Clinical, Review, Journal: Radiation-Associated Angiosarcoma That Developed in the Irradiated Residual Breast after Breast-Conserving Surgery for Breast Cancer-A Case Report and Review of the Literature (Pubmed Central) - Jul 22, 2020 RAAS is rare, but it should be considered in patients with skin lesions, such as erosion and bloody bulla, after BCS and RT for breast cancer. To our knowledge, only 12 cases of RAAS, including the present case, have been reported in Japan, and we reviewed the Japanese RAAS cases in comparison with those reported in the Western literature.

He has a history of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) complicated by hypogammaglobulinemia on intravenous immunoglobulin, localized melanoma status post excision, and left breast carcinoma status post mastectomy, radiation therapy, and adjuvant anastrazole...After six weeks of treatment with voriconazole, his fevers persisted and CT of the chest demonstrated progressive patchy ground-glass opacities and nodular consolidation...Time limited CLL specific therapy with obinutuzumab/chlorambucil was initiated...It is important to differentiate a possible "passenger effect", which is a reactive, nonspecific recruitment of inflammatory cells into the lung parenchyma. An appropriate level of suspicion and a proper diagnosis can lead to discontinuation of antimicrobial therapy and initiation of CLL directed therapy.

This review highlights the aromatase activity of natural stilbenes, chalcones, and flavanones and synthetically inspired versions thereof and draws attention to new and under-investigated areas within each class worthy of pursuit.

Our data support treatment guideline recommendations involving the new combinations of hormone therapies plus targeted therapies as first-line or second-line treatments, or in both settings, in women with hormone-receptor-positive, HER2-negative metastatic breast cancer.

This case report hopes to illustrate non-endocrinology pathologies that can mimic thyroid nodules while encouraging current healthcare practitioners to recognize the existence of these conditions so that wasteful diagnostic tests or invasive procedures can be avoided.

All patients were treated with one or more of the following agents: tamoxifen, medroxyprogesterone acetate, aromatase inhibitors (anastrozole or letrozole) and anti-androgens (cyproterone), and, in cases with secondary gonadotropic axis activation, depot GnRHa was used...Tamoxifen plus medroxyprogesterone, or cyproterone, or leuprorelin were used (each one) as the first choice in 1 patient (7.6%)...Despite a reasonable number of treatment options for peripheral PP in MAS, none of them showed proven effective results in stopping vaginal bleeding, reduce pubertal progression and preserving potential genetic adult height. Therefore, due to the extremely heterogeneous nature of PPP of MAS, the clinical treatment remains a challenge.
