Primary carcinosarcoma of the helix of the ear.

We report our histologic and immunohistochemical findings in a rare case of cutaneous carcinosarcoma involving the helix of the ear. The tumor exhibited cellular features of both basal cell and squamous cell carcinoma and a malignant mesenchymal component that was consistent with malignant fibrous histiocytoma. The epithelial component exhibited a positive immunohistochemical reaction to cytokeratin and a negative reaction to vimentin, whereas the mesenchymal component showed a positive immunohistochemical reaction to vimentin and a negative reaction to cytokeratin. To the best of our knowledge, this is only the third reported case of a carcinosarcoma of the ear and the second case in which it developed on the helix.

[A case of bilateral kidney tumor combined with staghorn calculi and skin cancer].

A rare case of bilateral renal tumor with benign clinical evolution, associated with staghorn calculosis and skin cancer, is reported. Delayed operative treatment was due to difficulties in establishing the diagnosis, controversial results of the sonographic and X-ray examination and lack of cooperation by the patients. The right kidney and regional lymph nodes were removed; metastases were verified on histologic examination of the lymph nodes. After the operation the patient received complex radio-, chemo- and hormonal therapy. Basocellular skin cancer which later developed was cured by contact radiotherapy.

Sebaceous epithelioma in the external auditory meatus: a case report.

We report a rare case of sebaceous epithelioma(SE) in the external auditory meatus of an 84-year-old woman. The tumor, measuring 1.5 cm in diameter, was hemispherical, yellowish-brown, elastic and hard. It was removed surgically without complications and there has been no recurrence two years postoperatively. The histopathologic findings were characteristic of a sebaceous epithelioma. The controversy over the origin of this tumor is discussed.

[Pre-auricular sclerodermiform basocellular carcinoma extending to the temporomandibular joint. Presentation of a case].

Morphea form basal-cell epitheliomas of the external ear are rare often poorly delineated clinically, present a high rate of recurrence caused by inadequate treatment, deeply invasive and destructive lesions, development over embryonic fusion plane and other anatomical particularity of the external ear. For tumor superior to 2 cm or recurrent lesion conventional excisions are very multilating on this part of face with a 10 to 15% of recurrent rates. The micrographic surgery with total microscopic control of excision described by Mohs which was not disponible for this case seems to be the treatment of choice for morphea form basal-cell carcinoma.

[Extensive recurrent basalioma of the pinna with infiltration of the temporal bone--radical surgical removal of the tumor and primary defect repair (a case report)].

Report on a woman patient, 69 years of age, suffering from a recurrent extensive basalioma of the external ear that was considered inoperable, as the tumour had invaded the petrous bone, the parotid gland, the mandibular joint, and the adjacent nerves. Because of unbearable pain it was decided to perform a radical operation with resection of the tumour, the petrous bone, the parotid gland, the ascending mandibular branch, the facial nerve, and part of the oral mucous membrane. The exposed large cervical vessels, dura mater, and the bony skull--of which the periosteum had to be removed--were primarily covered with a large pectoral muscle island flap and an occipital advanced flap. Twenty-four months after surgery the patient had no relapse and was free from pain.

[Maxillofacial manifestations of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome].

46 cases of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome permit the authors to detail the particular aspects of the oral and facial lesions in AIDS. In patients at risk, a lymphadenopathic syndrome is thought to represent a prodromic phase of the illness. The authors insist upon the differences between the classic Kaposi's sarcoma and that associated with the AIDS (mean age and initial sites of tumor). One third of these sarcomas is completed by a digestive candidiasis. The review of the literature reveals squamous cell carcinoma and Burkitt's lymphoma with the AIDS. We must be aware of early diagnosis and transmission factors in the individuals at risk with tumors and opportunistic infection.
