TITLE: [Muscle tumor in a girl with HIV infection: extranodal non-Hodgkin's lymphoma]
PUBDATE: 20030501
Non-Hodgkin's lymphomas are the most common cancers in children with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. Extranodal disease is the most common form of clinical presentation. Treatment with aggressive chemotherapy and highly active antiretroviral therapy has improved the prognosis of these children. We present a 10-year-old severely immunocompromised girl with HIV infection and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma manifested by a muscle mass.

TITLE: Marginal modeling of multilevel binary data with time-varying covariates.
PUBDATE: 20040701
We propose and compare two approaches for regression analysis of multilevel binary data when clusters are not necessarily nested: a GEE method that relies on a working independence assumption coupled with a three-step method for obtaining empirical standard errors, and a likelihood-based method implemented using Bayesian computational techniques. Implications of time-varying endogenous covariates are addressed. The methods are illustrated using data from the Breast Cancer Surveillance Consortium to estimate mammography accuracy from a repeatedly screened population.

TITLE: [Radiotherapy and chemotherapy in the treatment of oesophageal carcinoma]
PUBDATE: 20041101
Surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy are the three major arms of treatment for cancer of the oesophagus, and combined modality therapy is required to treat advanced disease. Exclusive chemoradiotherapy is a feasible option for locoregionally advanced disease in responder patients. Elective surgery as a palliative procedure should not be regarded as a standard option in patients with metastatic or non-resectable oesophageal cancer. Surgery appears more and more as an adjuvant therapy in the curative treatment of oesophageal cancer, especially for advanced tumours.

The aim of this paper is to explore how the project could help inpatients and outpatients to address their psychological needs and come to some understanding of their situation, following their diagnosis of cancer.

Association of endocervicosis with endometriosis is feasible due to a müllerian origin of both entitties. Bladder endocervicosis is an exceptional entity that can be present in young women as a bladder mass like a bladder cancer.

Cancer metastasis can affect any part of the nervous system. When the peripheral nervous system is involved, the usual targets are cranial nerves, nerve roots and plexi. However, peripheral nerves and muscles can also be affected by compression or infiltration of neoplastic cells. This review focuses in the diagnosis and treatment of metastatic complications of cancer involving plexi, peripheral nerves and muscles.

TITLE: Dupuytren's contracture and sarcoma.
PUBDATE: 20020201
In order to study possible connections between Dupuytren's contracture and sarcoma we analysed the records of 18 patients who developed sarcoma 5 years or more after surgery for Dupuytren's contracture. We found an increased frequency of fibrosarcoma and malignant fibrous histiocytoma, but these patients did not differ from the other patients in the study group. Our analysis suggests that neither smoking, diabetes nor cancer syndromes can explain why patients with Dupuytren's contracture have a higher incidence of sarcoma.

Peritoneal carcinomatosis should no longer be considered as an automatically terminal disease in abdominal cancer patients. The aim of this comprehensive review of the literature was to evaluate the indications and contraindications of intraperitoneal hyperthermic chemotherapy with extensive cytoreduction surgery. Several aspects of the procedure are detailed. Feasibility, short-term and survival results are analysed owing to a comprehensive review of published studies.

Oestrogen receptor (ER) alpha is a well established prognostic marker in breast cancer, and all patients who are ER alpha positive receive tamoxifen as adjuvant endocrine therapy. Although ER alpha predicts a favourable disease outcome, the usefulness of ER beta as a clinical prognostic marker remains to be defined. Here, we outline the history of both ERs and discuss the implications ER beta has to patients with breast cancer.

The surgical pathologist is expected to recognise gastrointestinal opportunistic infections in biopsies from HIV-positive patients, and patients immunocompromised iatrogenically by cancer therapy, steroid treatment and transplantation immunosuppression regimes. This review article presents the diagnostic features in gastrointestinal biopsies of microsporidia, cyclospora, isospora, cryptosporidia, mycobacteria, adenovirus, enteropathogenic bacteria, cryptococcus and leishmania. All of these infections have been diagnosed at our hospital in Sydney, Australia, since the AIDS epidemic began. A protocol for the examination and assessment of these gastrointestinal biopsies is presented and discussed.

The prevalence of the polycystic ovaries syndrome (PCOS) is high but it is a heterogeneous disorder with implications in numerous medical domains. Abdominal obesity and insulin resistance, which are the main metabolic disorders, are strong links between hormonal abnormalities and long-term medical consequences. The latter begin to be better understood. Some studies suggest that PCOS may increase the risk for several conditions, including type 2 diabetes, dyslipidemia, hypertension, cardiovascular disease and some cancers.

Telemedicine is defined as the practice of medicine from a distance, without the doctor's physical presence. Teleoncology consist of telediagnosis, teleconsultation, telepathology, telesurgery, distant help in computer-aided radiotherapy planning and telefollow-up. In this paper, we present the wide range of possibilities in providing cancer care at a distance. The theoretical and practical aspects of teleoncology and its current as well as future role in a multidisciplinary approach to cancer patients are discussed.

PUBDATE: 20020501
As the human genome sequence is determined, there is an emerging need for the analysis of human sequence variations as genetic markers in diagnosis, linkage and association studies, cancer research, and pharmacogenomics. There are several different techniques and approaches for detecting these genetic variations, and here we review some of these techniques and their application fields. However, all the techniques have advantages and disadvantages, andfactors such as laboratory instrumentation, personnel experience, required accuracy, required throughput, and cost often have to be taken into account before selecting a method.
