Solitary fibrous tumors are rare spindle cell neoplasms usually arising in the pleura. They have, however, also been reported at extrapleural locations. tumor (SFT) of kidney is rare. Despite its rarity, histological diagnosis solitary crucial to avoid misdiagnosis with other more aggressive kidney. We report a left that presented as malignant 51-year-old woman, and include clinical radiographic findings. The was well circumscribed composed cells collagenous stroma. Immunohistochemistry...

Small cell carcinoma of the prostate is a very rare and aggressive type prostatic cancer. Most cases are diagnosed at advanced stage due to early metastasis.

Abstract Aims To investigate the effects of cold‐induced stress on bladder tissue histomorphology and contractility in a rat model. Methods Eighteen male Sprague–Dawley rats were divided into three groups: Control group (Group 1), acute cold‐stress 2, kept at +4°C for 8 hr), chronic 3, 4 hr/day 21 days). At end protocols, histological examination general morphology determination mast cells was performed. Organ bath studies conducted basal tone where contractile responses to 120 mM potassium,...

The first-line management of metastatic prostate cancer is hormonal therapy. However, resistance to this treatment will emerge within an average 24 months. Our purpose was determine the course under treatment. A total 56 patients who were diagnosed with enrolled.

Serum PSA levels at time first diagnosis,...

Bilateral synchronous testicular cancer is a rare occurrence and usually associated with similar histological findings in each testicle. The standard therapy of bilateral testis generally considered to be orchiectomy. We present case germ cell tumor treated testis-sparing surgery. patient was disease free for 30 months after surgery without local recurrence or distant metastases. Testis-sparing provides better quality life may safe, feasible alternative the treatment carefully selected...
