Soliman1, Nicole D. Fleming1, Jing Gong2, Sarina A. Piha‑Paul2, Filip Janku 2, Bettzy Stephen 2 & Aung Naing 2* Vaginal and vulvar squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) are rare tumors that can be challenging to treat in the recurrent or metastatic setting. We present a case series of patients with vaginal or vulvar SCC who were treated with single‑agent pembrolizumab as part of a phase II basket clinical trial to evaluate efcacy and safety. Two cases of recurrent and metastatic vaginal SCC, with multiple prior lines of systemic chemotherapy and radiation, received pembrolizumab. One patient had signifcant reduction (81%) in target tumor lesions prior to treatment discontinuation at cycle 10 following confrmed progression of disease with new metastatic lesions (stable disease by irRECIST criteria). In contrast, the other patient with vaginal SCC discontinued treatment after cycle 3 due to disease progression. Both patients had PD‑L1 positive vaginal tumors and tolerated treatment well. One case of recurrent vulvar SCC with multiple surgical resections and prior progression on systemic carboplatin had a 30% reduction in her target tumor lesions following pembrolizumab treatment with a PD‑L1 positive tumor. Treatment was discontinued for grade 3 mucositis after cycle 5. Pembrolizumab may provide some clinical beneft to some patients with vaginal or vulvar SCC and is overall safe to utilize in this population. Future studies are needed to evaluate the efcacy of pembrolizumab in these rare tumor types and to identify predictive biomarkers of response.

  • Case 3.1 X-Linked Agammaglobulinaemia (Bruton’S Disease)

    Case 3.1 X-Linked Agammaglobulinaemia (Bruton’S Disease)

    Case 3.1 X-linked agammaglobulinaemia (Bruton’s disease) Peter was born after an uneventful pregnancy, weighing 3.1 kg. At 3 months, he developed otitis media; at the ages of 5 months and 11 months, he was admitted to hospital with untypable Haemophilus influenzae pneumonia. These infections responded promptly to appropriate antibiotics on each occasion. He is the fourth child of unrelated parents: his three sisters showed no predisposition to infection. Examination at the age of 18 months showed a pale, thin child whose height and weight were below the third centile. There were no other abnormal features. He had been fully immunized as an infant (at 2, 3 and 4 months) with tetanus and diphtheria toxoids, acellular pertussis, Hib and Mening. C conjugate vaccines and polio (Salk). In addition, he had received measles, mumps and rubella vaccine at 15 months. All immunizations were uneventful. Immunological investigations (Table 3.4) into the cause of his recurrent infections showed severe reduction in all three classes of serum immunoglobulins and no specific antibody production. Although there was no family history of agammaglobulinaemia, the lack of mature B lymphocytes in his peripheral blood suggested a failure of B-cell differentiation and strongly supported a diagnosis of infantile X-linked agammaglobulinaemia (Bruton’s disease). This was confirmed by detection of a disease-causing mutation in the Btk gene. The antibody deficiency was treated by 2-weekly intravenous infusions of human normal IgG in a dose of 400 mg/kg body weight/month. Over the following 7 years, his health steadily improved, weight and height are now on the 30th centile, and he has had only one episode of otitis media in the last 4 years.

    Olsen et al. BMC Public Health 2012, 12:1082 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2458/12/1082 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Incidence and cost of anal, penile, vaginal and vulvar cancer in Denmark Jens Olsen1*, Tine Rikke Jørgensen2, Kristian Kofoed3 and Helle Kiellberg Larsen3 Abstract Background: Besides being a causative agent for genital warts and cervical cancer, human papillomavirus (HPV) contributes to 40-85% of cases of anal, penile, vaginal and vulvar cancer and precancerous lesions. HPV types 16 & 18 in particular contribute to 74-93% of these cases. Overall the number of new cases of these four cancers may be relatively high implying notable health care cost to society. The aim of this study was to estimate the incidence and the health care sector costs of anal, penile, vaginal and vulvar cancer. Methods: New anogenital cancer patients were identified from the Danish National Cancer Register using ICD-10 diagnosis codes. Resource use in the health care sector was estimated for the year prior to diagnosis, and for the first, second and third years after diagnosis. Hospital resource use was defined in terms of registered hospital contacts, using DRG (Diagnosis Related Groups) and DAGS (Danish Outpatient Groups System) charges as cost estimates for inpatient and outpatient contacts, respectively. Health care consumption by cancer patients diagnosed in 2004–2007 was compared with that by an age- and sex-matched cohort without cancer. Hospital costs attributable to four anogenital cancers were estimated using regression analysis. Results: The annual incidence of anal cancer in Denmark is 1.9 per 100,000 persons. The corresponding incidence rates for penile, vaginal and vulvar cancer are 1.7, 0.9 and 3.6 per 100,000 males/females, respectively.

