multiple myeloma mimicking pituitary adenoma. | a case of multiple myeloma which presented as a solitary intrasellar tumor is reported. the initial radiographic and light microscopic findings were interpreted as being consistent with pituitary adenoma. subsequently, when systemic disease developed and a bone marrow biopsy demonstrated multiple myeloma, the histopathologic diagnosis of the sellar lesion was established retrospectively. | 2013 | 3791987 |
high plasma levels of protein c activity and antigen in the nephrotic syndrome. | low plasma levels of antithrombin iii due to excessive urinary loss are thought to be the cause of thrombotic complications in patients with the nephrotic syndrome. to see whether protein c (pc), another antithrombotic protein, is also reduced in plasma by the same mechanism, plasma and urinary protein c were determined in 24 patients with nephrotic syndrome and no thrombotic complication, and compared to plasma and urinary antithrombin iii. twenty patients (83%) had high plasma levels of protei ... | 2013 | 3754658 |
presentation of an unrecognized lymphoma as esophageal tumor. | malignant lymphomas rarely cause symptomatic esophageal involvement. we describe a patient presenting with the typical clinical and radiological features of an esophageal tumor. endoscopic findings suggested a malignant tumor different from a carcinoma. histology and cytology of biopsies revealed a highly malignant non-hodgkin's lymphoma (nhl). interestingly, further staging procedures revealed a well-differentiated stage iv nhl. thus, the esophageal tumor must be interpreted as a de-differentia ... | 2013 | 3754207 |
prediction of long-term outcome in schizophrenia by prognostic scales. | the predictive validity of four prognostic scales described in the literature (gittelman-klein scale, goldstein scale, phillips scale, strauss-carpenter scale) and of four newly developed prognostic scores was tested in two long-term followup studies on schizophrenic patients. among the prognostic scales of the literature, the strauss-carpenter scale showed the best results; it reached a level that was attained by only three of the newly developed scales. the three other scales of the literature ... | 2013 | 3715416 |
