The prognosis of phyllodes tumor is good with an overall 87% 10-year survival rate. [5] After wide-margin surgical excision, 98.7% of benign phyllodes tumors and 80% of borderline were cured. [25] In rare cases where the tumor has metastasized, the prognosis is poor. [5] This most commonly occurs in cases of malignant grade phyllodes tumor. [5]
A Krukenberg tumor refers to a malignancy in the ovary that metastasized from a primary site, classically the gastrointestinal tract, although it can arise in other tissues such as the breast. [1] Gastric adenocarcinoma, especially at the pylorus , is the most common source. [ 2 ]
The calcifying epithelial odontogenic tumor (CEOT), also known as a Pindborg tumor, is an odontogenic tumor first recognized by the Danish pathologist Jens Jørgen Pindborg in 1955. [1] It was previously described as an adenoid adamantoblastoma , unusual ameloblastoma and a cystic odontoma . [ 1 ]
Carcinosarcoma of the uterus. In gross appearance, MMMTs are fleshier than adenocarcinomas, may be bulky and polypoid, and sometimes protrude through the cervical os.On histology, the tumors consist of adenocarcinoma (endometrioid, serous or clear cell) mixed with the malignant mesenchymal elements; alternatively, the tumor may contain two distinct and separate epithelial and mesenchymal ...
The tumor may secrete human placental lactogen, [2] and result in a false-positive pregnancy test. [3] A placental site trophoblastic tumor is a monophasic neoplasm of the implantation site intermediate trophoblast, and usually a benign lesion, which comprises less than 2% of all gestational trophoblastic proliferations. Preceding conditions ...
Smooth muscle tumor of uncertain malignant potential, abbreviated STUMP, is an uncommon tumor of the uterine smooth muscle that may behave like a benign tumor or a cancerous tumor. This tumor should not be confused with the prostatic stromal tumor of uncertain malignant potential which may be abbreviated the same way ( STUMP ).
That group includes five Hall of Famers (Ralph Kiner, Eddie Mathews, Frank Robinson, Ted Williams, Joe DiMaggio), a future first-ballot Hall of Famer (Albert Pujols) and three other terrific 21st ...
Borderline ovarian tumor [ edit ] Borderline ovarian tumours differ from epithelial ovarian cancer by their low incidence, frequent association with infertility, low association with mutations in BCRA genes, different percentages of the most common histological types, early stage diagnosis, and high survival rate, even when associated with ...
