Oat Cell Carcinoma

A case of oat-cell carcinoma arising in the pericardium of a 51-year-old woman is described. The patient had multiple nodes; the largest was 2 × 1 cm. Two years later the patient presented with a tumor on her lower gum; this measured 2 mm and had similar characteristics to the previous one. The immunohistochemical study showed strong positivity for neuron-specific enolase. From review of the literature, it may be concluded that this is the first report of oat-cell carcinoma occurring in the pericardium.

Large Tumour Size

Primary testicular carcinoid tumours (TCT) are very rare, and a large tumour size and the presence of carcinoid syndrome predict a malignant course. Histologically, it is difficult to differentiate between benign and malignant TCTs. We report a case of a primary pure TCT with an unusual presentation in a 23- year-old man, who had an asymptomatic, enlarged scrotum on the right side for 7 years. On gross examination, the tumour was 9.6 cm in diameter. The Ki-67 labelling index was 19.8%. High inguinal orchidectomy was performed, and 30 months after surgery the patient remains asymptomatic.
