Objective Description

Summary: Objective: Description of the case of recurrence of a  rare malignant Brenner ovarian tumour. Methods: Author observation and literature resources. Results: Occurrence of a rare malignant Brenner's tumor in a 66-year-old patient. After radical surgery (abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral adnexectomy, pelvic and paraaortic lymphadenectomy, omentectomy and appendectomy) and after adjuvant chemotherapy, recurrence of the disease was observed after 30 months. Conclusions: The case report describes rare occurrence of a malignant Brenner tumour and its relapse.

A 71-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital because of sudden onset of weakness on the left side of her body. Her medical history was unremarkable, and on physical examination, hemiparesis and hyperreflexia on the left side were found. MRI of the brain showed multiple areas of restricted diffusion in both parietal lobes and in the cerebellum, consistent with embolic shower. Magnetic resonance angiography showed no abnormal findings. A contrast-enhanced CT scan revealed multiple pulmonary emboli. Abdominal MRI showed a 135 mm left ovarian tumour composed of a solid and a cystic component with liquid level formation. After a total hysterectomy and bilateral adnexectomy, the histopathology confirmed a seromucinous borderline tumour. Therefore, the patient was diagnosed with Trousseau’s syndrome associated with an ovarian seromucinous borderline tumour. To our knowledge, this is the first report mentioning a borderline ovarian tumour detected as Trousseau’s syndrome.

Introduction: Parathyroid cancer is a rare endocrine malignancy. These tumors are typically functional, causing severe hypercalcemia due to primary hyperparathyroidism. Nonfunctional parathyroid cancer with normal serum calcium and parathyroid hormone levels is extremely rare. The disease is usually indolent but progressive with a tendency to metastasize. It is very difficult to diagnose this malignancy. The definitive diagnosis is made by histopathological examination. Radical surgery with ipsilateral lobectomy and en bloc neck dissection is considered to be the most appropriate therapeutic approach. There is no evidence of efficiency of adjuvant cancer therapy and its indication has not been defined. Disease recurrence is common. Case report: We report the case of a 26-year-old female patient who underwent left hemithyroidectomy for growth progression of a hypoechoic lesion behind the left thyroid lobe detected by ultrasonography. Preoperative cytology and imaging assessments were not suspicious for malignancy. Serum parathyroid hormone and calcium levels were normal. The diagnosis of nonfunctional parathyroid carcinoma was determined based on histopathological examination. No further surgery or adjuvant therapy was indicated. No signs of recurrence or generalization have been observed at 36 months after the surgery. Conclusion: Nonfunctional parathyroid cancer is extremely rare. In many cases, the diagnosis is made in advanced stages of the disease. No formal classification or treatment protocol has been established so far. A new staging system has been proposed in the 8th edition of AJCC/UICC. Early detection, radical surgery and close follow-up are crucial aspects to affect the mortality and morbidity of patients with this type of malignancy.

Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumour involving rectum and anal canal is an extremely rare entity. This is a case report of a 47 years lady presented with fresh rectal bleed associated with rectal pain and foul smelling rectal mucus discharge. On rectal examination, she had a firm mass palpable about 1.5 cm from anal verge. Considering the size of the tumour and its close proximity with cervix and involvement of levator muscles, extralevator abdominal perineal excision of rectum was undertaken with good recovery after surgery. It was followed by imatinib therapy.
