Background

Synovial sarcoma, a highly aggressive soft tissue sarcoma, is mostly seen among young people and tends to occur in the extremities. It most commonly metastasizes to the lungs, and symptoms such as chest tightness, shortness of breath, and coughing are common after metastasis. However, multiple spontaneous pneumothorax is relatively rare. This article aims to further enhance the understanding of synovial sarcoma by introducing a case of pulmonary metastasis after surgery for synovial sarcoma originating from the sole of the foot and reviewing relevant literature.

Case

The Cardiothoracic Surgery Department of the Northeast Yunnan Central Hospital Region admitted a 40-year-old male patient. He had previously undergone surgery for synovial sarcoma on the left foot dorsum. Seven years after the surgery, the patient experienced two spontaneous pneumothorax events. A chest CT scan revealed solid nodules in the upper lobe of the left lung. Our department performed surgical removal, and pathology confirmed metastatic pulmonary synovial sarcoma. After the surgery, the patient's symptoms improved significantly, and there were no further pneumothorax attacks. The patient was then transferred to the oncology department for further treatment to improve prognosis.

Conclusion

Pulmonary metastasis of synovial sarcoma is not uncommon, and a considerable number of patients are found to have no surgical opportunity when diagnosed. In this case, the patient presented with a single solid nodule, and we adopted surgery as the first-line treatment, combined with a comprehensive treatment plan of postoperative chemotherapy to further improve the patient's prognosis.

Background

Basocellular carcinoma (BCC) is the most prevalent skin malignancy, often localizing to the UV-exposed skin of the face. While most BCC is relatively indolent, aggressive subtypes, including infiltrative BCC, pose the treatment challenges of ensuring functional and aesthetic preservation with a high risk of recurrence.

Case

A 78-year-old female patient complained of recurrent left chin BCC of infiltrative subtype, which was first treated in 2013 by wide local excision and adjuvant radiotherapy. Recurrent carcinoma was reported in 2017, 2021, and most recently in 2023. The most recent recurrence presented with scar contracture, facial asymmetry, and drooping of the lip. Surgical resection involved extensive excision of the lower lip and chin, exposing the mandible. Reconstruction was achieved with the help of bilaterally designed Karapandzic flaps for the lip and a bilobed rotational flap for the chin defect. Although no chemotherapy and immunotherapy were given, the functional and aesthetic result were satisfactory. The procedure was executed while preserving the pertinent neurovascular structures, maintaining oral competence, and restoring the lower face. The Karapandzic flap was helpful in maintaining the lip function, whereas the chin was reconstructed using the bilobed rotational flap. Post-operative histology confirmed the diagnosis of BCC with squamous differentiation, which had clear margins. The patient did well and the cosmetic and functional outcome was satisfactory without any disease at 18 months after surgery.

Conclusion

This case sheds light on the difficulties encountered in treating recurrent facial BCC in developing countries. In the absence of systemic therapies, advanced surgical techniques and intensive follow-up resulted in a long disease-free period with good functional and aesthetic outcomes, thanks to the successful use of innovative reconstruction even in a low-resource setting.

Objective

Currently, chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CART) therapy represents a highly effective approach for relapsed/refractory B-cell lymphomas. However, it also carries treatment-related risks. Limited data are available on the risks associated with CART therapy in patients with gastrointestinal involvement in B-cell lymphomas. Therefore, we conducted a retrospective cohort study to address this gap in knowledge.

Methods

During the period from May 2019 to August 2022, a total of 26 patients recurrent/refractory with recurrent/refractory B-cell lymphoma involving the gastrointestinal tract enrolled. Pathology confirmed CD19 antigen expression in tumor tissues. The disease status of patients who failed multiple lines of therapy was progressive disease (PD). Before CART cell infusion, patients received an FC regimen (fludarabine and cyclophosphamide) lymphodepletion. Quantitative PCR and flow cytometry were adopted for monitoring CART cell kinetics and function, with a focus on gastrointestinal AEs during treatment. The overall response rate (ORR) of the 26 patients was 61.5% (16/26), while the complete response rate (CR) was 23.1% (6/26). Their median follow-up time was 22.49 months, while the medians of overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were 10.88 and 5.47 months, respectively. The 1-year OS and PFS rates were 45% and 42.3%, respectively. The prevalence of gastrointestinal complications was 21/26 (80.7%), including gastrointestinal hemorrhage in 11/26 (42.3%), emesis and diarrhea in 9/26 (34.6%), as well as intestinal obstruction in 2/26 (7.7%). A total of three patients (3/26, 11.5%) died of gastrointestinal hemorrhage. The gastrointestinal hemorrhage group exhibited markedly lower ORR and inferior OS compared to the non-hemorrhage group.

