13. Combination of Ovarian Endometrioid Carcinoma and Yolk Sac Tumor in Postmenopausal Women : a Case Report

Author

Taranto, Patrícia, Gon Ribeiro, S., and Alkalay, H. Helber

Abstract

Objective: Little is known about Ovarian Yolk Sac Tumors (YSTs) in postmenopausal female. To enhance scientific knowledge about this tumor, we describe a 64 years old woman with YSTs coexisting with ovarian epithelial tumor, focusing on diagnosis and treatment. Method: Literature review and medical record.Case Report: We describe a 64-year-old postmenopausal female, with an ovarian endometrioid carcinoma (FIGO IA/G3). The patient was started on adjuvant chemotherapy with 6 cycles of carboplatin and paclitaxel. After adjuvant chemotherapy, her scans reveled progressive disease in the liver which biopsy showed poor differentiated epithelioid neoplasia positive for SALL4, indicating a YSTs. We started on chemotherapy with BEP with 3 cycles, with decrease of tumor markers. However, despite initial clinical and laboratorial improvement, patient progressed to death in July. Conclusion:YSTs represent approximately 20% of all malignant germ cell tumors of the ovary and typically occur in young women1 Germinal cell neoplasm arise from an ovarian epithelial neoplasm is an extremely rare presentation in postmenopausal woman, with aggressive behavior2. The recognition of specific subtype is essential to determine treatment decisions and prognosis.

Author

Abstract

Known since the 19th century, neuromyelitis optica (NMO), or Devic's disease, is an idiopathic immune-mediated inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system selectively affecting the optic nerve and spinal cord. Commonly diagnosed in demyelinating diseases reference centers, we report an 18-year-old female patient who sought medical attention with a 3-month history of weight loss, headache, and vomiting, followed by diplopia, a burning sensation over the lower limbs, and difficulty walking. A few days prior to hospital admission, the muscle strength in her lower limbs became worse and ascended to the upper limbs associated with sensory changes in the trunk and voiding dysfunction. At admission, the neurological examination was consistent with a spinal cord syndrome. After few days of hospitalization, she was tetraplegic with severe signs of brainstem involvement requiring mechanical ventilatory support. Intravenous methylprednisolone and cyclophosphamide were promptly started after ruling out the diagnosis of infectious disease and cord compression. Due to no substantial early improvement, intravenous immunoglobulin was also used. From then on, the neurological status gradually improved. Magnetic resonance imaging showed extensive demyelinating features in the spinal cord, and the serum IgG autoantibody was negative. The patient was referred to a tertiary neurological reference center where she remains under treatment., Competing Interests: Conflict of interest: None

Abstract

Objectives: Evaluate patients with breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy with respect to their epidemiologic and clinical variables as well as performance at work or at home., Methods: this was a cross-sectional study including 52 women interviewed during breast cancer chemotherapy, stratified in two groups: those who continued to work and do household tasks, and did not continue to work or do household tasks. Patients were from two public hospitals in the State of São Paulo, one in Santo Andre and the other in São Bernardo do Campo. The WPAI - GH (Work Productivity and Activity Impairment) questionnaire was used to evaluate work and household performance of professionals or housewives, respectively., Results: Mean age of the patients was 55.7 (SD=13.8), most were Caucasian (88.5%), married (55.8%), employed (65.3%) and the majority had to stop working because of treatment (51.0%), at more advanced stage (p<0.05), fatigue and nausea (p<0.05). Mean WPAI - GH was 67.04 (|SD = 5.62) for patients who stopped working and 49.17 (SD = 6.89) for those who continued to work (Mann-Whitney U test: p = 0.04)., Conclusion: Chemotherapy leads to a decrease in performance of a sizable fraction of women with breast cancer undergoing chemotherapy. A more advanced stage of neoplasia was positively associated with withdrawal from these activities probably due to side effects such as fatigue and nausea.
