[Tardive cecal metastasis from ovarian cancer: a case report].

Intestinal insolvement is a frequent sequela of metastatic ovarian cancer may be syncronous or following ovaric resection, after several years of disease free condition. The authors herein describe a clinical report of a case of cecal metastatic neoplasm due to ovarian cancer treated with surgical resection 24 years before.

Adenocarcinoma↗

Pseudolymphoma presenting as a cecal tumor.

A 7-yr-old with abdominal pain and melena had a barium enema which revealed a cecal lesion that proved to be a pseudolymphoma of the cecum and appendix--a site not previously reported.

Appendiceal Neoplasms↗

Endometriosis of the cecum and appendix: two case reports.

Two cases of endometriosis of the cecal area are reported. In one case, the endometriosis was located in the appendix causing intussusception into the cecum. Both cases were associated with localizations of endometriosis in the rectosigmoid.

Growth-hormone-releasing factor immunoreactivity in human endocrine tumors.

Seventy-three human tumors and adjacent nonneoplastic tissues were analyzed immunohistochemically for the presence of growth-hormone-releasing factor (GRF). Four of 9 pancreatic endocrine tumors, 2 of 3 appendiceal carcinoids, and 1 of 5 cecal carcinoids were immunoreactive for GRF. One of the GRF-containing pancreatic tumors was associated with acromegaly. Histologically, the growth patterns of these tumors were variable, and the distribution of immunoreactive cells was patchy and irregular. There were no normal cells that contained GRF. These results indicate that GRF production by human tumors is more common than previously thought, although clinical acromegaly may not be apparent in patients who harbor such neoplasms.