Conclusion

Generally, the CART cell therapy is valid in relapsed/refractory B-cell lymphoma with gastrointestinal involvement, but gastrointestinal bleeding is a unique risk factor that requires special attention, particularly in patients with high gastrointestinal tumor burden, as it is associated with poor efficacy and survival.

Background

Recently, microRNAs (miRNAs) have been applied as biomarkers for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients. Early diagnosis and management of DLBCL can improve patient survival and prognosis.

Aims

This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the diagnostic and prognostic accuracy of miRNA biomarkers in DLBCL patients.

Methods

We used the keywords “diffuse large B-cell lymphoma” and “microRNA” to search databases for original publications until June 14, 2023. Specificity, sensitivity, and AUC were used to assess diagnostic accuracy, and the prognostic value was assessed using the overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) hazard ratio (HR). A subgroup analysis was performed based on the sample type acquired to investigate the heterogeneity.

Results

Thirteen diagnostic and 33 prognostic studies were included from 839 articles. The Reitsma bivariate model estimated a sensitivity of 0.788 (95% CI: 0.733–0.834, p < 0.001), a specificity of 0.727 (95% CI: 0.654–0.790, p < 0.001), and an AUC of 0.824 in. The pooled AUC was 0.7385 (95% CI: 0.6847–0.7923, p < 0.0001). The pooled OS and PFS HRs (> 1) were 2.2847 (95% CI: 1.7248–3.0263, p < 0.0001) and 2.4883 (95% CI: 1.7367–3.5650, p < 0.0001). The pooled OS and PFS HRs (< 1) were 0.4965 (95% CI: 0.3576–0.6894, p < 0.0001) and 2.4883 (95% CI: 1.7367–3.5650, p < 0.0001). MiR-155 diagnostic values had a sensitivity of 0.710 (p > 0.1) and a specificity of 0.725 (p < 0.05), with an AUC of 0.776. miR-21 diagnostic values had an AUC of 0.8468 (p < 0.0001) and OS HR of 2.8938.

Conclusion

MicroRNAs could serve as a powerful diagnostic and prognostic tool in DLBCL.

Integration of Gastric Cancer RNA-Seq Datasets Along With PPI Network Suggests That Nonhub Nodes Have the Potential to Become Biomarkers
IF 1.5 Q4 ONCOLOGY Pub Date : 2025-01-24 DOI: 10.1002/cnr2.70126

Background

The breakthrough discovery of novel biomarkers with prognostic and diagnostic value enables timely medical intervention for the survival of patients diagnosed with gastric cancer (GC). Typically, in studies focused on biomarker analysis, highly connected nodes (hubs) within the protein–protein interaction network (PPIN) are proposed as potential biomarkers. However, this study revealed an unexpected finding following the clustering of network nodes. Consequently, it is essential not to overlook weakly connected nodes (nonhubs) when determining suitable biomarkers from PPIN.

Methods and Results

In this study, several potential biomarkers for GC were proposed based on the findings from RNA-sequencing (RNA-Seq) datasets, along with differential gene expression (DGE) analysis, PPINs, and weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA). Considering the overall survival (OS) analysis and the evaluation of expression levels alongside statistical parameters of the PPIN cluster nodes, it is plausible to suggest that THY1, CDH17, TGIF1, and AEBP1, categorized as nonhub nodes, along with ITGA5, COL1A1, FN1, and MMP2, identified as hub nodes, possess characteristics that render them applicable as biomarkers for the GC. Additionally, insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-binding protein-2 (IGFBP2), classified as a nonhub node, demonstrates a significant negative correlation with both groups within the same cluster. This observation underscores the conflicting findings regarding IGFBP2 in various cancer studies and enhances the potential of this gene to serve as a biomarker.

Conclusion

The findings of the current study not only identified the hubs and nonhubs that may serve as potential biomarkers for GC but also revealed a PPIN cluster that includes both hubs and nonhubs in conjunction with IGFBP2, thereby enhancing the understanding of the complex behavior associated with IGFBP2.

