    Brenner tumor

    No full text
    Brenner tumors are comprised of solid to partly cystic epithelial nests surrounded by stroma composed of bundles of tightly packed spindle-shaped cells. The epithelial cells are polygonal and of squamoid type, with pale, eosinophilic cytoplasm and oval nuclei with distinct nucleoli and longitudinal grooving, which is commonly described as coffee-bean in appearance

    Verso il passato

    Conosciamo tutti Brenner come uno dei protagonisti della ricostruzione di Berlino dopo la riunificazione, all’interno del piano generale di Josef Paul Kleihues. Già si parlava di spazi urbani, di facciate, di tettonica, di materiali: di una Berlino di pietra che si radica al suolo, che contempla la gravità, contro una Berlino di vetro, abbagliata (!) dalle nuove tecnologie. Tra queste discussioni, la cui eco si percepiva sino ai banchi delle università italiane, si componeva, per l’ennesima volta, un’altra Berlino: un’araba fenice risorta sui tracciati planimetrici della precedente città. Da qui nasce l’accostamento di Brenner ad altri architetti che, partendo dalla storia, cercano di configurare nuove possibilità del reale, nuovi episodi urbani che si distanzino dal passato per evoluzione, non per rottura

    Spiral Contractometer

    No full text
    Excessive internal stress in electroplated coatings may cause peeling, blistering, or cracking of the deposit. The spiral contractometer developed by Abner Brenner measured internal stress as it developed in the plating process, and was widely used both for research and for production control in the plating industry. It permitted the study of such variables as composition of the bath and grain size of the deposit. The coating was applied to one surface of a copper or stainless steel helical strip 0.25 to 0.75 millimeters thick. As deposition occurred, the helix coiled or uncoiled slightly, and the rotation was magnified by 10:1 gearing. After stripping, the helix could be reused.[H] 44 cm [W] 11 cm [Diam] 10 c

    Brain metastases from malignant Brenner tumor of the ovary: A case report and a literature review

    No full text
    Introduction: Brenner tumor of the ovary represents an uncommon neoplasm. It constitutes about 1.5% of all ovarian tumors with a peak of incidence in the fifth decade. The vast majority of Brenner tumors is benign, while only 1% is malignant and associated with a poor prognosis. Diagnosis could be made only with histological examination, and surgery is the mainstay of treatment. Materials and methods: Here we present the case of a patient affected by a malignant Brenner tumor of the ovary, with metastases to brain, lung and liver and by a concomitant low grade endometroid adenocarcinoma of the uterus. A postoperative platinum based chemotherapy (CHT) was planned. The adjuvant treatment was discontinued for hematologic and liver toxicity and the patient died one month later due to a cardiorespiratory arrest. Results and discussion: For what concerns adjuvant therapy, it is supposed that chemotherapy is profitable in the survival of these patients, but what agents would really provide an objective response in the presence of metastatic disease is not standardized. Conclusion: Because of the rarity and the limited good quality research reports, multicentric prospective trials are needed to improve preoperative diagnosis of MBTs and investigate the best treatment

    Tumor de Brenner maligno: caso clínico

    El tumor de Brenner es una neoplasia rara, que representa el 1-2 % de las neoplasias de ovario. La mayoría son benignas, pero existe un pequeño porcentaje de casos de tumor de Brenner maligno, entre ellos el caso que se presenta. Se trata de una mujer de 41 años que presentó una tumoración ovárica cuyo resultado anatomopatológico fue de carcinoma pobremente diferenciado, con asociación de tumor tipo Brenner maligno. A pesar de ser diagnosticado en estadio precoz, este caso destaca por su mal pronóstico

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    No full text
    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
