RESUMO

Prenatal ultrasound at the 20th week of gestation revealed a 3-cm tumour in the sacrococcygeal area. Initially, a sacrococcygeal teratoma was suspected on the basis of fetal ultrasonography, which revealed normal heart anatomy and an increasing tumour mass. The diagnosis was then changed to fetus in fetu or teratoma. Prenatal magnetic resonance imaging at the 34th week of pregnancy confirmed the ultrasound diagnosis. No other anomalies were found. Elective caesarean section was performed at term. The care team included a paediatric surgeon, obstetricians, neonatologists, midwives, and an anesthesiologist. A female newborn was delivered in good condition. The tumour was resected in the operating room and mature teratoma was established by histopathological evaluation. Surprisingly, agenesis of the right forearm was revealed which had not been detected prenatally, despite many examinations (both in our hospital and earlier at a primary care obstetrician office).

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Cervical Cancer Screening Program has been operational in Poland for over four years. Colposcopy and guided biopsy methods constitute an essential part of population-based screening, enable stating right diagnosis and planning treatment procedures. AIM: The aim of the following study was to analyse the diagnostic acuity of cyto- and histopathological examination. RESULTS: We examined 510 patients with the following result of cytological smear: ASCUS--265 women (51.96%), LSIL--167 cases (35.75%), HSIL--78 women (15.29%). Complete agreement between cytological smear and guided biopsy histopathology was observed among 81.13% cases of ASCUS, in 88.02% of women with LSIL and in 76.92% cases with the diagnosis of HSIL. As with cytology-biopsy comparisons, discordant cases were significantly more frequent in the group with stated HSIL than among patients with the diagnosis of ASCUS or LSIL (p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: 1. High cyto-histopathological accordance (82%) has been obtained, what is comparable with the data in literature. 2. The highest cyto- histopathological compatibility was obtained in the group of patients with LSIL--over 88%, and the lowest in the group of patients with HSIL--less than 77%. 3. Failure to confirm the histopathological diagnosis of cytological HSIL requires further molecular and morphological evaluation.

RESUMO

Evidence suggests that breast cancer hormone receptor status varies by etiologic factors, but studies have been inconsistent. In a population-based case-control study in Poland that included 2,386 cases and 2,502 controls, we assessed ER-alpha and PR status of tumors based on clinical records according to etiologic exposure data collected via interview. For 842 cancers, we evaluated ER-alpha, ER-beta, PR and HER2 levels by semiquantitative microscopic scoring of immunostained tissue microarrays and a quantitative immunofluorescence method, automated quantitative analysis (AQUAtrade mark). We related marker levels in tumors to etiologic factors, using standard regression models and novel statistical methods, permitting adjustment for both correlated tumor features and exposures. Results obtained with different assays were generally consistent. Receptor levels varied most significantly with body mass index (BMI), a factor that was inversely related to risk among premenopausal women and directly related to risk among postmenopausal women with larger tumors. After adjustment for correlated markers, exposures and pathologic characteristics, PR and HER2 AQUA levels were inversely related to BMI among premenopausal women (p-trend = 0.01, both comparisons), whereas among postmenopausal women, PR levels were associated directly with BMI (p-trend = 0.002). Among postmenopausal women, analyses demonstrated that BMI was related to an interaction of PR and HER2: odds ratio (OR) = 0.86 (95% CI = 0.69-1.07) for low PR and HER2 expression vs. OR = 1.78 (95% CI = 1.25-2.55) for high expression (p-heterogeneity = 0.001). PR and HER2 levels in breast cancer vary by BMI, suggesting a heterogeneous etiology for tumors related to these markers.

RESUMO

Analysis of gene expression data suggests that breast cancers are divisible into molecular subtypes which have distinct clinical features. This study evaluates whether pathologic features and etiologic associations differ among molecular subtypes. We evaluated 804 women with invasive breast cancers and 2,502 controls participating in a Polish Breast Cancer Study. Immunohistochemical stains for estrogen receptor alpha, progesterone receptor, human epidermal growth factor receptors (HER2 and HER1), and cytokeratin 5 were used to classify cases into five molecular subtypes: luminal A, luminal B, HER2-expresing, basal-like, and unclassified. Relative risks were estimated using adjusted odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals. We observed that compared with the predominant luminal A tumors (69%), other subtypes were associated with unfavorable clinical features at diagnosis, especially HER2-expressing (8%) and basal-like (12%) tumors. Increasing body mass index significantly reduced the risk of luminal A tumors among premenopausal women (odds ratios, 0.71; 95% confidence intervals, 0.57-0.88 per five-unit increase), whereas it did not reduce risk for basal-like tumors (1.18; 0.86-1.64; P(heterogeneity) = 0.003). On the other hand, reduced risk associated with increasing age at menarche was stronger for basal-like (0.78; 0.68-0.89 per 2-year increase) than luminal A tumors (0.90; 0.95-1.08; P(heterogeneity) = 0.0009). Although family history increased risk for all subtypes (except for unclassified tumors), the magnitude of the relative risk was highest for basal-like tumors. Results from this study have shown that breast cancer risk factors may vary by molecular subtypes identified in expression studies, suggesting etiologic, in addition to clinical, heterogeneity of breast cancer.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: Early amnion rupture (EAR, EARS, EAROD) may be the cause of amniotic bands and sheets development, which may lead to different fetal defects--from minor finger amputation, chiloschisis or palatoschisis to major amputation, acranius, deep paroschisis or broad body covering cleavage. DESIGN: The aim of this report was to analyse cases of fetal malformation, which might have been caused by EARS. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective analysis of 3173 autopsies performed within a span of 14 years (1989-2003). RESULTS: Among 744 cases of malformations 14 cases of fetuses and newborns presented developmental anomalies, which probably were the consequences of EARS. CONCLUSIONS: The EARS is probably more frequent than it is generally presumed, but it is very often impossible to find remnants of bands and sheets. Nevertheless, the presence of at least two typical anomalies excludes a different cause than early amnion rupture and amniotic bands.
