Chemotherapy as treatment of choice in extrapulmonary undifferentiated small cell carcinomas [PDF]

Cancer, 1990
Extrapulmonary undifferentiated small cell carcinomas, especially those arising in the upper aerodigestive tract, form a group of neoplasms with a clinical behavior which resembles small cell carcinoma of the lung. In 11 patients treated by combination chemotherapy an objective response rate of 82% was achieved for a median duration of 8+ months ...

Mixed Neuroendocrine—Non‐Neuroendocrine Neoplasm (MiNEN) of the Gallbladder. A Case Report From a Low‐Resource Setting

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Mixed neuroendocrine–non‐neuroendocrine neoplasms (MiNENs) of the gallbladder are exceedingly rare entities. We report a case of a 35‐year‐old female with a palpable right hypochondrial mass. Imaging demonstrated a large polypoid gallbladder lesion with periportal lymphadenopathy. The patient underwent open cholecystectomy with lymphadenectomy.

Long‐Term Survival Following Nivolumab Treatment in Pulmonary Tumour Thrombotic Microangiopathy Associated With Cancer of Unknown Primary: A Case Report

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
Pulmonary tumour thrombotic microangiopathy (PTTM) is a rapidly fatal condition that is rarely diagnosed during life. Early clinical recognition and prompt nivolumab treatment resulted in long‐term survival in a patient with cancer of unknown primary‐associated PTTM.

The Bird's Nest Sign as an Initial Presentation of Primary Pulmonary B‐Cell Non‐Hodgkin Lymphoma With Plasmacytic Differentiation

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
We report a rare case of primary pulmonary B‐cell non‐Hodgkin lymphoma with plasmacytic differentiation presenting with bird's nest sign, mimicking an invasive fungal disease at first. This case highlights the importance of considering lymphoma in the differential diagnosis when infection is excluded and concurrently seeking a confirmatory diagnosis ...

Extrapulmonary Small Cell Carcinoma: An Unfortunate Case of Metastatic Disease [PDF]

Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2019
Abstract A 48- year-old man presented with weight loss and 3 weeks of right sided lower abdominal pain. Liver ultrasound and contrast-enhanced computed tomographic scan of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis revealed a 6.8 x 4.3 cm mass like thickening of ascending colon, with numerous hepatic lesions, enlarged mesenteric lymph nodes, peritoneal nodularity

Lung Metastases of Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma Masquerading as Temporary Improvement of Bilateral Diffuse Lung Opacities Following Treatment for Interstitial Lung Disease

Respirology Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2026.
A 75‐year‐old man was referred to our department with ground‐glass opacities (GGOs) and consolidation in both lungs on computed tomography. After an initial response to cyclophosphamide therapy, he returned with worsening dyspnea and was ultimately diagnosed with pulmonary metastases from pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

Genomic Evolution and Immune Contexture With Therapeutic Relevance in Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms

Cancer Science, Volume 117, Issue 10, Page 2619-2635, October 2026.
Lineage‐dependent immunogenomic landscapes and biologically informed therapy in pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms. Pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms display lineage‐dependent immunogenomic landscapes, in which genomic alterations, epigenetic states, antigen‐presentation status, immune‐cell infiltration, and suppressive microenvironments co‐evolve ...
