“…In one case from this group pronounced stasis was found in the lumen of blood vessels on the border of the sub-mucous and muscular membranes which is a sign of certain circulatory disorders. In single cases considerable diffuse lymphoid-cellular infiltration was found in the form of lymphoid follicles of big sizes in the sub-mucous layer of the intestinal wall (Ando et al, 2006).…”

The efficacy of sanitization of the abdominal cavity with ozonized physiological solution under conditions of simulating experimental peritonitis has been examined. By the results of histological examination of the small and large intestinal walls reduced inflammatory process and destruction of the muscular layer in the form of focal moderately pronounced inflammatory infiltration were found. Condition of APUD system was estimated by the amount of APUD (amine precursor uptake and decarboxylation)-cells, found practically in all the glands. An average number of APUD-cells (142+20,4) was close to the control one (326+16,8), which is indicative of an increased functional activity of apudocytes under conditions of introduction of ozonized physiological solution.

“…Neuroendocrine tumors in the breast are rare, accounting for less than 0.1% of all breast cancers and less than 1% of all neuroendocrine tumors. 1 According to the World Health Organization (WHO) classifi cation of tumors, neuroendocrine tumor in the breast is a category that includes solid neuroendocrine carcinoma, small cell/ oat cell carcinoma, and large-cell neuroendocrine carcinoma. 2 We present a case of a neuroendocrine tumor (solid neuroendocrine carcinoma) in the breast and discuss the clinical, radiological, and pathological manifestations.…”

Neuroendocrine tumor in the breast

et al. 2008

A 34-year-old woman with a past history of a carcinoid tumor in the right ovary presented with a right breast mass found on contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) of the chest. She was asymptomatic, and her blood tests were normal. The mass measured about 2 cm. Mammography showed a lobular, circumscribed, high-density mass without microcalcifications in the upper outer quadrant of the right breast. Ultrasonography showed an irregular mass with both hypoechoic and hyperechoic components with increased vascularity. The mass was well enhanced on contrast-enhanced CT and dynamic magnetic resonance imaging. At the same time, a well-enhanced small nodule was detected in the pouch of Douglas. Both of the tumors were resected, and a primary breast neuroendocrine tumor (solid neuroendocrine carcinoma) and peritoneal dissemination of the ovarian carcinoid tumor were diagnosed.
