INTRODUÃÃO Os ganglioneuromas da supra-renal são tumores raros, benignos, bem diferenciados e têm origem na crista neural. A maioria dos doentes com ganglioneuroma da supra-renal são assintomáticos, e grande parte destes tumores são não secretores. Geralmente, são encontrados acidentalmente em exames de imagem abdominal por outro motivo. CASO CLÃNICO Sexo feminino, 53 anos, com antecedentes de hipert...
Introduction: The adrenal ganglioneuroma are rare, benign and well differentiated tumors that arise from neural crest tissue. Most patients with adrenal ganglioneuroma are asymptomatic, and most of these are non-secreting tumors. They are usually found incidentally on abdominal imaging study for another reason. Case: A 53-year-old female, with a history of hypertension diagnosed at age 30, dyslipidaemia, depr...
Tumors of peripheral nerve are largely neuroectodermal in nature and derived from 2 elements of nerve, Schwann or perineurial cells. In contrast, mesenchymal tumors affecting peripheral nerve are rare and are derived mainly from epineurial connective tissue. The spectrum of the latter is broad and includes lipoma, vascular neoplasms, hematopoietic tumors, and even meningioma. Of malignant peripheral nerve neopl...

BACKGROUND: Malignant gliomas are the most prevalent type of primary brain tumours but the therapeutic armamentarium for these tumours is limited. Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) signalling has been shown to be a key regulator of glioma development. Clinical trials evaluating the efficacy of anti-PDGFRA therapies on gliomas are ongoing. In this study, we intended to analyse the expression of PDGFA and its...
