    Notes: Summary.  A case of a 3-year-old boy with severe haemophilia A who had a successful neurosurgical drainage of a combined spontaneous left temporal subdural and intra-parenchimal haematoma is reported. Surgical intervention was required because of clinical worsening during conservative treatment with dexamethasone and factor VIII (FVIII) replacement therapy. Continuous FVIII infusion was given before, during and after the procedure. There were no surgical complications and neurological examination remains intact. Neurosurgical interventions may be reserved for special, high-risk cases, as the one presented.

    Notes: Galectin-3, a marker of well-differentiated thyroid carcinoma, is expressed in thyroid nodules with cytological atypia Aims: The distribution of galectin-3, a widely recognized marker of well-differentiated thyroid carcinoma, was investigated in 95 thyroid lesions including nodules with foci of cytoarchitectural atypia. Methods and results: Twenty-eight papillary carcinomas, five follicular carcinomas, one Hurthle cell carcinoma, three poorly differentiated carcinomas, one anaplastic carcinoma, 25 nodular hyperplasias and 27 follicular adenomas, including nodules with atypical features, three neoplasms of undetermined malignant potential and two thyroiditis cases were examined. By immunohistochemistry, galectin-3 was consistently found in carcinomas; otherwise benign nodules exhibited galectin-3-positive clusters of cells with poorly developed features of differentiated carcinoma (mainly of papillary type) such as nuclear chromatin clearing, nuclear clefting, pseudoinclusions, which, in each case, were not histologically sufficient to warrant a definitive diagnosis of malignancy. In other nodules galectin-3 staining was negative. The latter were either clearly benign or showed constantly a minor degree of chromatin clearing and of other atypical features when compared with galectin-3-positive cases. Conclusions: Galectin-3, a reliable marker of differentiated thyroid carcinoma as confirmed in our series of malignant neoplasms, appears expressed in nodules with an overall benign appearance but with focal areas suspicious for malignancy. The significance of such findings needs to be further investigated.

    Notes: Background : Whether liver steatosis affects sustained virological response in patients with chronic hepatitis C is still under discussion.Aim : To evaluate the impact of liver steatosis in patients treated (for chronic hepatitis C) with combination therapy.Methods : We evaluated 97 (male/female 82/15, mean age 41.1 years) consecutive naïve patients treated with pegylated interferon alpha-2b plus ribavirin.Results : Prevalence and severity of liver steatosis were significantly associated with genotype 3a [grade 3–4 in 14 of 32 patients (44%) vs. 8 of 65 patients (12%) with other genotypes; P = 0.001], while steatosis grade 1 (〈10% of hepatocytes affected) was more frequently associated with genotype 1a/1b [9/39 (23%) vs. 4/57 (7%); P = 0.02]. Overall, sustained virological response was 62.8%, and was statistically uninfluenced by the presence/absence of liver steatosis. On the contrary, the following variables were independently associated with sustained virological response at logistic regression analysis: genotype other than 1a/1b, positive association, (odds ratio 3.4, P 〈 0.04), and low-grade liver steatosis, negative association, (odds ratio 9.0, P =0.009), whereas sustained virological response was unaffected by severe liver steatosis, which was mainly associated with genotypes 2 and 3 [steatosis grade 2, 18/29 (62%); grade 3, 10/12 (83%); grade 4, 7/10 (70%)].Conclusions : Only low-grade liver steatosis negatively affects the outcome of combination therapy, with peginterferon alpha-2b plus ribavirin, while severe steatosis (which is virus-related in most cases) has no impact on virological response.

    Notes: Liver steatosis in chronic hepatitis C: a morphological sign suggesting infection with HCV genotype 3 Aims: To identify factors associated with liver steatosis in chronic hepatitis C. Methods and results: Occurrence and severity of liver steatosis in 254 chronic hepatitis C patients were compared with presence of alcohol abuse, body mass index (BMI) 〉26, history of intravenous drug addiction and hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype. Steatosis was found in 109 (43%) patients. The occurrence of steatosis was significantly associated with ongoing alcohol abuse (P=0.03) or HCV genotype 3 (P= 0.003), but not with BMI 〉26. A moderate to severe steatosis was present in 60% of patients infected with HCV genotype 3, irrespective of the presence of alcohol abuse, BMI 〉26 or history of intravenous drug addiction. Using a multivariable stepwise logistic regression analysis, infection with genotype 3 had an odds ratio (OR) of 10 (95% confidence interval (CI)=4.56–22) for a liver steatosis, whereas the presence of a cirrhosis at histology had an OR=0.256 (95% CI=0.07–0.92). Conclusions: A moderate to severe degree of steatosis of the liver is a morphological sign suggestive of infection with HCV genotype 3, independent of other risk factors of a fatty liver, but it may disappear at late stages of the disease.

    Notes: Abstract In this study we show that treatment of MDA-MB231 hormone-independent human breast cancer cells with oxytocin (OT) or with the OT analogue F314 induces significant growth inhibition together with a change in cell phenotype. In MCF7 and T47D human breast cancer cells, OT inhibits oestrogen-induced cell growth. In these same cells, OT administration significantly enhances the inhibitory effect of tamoxifen on cell proliferation. MDA-MB231, MCF7 and T47D cells all express mRNA specific for the OT receptor. These data suggest that it may be possible to inhibit breast cancer growth using OT and OT analogues.

    Notes: Abstract  Mixed medullary-follicular carcinomas (MMFC) of the thyroid are rare tumours showing the morphological and immunochemical properties of both parafollicular and follicular cell lineages. Their recognition is based on a classical WHO definition, although several other patterns have been described in recent years. We investigated 11 cases of MMFC by immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization (ISH) to analyse the structural features, the immunophenotypic profile and the calcitonin (CT) and thyroglobulin (TG) gene expression of the neoplasm. Histologically, 10 cases had mixed parafollicular and follicular cell populations in the primary tumour and 1 only in the lymph node metastasis. All cases were immunoreactive for CT (in medullary areas) and TG (in follicular areas and also in the solid component of 8/11 cases). These findings were confirmed by ISH analysis. Combined ISH and immunostaining showed that most cases had separate CT and TG gene expression, although rare cells with concurrent CT and TG gene expression were identified in 2 tumours. We conclude that (a) MMFC display heterogeneous morphological patterns and are a special type of thyroid tumour undergoing divergent differentiation; (b) in MMFC, CT and TG genes are generally not simultaneously expressed by the same cell, although dual expression of CT and TG was present in rare neoplastic elements; and (c) the origin of MMFC, whether they are derived from the ultimo-branchial body or result from neoplastic transformation of different cell populations following common oncogenic stimuli, is unclear.
