MR Imaging of Pleural Neoplasms
Topics in Magnetic Resonance Imaging, 2018The pleura may be affected by primary tumors or metastatic spread of intrathoracic or extrathoracic neoplasms. Primary pleural neoplasms represent ∼10% of all pleural tumors, and malignant lesions are more common than benign lesions. The most common primary tumors include malignant pleural mesothelioma and solitary fibrous tumor.

Diffuse neoplasms of the pleural serosa
La radiologia medica, 2012This study describes the diffuse neoplastic conditions that may affect pleural membranes. These include mesothelioma, the most important and common malignancy of pleural origin, and metastatic involvement by carcinomas, lymphomas and thymomas. On the basis of diagnostic imaging, we identify the distinctive features of pleural involvement by each of ...

Pulmonary neoplasms simulating interlobar pleural effusions
Clinical Radiology, 1991Loculated pleural effusions simulating neoplasms are a well known pitfall. The reverse is less well recognized. We describe three cases where tumours were initially diagnosed as loculated effusions. The differentiation of these two entities is discussed.

Malignant Nonepithelial Lung and Pleural Neoplasms
2018Mesenchyme-derived malignant neoplasms of the lung are rare, although virtually any type of soft-tissue sarcoma can occur in the lungs, ranging from tumors of low malignant potential to high-grade sarcomas. Among them, the most common tumors include inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor, solitary fibrous tumor, epithelioid hemangioendothelioma, and ...

Molecular Genetics of Lung and Pleural Neoplasms
2008Molecular pathology involves study of nucleic acids, genes, and gene products. The development and progression of human cancers are linked to genetic instability and the accumulation of multiple genetic mutations, which can be investigated with the tools of molecular pathology.
