Specificities of Ophthalmic Tumors: Usefulness of A National Network
Spécificités des Tumeurs de la Sphère Ophtalmique: Utilité d’un Réseau National - Oncologie, Vol.22, No.4, pp. 189-194, 2020, DOI:10.32604/oncologie.2020.012377
- Abstract We describe the most frequent malignant intraocular tumors, conjunctival tumors and some lids and orbital tumors. Primary intraocular malignant tumors are retinoblastoma in children and uveal melanoma in adults. For uveal melanoma, the liver is the most frequent site of metastasis and this is why it is justified to prescribe liver ultrasonography every 6 months to these patients. Metastatic tumors can occur in the uvea and more frequently in the posterior part called the choroid. They are more frequent after breast cancer and lung cancer. Conjunctival tumors can be epithelial (benign papillomas and epidermoid carcinomas) or melanocytic (benign naevi and… More

Pathological Examination: Features of Ocular Tumors
Examen Anatomopathologique: Particularités des Tumeurs Oculaires - Oncologie, Vol.22, No.4, pp. 195-202, 2020, DOI:10.32604/oncologie.2020.013698

Abstract The pathological examination of ocular tumors has specificities in terms
of macroscopic management, microscopic analysis, and molecular examinations
requiring special attention. We discuss here the difficulties encountered in the
reception in the pathological anatomy laboratory of conjunctival samples,
enucleation and orbital exenteration pieces, then detail the diagnostic and theranostic,
microscopic and molecular characteristics of ocular tumor pathologies. Conjunctival
tumors (epithelial, melanocytic and lymphoid), choroidal tumors (including uveal
melanoma) and retinoblastoma are treated. Because of their low frequency and
their features, these tumors should be the subject of anatomo-clinical discussions.

Uveal Melanoma Management for Medical Oncologists in 2020
Prise en charge du mélanome uvéal en oncologie médicale en 2020 - Oncologie, Vol.22, No.4, pp. 203-212, 2020, DOI:10.32604/oncologie.2020.014102

Abstract Uveal melanoma is a rare subtype of melanoma, intrinsically
different from cutaneous melanoma. Despite optimal therapeutic management
allowing local control of the primary ocular tumor, 20 to 50% of patients
develop metastases, mainly localized to the liver, with a poor prognosis and a
12-month median survival from the diagnosis of the metastatic disease. There is
a lack of effective treatments in the metastatic setting, and dedicated strategies
and trials for uveal melanoma patients are needed, based on identification of
new targets and specific preclinical findings.

Le mélanome de l’uvée est un cancer rare, en tous points différent du mélanome… More -

- Dietary Inclusions and Exclusions: Preparation Against Cancer
- Oncologie, Vol.22, No.4, pp. 213-224, 2020, DOI:10.32604/oncologie.2020.014926
- Abstract Cancer results due to an imbalance between regulation of cell proliferation and apoptosis. As per the latest data released by World Health Organization (WHO), a large part of global population cannot access proper anticancer therapy, and this imposes a burden of approximately US$ 1.16 trillion on global economy. Relevant studies were identified through electronic searches of Pubmed, Medline, Scopus, Google scholar. In this review, we found that there is extensive range of dietary items whose components can influence either cell proliferation rate or cell death rate or both. Exclusion and avoidance of several dietary items/habits are linked with reduced risk… More

- The Investigation of Genotype-Phenotype Relationship in Multiple Primary Malignant Neoplasia Patients
- Oncologie, Vol.22, No.4, pp. 225-234, 2020, DOI:10.32604/oncologie.2020.014120
- Abstract Multiple primary malignant neoplasms (MPMN) are rare tumors that have attracted attention with increasing incidence rates in recent years and where cancer susceptibility genes may play a role in their etiology. In this study, it was aimed to determine the genotype-phenotype correlation in patients with MPMN. From January 2018 to January 2020, thirty patients were analyzed for 59 cancer susceptibility genes and diagnosed with MPMN, using a large multigene panel with Next Generation Sequencing technique (NGS) in Turkey. The mean age of first and second cancer diagnosis of cases were calculated as 42.5 and 49.9 (respectively). These primary cancers were… More

- Analysis on Characteristics and Nursing Points of Surgical and Interventional Treatment for Elderly Cerebral Aneurysm
- Oncologie, Vol.22, No.4, pp. 235-244, 2020, DOI:10.32604/oncologie.2020.014123
- Abstract Objective. The purpose was to explore the characteristics and nursing points of surgical and interventional treatment for elderly cerebral aneurysm. Methods. 100 elderly patients with cerebral aneurysm treated in our hospital from January 2017 to December 2019 were selected, and divided into craniotomy group (40 patients with neurosurgical clipping) and interventional surgery group (60 patients with endovascular interventional embolization) according to the treatment method to compare the operation time, hospitalization time, hospitalization expenses, degree of brain injury, complications and prognostic scores of the patients in two groups. Meanwhile, the relationship between the factors (age, aneurysm size, location) and prognosis of… More

- LncRNA-ATB Can Be a Biomarker for Diagnosis and Prognosis Evaluation of Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
- Oncologie, Vol.22, No.4, pp. 245-254, 2020, DOI:10.32604/oncologie.2020.014125
- Abstract Objective: This study was set out to inquire into the expression and clinical significance of lncRNA activated by transforming growth factor β (LncRNA-ATB) and in cancer tissues of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods: LncRNA-ATB in cancer tissues and adjacent tissues of 89 NSCLC patients was detected by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), and its clinical diagnostic value in NSCLC was determined by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Based on the median expression of LncRNAATB in NSCLC tissues, 89 patients were allocated into high- and low-expression groups. The 3-year survival rate was calculated using Kaplan-Meier method and… More
