An 81-year-old woman visited a local clinic due to chest pain and a skin induration on the right precordia. She had a history of right breast cancer, and she had undergone a mastectomy and radiation therapy 10 years prior. Computed tomography (CT) imaging of the chest demonstrated a lobular mass

Angiosarcomas are a rare subtype of soft-tissue sarcomas originating from the vascular endothelium. Both retroperitoneal and omental angiosarcomas tend to be aggressive and rapidly fatal if not amenable to early intervention. In this report, we describe an unusual case of high-grade angiosarcoma

Epithelioid angiosarcoma of bone is a rare entity. Secreted protein acidic and rich in cysteine (SPARC), or osteonectin, is a secreted glycoprotein that has been implicated in tumorigenesis. We report a case of epithelioid angiosarcoma involving the long bones of the lower extremity showing diffuse

BACKGROUND Uterine epithelioid angiosarcoma is extremely rare. Evidence-based advice regarding optimal management is lacking. METHODS We report the 22nd case in the world literature and review all the cases reported in English since 1900. An attempt is made to generate information that may help in

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of taxane regimens in patients with metastatic angiosarcoma. Forty-one patients with metastatic angiosarcoma treated at the National Cancer Center Hospital between January 1982 and January 2009 were retrospectively classified into 3 groups

Background: The evidence that albumin-bound paclitaxel (nab-paclitaxel) is safe and efficacious for the treatment of many types of malignant tumors is continuously increasing. However, the evidence and clinical data of nab-paclitaxel and

OBJECTIVE To describe transfusion practices for treatment of dogs undergoing splenectomy for splenic masses. METHODS Retrospective case series. METHODS 542 client-owned dogs. METHODS Medical records of dogs that underwent splenectomy for splenic masses at 2 referral institutions were reviewed.

Five autopsy cases of peliosis hepatis occurring as a late complication of thorotrast (ThO2) liver disease are described. The liver contained many blood-filled cystic spaces of various sizes. Marked sinusoidal dilatation, disruption of cell cords and reticulin fiber framework, and cystic dilatation

To investigate the clinical utility of C-reactive protein (CRP) determination in dogs, its plasma concentration was measured by a laser nephelometric method in 928 dogs with various diseases, and was compared with other inflammatory parameters. CRP concentration was elevated in various inflammatory

OBJECTIVE Homozygous individuals with alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) type PiZ have an increased risk of chronic liver disease and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). It is noteworthy that HCCs are composed by hepatocytes without accumulation of AAT, but the reason for this remains unclear. The

BACKGROUND Serum protein acidic and rich in cysteine (SPARC) is a matricellular glycoprotein, which regulates cell proliferation and facilitates intracellular transport of albumin bound particles including chemotherapeutic agents such as Nab-paclitaxel/ABI-007. Therefore the presence of SPARC may
