Secondary Pancreatic Involvement of Mycosis fungoides Detected by a Clinically Palpable Mass

et al. 1994

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

A patient with a 4-year history of mycosis fungoides, who presented a pancreatic spreading of the disease, detected by a clinically palpable mass, is reported and discussed with a review of the literature. Mycosis fungoides (MF) is a T cell lymphoma primarily localized to the skin. Laparoscopic staging and autopsy studies, however, have shown that lymph node involvement or visceral spreading is common in the course of the disease [1–3]. Among visceral manifestations of MF, pancreas infiltration is found in 20–40% of autopsied cases [1, 2, 4]. Occurrence of a palpable pancreatic mass has never been described. We report a patient with a long-standing MF, and a secondary pancreatic extension detected by a palpable mass.

“…Such a large tumor without encasement of the supe rior mesenteric artery seems to be quite suggestive of lym phoma [9]. Moreover, the common bile duct dilatation found on CT scan several months before the mass appeared suggests microscopical pancreatic spreading was already present.…”

Primary Pancreatic Lymphoma: Clinicopathological Analysis of 19 Cases from Japan and Review of the Literature

et al. 2001

Primary pancreatic lymphoma (PL) is an extremely rare disease, and large-scale studies are rarely performed even in Western countries, in which all cases of PL reported to date were of the B-cell type. Little information regarding PL is available in Japan. Nineteen cases of PL were collected through a nationwide study in Japan, and paraffin-embedded specimens were processed for staining with hematoxylin and eosin and by immunohistochemical procedures. Clinicopathological findings were reviewed and compared with those reported in Western countries. The patient population consisted of 13 men and 6 women, ranging in age from 46 to 84 (average 62) years. Abdominal pain was the most common presenting symptom. Tumors were located in the pancreatic head (12 cases), tail (4 cases) and body (2 cases), and ranged in size from 4 to 17 cm. Clinical stage was I_E in 9 cases and II_E in 10. Radical resection was performed in 10 cases and bypass operation in 1, followed by chemotherapy in 8. Immunophenotypically, 15 cases were B-cell and 4 were T-cell lymphomas. Seventy-three percent of B-cell tumors were diffuse large B-cell lymphomas. The 1-year actuarial survival rate for B-cell lymphomas (51.9%) was better than that of T-cell lymphomas (0%). However, in Japan the incidence of T-cell PLs was higher, and, partly as a consequence of this, prognosis was poorer than in Western countries.

“…The simplest method was to apply a high voltage pulse (20~30V) to induce the bend state formation [11][12]. In chiral doping LC system, chiral molecules were utilized to stabilize a 180° twist configuration to eliminate the required bend nucleation [13][14][15]. Other methods can be categorized into chiral and non-chiral doped LC systems.…”

It is well known that a Pi-cell must be operated in bend state transited from splay state. Before starting state transition, the nucleation must be happened uniformly to whole active area in a Pi-cell. In this study, Nanostructure Enhanced Pi-cell (NE-Pi-cell) was proposed. Not only the random distribution of silicon oxide nano-particles was investigated for decreasing the transition time, but also the limitation of increasing nano-particle density was also studied well. The reduction rates of splay-to-bend and twist-to-splay transition time were over 99.9% with nanostructure surfaces. However, the response time and V-T curve remained the same as un-treated Pi-cell.
