Introduction. Cutaneous paraneoplastic syndromes are a heterogeneous group of skin manifestations that occur in relation to many known malignancies. Paraneoplastic occurrence of SCLE has been noted but is not commonly reported. SCLE association with cholangiocarcinoma is rare. Case Presentation. A
A 61-year-old woman was referred to our hospital because of jaundice and general itching. Computed tomography (CT) scan demonstrated that the tumor was located in the caudate lobe of the liver with hilar invasion and involved the hepatic inferior vena cava (IVC) and the right renal artery and vein.
Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma is a malignant neoplasm arising from the biliary epithelium, which frequently invades adjacent organs or metastasizes to other visceral organs such as the lungs, bones, adrenals, and brain. However, distant skeletal muscle metastasis of cholangiocarcinoma has never
The authors evaluated the activity and toxicity of docetaxel given as a 1-hour infusion every 21 days in patients with unresectable cholangiocarcinoma. Seventeen patients with cytologically or histologically confirmed cholangiocarcinoma received intravenous docetaxel over 1 hour, repeated every 21
Background: The authors report the first case of a cholangiocarcinoma brain metastasis successfully treated with MRI-guided laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT).
Case description:
Cholangiocarcinoma is a devastating cancer with a poor prognosis. Patients are often diagnosed at the advanced stage, and curative surgery is impossible. Radiation therapy is used for cases of advanced cancer. A 50-year-old woman with stage IVb intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma was diagnosed with
A 10-year-old Tennessee Walking Horse gelding was admitted to the veterinary teaching hospital for evaluation of intermittent fever, lethargy, and anorexia. Initial laboratory analyses revealed anemia and hyperfibrinogenemia. Abdominocentesis and thoracentesis yielded fluid samples with high
BACKGROUND
Chemotherapy of cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), a devastating cancer with increasing worldwide incidence and mortality rates, is largely ineffective. The discovery and development of effective chemotherapeutics is urgently needed.
METHODS
The study aimed at evaluating anticancer activities,
BACKGROUND
In patients with advanced cholangiocarcinoma involving the inferior vena cava (IVC), an extended hepatobiliary resection with combined resection and reconstruction of the IVC is often prerequisite to obtain a clear resection margin.
METHODS
We present our approach to repair of
BACKGROUND
Reversible posterior leukoencephalopathy syndrome (RPLS) is a rare disorder characterized by altered mental status, seizure, hypertension, and symmetrical white matter edema (leukoencephalopathy) typically in the posterior cerebral hemispheres on brain imaging. It is often linked to
Background: Sweet's syndrome, also known as acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis, is a rare skin disorder that may be associated with cancer.
Case summary: A 58-year-old
Atractylodin and β-eudesmol are the major active ingredients of Atractylodes lancea (Thunb) DC. (AL). Both compounds exhibit various pharmacological activities, including anticancer activity against cholangiocarcinoma. Despite the widespread use of this plant in traditional medicine in China, Japan,
Clonorchis sinensis is a high-risk pathogenic helminth that strongly provokes inflammation, epithelial hyperplasia, periductal fibrosis, and even cholangiocarcinoma in chronically infected individuals. Chronic inflammation is associated with an increased risk of various cancers due to the disruption
Phlegmasia cerulea dolens is a rare form of massive proximal venous thrombosis of the lower extremities associated with a high degree of morbidity, presenting with sudden severe lower extremity pain with edema and cyanosis. Venous gangrene, venous congestion with massive fluid sequestration leading
High dosage regional chemotherapy, chemoembolization and other methods of regional treatment are commonly used to treat unresectable primary liver malignancies and liver metastases. In liver malignancies of childhood neoadjuvant chemotherapy is successfully combined with surgical treatment.