Background

Neuroendocrine tumors of the thymus (NETT) are rare and malignant tumors that arise in the anterior mediastinum. These tumors can exhibit aggressive behavior and may involve surrounding critical structures, such as the superior vena cava. This case contributes to the literature by presenting a recurrent thymic carcinoma with invasion of major blood vessels, including the superior vena cava, and the complexities involved in its surgical management.

Case

A 51-year-old male with no significant medical history presented with eyelid edema and a mediastinal mass. Diagnostic imaging, including positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT), revealed a malignant anterior mediastinal mass with possible metastasis. The patient underwent thoracoscopic resection of the tumor and wedge resection of the left upper lobe of the lung. Postoperative pathology confirmed a neuroendocrine carcinoma (G3), staged as Masaoka IVa. Despite aggressive surgery, the patient developed recurrent metastasis involving mediastinal lymph nodes and the superior vena cava. The patient underwent complex surgery involving vascular replacement, pericardial resection, and superior vena cava reconstruction, followed by adjuvant chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and immunotherapy.

Conclusion

This case highlights the challenges of managing advanced NETT, particularly with invasion of major vascular structures. It emphasizes the importance of early diagnosis, complete surgical resection, and tailored adjuvant therapies, including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and immunotherapy, to improve survival outcomes. The lessons learned from this case contribute to refining treatment strategies for similar cases, advocating for aggressive surgical approaches and the potential benefit of novel therapeutic agents in the management of advanced NETT.

Background

Sex differences in lung cancer survival are well-established, but the gap between Faroese men and women is especially pronounced. Faroese women have some of the highest 1- and 5-year relative survival rates in the Nordic region, while Faroese men have some of the lowest. This study investigates these survival disparities by analyzing demographic, clinical, and temporal factors in Faroese lung cancer patients from 2015 to 2020.

Methods

All lung cancer cases registered in the Faroese Cancer Registry from 2015 to 2020 were included. Data on age, sex, civil status, cancer type, stage, smoking history, comorbidities, and performance status were extracted from electronic patient records. Sex-based differences were analyzed and overall survival rates were estimated using Kaplan–Meier plots.

Results

Significant sex differences were observed in cancer staging at diagnosis (p = 0.03), with 25.8% of women diagnosed at Stage I compared to 8.8% of men. Gender-specific patterns also emerged: women hadlonger symptomatic periods, while men experienced longer diagnostic and treatment times, though with overlapping confidence intervals.

Conclusions

Our findings reveal significant sex disparities in lung cancer staging at diagnosis in the Faroe Islands, which may the survival differences. The longer diagnostic period in men likely contributes to their lower survival rates. These results highlight the need for targeted interventions to reduce these disparities and improve patient outcomes.

Alemayehu, Amanuel Kassu Asefa, Fozia Abdela, Addisu Melkie

Background

Thromboembolic events are a common cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with cancer. While direct-acting oral anticoagulants (DOACs) have been established as the preferred agents of anticoagulation in most patients with cancer, data in resource-limited settings is limited.

Aims

The study aims to assess the comparative efficacy and safety of warfarin and rivaroxaban for cancer-associated thrombosis (CAT) in a resource-limited setting.

Methods and results

A single-center retrospective cohort study was conducted on 201 patients who were on follow-up from September 2021 to August 2023. The patients were categorized into two groups (1) warfarin and (2) rivaroxaban. They were then retrospectively followed for 12 months. The primary endpoint was a composite of recurrence of venous thromboembolism (VTE), major bleeding event, or all-cause mortality. The Cox regression model was used to compare the outcome of the two groups. The baseline mean (standard deviation) age of the patients was 48.4 (15.0) and 140 (69.7%) of them were female. 41.3% of the participants had one or more comorbidities, and the most common types of cancer were gynecologic (28.9%), hematologic (21.4%), and intra-abdominal (16.9%). The most common type of thrombosis was deep vein thrombosis (DVT) (77.1%). The primary composite outcome of VTE recurrence, major bleeding event, and all-cause mortality occurred in 25 (24.3%) patients in the warfarin group and 11 (11.2%) in the rivaroxaban group (hazard ratio (HR), 0.48; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.24–0.97; p = 0.041).

Conclusion

Rivaroxaban was found to be more efficacious and safer than warfarin for patients with CAT in a resource-limited setting. This finding is congruent with reports from resource-abundant countries and recommendations from major international societies.

