Tumor Progression

7.8K
Tumor progression is a phenomenon where the pre-formed tumor acquires successive mutations to become clinically more aggressive and malignant. In the 1950s, Foulds first described the stepwise progression of cancer cells through successive stages.
Colon cancer is one of the best-documented examples of tumor progression. Early mutation in the APC gene in colon cells causes a small growth on the colon wall called a polyp. With time, this polyp grows into a benign, pre-cancerous tumor. Further...

Glaucoma: Overview

1.6K
Glaucoma is an eye condition characterized by increased intraocular pressure that damages the retina and optic nerve, leading to irreversible blindness if left untreated. The human eye has various components, including the cornea, iris, pupil, lens, and optic nerve. Aqueous humor is secreted by the epithelium of the ciliary body in the posterior chamber and flows through the trabecular meshwork and canal of Schlemm, maintaining normal intraocular pressure. The trabecular meshwork and the canal...

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Radiology

Background:

  • Glomus tumours are rare neoplasms, comprising 1-5% of hand soft tissue tumours.
  • Classically located in the subungual region, they can present atypically.
  • Delayed diagnosis is common, leading to prolonged patient suffering.

Observation:

  • A 32-year-old woman experienced excruciating pain due to a glomus tumour.
  • Clinical examination revealed positive Hildreth's sign and Love test.
  • Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) precisely delineated the tumour's extent.

Findings:

  • Surgical excision of the glomus tumour was performed.
  • Histological examination confirmed the diagnosis.
  • The case underscores diagnostic challenges and the utility of imaging.

Implications:

  • Highlights the persistent issue of delayed glomus tumour diagnosis.
  • Emphasizes the critical role of advanced imaging (MRI) in diagnosis.
  • Demonstrates the value of imaging in surgical planning for glomus tumours.
