[A case of secretory carcinoma of the breast in an adult].

This report describes a case of secretory carcinoma of the breast in the adult. The patient, a 56-year-old female, had a tumor, 1 cm in size, in the upper outer quadrant of her left breast, and Patey's modified radical mastectomy was performed. No nodal metastases were found. Although secretory carcinoma of the breast has been called "juvenile carcinoma", 27 adult cases have been reported previously in the English and Japanese literature. It is reported to have a good prognosis but surgical therapy with an axillary node dissection is recommended, since axillary metastases have been found in approximately 30% of the recorded cases.

Renal cell carcinoma with intracaval tumor thrombus extending to the diaphragm: ultrasonography and surgical management.

We describe the successful management of a patient with intracaval extension of renal cell carcinoma to the level of the diaphragm. Ultrasonography delineated clearly the upper extent of the tumor thrombus and revealed no invasion of the vena caval wall at or above the entrance of the main hepatic veins. To prevent severe hypotension caused by intrapericardial control of the inferior vena cava, the aorta was clamped temporarily just above the celiac axis. The tumor was removed completely en bloc with the thrombus. Blood loss was minimal and the patient recovered promptly.

Endovascular therapeutic occlusion following bilateral carotid artery bypass for radiation-induced carotid artery blowout: case report.

A patient with breast cancer received radiation therapy to the upper chest wall. Twenty-two years later, she presented with repeated severe bleeding through a left lower neck ulcer. She was taken to surgery for hemostasis, which was not successful because the carotid artery was surgically inaccessible. To manage for explosive carotid blowout, we performed common carotid artery ligation and endovascular coil embolization after contralateral-external-carotid to ipsilateral-common-carotid artery bypass with a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) graft. The patient has experienced no ischemic events or bleeding since this treatment.
