Cystic squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) of the jaws, including carcinoma cuniculatum, are rare, slow growing, and relentlessly invasive. The aim of this article is to present 12 cases, 4 of which were designated as carcinoma cuniculatum on the basis of deeply endophytic, anastomosing channels of cystic stratified squamous epithelium and keratin microabscesses. The other 8 were also cystic, but more heterogeneous morphologically and were diagnosed as well differentiated SCCs. Six patients were female, 6 were male (mean age = 74.0 years, range = 50-94 years). Six tumors affected the mandible, 6 the maxillary alveolus with or without extension into the hard palate. All patients underwent primary resection with neck dissection and were staged as T4a N0 M0. In 4 patients, diagnosis was delayed as a result of superficial biopsies and/or confusing histopathology. Cystic SCCs of the jaws can be difficult to diagnose and clinicoradiological correlation is essential. Long-term follow-up is mandatory.In the past years, several in vitro studies have addressed the pulmonary toxicity of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) and compared it with that caused by asbestos fibers, but their conclusions have been somewhat inconsistent and difficult to extrapolate to in vivo. Since cell coculture models were proposed to better represent the in vivo conditions than conventional monocultures, this work intended to compare the cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of MWCNT-7 (Mitsui-7) and crocidolite using A549 cells grown in a conventional monoculture or in coculture with THP-1 macrophages. Although a decrease in A549 viability was noted following exposure to a concentration range of MWCNT-7 and crocidolite, no viability change occurred in similarly exposed cocultures. Early events indicating epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) were observed which could explain apoptosis resistance. The comet assay results were similar between the two models, being positive and negative for crocidolite and MWCNT-7, respectively. An increase in the micronucleus frequency was detected in the cocultured A549-treated cells with both materials, but not in the monoculture. On the other hand, exposure of A549 monocultures to MWCNT-7 induced a highly significant increase in nucleoplasmic bridges in which those were found embedded. Our overall results demonstrate that (i) both materials are cytotoxic and genotoxic, (ii) the presence of THP-1 macrophages upholds the viability of A549 cells and increases the aneugenic/clastogenic effects of both materials probably through EMT, and (iii) MWCNT-7 induces the formation of nucleoplasmic bridges in A549 cells.Tumor-to-tumor metastasis is an unusual phenomenon wherein one distinct malignancy is present within the substance of another independent tumor. This event is rare, difficult to detect with imaging, and, due to conflicting terminology in the literature, can be challenging to classify. This article reports the first documented case of tumor-to-tumor metastasis involving prostatic adenocarcinoma and myxoid liposarcoma, reviews the available literature for carcinoma metastatic to sarcoma, and discusses the current situation within the context of the established criteria for the classification of combination tumors.Dentinoid has been mentioned as a frequent component in several types of benign odontogenic tumors; however, there are some other very rare dentinoid-producing odontogenic tumors that have been described, which are not recognized in the current World Health Organization Histological Classification of Odontogenic Tumours. In this context, we report an unusual malignant odontogenic tumor containing dentinoid located in the left maxilla of a 41-year-old man. The lesion was initially diagnosed and treated as a cemento-ossifying fibroma. After 7 years, a tumor was noted at the same location and was diagnosed as pleomorphic adenoma. The patient developed a new lesion 2 years later. Histological features included an epithelial proliferation of basaloid and clear cells, some with peripheral palisading, which were scattered both in a fibrous stroma and within an amorphous eosinophilic dentinoid product. Because of doubts about the first 2 diagnoses and the current situation, all histopathological slides were reviewed in our service as a consultation case, and the findings were consistent with the diagnosis of an odontogenic carcinoma with dentinoid. Immunohistochemical analysis was performed and an ultrastructural study by scanning electronic microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray microanalysis was made to characterize dentinoid material. After 1 year of follow-up, the patient is alive and free of the disease. This case highlights the wide variability regarding cytological evidence of malignancy, and adds a new case of odontogenic carcinoma with dentinoid, which represents a distinct entity with locally aggressive behavior and should be considered be included in a future World Health Organization Histological Classification of Tumours.BACKGROUND Casper-RX (MicroVention, Aliso Viejo, California, USA) is a dual-layer closed cell stent recently introduced as a carotid artery revascularization device. Although its effectiveness and safety has been proved in elective cases, there are contradictive results regarding its patency in emergency settings. The purpose of the study is to present our single-center experience with the Casper-RX stent in the emergency interventions. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/vu661013.html PATIENTS AND METHODS Consecutive patients who underwent emergency carotid artery stenting using Casper-RX system with or without additional intracranial thrombectomy between August 2016 and June 2019 at our institution were included. Primary end point was the short-term patency of the carotid stents evaluated before hospital discharge by use of Doppler ultrasonography. RESULTS Twenty-nine procedures performed on 28 patients were included in the study. All stents were patent on final angiograms. Acute stent occlusion was observed only in one case (3.4%) with a spontaneous cervical internal carotid artery dissection the day after the procedure. In 26 (89.6%) cases, an additional intracranial thrombectomy was performed with a successful recanalization rate of 96.1%. Seven adverse events occurred peri-/post-procedural two cases (6.9%) with iatrogenic dissection of distal cervical internal carotid artery during intracranial thrombectomy, two parenchymal hematoma type 2 (6.8%), and three patients (10.3%) developed massive infarction. CONCLUSION This study supports the safety and efficacy of the Casper-RX stent in emergency endovascular carotid artery revascularization procedures.
