Computed tomography findings of peritoneal tumour in the absence of primary lesions: preliminary study

Australian Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Primary peritoneal tumours are uncommon and include mesothelioma and carcinoma. Mesothelioma identification is challenging, as there are no established rapid diagnostic methods. In the absence of a simple means of diagnosis, evaluation often requires several invasive biopsies, highlighting the need to develop a definitive diagnostic method.

Simultaneous tongue metastasis from malignant pleural mesothelioma: Case report and literature review

Thoracic Cancer, 2021
Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a rare neoplasm of the serosal membranes. MPM usually manifests as local invasion, rarely with distant haematogenous metastases in different organs. Few cases of tongue metastasis have been documented.

Reproducibility of histological subtyping of malignant pleural mesothelioma [PDF]

, 2014
Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) has a very poor prognosis. Although clinical stage is currently the only reliable prognostic factor, histologic subtyping reportedly also affects prognosis.

MTAP Deficiency as a Metabolic Vulnerability in Cancer: Implications for Synthetic Lethal Therapy

Cancer Science, EarlyView.
MTAP deletion creates a therapeutically actionable metabolic vulnerability through MTA accumulation and PRMT5 dependency. This review summarizes the biochemical basis of MTAP‐directed synthetic lethality, emerging PRMT5/MAT2A inhibitors, clinicogenomic features of MTAP‐deleted tumors, and future strategies for precision oncology.

An Unusual Cause of Abdominal Ascites. [PDF]

, 2018
Abdominal ascites is most commonly caused by portal hypertension from liver cirrhosis. When present, portal hypertension is associated with an elevated serum-ascites albumin gradient (SAAG) ≥1.1 g/dL. In contrast, a SAAG < 1.1 g/dL suggests malignancy,

An Evaluation of Mortality Rates and Their Determinants in a Cohort of Former Asbestos Miners in South Africa

American Journal of Industrial Medicine, Volume 69, Issue 6, Page 446-460, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background A causal association between occupational asbestos exposure and lung disease, including pneumoconiosis and mesothelioma, is well established. Elevated mortality among former asbestos miners is expected. However, large‐scale South African studies examining all‐cause mortality in this population are lacking.
