Renal cell carcinoma can have lung metastasis even after a long interval of radical nephrectomy (16 years after nephrectomy in our case). If any pulmonary nodule is diagnosed with a history of RCC, pulmonary metastasis of RCC should be suspected and should be appropriately treated.
Malignant transformation of mature cystic teratoma (MCTO) is a rare entity. Even rarer is the transformation of MCTO into undifferentiated carcinoma. We report a case of an 80‐year‐old woman with undifferentiated carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma component originating from mature cystic teratoma of the ovary.
Giant solitary trichoepithelioma (GST) is a rare adnexal skin tumor with hair structure differentiation. It varies from trichoepithelioma in size (>2cm) and location (common in thigh and perianal region). So far only 18 cases of GST have been reported worldwide. This is a case of GST in the thigh of a 42 year old man. This form of trichoepithelioma can be a cellular tumor which needs to be differentiated from trichoblastoma, keratotic basal cell carcinoma, nevoid basal cell carcinoma and microcystic adnexal carcinoma.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
