The Lion and the Mouse: An Aesop Fable Retold and Illustrated by Bernadette Watts
No full textHere is an extra copy of this book. ©2000 by Nord-Süd Verlag AG, Gossau Zürich, and first published in Switzerland under the title Der Löwe und die Maus. This lovely oversized edition starts in a new way: a playful lion cub is awakened by a mouse scampering across his paw. Making the lion young allows, I think, for a different understanding of his boast that a mouse cannot help a lion. Though the art is still done for children, Watts creates one of the most realistic nets I have seen for the lion, who roars day and night. None of the animals can help him. Watts pays special attention to the surrounding creatures, including colorful snakes and birds. My favorites are the curious and attentive mongooses.This is a hardbound book (hard cover)This book has a dust jacket (book cover)First editionFirst printingRetold and Illustrated by Bernadette Watt

Histopathologic Alterations in Ovarian Papillary Serous Cystadenocarcinomas After Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy: Possible Clinical Significance
No full textObjectives: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy is being increasingly used prior to debulking for ovarian serous carcinoma. There can be significant histopathologic alterations, sometimes making the pathologic diagnosis challenging.
Methods: A Medline search was performed, and articles describing the histologic changes associated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy, as well as any possible clinical impact, were reviewed.
Results: The scope of histopathological changes seen after neoadjuvant chemotherapy for ovarian serous carcinoma, as well as their possible clinical significance is presented.
Conclusions: Histopathologic changes include degenerative changes, increased atypia, and alterations that may make pathologic interpretation difficult, particularly if there is a lack of familiarity with these changes and lack of available clinical history. More study is needed to assess whether there is any prognostic significance to these alterations.Peer reviewe

Primary Signet Ring Cell Adenocarcinoma of the Uterine Cervix: a rare neoplasm that raises the question of metastasis to the cervix
No full textPrimary signet ring cell adenocarcinoma is extremely rare. Signet ring cell carcinoma is more commonly primary in the stomach or breast, and the more likely metastatic disease to the cervix needs to be ruled out. We present a case of primary signet ring cell carcinoma of the cervix and review the literature.Peer reviewed
Lymphoma Presenting as a Mass of the Vulva: report of a case of a rare vulvar neoplasm not treated by surgery

Pseudopapillary Granulosa Cell Tumor: A Case of This Rare Subtype
No full textBackground: The pseudopapillary pattern of granulosa cell tumor is rare.
Case:We describe a the case of a 35-year-old woman who presented with an initial diagnosis of papillary serous cystadenocarcinoma
Results: Evaluation, including immunohistochemistry, led to the diagnosis of pseudopapillary granulosa cell tumor.
Conclusion: The pseudopapillary pattern of granulosa cell tumor is rare, and must be suspected in order to utilize appropriate immunohistochemistry and reach the correct diagnosis. Inhibin positivity is particularly helpful.Peer reviewe

Carcinoma-in-Situ in a Benign Cystic Teratoma of the Ovary: A Possible Precursor of Invasive Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Ovary
No full textBackground: Squamous carcinoma-in-situ(CIS) within a benign cystic teratoma is exceptionally rare, particularly in the absence of an adjacent invasive squamous component. Most of the few reported cases of CIS without invasive carcinoma occur in postmenopausal women, and are usually incidental histopathologic findings.
Case: We present a case of CIS in a benign cystic teratoma, which preceded invasive squamous cell carcinoma in the contralateral ovary, and review the literature.
Conclusions: In the absence of invasion, excision of the ovary with CIS appears to be adequate therapy. If CIS is detected histopathologically, a search for invasive elements should be undertaken.Peer reviewe