Abstract : Here we present a rare combination of GUTB with B/L inguinal lymphadenopathy in a 55y old male patient presented with pain right flank , fever & significant weight loss for the last 3 months. Per abdomen examination revealed non-tender vague lump in right lumber region about 5x4cm dimensions , with B/L inguinal lymphadenopathy, firm, matted . Investigations revealed low haemoglobin count, high leucocytic & ESR count , urine for AFB was positive and ultrasound revealed small right renal & psoas abscess , which on subsequent start of ATT , got resolved and patient was symptomatically improved . I. Introduction Genitourinary tuberculosis (GUTB) is the second most common form of extrapulmonary tuberculosis after lymph node involvement [1]. Most studies in peripheral LNTB have described a female preponderance, while pulmonary TB is more common in adult males [2]. In approximately 28% of patients with GUTB, the involvement is solely genital [3]. However , the combination of GUTB and LNTB is rare condition. Most textbooks mention it only briefly. This report aims to present a case of GUTB with LNTB in a single patient. II. Case Report 55y male with no comorbidities , having pain right flank & fever X 3months.

    Case Study Clinical Case Reports International Published: 15 Jun, 2020 Highlighting the Importance of Sexually Transmitted Disease Testing Upon Diagnosis of Penile Cancer: A Case Report Médina Ndoye1, Lissoune Cisse1, Mark LaGreca2, Timothy Phillips2, Mark Siden2* and Matthew Weaver2 1Department of Urology, Idrissa Pouye General Hospital, Senegal 2Department of Medicine, Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine, USA Abstract There is a well-known association between Human Papillomavirus and Human Immunodeficiency Virus with penile cancer. Yet, it is not the standard of care to screen for either of these sexually transmitted diseases upon diagnosis of primary penile cancer. We present a 50 year old male who had a confirmed diagnosis of penile cancer for 2 years prior to his presentation to our clinic in Dakar, Senegal. Outside institutions repeatedly failed to screen the patient for sexually transmitted diseases, namely HPV and HIV. We share this case to emphasize the importance of sexually transmitted disease screening upon diagnosis of penile cancer with hopes to increase awareness in both developed and developing nations. We call for consensus in sexually transmitted disease screening guidelines upon penile cancer diagnoses. Keywords: Penile cancer; HPV; HIV; STD screening Introduction Primary penile cancer is a rare malignant overgrowth of cells, typically located on the glans or the internal prepuce of the penis. It has a worldwide incidence of 1/100,000 and most commonly affects males between the ages of 50 years to 70 years. Delayed diagnosis often yields significant OPEN ACCESS morbidity and mortality [1,2]. While penile cancer is uncommon in Europe and North America, the developing world has much higher rates of incidence up to 8 cases per 100,000 in some countries *Correspondence: [3].

Risk Factors for Vaginal Cancer A risk factor is anything that affects your chance of getting a disease such as cancer. Different cancers have different risk factors. Some risk factors, like smoking, can be changed. Others, like a person’s age or family history, can’t be changed. But having a risk factor, or even many, does not mean that you will get the disease. And 1 ____________________________________________________________________________________American Cancer Society cancer.org | 1.800.227.2345 some people who get the disease may not have any known risk factors. Scientists have found that certain risk factors make a woman more likely to develop vaginal cancer. But many women with vaginal cancer don’t have any clear risk factors. And even if a woman with vaginal cancer has one or more risk factors, it’s impossible to know for sure how much that risk factor contributed to causing the cancer. Age Squamous cell cancer of the vagina occurs mainly in older women. It can happen at any age, but few cases are found in women younger than 40. Almost half of cases occur in women who are 70 years old or older.

    viruses Review A Current Update on Human Papillomavirus-Associated Head and Neck Cancers Ebenezer Tumban Department of Biological Sciences, Michigan Technological University, 1400 Townsend Dr, Houghton, MI 49931, USA; [email protected]; Tel.: +1-906-487-2256; Fax: +1-906-487-3167 Received: 16 September 2019; Accepted: 4 October 2019; Published: 9 October 2019 Abstract: Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is the cause of a growing percentage of head and neck cancers (HNC); primarily, a subset of oral squamous cell carcinoma, oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma, and laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma. The majority of HPV-associated head and neck cancers (HPV + HNC) are caused by HPV16; additionally, co-factors such as smoking and immunosuppression contribute to the progression of HPV + HNC by interfering with tumor suppressor miRNA and impairing mediators of the immune system. This review summarizes current studies on HPV + HNC, ranging from potential modes of oral transmission of HPV (sexual, self-inoculation, vertical and horizontal transmissions), discrepancy in the distribution of HPV + HNC between anatomical sites in the head and neck region, and to studies showing that HPV vaccines have the potential to protect against oral HPV infection (especially against the HPV types included in the vaccines). The review concludes with a discussion of major challenges in the field and prospects for the future: challenges in diagnosing HPV + HNC at early stages of the disease, measures to reduce discrepancy in the prevalence of HPV + HNC cases between anatomical sites, and suggestions to assess whether fomites/breast milk can transmit HPV to the oral cavity.
