A unique triad of a carcinosarcoma and an adenocarcinoma of the prostate as well as an adenocarcinoma of the seminal vesicles in a 67-year-old man is reported. The carcinosarcoma was investigated by immunohistochemical methods. The mesenchymal parts of the sarcoma showed chondromatous
A very rare case of carcinosarcoma of the prostate is reported. The patient was a 77-year-old man in whom both primary and metastatic tumors presented the pathology of carcinosarcoma of the prostate. The carcinosarcoma was resistant to anti-androgen therapy, and the patient showed low level of serum
The enzyme activities of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) and acid phosphatase (AP) in the rat sarcoma 45 (S. 45) cells and Walker carcinosarcoma (WCS) cells were estimated from the histochemical study. No significant changes were found in the histochemical reaction
The present report describes a rare prostatic tumor occurring in a 78-year-old Japanese male. The histological features were those of carcinosarcoma involving an adenocarcinoma and a chondrosarcoma, with metastasis to the liver. The carcinomatous component stained positively for prostatic acid
True carcinosarcoma of the prostate is a rare neoplasm, with only 9 cases well documented by immunocytochemistry and ultrastructural examination. We report a case of an unresectable pelvic tumor studied at autopsy. The primary prostatic neoplasm and pulmonary metastases were composed of well
A murine monoclonal antibody PASE/4LJ to prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP) was used to immunostain a wide variety of sections of benign and malignant tissues (654 blocks). Non-neoplastic adult and fetal prostatic glands, primary and metastatic prostatic carcinomas, and scattered cells in prostatic
Primary hepatic carcinosarcoma is a rare subtype of liver malignancy, with only a small number of cases described in the English literature.We report the case of a 72-year-old man with a history of hepatitis C, who presented with complaints of abdominal Poorly differentiated Sertoli-stromal cell tumors and carcinosarcomas of the ovary both show biphasic epithelial and stromal patterns and may both show heterologous stromal elements, presenting a difficult diagnosis. We studied the immunohistochemical profile of Sertoli cell differentiation in human
Parathyroid hormone related peptide (PTHrP) and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D are known to be resorptive agents which could contribute to the development of hypercalcemia in humoral hypercalcemia of malignancy (HHM) syndrome in Walker 256 tumor bearing rats. In order to clarify some aspects about the
The phosphatase inhibitor okadaic acid exerted a biphasic effect on the shape of spontaneously polarized Walker carcinosarcoma cells. At lower concentrations, the drug suppressed cell polarity (IC50 = 0.14 microM) and the cells reverted to a spherical shape. At higher concentrations (> 0.25 microM),
Critically important to reducing uterine cancer mortality is the development of more effective therapy for aggressive endometrial cancers, including uterine serous cancer and uterine carcinosarcoma, which together account for over half of deaths due to endometrial cancer. About one-third of these
Immunoperoxidase staining of tissue for prostatic acid phosphatase has been useful in confirming the prostatic origin of metastatic deposits. This technique was used on the prostate tumors of 2 patients to differentiate between a true carcinosarcoma and a pure epithelial carcinoma with sarcomatoid
Uterine carcinosarcomas (UCSs) are a rare but clinically aggressive form of cancer. They are biphasic tumors consisting of both epithelial and sarcomatous components. The majority of uterine carcinosarcomas are clonal, with the carcinomatous cells undergoing metaplasia to give rise to the
Carcinosarcomas (malignant mixed Müllerian tumors) of the uterus are rare and aggressive malignancies consisting of an epithelial (carcinoma) and a mesenchymal (sarcoma) tumor component and are considered as metaplastic endometrial carcinomas. This study evaluated molecular characteristics and
Expression of intermediate filaments (IFs) has been suggested to be a reliable marker for differentiating epithelial and non-epithelial tumors. Moreover, the c-erbB-2 and p53 genes are considered to be involved relatively early in the process of human carcinogenesis. In order to elucidate the origin
