This nationwide study demonstrates that intraoperative tumor perforation in colon cancer is associated with statistically significant reduced long-term survival and increased postoperative mortality.
Cystadenomas of the seminal vesicle are extremely rare benign tumours, which only have been reported seven times earlier in the literature. The first Danish case is reported with discussion of symptomatology, pathology and treatment.
Twelve cases of adenolymphoma with inflammation are described. Pre-operatively, three of these patients presented clinical signs of inflammation in the parotid gland. In ten cases purulent exudate could be aspirated from the tumour. Rupture of the cyst may cause an aseptic inflammation in the surrounding tissue. It is concluded that adult patients with clinical or cytological signs of inflammation in the parotid gland must be supervised until the gland is normal in order not to miss an underlying tumour.
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.