Background

The optimal management strategy for Stage IV rectal cancer with potentially treatable liver metastases remains controversial, particularly regarding the role of pelvic radiotherapy (RT).

Aims

We intend to investigate the impact of pelvic RT on oncological outcomes of rectal cancer with potentially treatable liver metastasis.

Methods and Results

This retrospective study included 83 patients diagnosed with rectal cancer and synchronous liver metastases from June 2012 to January 2022. All patients underwent radical surgery for rectal cancer and treatment of synchronous liver metastases, as determined by a multidisciplinary team (MDT). We divided the 83 patients into two treatment groups: chemoradiotherapy and surgery (CRT + S) and chemotherapy and surgery (C + S). The CRT + S group (n = 40) received pelvic RT, systemic therapy, and liver metastasis treatment. The C + S group (n = 43) received systemic therapy and liver metastasis treatment only. A total of 83 patients were analyzed with a median follow-up of 45 months (range 12–127 months). In the CRT + S group, 48.2% (40/83) of patients underwent chemoradiotherapy, while the C + S group comprised 51.8% (43/83) of patients who received chemotherapy only. The CRT + S group demonstrated significantly longer local recurrence-free survival compared to the C + S group (median 37.5 vs. 34 months; p = 0.011). In addition, patients in the CRT + S group had a longer median overall survival (OS) compared to the C + S group (46.50 vs. 44.0 months; p = 0.0497). Notably, achieving no evidence of disease (NED) status after definitive treatment for both primary and liver metastases was associated with improved OS (p = 0.008).

Conclusion

This study suggests that the addition of pelvic RT to multimodality therapy for patients with rectal cancer and potentially treatable liver metastases may improve local control and long-term survival. The findings support the consideration of RT in the clinical management of this patient population.

Background

Cancer is a major cause of mortality. Timely information about cancer mortality trends is essential for prioritizing health programs.

Aims

This study aims to use a Joint point regression model to predict the mortality rates of the top 10 common cancers in Babol City.

Methods

This cross-sectional study considered all registered cancer-related deaths from 2013 to 2021 in the Babol University of Medical Sciences' death registration and classification system. Crude and age-standardized rates and cancer trends were calculated and predicted for the next 5 years, overall and by type of cancer and gender.

Results

Over these 9years, 2417 deaths from the 10 common cancers were recorded. We observed an increase in mortality rates with a slope of 12.05% from 2013 to 2016, and a gentler slope of 3.2% from 2016 to 2021. Cancer mortality rates are predicted to increase by 6.43% in the next 5 years without intervention. Detailed analysis indicates that breast cancer will have the highest mortality rate during 2022–2026, rising by 13.6% annually. Predictions based on gender indicate that, breast cancer mortality will increase by 13.6% annually for women. Also, stomach cancer mortality rates will increase by 0.15% in men annually.

Conclusion

Cancer mortality in Babol remains a significant public health issue with an increasing trend. Nevertheless, these rising mortality rates require urgent interventions, including cancer prevention programs, increased access to medical services, and improved quality of life.

背景:癌症是导致死亡的主要原因。关于癌症死亡率趋势的及时信息对于确定健康规划的优先次序至关重要。目的:本研究旨在利用联合点回归模型预测巴博勒市十大常见癌症的死亡率。方法:本横断面研究考虑了2013年至2021年在巴博尔医科大学死亡登记和分类系统中登记的所有癌症相关死亡。计算并预测了未来5年的总体、癌症类型和性别的粗标准率和年龄标准化率以及癌症趋势。结果:9年间,共有2417人死于10种常见癌症。我们观察到,从2013年到2016年,死亡率以12.05%的斜率上升,从2016年到2021年,死亡率的斜率较缓,为3.2%。在没有干预的情况下,预计未来5年癌症死亡率将增加6.43%。详细分析表明,2022-2026年期间,乳腺癌的死亡率最高,每年上升13.6%。基于性别的预测表明,女性乳腺癌死亡率每年将增加13.6%。此外,男性胃癌死亡率每年将增加0.15%。结论:巴博勒的癌症死亡率仍然是一个重要的公共卫生问题,并有上升趋势。然而,这些不断上升的死亡率需要紧急干预措施,包括癌症预防计划,增加医疗服务的可及性,以及提高生活质量。
