A 56-year-old woman underwent surgery for advanced gastric cancer 5 years ago and received postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy. She had no recurrence since then. However, 5 years after surgery, contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) showed a mass in the right inguinal region suspected to be a hydrocele of the canal of Nuck, with a blood test showing a slightly elevated CA19-9 level (63.0 U/mL). Six months later, CT showed an enlarged mass in the right inguinal region and inflammation in the surrounding area. In addition, both inguinal lymph nodes and those in the right iliac artery area were enlarged, suggesting the possibility of malignancy. For diagnostic purposes, a right inguinal mass was excised. Histopathological examination revealed that it was endometrioid adenocarcinoma with ectopic endometriois as the origin. The differential diagnoses for inguinal masses in women include an inguinal hernia, hydrocele of the canal of Nuck, ectopic endometriosis, lymphoma, and metastatic malignancy. The presence of a primary malignancy in the inguinal region is sporadic but must be differentiated.

There is no established standard treatment method for it, and it often causes sudden suffocation, and some cases may be difficult to save. A 63-year-old man was admitted to the hospital with dyspnea, and developed massive hemoptysis from lung cancer shortly after admission. The tumor had obstructed the right main bronchus and had invaded the right pulmonary artery. Surgery and interventional radiology were judged impossible. The patient was successfully saved by the introduction of Veno-Venous Extra Corporeal Membrane Oxygenation (V-V ECMO), and hemostasis was obtained by radiotherapy. Two months after completion of radiotherapy, he was weaned off the ventilator and discharged on his own. He died of increased peritoneal dissemination and other complications 1 year and 1 month later, but no recurrence of hemoptysis was noted until his death. We experienced a case of massive hemoptysis in which V-V ECMO and radiation therapy succeeded in saving life and stopping bleeding. The use of V-V ECMO by emergency care teams and multimodality therapy, including radiotherapy, were effective for massive hemoptysis from lung cancer.","PeriodicalId":13703,"journal":{"name":"International Cancer Conference Journal","volume":"38 5","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135934422","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The patient's presentation included a long history of rectal bleeding and an incidental discovery of a hypoattenuating mass in the left kidney during a contrast-enhanced CT scan. Renal MRI revealed a 3.5 cm left renal lower pole mass, presenting as heterogeneously hyperintense on T1-weighted images and hypointense on T2-weighted images, with gradual mild enhancement post-contrast. Subsequent total nephrectomy confirmed the histopathological diagnosis of a venous hemangioma. This case underlines the need for recognizing unique imaging features of renal venous hemangiomas, contributing to the differential diagnosis of T2 dark hypoenhancing renal masses.
