| Popis: |
Deciduoid mesothelioma is an uncommon histological variant of epithelial mesothelioma which is extremely clinically aggressive. We report 3 cases of pleural caducoid mesothelioma in women of 75, 74 and 23 years of age. All patients presented with dyspnoea, vomiting and pelvic pain. Their imaging studies showed nodular pleuropericardic thickening, a parietal pleuropericardic solid mass and a large thoracic mass, respectively. Only one of them could be treated with chemotherapy, surgery and radiotherapy. Post diagnostic survival was 24 days, 1 month and 17 months respectively (mean 6.2 months). We describe the clinicopathological and immunohistochemical findings together with a review of the relevant literature. |
