Distant metastases do not metastasize
Cancer and Metastasis Reviews, 2010Distant metastases (MET) are for most solid cancers decisive life-threatening events. Data about MET-free survival and survival after MET show a strong dependency on the kind of cancer and the prognostic features. Nonetheless, within biological subgroups, the MET process is very homogenous. Therefore, the growth rate can be estimated from initiation of

PET Clinics, 2008
Many imaging techniques are available to evaluate metastatic spread to the liver. This article discusses the diagnostic performances of ultrasonography, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, positron emission tomography and the dual modality PET/CT.

Neurosurgery, 1986
Abstract A very unusual case of metastatic spread of a meningioma is described. The clinical presentation was of extradural spinal cord compression, without evidence of a primary tumor. Computed tomography did not reveal any intracranial meningioma; the histopathology of the extradural spinal tumor was identical with that of two ...

The Journal of Pathology, 2004
AbstractMetastatic disease is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. However, it is not clear if all metastases originate from the primary tumour or whether metastases themselves have the capacity to metastasize. In this review, the evidence for the latter phenomenon, and its biological and clinical implications, is discussed.

The Neurologist, 2004
Systemic cancer is the second most common cause of death for adults in the United States. Twenty percent of these patients develop neurologic symptoms sometime during their illness. An apparent increase in the incidence of both systemic cancers and resulting brain metastases are posing an increasing challenge to health care providers.

Radiologic Clinics of North America, 1987
This article discusses the role of imaging in the evaluation of patients with known or suspected malignancies. The radionuclide skeletal scintigram is the most sensitive imaging method for screening the skeleton for metastatic disease but is inherently nonspecific.

Optometry - Journal of the American Optometric Association, 2010
Orbital metastasis, although uncommon, is a condition optometrists should consider in a patient presenting with proptosis, ptosis, diplopia, or a lid mass with a history of cancer. However, in as many as 19% of cases, patients have no prior or concurrent history of systemic cancer when presenting with ophthalmic symptoms.

Medical Hypotheses, 1996
Results of experimental studies on cancer dissemination, as well as certain clinical observations, strongly suggest a relation between inflammation and tumor spread. Surgical trauma and postoperative septic complications can result in severe inflammation and in consequence worsening prognosis after curative surgery for colorectal cancer. Clinical signs
