  • Small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the uterine cervix is a distinct subtype of cervical cancer that appears analogous to oat cell carcinoma and carcinoid tumors of the lung. It has been assumed to be derived from the neural crest via argyrophilic cells in the normal endocervix. We have recently encountered a case of small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the uterine cervix coexisting with adenocarcinoma which was argyrophil negative. A 66-year-old multiparous woman was admitted because of vaginal bleeding for 2 months. Cervicovaginal smear revealed several scattered clusters and sheets of monotonous small cells with some peripheral palisading in the background of hemorrhage and necrosis. Radical hysterectomy specimen revealed an ulcerofungating tumor on endocervical canal which was composed of two components. Major component of the tumor was made up of monomorphic population of small oval-shaped tumor cells arranged in sheets and partly in acinar structures or trabecular fashion. Other component was adenocarcinoma, endocervical well-differentiated type. Argyrophilia was present on the Grimelius stain and immunohistochemical studies revealed diffuse positivity to neuron-specific enolase and carcinoembryonic antigen. Electron microscopic examination showed clusters of small round to oval cells, which had a few well-formed desmosomes and several membrane-bound, dense-core neurosectetory granules.

  • A composite glandular/exocrine-endocrine carcinoma of the gastrointestinal tract is characterized by the co-existence of two adjacent, but histologically-distinct tumors in an organ. Composite glandular/exocrine-endocrine carcinomas are a special type of tumor comprised of common adenocarcinomas and neuroendocrine components that account for at least one-third of the entire tumor area. Composite tumors have been reported in a range of organs, but are relatively rare in the stomach. We report a case of a composite neuroendocrine carcinoma with an adenocarcinoma of the stomach (mixed exocrine-endocrine carcinoma), which was misdiagnosed as a giant submucosal tumor preoperatively based on esophagogastroduodenoscopy and a contrast-enhanced axial computed tomographic scan.

  • We report a rare case of the coexistence of a gastric small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma with a gastric adenocarcinoma. A 62-year-old man presented with epigastric soreness for 1 month. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy revealed a Borrmann type I tumor at the lesser curvature of the lower body of the stomach. The patient underwent a distal gastrectomy with D2 lymph node dissection and the resected specimen exhibited a $3.5{\times}3.5$ cm sized, fungating lesion. Two separated, not intermingling, lesions with non-adenocarcinoma components encircled by well differentiated adenocarcinoma components were identified microscopically. The non-adenocarcinoma component showed neuroendocrine features, such as a solid and trabecular pattern, and the tumor cells showed a high nuclear grade with minimal cytoplasm, indistinct nucleoli, and positive response for synaptophysin, CD56. The final pathological diagnosis was a gastric mixed exocrine-endocrine carcinoma (MEEC) composed of an adenocarcinoma and small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the collision type.

  • Metastasis of lung cancer to the skin is uncommon, presenting in 0.22% to 12% of lung cancer patients, and it is extremely rare for skin metastasis to be the first clinical manifestation of lung cancer. In the few cases where skin metastasis has been reported as the first sign of lung cancer, the patients were typically heavy smokers or had preexisting respiratory diseases and symptoms. This prompted clinicians to consider skin metastasis of a pulmonary malignancy. Large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma (LCNEC) is a rare type of lung cancer that accounts for approximately 3% of lung cancers. LCNEC mainly metastasizes to visceral organs, such as the liver, bone, and brain, and it only shows metastasis to the skin in very rare cases. Herein, we report an unusual case of a metastatic skin lesion as the first sign of primary pulmonary LCNEC, in a 63-year-old woman with no pulmonary symptoms or personal history of smoking or pulmonary disease.

  • Aim: This study aims to investigate the manifestation of CT, MRI and dynamic enhanced scans for primary hepatic neuroendocrine cell carcinoma. Methods: CT or MRI arterial and venous phase scan images of 19 cases of pathologically confirmed PHNEC were retrospectively analyzed. Results: 14 cases (73.68%) with single lesion, 5 cases (26.3%) with multiple lesions, with an average diameter of 13.2 cm. Some 12 cases (63.16%) showed inhomogeneous enhancement, seven cases (36.8%) showed homogeneous enhancement, 13 cases (68.4%) demonstrated significant enhancement in the arterial phase, 13 cases (68.4%) had significantly enhanced portal venous phase including 7 cases (36.8 %) with portal venous phase density or signal above the arterial phase and 5 cases (26.3%) with the portal vein density or signal below the arterial phase. Seven cases (36.8%) had continued strengthened separate shadows in the center of the lesion. Thrombosis were not seen in portal veins. Conclusion: CT and MRI images of liver cell neuroendocrine carcinoma have certain characteristics that can provide valuable information for diagnosis and differential diagnosis.

