    Hamartoma of the breast in two patients: A case report
    (2013-08-01T00:00:00Z) Sonmez, FATMA CAVİDE; Gucin, ZÜHAL; Yildiz, PELİN; Tosuner, ZEYNEP; SÖNMEZ, FATMA CAVİDE; GÜCİN, ZÜHAL; YILDIZ, PELİN; TOSUNER, ZEYNEP
    Breast hamartomas are rare, benign, tumor-like nodules composed of glandular, adipose and fibrous tissue. The hamartoma was first described in 1971 as a lipofibroadenoma, fibroadenolipoma or adenolipoma, based on the predominant component of the breast tissue. Clinical findings resemble fibroadenoma and if there is a palpable mass, the patients may receive an immediate diagnosis. Ductal hyperplasia, apocrine metaplasia, calcification and adenosis may occur within the hamartoma, with rarer instances of lobular or ductal intraepithelial neoplasms. Although hamartoma is usually benign, a malignant transformation is possible. An excision and histological examination is necessary for the differential diagnosis and also for any epithelial lesions of the hamartoma. Simple excision is enough for treatment if there is no coincidental epithelial malignant lesion. The patients in the present study were treated by simple excision as there were no proliferative changes in the lesions. No recurrence or other problems were detected in the 18-month follow-up. The current study presents two cases of breast hamartoma that were diagnosed as an adenolipoma and a fibroadenolipoma, and then describes the macroscopic and microscopic observations of these lesions.

    Objective: Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the 14th most common tumor in the world. In 2010, the protocol for the examination of kidney specimens with invasive carcinoma of renal tubular origin was updated. The aim of our study was to review 1-year RCC patients of our hospital according to the new protocol, classification, and staging systems with respect to their morphological and immunohistochemical features.. Methods: The medical records of 54 RCC patients between July 2012 and July 2013 were retrospectively reviewed. They were classified according to the WHO 2004 classification system and newly defined subtypes. The following variables were determined in each case: age, sex, histological subtype, stage, and Fuhrman nuclear grade. Results: In our study, 30 (55.6%) men and 24 (44.4%) women were diagnosed with RCC out of 54 patients. The median age was 56 years. In total, 21 patients had (55.2%) right-and 17 had (44.74%) left-sided tumors. Thirty-eight (70.3%) clear cell, 6 (11.1%) papillary, 7 (12.96%) chromophobe, 1 (1.85%) multilocular, 1 (1.85%) unclassified, and 1 (1.85%) tubulocystic RCC were seen. According to primary tumor, 33 (61.1%) pT1, 10 (18.51%) pT2, 9 (16.66%) pT3, and 2 (3.70%) pT4 patients were reported. Chromophobe RCCs were excluded from the Fuhrman grading (G) system; of the remaining 2 (4.17%) were G1, 30 (62.5%) were G2, 13 (27.08%) were G3, and 3 (6.25%) were G4 tumors. Conclusion: Although RCC constitutes the majority of renal tumors, different subtypes are also encountered. In our study, clear cell RCCs were the most common type of tumors consistent with the literature. The remarkable point was that chromophobe RCCs were more frequent in our study. Because of infrequency, more examples are required to distinguish newly defined subtypes.
