Abstract

Abstract: Primary breast lymphoma is rare and it accounts for around 0.5% of malignant breast neoplasms. Small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) is a subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma originating from a B-cell lineage. This report presents a case of primary SLL of the breast with lung metastasis that had excellent clinical response. We reported a 67-year-old female complained a right breast mass that suddenly appeared after she got massage on her right left arm. The mass was swollen and painless with no systemic complications. The specimen was submitted to histopathology department and it revealed small diffuse lymphocytic lymphoma. Chest X-ray showed a lung metastasis. The patient was then treated with CHOP regimens (Cyclophosphamid, Doxorubicin, Vincristin, and Prednison) and the clinical result was excellent. The side effects of the medication were minimal. In conclusion, primary breast lymphocytic lymphoma is rare and this case highlights the differential diagnosis for a painless breast mass. The treatment must be individualized and multimodal, with chemotherapy being the most accepted treatment. Keywords: breast lymphoma; breast mass; malignancy

Abstract

Abstract: Pleomorphic adenoma is a type of tumor that affects the parotid glands. It is also called a benign mixed tumor (BMT) because it has both epithelial and myoepithelial cells. This type of tumor is the most frequent parotid gland tumor, making up about 66% of all such tumors in parotid glands. We reported a case of 12-year-old male patient with a lump on his parotid gland, measured 7x3x3cm at Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Hospital Manado. CT Scan results of neck region of the patient revealed that there was a mass in the right side colli area and right frontal sinusitis A histopathological examination of the tumor tissue showed that it was encapsulated by connective tissue and composed of proliferating epithelial and myoepithelial tumor cells, some with clear nuclei, arranged in solid and microcystic patterns, and interspersed with fibromyxoid stroma. The patient was diagnosed as parotid gland adenoma, therefore, a parotidectomy was performed on him. He was discharged home and advised to return for a check-up one week later to remove the stitches. At the two-month follow-up visit, he was stable and did not require any additional therapy. In conclusion, a parotidectomy shows good result in the patient with parotid gland adenoma. However, due to the recurrence rate of parotid gland malignancies, several oncologists prefer to observe the patient periodically trough follow up at policlinic. Early detection and right management are required to achieve the best prognosis. Keywords: pleomorphic adenoma; pediatric patient; parotid gland

Abstract

Abstract: Lenvatinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), has shown potential as a neoadjuvant therapy for inoperable thyroid cancer (TC). In this case series, we present three patients with unresectable thyroid tumors who responded favorably to lenvatinib treatment. A 60-year-old male with papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) experienced a 60% tumor volume reduction after five months of therapy. A 61-year-old male with medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) saw a 99% reduction after four months of lenvatinib and decrease of serum calcitonin and no residual disease six months after surgery. Lastly, a 67-year-old female with anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) showed a 70% tumor reduction and significant symptomatic relief. These cases highlight lenvatinib’s efficacy in reducing tumor size and stabilizing disease, improving surgical outcomes in patients initially deemed inoperable due to locally advanced tumors. Lenvatinib’s antitumor effects, driven by its antiangiogenic properties, suggest its potential as a valuable neoadjuvant treatment option in advanced thyroid cancer.

Abstract

Abstract: Soft-tissue sarcomas (STS) are rare and heterogeneous tumors originating from mesenchymal tissues. While surgical resection remains the primary treatment, not all patients are eligible for surgery, particularly in advanced stages. Drug-eluting bead transarterial chemoemboli zation (DEB-TACE) is a promising therapeutic option for such cases. This retrospective study evaluated the efficacy and safety of DEB-TACE in 30 patients with advanced STS at Prof. Dr. R. D. Kandou Hospital, Manado, from 2020 to 2023. The overall response rate (ORR) was 76.7% (p<0.05), with five patients achieving complete response and 18 showing partial response. The main adverse reactions included post-embolization syndrome (fever, pain, nausea, vomiting) and grade II or higher bone marrow suppression. Despite a morbidity rate of 93.3%, no treatment-related mortality was observed. In conclusion, DEB-TACE is an effective and safe treatment for advanced STS, providing superior short-term efficacy compared to traditional systemic chemotherapy. Keywords: soft tissue sarcoma; drug eluting bead; transarterial chemoembolization

Abstract

Trauma toraks merupakan penyebab signifikan dari morbiditas dan mortalitas, terutama dalam konteks multitrauma, dengan dampak kematian berkisar antara 20% hingga 25%. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui faktor prediktor terjadinya delayed hemothorax pada pasien dengan riwayat trauma tumpul toraks di RSUP Prof. Dr. R.D. Kandou Manado. Metode yang di guanakan metode penelitian dengan pendekatan kohort retrospektif, dengan cara consecutive sampling, analisis data dengan analisis deskriptif. Adapun hasil penelitian, ditemukan bahwa faktor prediktor yang signifikan adalah adanya fraktur tulang iga, jumlah fraktur iga 3 atau lebih, dan lokasi fraktur tulang iga. Usia dan kejadian kontusio paru tidak ditemukan sebagai faktor prediktor yang signifikan. Hasil penelitian juga menunjukkan bahwa pasien yang memiliki fraktur pada tulang iga ke 10-12, 6-9, dan 3-5 memiliki risiko lebih tinggi untuk mengalami delayed hemothorax.
