• Abstract

  Endometrial carcinomas occur more frequently in the endometrioid histological type, until then considered the prototype of the estrogen-related carcinomas (type I), often diagnosed still restricted to the uterine body and considered of favorable prognosis. The increasing incidence along with the advances in the molecular knowledge exposed their heterogeneity and the need for different the…

• Abstract

  Triple-negative breast carcinomas (TNBC) correspond to a heterogeneous group of neoplasia, characterized by lack of expression of estrogen and progesterone receptor, and by the absence of amplification or overexpression of HER2. They are more prevalence among African descendants and younger women. They are often associated with the basal-like genetic phenotype; however, other intrinsic mo…

• Abstract

  Mucinous ovarian tumors present difficulties regarding characterization of primary site, and many of them, even those with borderline morphology, correspond in fact to secondary neoplasia. The morphologic criteria, even associated to immunohistochemical markers, as the coordinated expression of cytokeratins 7 and 20, are far from the resolution of this dilemma. The ovarian carcinomas, inc…
