[Neuroendocrine tumor associated with an intestinal cyst: a case report]. / Tumor neuroendocrino asociado con quiste intestinal: presentación de un caso.

Intestinal (tailgut) cysts or retrorectal cystic hamartomas are rare benign lesions that are included in the category of developmental cystic lesions. Their origin is still uncertain, although several hypotheses have been proposed to explain their development. They are located mainly in the presacral (retrorectal) space and predominately affect middle-aged women (40-60 years). Taking into account location and histological characteristics, the main differential diagnoses include epidermoid cysts, duplication cysts and teratomas. Malignant transformation of these lesions is rare and preferentially into adenocarcinoma and neuroendocrine tumors. We present a case of an intestinal cyst associated with a well-differentiated neuroendocrine tumor (G1) in a 63-year-old woman.

[Hereditary leiomyomatosis syndrome associated with renal cell carcinoma. A case report]. / Síndrome de leiomiomatosis hereditaria asociado a carcinoma de células renales. Presentación de un caso.

Hereditary leiomyomatosis (HL) is a rare autosomal dominant syndrome resulting from a mutation in the germline of the fumarate hydratase (FH) gene. Patients with this syndrome have an increased risk of cutaneous and uterine smooth muscle tumors as well as renal cancer. Renal carcinoma associated with hereditary leiomyomatosis (HLRCC) was recognized as a subtype of independent renal tumor in the 2016 WHO classification. We present a case of HLRCC occurring in a 39-year-old man with no family history or specific skin manifestations at the time of diagnosis.