  • 목적 : 자궁경부 소세포암종으로 진단되어 방사선치료를 받은 환자에서 조직병리학적인 재검사를 시행하여 조직병리학적 특성을 알아보고, 환자 및 종양의 특징, 방사선치료 후의 치료 성적등을 조직병리학적 유형에 따라 후향적으로 비교 분석해 보았다. 대상 및 방법 : 1981년 10월부터 1995년 4월까지 연세의대 연세암센터 치료방사선과에서 자궁경부암으로 방사선치료를 받은 환자 총 2890명 중 조직학적 유형이 소세포암종이었던 환자는 60명으로 $2.08\%$였다. 타병원예서 조직검사 및 병기 결정 후 방사선치료 만을 위해 전과되었던 36예에서는 자궁경부 생검 조직을 확보할 수 없었고, 이들을 제외한 24명에서 조직에 대한 병리학적 재검사가 가능하여 H&E 염색 및 신경내분비 표지인 neuron-specific enolase(NSE), chromogranin, synaptophysin, Grimelius 면역조직화학 염색을 시행하였다. 이들 24예의 환자 및 종양좌 특성, 방사선치료에 대한 반응, 치료 실패 양상, 5년 생존율 및 5년 무병 생존율 등을 후향적으로 분석하였다. 결과 : H&E 염색 및 4가지 neuroendocrine marker 검사 후 13예는 신경내분비암종으로 진단되었고 11예는 소세포 유형의 편평상피암종으로 진단되어 병리학적으로 크게 2가지 군으로 분류하였다. 신경내분비암종으로 분류된 13예 중 5예는 중등도 이상으로 분화가 좋은 편아었으나 8예는 분화가 나쁘거나 미분화되었다. 전체 24예 대상 환자들의 연령은 23-79세로 중앙 연령치 54세였으며 FIGO 병기 분포는 Ib 8예$(33.3\%)$, IIa 1예$(4.2\%)$, IIb 11예$(45.8\%)$, IIIa 2예$(8.3\%)$, IIIb 1예$(4.2\%)$, IV 1예$(4.2\%)$로 병기 I-II가 20예로 대다수를 차지하였다. 골반 림프절에 전이가 있었던 환자가 5예(20.8%) 있었는데 이 중 3예는 수술후 조직학적으로 확인되었고(2예는 근치적 수술, 1예는 골반 림프절 생검) 다른 2예는 전산화 단층 촬영상 골반 림프절이 커져 있어 전이로 판단되었다. 이들 2가지 병리학적 분류군에 따라 환자 및 종양의 특성을 비교해 보았는데 특별한 차이는 발견할 수 없었으며, 방사선치료에 대한 반응, 치료 실패 양상, 5년 생존율 및 5년 무병 생존율 등의 치료 결과를 비교해 보았을 때 치료 실패 양상에 있어서 소세포형의 편평상피암종에서는 원격 전이가 2예$(18.2\%)$인데 반해 신경내분비암종에서는 6예$(46.2\%)$로 신경내분비암종(neuroendocrine carcinoma)에서 원격 전이율이 높았으나 환자 수가 적어 통계학적인 유의성은 없었다(P>0.05). 결론: 병리조직학적 재검사가 가능하였던 24예의 자궁경부 소세포암종 환자 중 13예가 신경 내분비암종으로 진단되었으며 나머지 11예는 소세포형의 편평상피암종으로 분류되었는데 환자 및 종양의 특징, 방사선치료 성적을 비교해 볼 때 신경내분비암종에서 원격 전이가 호발하였으나 $(46.2\%\;vs.\;18,2\%)$, 5년 생존율과 5년 무병 생존율의 차이는 없었다. 이런 결과로 자궁경부에서 발생한 소세포암종 중 신경내분비암종의 경우는 원격 전이가 맡으므로 방사선치료, 수술 등의 국소 치료와 더불어 적절한 항암화학요법을 추가하여 치료 결과를 증진시킬 수 있으리라 생각한다.

  • Background: Primary hepatic neuroendocrine carcinoma (PHNEC) is rarer than extrahepatic gastrointestinal neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC). It is difficult to make a correct diagnosis and poses a challenge for management. Materials and Methods: Ten PHNEC patients were admitted to our hospital from June 2006 to June 2011. Laboratory tests and imaging scans were performed for diagnosis and exclusion of extrahepatic NEC. All patients were AFP - and CA199-. Seven patients had solid tumors with cystic changes on ultrasonography, CT and/or MRI. For the initial treatment, four patients received combined-therapy and six monotherapy. Considering overall treatment, six patients received combined-therapy and four patients monotherapy. Staging criteria of primary hepatocellular carcinoma (PHC, AJCC 7th edition) were used to differentiate the stage of all patients: 3 patients were stage I, 2 stageII, 4 patients stageIII and 1 stageIV. All patients were followed up and clinical data were gathered. Results: The median follow-up duration was 38.5 months. The 1-year, 2-year, 3-year and 6-year disease-free survival was 80.0%, 46.2% and 46.2% and 0% respectively. The overall survival rates were 100%, 67.1%, 67.1% and 33.6% respectively. Patients in early-stages (I/II) had similar disease-free and overall survival as those in advanced-stages (III/IV). Patients with monotherapy had significant shorter disease-free and overall survival than the patients with combination-therapy. Conclusions: PHNEC has a unique specificity during its occurrence and development. The staging criteria of PHC might not be suitable for the PHENT. More convenient and effective features need to be found in imaging and laboratory detection. Surgical resection, TACE, chemotherapy and radiofrequency ablation should be performed in combination and actively for patients with PHNEC or recurrence to get the best effectiveness; they might extend the disease-free and overall survival.
