Sarcomatoid chromophobe renal cell carcinoma with heterologous sarcomatoid elements. A case report and review of the literature.

30 Oct 2009 Chromophobe renal cell carcinoma (CRCC) is a distinct subtype of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) that is well known for its relatively good prognosis. Sarcomatoid transformation in this tumor, although rare, has been well documented in the literature ... Read more...

A novel model of bone-metastatic prostate cancer in immunocompetent mice.

30 Oct 2009 BACKGROUND: Bone metastasis is a frequent and catastrophic consequence of prostate cancer for which only palliative treatment is available. Animal models of bone metastatic prostate cancer are necessary for understanding disease mechanisms but few ... Read more...

A case of bone, lung, pleural and liver metastases from renal cell carcinoma which responded remarkably well to zoledronic acid monotherapy.

4 Oct 2009 Herein, we report a rare case in which bisphosphonate zoledronic acid (ZA) effectively treated not only multiple bone metastases but also lung, pleural and liver metastases from renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Recently, ZA is used to treat ... Read more...
