The first had a history of two malignant melanomas, whereas the second presented with a novel malignant melanoma. CONCLUSION: Although a prospective epidemiologic study to determine the incidence of malignant melanoma in patients with HED is virtually impossible and the probable pathogenesis warrants ...
PregnancyUveal, especially choroidal melanoma is the most common ocular melanoma. There is no clear evidence that pregnancy impacts its development. Enucleation is generally indicated for advanced tumors. Five-year mortality rate is 53% in patients with large melanomas (gt;8 mm)....
Of the seven patients with melanoma, four had axillary lymph node dissections and three had inguinal lymph node dissections. The patient with adnexal carcinoma had metastatic carcinoma in 14 of 20 lymph nodes that had been dissected; one of them also had intraparenchymal nevus cells. The patient...
Angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) is a malignancy with very poor survival outcome, in urgent need of more specific therapeutic strategies. The drivers of malignancy in this disease are CD4+ follicular helper T cells (Tfh). The metabolism of these
. Currently, tumor thickness and the presence of ulceration are some of the known prognostic factors used as indicators of malignant melanoma. Therefore, the discovery of valuable markers to assess the malignant potential of melanoma more accurately may be necessary to develop appropria...
Macrophage infiltration correlates with tumor stage and angiogenesis in human malignant melanoma: Possible involvement of TNFα and IL-1α Expression of thymidine phosphorylase (TP) is often associated with tumor angiogenesis and/or prognosis in patients. Further, infiltration of macrophages i... H Tor...
Therefore, it is reasonable that mature blood vessels function as the vascular niche for stem cells. This suggests that a cancer microenvironment composed of abundant mature blood vessels, as in LLC tumors, may support the stemness of CSCs. By using methods to identify malignant CICs by means ...
