JUNE 1990 - CASE NO. 1 Rochester, Minnesota TISSUE FROM: Brain, left temporal parietal lobe ACCESSION NO. 26731 CLINICAL ABSTRACT : The patient is a 46 -year-old white ma le wh o experienced a head injury in 1960 but had no history of neurologic disturbances until 1982 at which time he noted the sudden onset of expressive aphasia. CT scan demonstrated a hypodense left temporoparietal lesion associated with a cyst. No enhancement was seen. - The patient elected to be medically observed over a five year interval, there being no intervention until symptoms interfered with his lifestyle. During that time he was maintained on phenobabital. The frequen cy of his partial complex seizures, which were characterized by expressive more than receptive aphasia, varied from one per month to six per week. They lasted from 1 to 30 minutes. No sensorimotor component was ever observed. Memory deficits followed the episodes. The first evidence of tumor enhancement was noted in 1984 and was seen to be somewhat more extensive in a 1986 study. -

EYELID & CONJUNCTIVAL TUMORS EYELID & CONJUNCTIVAL TUMORS 5 6 EYELID & CONJUNCTIVAL TUMORS Foreword Dr. Serge Morax I am honored to introduce this Photographic Atlas of palpebral and conjunctival tumors,which is the culmination of the close collaboration between Drs. Olivier Galatoire and Mathieu Zmuda of the A. de Rothschild Ophthalmological Foundation and Dr. Christine Levy-Gabriel of the Curie Institute. The subject is now of unquestionable importance and evidently of great interest to Ophthalmologists, whether they are orbital- palpebral specialists or not. Indeed, errors or delays in the diagnosis of tumor pathologies are relatively common and the consequences can be serious in the case of malignant tumors, especially carcinomas. Swift diagnosis and anatomopathological confirmation will lead to a treatment, discussed in multidisciplinary team meetings, ranging from surgery to radiotherapy. -

A Molecular Target for Human Glioblastoma
Kuan et al. BMC Cancer 2010, 10:468 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2407/10/468 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access MRP3: a molecular target for human glioblastoma multiforme immunotherapy Chien-Tsun Kuan1,2*†, Kenji Wakiya1,2†, James E Herndon II2, Eric S Lipp2, Charles N Pegram1,2, Gregory J Riggins3, Ahmed Rasheed1, Scott E Szafranski1, Roger E McLendon1,2, Carol J Wikstrand4, Darell D Bigner1,2* Abstract Background: Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is refractory to conventional therapies. To overcome the problem of heterogeneity, more brain tumor markers are required for prognosis and targeted therapy. We have identified and validated a promising molecular therapeutic target that is expressed by GBM: human multidrug-resistance protein 3 (MRP3). Methods: We investigated MRP3 by genetic and immunohistochemical (IHC) analysis of human gliomas to determine the incidence, distribution, and localization of MRP3 antigens in GBM and their potential correlation with survival. To determine MRP3 mRNA transcript and protein expression levels, we performed quantitative RT-PCR, raising MRP3-specific antibodies, and IHC analysis with biopsies of newly diagnosed GBM patients. We used univariate and multivariate analyses to assess the correlation of RNA expression and IHC of MRP3 with patient survival, with and without adjustment for age, extent of resection, and KPS. Results: Real-time PCR results from 67 GBM biopsies indicated that 59/67 (88%) samples highly expressed MRP3 mRNA transcripts, in contrast with minimal expression in normal brain samples. Rabbit polyvalent and murine monoclonal antibodies generated against an extracellular span of MRP3 protein demonstrated reactivity with defined MRP3-expressing cell lines and GBM patient biopsies by Western blotting and FACS analyses, the latter establishing cell surface MRP3 protein expression. -

Present for 4 weeks. Nodular fasciitis is a self-limited pseudosarcomatous proliferation that may cause clinical alarm due to its rapid growth. It is most common in young adults but occurs across a wide age range. This lesion is typically 3-5 cm and composed of bland fibroblasts and myofibroblasts without significant cytologic atypia arranged in a loose storiform pattern with areas of extravasated red blood cells. Mitoses may be numerous, but atypical mitotic figures are absent. Nodular fasciitis is a benign process, and recurrence is very rare (1%). Recent work has shown that the MYH9-USP6 gene fusion is present in approximately 90% of cases, and molecular techniques to show USP6 gene rearrangement may be a helpful ancillary tool in difficult cases or on small biopsy samples.
