Pancreatic hemangioma manifesting as variceal gastroesophageal bleeding during pregnancy: case report

There are only 10 reported cases of pancreatic hemangiomas in adults, only one of them causing digestive bleeding. We present a case of variceal bleeding and portal hypertension caused by a pancreatic hemangioma. The patient had 19 year-old and was received at her 16th week of pregnancy. She had massive hematemesis, controlled after variceal band ligation. Her image exams revealed a cystic lesion of 164 cm³ in the pancreas tail and signs of portal hypertension. Two months after, the ultrassonographic exam documented the lesion growth, achieving 200 cm³ at that time. The patient was submitted to distal pancreatectomy, and the histopathological analysis revealed a pancreatic hemangioma of 11 x 9 x 8 cm. Therefore, we report the second case of digestive bleeding caused by a pancreatic hemangioma, which had a well documented growth during the pregnancy. Additionally, we review the previous reports of pancreatic hemangiomas and discuss the hypothesis of hormonal infl uence on the natural history of these tumors.

Carcinoma mamário em égua: acahados clínicos e histopatológicos

Uma égua da raça Quarto-de-Milha, doadora de embriões, de vinte e três anos de idade foi atendida no Departamento de Reprodução Animal e Radiologia Veterinária da FMVZ – UNESP – Botucatu, apresentando uma massa ulcerada, de consistência firme, drenando secreção serosanguinolenta, medindo 15cm x 16cm x 14,8cm na mama direita. O exame citológico foi inconclusivo devido à baixa celularidade e predomínio de células inflamatórias. Foi realizada mastectomia unilateral e exame histopatológico e técnicas específicas que revelaram um carcinoma mamário túbulo-papilífero, com extensivo acometimento intralobular e intraductal, estroma abundante e infiltrado inflamatório polimorfonuclear acentuado e difuso. Este trabalho tem como objetivo relatar os achados clínico e histopatológicos de um caso de carcinoma mamário túbulo-papilífero em uma égua, e afirmar a importância do exame citológico e histopatológico no diagnóstico diferencial de processos inflamatórios e neoplasias.

Detecção imunoistoquímica de receptores de estrógeno e progesterona no endométrio de vacas Nelore (Bos taurus indicus) durante o anestro pós-parto

Twenty-four postpartum anestrous Nelore purebred cows were used in the study. Anestrous was determined based on the reproductive history which was confirmed in each cow based on plasma progesterone concentration and by transrectal ultrasonography. Endometrial biopsies were collected. The animals were separated into two groups according to maximum follicular diameter- Group 1: follicles <6mm (n=12) and Group 2: follicles >-6mm follicles (n=12). The immunohistochemistry technique was employed to evaluate the presence of estrogen and progesterone receptors in the uterine glandular epithelium and stroma. High counts of positive nuclei and high intensity of immunostain for estrogen and progesterone receptors in the glandular epithelium and stroma were observed in the two groups. However, the immunostain intensity of progesterone receptors in the glandular epithelium was higher in Group 2 compared to Group 1. When glandular epithelium and stroma were compared within each group, the relative number of estrogen receptors in the Group 1 was higher in the glandular epithelium compared to stroma and the immunostain intensity for the progesterone receptor in Group 2 was higher in the glandular epithelium compared to stroma. The results suggest that the mechanisms that control the expression of endomerial receptors in the anestrus are similar to the ones observed during the estrus cycle.
