Sequential treatment with abiraterone followed
by enzalutamide or vice versa in patients with metastatic castration-
resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) is not generally recommended
in Sweden. However, selected patients, with few treatment
options, have received both treatments with promising results...

Male breast cancer is even rare and accounts for only 1% of all cases of breast cancer. Synchronous or
metachronous occurrences of both male breast cancer and prostate cancer are rarely reported, but provide
insight into their genetic and hormonal biology. In this study, we report...
Retinoblastoma (RB) is the most frequent infraorbital tumor in childhood. Diffuse Anterior Retinoblastoma (DAR) is a rare variant of RB with minimal retinal involvement and a prevailing development in the anterior segment...
Thyroid carcinomas are uncommon in childhood and adolescence. Treatment for Differentiated Thyroid Carcinoma (DTC) in pediatric patients is based mainly on evidence from adult series due to lack of data from pediatric cohorts. Our objective was to evaluate the presentation, the contribution of therapy by iodine 131 and long-term outcome in patients with...
Cytotoxic effect of hydro alcoholic, water extract and chloroform fraction of Descurainia sophia L. seeds against different cell lines including HT-29, Caco-2, T47D and L929 were studied using MTT method. Hydro alcoholic extract and chloroform fraction showed anti-proliferative effects against L929 cells with IC50 of 1667/918±129/38...
Multimodal analgesia regimen has a cornerstone component involving local wound infiltration with analgesic agents to manage and enhance post-operative pain to increase patient satisfaction...
A phase-II study of SBRT for localized prostate cancer at low/intermediate risk (according to NCCN score) was carried out between November 2015 and July 2017.
In this report, we will document the preliminary results in terms of acute toxicity...
Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (HNSCC) is a common cause of morbidity and mortality among non-communicable diseases. The associated oxidative stress might lead to an alteration of lipid profile which is detrimental for the condition. Therefore, this study was planned to analyze lipid profile in HNSCC patients before and after treatment...
Cholangio Carcinoma (CCA) is a gastrointestinal malignant carcinoma with high rate of recurrence and metastasis after resection during early stage. The common spread sites include lungs, adrenal glands, lymph nodes, and liver. Metastasis to the gastrointestinal tract us has occasionally been described in the literature...

In this case report we present an unusual appearance of myocardial uptake of Tc-99m HDP in a 82-year-old renal transplant patient who was imaged while looking for metastases from adenocarcinoma of the prostate. The case report, therefore, discusses the possible causes of such an appearance and reviews the literature concerning this phenomenon...
Melanoma is a group of malignant tumors originating from melanocytes. Although skin represents the primary localization of the disease, extra-cutaneous sites may be the uvea, leptomeninges as well as Gastro-Intestinal (GI) tract...
The large family of tripartite motif-containing proteins (TRIMs) has attracted attention in the recent years mostly due to that many of these proteins have E3 ligase activity and are actively involved in the work of the innate immune system and in antiviral response. The diversity of TRIMs is manifested in the diversity of molecular mechanisms they use to take part in the intracellular signaling pathways of the immune system...
Basal cell carcinoma originating from undifferentiated cells of the basal cell layer of the epidermis or
the outer root sheath of the hair follicle is the most common malignant tumor of the skin. Surgical
excision, cryotherapy, curettage and radiotherapy are the different treatment options for the disease,
and the most common of these is excision...
