Holistic Approach to the Diagnosis and Treatment of Patients with Tumor Metastases to the Spine.

The treatment of neoplastic spine metastases requires multi-faceted assessment and an interdisciplinary approach to patients. The metastases do not show specific symptoms but are often the first confirmation of the presence of a primary tumor in a patient. The diagnostic process includes imaging and invasive procedures, e.g., biopsy. It is essential to qualify the patient for an appropriate treatment using dedicated scales. Decompression of the spinal cord is a critical issue to save or restore neurological function in a patient with spine metastases. Surgical treatment ought to meet three cri

A Perplexing Case of Bladder Mass Biopsy-Proven Neurosarcoidosis.

Sarcoidosis is a multi-organ systemic disease that presents with several clinical manifestations, and patients can develop neurologic complications. Neurosarcoidosis may be life-threatening; therefore, early recognition and treatment are key. Here, we present a case of a 55-year-old African American male who presented with a complaint of dizziness and left-sided weakness; he ultimately received a diagnosis of neurosarcoidosis after elaborate radiographic investigations and bladder mass biopsy. Neurosarcoidosis remains a diagnostic dilemma as it can clinically and radiographically mimic multipl

The Correspondence Between Magnetic Resonance Images and the Clinical and Intraoperative Status of Patients with Spinal Tumors.

ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION: Surgical treatment of tumors, particularly metastases to the spine, has become increasingly common owing to the progress in anesthesiology and spinal surgery and greater detectability. The patients qualified for surgeries are those with mechanical pain, fracture or at risk of vertebral fracture or neurological complications. The basis for qualification for different types of surgeries is clinical and imaging examination, particularly MRI and CT. Qualification should always be multidisciplinary and requires understanding and knowledge of its most essential aspects. When c

Concurrent Chylothorax, Chylopericardium, and Superior Vena Cava Syndrome in a Young Male With Primary Mediastinal Large B-cell Lymphoma: A Report of a Rare Case.

Primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma (PMBCL) is an uncommon and aggressive subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) that predominantly affects young adults and typically presents with a bulky anterior mediastinal mass. We report the case of a 23-year-old male who presented with progressive dyspnea, orthopnea, and facial swelling, subsequently found to have superior vena cava (SVC) syndrome, chylothorax, and chylopericardium, an exceedingly rare triad of complications. Diagnostic evaluation required integration of advanced imaging, fluid analysis, and histopathological confirmation, ultimatel

The Missing Link: Integrating Interventional Pain Management in the Era of Multimodal Oncology.

Cancer-related pain (CrP) is one of the most frequent and debilitating issues that affect the quality of life of patients with cancer. Systemic analgesics, particularly opioids, have been the cornerstone of pain management. However, the following shortcomings of the mentioned therapies, such as side effects, tolerance, and inadequate relief in refractory cases, make implementing a more complete, multimodal treatment plan necessary. Interventional pain management (IPM) uses specific invasive procedures, with different degree of invasiveness, such as nerve blocks, neurolysis, neuromodulation, an

Metastatic melanoma to the ovary in pregnancy: A case report.

Metastatic melanoma to the ovary is an uncommon presentation. We report a case of metastatic melanoma to the ovary that presented as a growing left adnexal mass during pregnancy and was thought to be benign by imaging and frozen section pathology. Here we discuss the challenges in radiologic and pathologic diagnosis, as well as considerations for the mother and newborn.

Targeting the Cancer-Neuronal Crosstalk in the Pancreatic Cancer Microenvironment.

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) represents one of the most aggressive solid tumors with a dismal prognosis and an increasing incidence. At the time of diagnosis, more than 85% of patients are in an unresectable stage. For these patients, chemotherapy can prolong survival by only a few months. Unfortunately, in recent decades, no groundbreaking therapies have emerged for PDAC, thus raising the question of how to identify novel therapeutic druggable targets to improve prognosis. Recently, the tumor microenvironment and especially its neural component has gained increasing interest in the

Peripheral Nerves in Cancer: Regulatory Roles and Therapeutic Strategies.

Cancer neuroscience has emerged as a transformative frontier in oncology research, focusing on the interplay between cancer cells and the nervous system. Cancer cells establish tumorspecific neural networks within tumor tissues via neurotrophic hijacking. The nervous system regulates tumor initiation, progression, and metastasis either directly by regulating signal transduction in tumor cells or indirectly by modulating the tumor microenvironment (TME). The positive feedback loop between cancer cells and nerves promotes tumor progression. Deciphering the regulatory role of nerves in tumor prog

The Radiologists' Guide to Spinal Separation Surgery: What Does the Surgeon Want to Know?

Spinal tumours are an uncommon but significant cause of pain, fractures, instability, and cord compression, leading to poor quality of life and mortality. Separation surgery is a rapidly advancing technique that has seen increased utilisation in the field of spinal oncology surgery. Separation surgery can be described as a resection technique that decompresses the spinal cord whilst creating an ablative target for high-dose stereotactic radiotherapy to achieve durable local control while minimising the risk of radiation myelopathy. This has facilitated the delivery of stereotactic radiotherapy

Persistent lactic acidosis in ALK-positive anaplastic large cell lymphoma: a case report and literature review.

Lactic acidosis is common in the ICU, but malignancy-associated type B lactic acidosis mediated by the clinical Warburg effect (CWE) is uncommon and easily missed when infection or organ dysfunction dominates the presentation. We report a 35-year-old man with a month of fever and progressive dyspnea who presented with persistent hyperlactatemia (peak 15.46 mmol/L) and markedly elevated LDH despite stable hemodynamics. Imaging revealed generalized lymphadenopathy, multifocal osteolytic lesions, and bilateral pleural effusions; infectious studies were unrevealing apart from chronic hepatitis B.

Multiple Extramedullary-Bone Related and/or Extramedullary Extraosseous Are Independent Poor Prognostic Factors in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma.

BackgroundExtramedullary (EM) lesions are common in multiple myeloma (MM) and are often related to the poor prognosis of MM but are scarcely understood.MethodsIn this retrospective study, the baseline characteristics of 357 newly diagnosed patients with extramedullary multiple myeloma (EMM) and their impact on the prognosis were analyzed. All patients received first-line treatment with bortezomib-based regimen.ResultsThe overall incidence rate of EM was 22.4%, and the detection rate of PET/CT was significantly higher than other imaging methods (P = 0.015). The cohorts consisted of 10 cases of

The erectile and ejaculatory implications of the surgical management of rectal cancer.

Colorectal cancer is a significant cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Although advances in surgical technology and technique have decreased mortality rates, surviving patients often experience sexual dysfunction as a common complication. The development of the lower anterior resection has greatly decreased the use of the radical abdominoperineal resection surgery, but even the less radical surgery can result in sexual dysfunction, including erectile and ejaculatory dysfunction. Improving the knowledge of the underlying causes of sexual dysfunction in this context and developing effectiv
