making regarding the need for additional imaging and the extent of surgical procedu

Errors that occur in anatomic pathology influence the treatment strategy of patients with malignancy. There are four general types of error with three subtypes in the category of defective interpretation. The first subtype is a false-negative diagnosis or undercall of the extent or severity of the lesion, the second is a false-positive diagnosis, and the third is misclassification. We herein report a 65-year-old female patient with malignant gastrointestinal stromal tumor that was diagnosed after reevaluation of the lesion at our hospital – and treated with proximal gastrectomy – after initial

Abstract:

Mammography is currently the most effective imaging modality for early detection of breast cancer. In a CAD system for masses based on mammography, a mammogram is segmented to detect the masses. The segmentation gives rise to mass regions of interested (ROIs), which are either benign or malignant. There is a need to classify the extracted mass ROIs into benign and malignant masses; it is a hard problem because the texture micro-structures of benign and malignant masses have close resemblance. In this paper, a method for classifying mass ROIs into benign and malignant masses is presented. The k

Abstract:

Background: The discrimination between benign and malignant adnexal masses is important for clinical management and surgical planning in such patients. Various combined methods of evaluation adnexal mass have also been proposed. Risk of malignancy index (RMI) is a combined parameter which is simple, preclinical and highly sensitive, and more specific. Risk of malignancy index 4 (RMI 4) is calculated as a product of ultrasound score (U)×menopausal score (M)×CA 125×tumor size. Objective of this study was to determine if the RMI (RMI 4) can distinguish between benign and malignant adnexal masses.

Abstract:

We had experience with a case of mesenchymal hamartoma of the chest wall (MHCW) with fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake on positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT). We reported the first case of asymptomatic MHCW in a child with preoperative PET/CT. Mesenchymal hamartoma of the chest wall is a rare benign tumor that usually presents as a visible chest wall mass or respiratory problems secondary to compression of the lung in early infancy. It is often reported that malignant transformation is extraordinarily rare. Positron emission tomography/CT is useful for diagnosis of malignan

Abstract:

Mature cystic teratoma is a common benign adnexal tumour in females. It is composed of all the three germ layers (mesoderm, endoderm and ectoderm). Malignant transformation in a mature cystic teratoma of the ovary is rare, occurring in only 1-2% of cases. The most common malignancy is squamous cell carcinoma, which consists of about 80% of malignant transformations. Here we report malignant transformation of MCT in a 74year old post-menopausal female. Grossly the ovary was large cystic occupying the entire abdomen. Trial dissection was done and only 50% of the mass could be dissected due to gr

Lateral aberrant ectopic thyroid is very rare, comprising only 1%–3% of all the ectopic thyroid tissue. Clinically, these lesions are mistaken for lymph node swelling or metastatic tumour. Primary carcinoma in lateral aberrant ectopic thyroid with normal active native thyroid is very uncommon. We report a case of papillary carcinoma in lateral aberrant ectopic thyroid tissue, with a completely normal native thyroid gland in a 53-year-old man, who presented with a massive swelling in the lateral aspect of the neck clinically and radiologically diagnosed as a malignant soft tissue tumour with di

A parotid mass in a pediatric patient is stated to have an approximately 50% likelihood of being malignant.1,2 To evaluate our experience in light of this suggested incidence, we conducted a retrospective study, which included 22 patients treated over an 8-year period, 1979 to 1987. Patients' ages ranged from 16 months to 19 years, and all patients presented with an unknown, solid parotid mass. One patient had a malignancy, mucoepidermoid carcinoma. Eight patients were diagnosed with benign pleomorphic adenoma. Thirteen patients had an inflammatory process consisting of one of the following co

Abstract:

Chronic pancreatitis (CP) is a known risk factor for pancreatic cancer. CP may present with an inflammatory mass, and differentiation from pancreatic cancer is often difficult. Clinical suspicion of malignancy dictates a need for further evaluation for underlying pancreatic cancer. Imaging modalities remain the mainstay of evaluation for a mass in background CP; however, they have their shortcomings. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) has become the go-to investigation. Adjunct modalities such as contrast-harmonic EUS and EUS elastography, as well as EUS-guided sampling using newer-generation needles
