Diffuse sclerosing variant of PTC (DSV-PTC) is an uncommon subtype thyroid cancer. Although aggressive behavior often recognized, prognostic significance still under debate.To describe the clinicopathological features and outcomes a series DSV-PTC patients.Retrospective data collection involving 33 patients diagnosed with followed at Endocrine Department Portuguese Institute Oncology in Lisbon between 1981 2020.Twenty-six (78.8%) were females mean age presentation 29.4 ± 11.7 years old. Mean...
Haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a therapeutic option for numerous haematologic diseases and solid tumours. Increasing indications HSCT reduction in associated mortality have been raising the number of paediatric survivors their long-term toxicities.To characterize endocrine disorders developed after HSCT.Retrospective analysis 152 patients submitted to age with at least 24 months follow-up our late-effects clinics.Patients were followed up 9.9 (interquartile range [IQR]:...
Cancer survivors are at an increased risk of adverse outcomes, including thyroid neoplasms, given the high radiosensitivity this gland. The aim study is to assess incidence and timeframe complications in cancer patients, followed systematically since their radiation therapy, identify factors for development hypothyroidism cancer.We performed a retrospective study, 282 subjects, who received neck, craniospinal, or total body irradiation (TBI). Patients were grouped into four primary...
Diffuse thyroid lipomatosis is a rare histopathological condition of unknown etiology, characterized by diffuse fatty infiltration the stroma, which can result in goiter with compressive symptoms. We report case 46-year-old man 1-year history progressive enlargement Imaging studies revealed multiple coalescent nodules. The patient underwent surgery, and microscopic appearance stroma mature adipose tissue associated amyloid deposition. A final diagnosis gland was established. This represents...
Abstract Background Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a common genetic disorder of phenotypic variability with age-dependent penetrance. This study describes the diagnosis, clinical characterization, management, and outcomes large patient cohort plexiform neurofibroma (PN) treated selumetinib in real-world setting. Methods single-center observational consecutively enrolled patients NF1-PN from April 2018 to 2023. Data on features, tumor types locations, results tests were recorded at...
ABSTRACT X-linked hypophosphataemic rickets (XLH) is a rare disease caused by mutation in the phosphate-regulating neutral endopeptidase (PHEX) gene, located on X chromosome. This gene encodes endopeptidase, and its inactivation leads to increased levels of circulating phosphatonins responsible for renal phosphate loss. The treatment XLH still carried out with long-term administration calcitriol, which can be complicated hyperparathyroidism, nephrocalcinosis, failure, hypertension. We...
Lung is the most common site of distant metastases from differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC).To investigate outcomes a cohort patients with DTC and lung (LM).A retrospective analysis 271 LM was performed.The female-to-male ratio 1:1 median follow-up time 5.9 (1.1-38.4) years. Papillary (PTC) frequent type (83.4%), mainly classic variant, followed by follicular (FTC, 10.3%) Hürthle cell (HTC, 6.3%). The prevalence PTC, FTC HCC different between micronodular macronodular groups [87.4%, 6.3%...
Abstract The “flip‐flop” phenomenon may be present in differentiated progressive thyroid cancer. A high suspicion index must maintained when this coexists with a tumor burden, due to the risk of appearance distinct tumors.
There is a great controversy about hormonal replacement therapy in women among the members of scientific community. Cancer survivors have sometimes had their ovary function totally or partially destroyed, thus affecting development and quality life. In this study, we were looking for adverse effects caused, eventually, by estroprogestative cohort supplemented survivors. The occurrence breast cancer was our main concern. Ours retrospective study based on clinical records 174 several diseases....
Advanced papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) with cutaneous metastases may cause pain, ulceration, and bleeding. Electrochemotherapy (ECT) is a minimally invasive treatment of tumors located in the skin subcutaneous tissue. The electric pulses potentiate toxicity cytostatic agents entering tumor cell. It highly effective especially to relieve pain improve quality life. adverse events are local transient. A case progressive metastatic PTC who developed bleeding treated ECT described.

Abstract Purpose: The use of FDG-PET/TC for cancer staging has been leading to the increasing diagnosis adrenal lesions, which usually represent a clinical challenge. Our aim was characterize lesions found in FDG-PET patients followed center. Methods: Retrospective analysis all studies performed our center last 10 years. Exams reporting CT component and/or anomalous FDG uptake were selected. Cases characterized regarding clinical, laboratorial, imaging and pathological findings. Results: We...
