Introdução: O carcinoma inflamatório mamário (CIM) é um tumor altamente agressivo que acomete cadelas principalmente na média de 10 anos de idade, é uma neoplasia progressiva e que possui alta taxa de mortalidade. Este trabalho tem por objetivo relatar um caso deferido com suspeita de carcinoma inflamatório mamário. Relato do Caso: Cadela, Sem Raça Definida (SRD), apresentando sinais característicos da patologia supracitada: glândulas mamárias difusamente edemaciadas, doloridas, quente e com pouca demarcação entre os tecidos, região espessa e secreção sero- sanguinolenta. O resultado do exame histopatológico confirmou o diagnóstico, e por infelicidade a doença já se encontrava em estágio avançado. Conclusão: O prognótico era desfavorável, sendo assim, a tutora optou pela eutanásia. Introduction: Inflammatory breast carcinoma is a highly aggressive tumor that attacks female dogs on average ten years of age, is a progressive neoplasm and has a high mortality rate. This work aims to report a suspected case of inflammatory breast carcinoma. Case Report: Female dog, no race defined, showing characteristic signs of the pathology: mammary glands diffusely were swollen, painful, warm and with little demarcation between the tissues, thickened region, and serosanguineous secretion. The result of the histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis, and unfortunately, the disease was already found in the advanced stage. Conclusion: The prognosis was unfavorable, so the tutor chose euthanasia.

Mammary hamartoma is uncommon typically non-malignant benign breast lesion, comprising varying amounts of fatty, fibrous connective tissue and glandular elements. The co-existence of hamartomas and malignancy is very rare and it has no special propensity to undergo malignant transformation. We present a case report of a 66-year-old patient diagnosed with Inflammatory Breast Carcinoma within a previously diagnosed mammary hamartoma in the right breast. The comprehensive work-up with mammography, ultrasound, Positron Emission Tomography – Computed Tomography (PET-CT) and ultrasound-guided biopsy confirmed invasive ductal carcinoma within the hamartoma. Although malignancy arising within hamartoma is an extremely rare entity, the radiologist should be aware and prudent of the atypical as well as suspicious features within hamartoma during interpretation of imaging modalities and should thoroughly investigate any architectural distortion or microcalcifications within an otherwise typical hamartoma. No case has been reported for inflammatory breast carcinoma in mammary hamartoma as per our best of knowledge.

PURPOSE: Inflammatory breast carcinoma (IBC) is a rare clinicopathological cancer type with unique clinical features and a poor prognosis. In this disease, there is generally no palpable mass in the breast. IBC can be mistakenly diagnosed as mastitis and patients may receive a delayed diagnosis and treatment, since these two disorders cause similar pathological appearences on the breast. Clinical suspicion of the disease followed by histopathological observation of occluded dermal lympthatics by tumor emboli leads to definitive diagnosis of IBC. METHODS: Here, we report our experiences in diagnosing IBC using Thick-Needle Aspiration Biopsy (TNAB). RESULTS: Eight patients having clinically suspected IBC, received TNAB. IBC was definitively diagnosed upon observation in histopathological examination of occluded dermal lymphatics by tumor emboli since TNAB allowed adequate tissue sampling. CONCLUSION: In this study, we showed that IBC can be reliably diagnosed using TNAB.

This case report of multiple mammary tumours in a Spitz bitch revealed the presence of three tumour masses, T-1, T-2 and T-3, of variable size, shape and texture on different mammary glands. Histopathological examination revealed these tumours to be of different histological type (T-1 – fibrosarcoma, T-2 – malignant mixed mammary tumour and T-3 – papillary adenocarcinoma). The mitotic index and AgNOR count was high in all three tumours indicative of a higher proliferation status of neoplastic cells while T-2 and T-3 showed overexpression of the c-erbB2 oncoprotein.

Introduction: Chondroblastoma is a rare benign cartilaginous neoplasm arising in the epiphysis of long bones in young patients. It is an uncommon benign but locally aggressive tumor, mostly located in the secondary centers of ossification. These tumors arise near a joint or growth plate and surgical excision is always challenging. Case Report: A 13-year-old boy presented with intermittent knee pain, swelling, and limitation of movements for 1 year. On examination, magnetic resonance imaging revealed a hyperintense lesion in distal femoral epiphysis with superior transphyseal extension and inferior thinning of cortex with cartilage breach. Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of chondroblastoma of distal femur. We report a novel technique of approach in a case of distal femoral chondroblastoma in a skeletally immature individual. Conclusion: The technique we incorporated had an adequate exposure to reach the lesion for a complete curettage and bone grafting. It also reduced further injury to cartilage and physeal plate. Keywords: Chondroblastoma, cartilage breach, curettage, bone grafting.

Introduction. Secretory breast carcinoma is rare subtype of breast carcinoma which occurs primarily in children and young adults, so in the past it was called juvenile carcinoma. Case report. A 67-year-old female patient presented with mass of the right breast since one month. After physical, routine laboratory examination and mammography, core needle biopsy was performed and histopathological examination confirmed invasive carcinoma. Immunohistochemically, estrogen-receptors (ER) and progesteron-receptors (PR) showed weak positive reaction in 10% of tumor cells, while human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2) was without expression. After an adequate preoperative preparation, operation was done ? quadrantectomy with sentinel lymph node biopsy. Postoperatively, the patient was treated with 6 cycles of cyclophosphamide, methotrexate and fluorouracil (CMF) combination, radiotherapy (60 Gy) and tamoxifen. After 5-year follow-up the patient had no signs of the disease. Conclusion. Secretory breast cancer is a rare subtype of invasive breast carcinoma with wide age range of occurrence and good prognosis despite its triplenegative immunophenotype. Although the therapeutic management is non-consensual for this breast cancer special type, surgery is considered the mainstay of the treatment as well as the adjuvant chemotherapy and radiation.
