The aim of the investigation. To study concordance of surrogate molecular subtype in the pairs of primary and synchronous axillary metastases in patients with invasive breast cancer (IBC). Materials and methods. Retrospective analysis included 80 patients aged 28 to 90 years (average age 40.35.3 years) with a first-time diagnosed IBC who underwent surgical treatment at the N.N. Blokhin National Medical Research Center of Oncology during 20162018 years. None of the patients received any neoadjuvant drug therapy. The pathological evaluation of the estrogen receptors (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), HER2 expression and estimation of proliferative activity (Ki-67 index) with subsequent assignment to surrogate subtypes were performed according to ASCO/CAP protocols and the recommendations of the 20132019 San-Gallen Conference on treatment of Early Breast Cancer. Results. Preliminary results of our study revealed therapeutically significant changes in hormone receptor status, HER2-status and proliferative activity in 12.5% of cases of Luminal A type IBC, 20% of Luminal B/HER2-positive and 4% of Luminal B/Her2-negative subtypes of IBC.
Currently, neuroendocrine neoplasms (NENs) of the gastroenteropancreat-ic and bronchopulmonary systems are well studied and the most common, the share of which is 73 and 25 % of cases, respectively. The remaining 2 % of cases are attributed to NEN of more rare localizations, the static registration of which is difficult due to their rarity, and clinical cases are presented by episodic descriptions of single observations. Such tumors include NEN of the prostate gland from 0.5 to 1.0 %, NEN of ovaries 0.5 %, NEN of the mammary gland from 0.3 to 0.5 %, NEN of the kidney (practically devoid of static data), bladder 0.48-1.00 %. The retrospective study included 92 patients with NEN of rare localizations who were examined and treated of the N. N. Blochin National Medical Research Center of Oncology from 1990 to 2019. Currently, there are no generally accepted methods of treatment for this group of patients due to the rarity of the pathology, and it is carried out according to the NEN of other localizations. NEN of rare localizations have high survival rates (the observation period was from a month to 14 years), both general and without progression and require long-term monitoring and observation. At the time of assessment of long-term results, 20 (21.8 %) patients died of progression, 12 (13.1 %) patients dropped out of observation. The rest were alive at the date of the last control.
Phyllodes tumor of the prostate is a rare neoplasm with poorly understood pathogenesis. Histologically, it resembles phyllodes tumor of the breast with hyperplastic epithelium lined cysts and channels embedded in a variably cellular stroma. A variety of terms have been used to describe these lesions, including phyllodes type of atypical hyperplasia, cystosarcoma phyllodes. The malignant potential of this tumor is unclear and has resulted in confusion in terms of prognosis and treatment.
Primary parotid lymphoma is a rare disease, that accounts for 7,7 % of all parotid neoplasms, 5 % of all extranodal lymphomas. In our investigation 44 patients with primary lymphoma of parotid gland were observed: 19 (43 %) patients received polychemotherapy by antracyclins ± mabThera; 16 (36 %) patients were treated by radiochemotherapy. Early appearing recurrence was in 4 (18 %) cases with dissemination in 2 cases. Late recurrence in 18 (82 %) with dissemination in 17 cases.
