RESUMO

Oral cavity metastatic tumors derived from primary tumors from other corporal regions are rare, representing barely 1 % of all malignant tumors. Differential diagnosis of these lesions is challenging due to the wide spectrum of lesions with similar clinical presentation and especially when the presence of a primary tumor goes undetected. We present the case of a 55-year-old male with a painless tumor in the anterior maxillary region, vestibular gingiva and palate, with a 2-month evolution. Anatomopathological diagnosis was malignant clear cell tumor, highly suggestive of clear cell renal carcinoma metastasis, and the oral lesion constituted the first sign of illness.


Los tumores metastásicos de cavidad oral derivados de tumores primarios de otras regiones corporales son raros, representando apenas el 1 % de todos los tumores malignos. El diagnóstico diferencial de estas lesiones es desafiante debido al amplio espectro de lesiones con presentación clínica similar y especialmente cuando la presencia de un tumor primario pasa desapercibida. Presentamos el caso de un varón de 55 años con una tumoración indolora en región maxilar anterior, encía vestibular y paladar, de 2 meses de evolución. El diagnóstico anatomopatológico fue de tumor maligno de células claras, altamente sugestivo de metástasis de carcinoma renal de células claras, y la lesión bucal constituyó el primer signo de enfermedad.

RESUMO

El cistoadenoma es un tumor epitelial benigno de baja frecuencia en glándulas salivales, que habitualmente se presenta como una masa de crecimiento lento. En glándulas salivales menores se localiza habitualmente en labio, paladar y mucosa yugal, cuyo diagnóstico diferencial representa un desafío desde el punto de vista clínico. El propósito de este reporte es presentar 2 casos de cistoadenoma en paladar, con énfasis en sus características clínicas y diagnóstico diferencial.


Cystadenoma is an uncommon benign epithelial tumor of the salivary glands, which usually appears as a slow-growing mass. In minor salivary glands, it is usually located in the lip, palate and buccal mucosa, whose differential diagnosis is a clinical challenge. The purpose of this report is to present 2 cases of palate cystadenoma, with emphasis on their clinical characteristics and differential diagnosis.

RESUMO

RESUMEN: El tumor odontogénico adenomatoide es un tumor benigno, poco común, que corresponde al 2-7% de los tumores odontogénicos. Se presenta con mayor prevalencia en la segunda década de vida y se ubica preferentemente en maxilar anterior. Es una lesión encapsulada, no agresiva, de crecimiento lento, que puede pasar desapercibida durante años. Deriva del epitelio odontogénico, y se caracteriza histológicamente por células epiteliales dispuestas en nidos, remolinos o cordones con escaso tejido conjuntivo. Puede presentar estructuras canaliculares un patrón ductiforme, con calcificaciones y presenta cápsula. El presente estudio reporta dos casos, el primero es una mujer de 30 años y el segundo el de un hombre de 36 años, ambos con un tumor odontogénico adenomatoide ubicado en zona maxilar anterior derecha, asintomático, sin asociación con diente incluido y de presentación quística a nivel imagenológico e histopatológico. Se discuten características clínicas, radiográficas, histopatológicas y terapéuticas de los casos.


ABSTRACT: Adenomatoid odontogenic tumor is a benign, rare tumor that accounts for 2-7% of odontogenic tumors. It appears with greater prevalence in the second decade of life and is located preferentially in the anterior maxilla. It is a slow-growing, non-aggressive, encapsulated lesion that can go unnoticed for years. It is derived from the odontogenic epithelium, and is characterized histologically by epithelial cells arranged in nests, eddies, or cords with little connective tissue. It may have canalicular structures and a ductiform pattern, with calcifications and it has a capsule. The present study reports two cases, the first is a 30-year-old woman and the second is a 36-year-old man, both with an adenomatoid odontogenic tumor located in the right anterior maxillary area, asymptomatic, without association with an included tooth and cystic presentation at the imaging and histopathological levels. The clinical, radiographic, histopathological and therapeutic characteristics of the cases are discussed.

RESUMO

Gastric cancer (GC) is the fifth most prevalent type of cancer worldwide. Gastric tumor cells express MICA protein, a ligand to NKG2D receptor that triggers natural killer (NK) cells effector functions for early tumor elimination. MICA gene is highly polymorphic, thus originating alleles that encode protein variants with a controversial role in cancer. The main goal of this work was to study MICA gene polymorphisms and their relationship with the susceptibility and prognosis of GC. Fifty patients with GC and 50 healthy volunteers were included in this study. MICA alleles were identified using Sanger sequencing methods. The analysis of MICA gene sequence revealed 13 MICA sequences and 5 MICA-short tandem repeats (STR) alleles in the studied cohorts We identified MICA*002 (*A9) as the most frequent allele in both, patients and controls, followed by MICA*008 allele (*A5.1). MICA*009/049 allele was significantly associated with increased risk of GC (OR: 5.11 [95% CI: 1.39-18.74], p = 0.014). The analysis of MICA-STR alleles revealed a higher frequency of MICA*A5 in healthy individuals than GC patients (OR = 0.34 [95% CI: 0.12-0.98], p = 0.046). Survival analysis after gastrectomy showed that patients with MICA*002/002 or MICA*002/004 alleles had significantly higher survival rates than those patients bearing MICA*002/008 (p = 0.014) or MICA*002/009 (MICA*002/049) alleles (p = 0.040). The presence of threonine in the position MICA-181 (MICA*009/049 allele) was more frequent in GC patients than controls (p = 0.023). Molecular analysis of MICA-181 showed that the presence of threonine provides greater mobility to the protein than arginine in the same position (MICA*004), which could explain, at least in part, some immune evasion mechanisms developed by the tumor. In conclusion, our findings suggest that the study of MICA alleles is crucial to search for new therapeutic approaches and may be useful for the evaluation of risk and prognosis of GC and personalized therapy.

RESUMO

La enfermedad de Rosai-Dorfman es una enfermedad benigna, poco frecuente, de etiología desconocida, reconocida ampliamente como una histiocitosis sinusal con linfadenopatía masiva. Afecta principalmente a niños y adultos jóvenes de descendencia africana y, si bien, su tratamiento no es claro el pronóstico suele ser favorable. Presentamos una manifestación clínica rara e inusual de tumor maxilar derecho unilateral en una mujer de 59 años diagnosticada con enfermedad de Rosai-Dorfman luego de un riguroso estudio clínico, imagenológico, histológico e inmunohistoquímico. El tratamiento con corticoides sistémicos y radioterapia resultó ser exitoso en este caso, sin embargo, se requieren más estudios para comprobar su efectividad para el tratamiento de esta enfermedad.


Rosai-Dorfman is a rare benign disease of unknown etiology, recognized as sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy. It mainly affects children and young adults of African descent and although its treatment is not clear, the prognosis is usually favorable. We present a rare and unusual clinical manifestation of a unilateral right maxillary tumor in a 59-year-old woman diagnosed with Rosai-Dorfman disease after a rigorous clinical, imaging, and histological study. The treatment with systemic corticosteroids and radiotherapy for this unusual clinical manifestation turned out to be successful in this case, however, more studies are required to verify its effectiveness.
