Xanthogranulomatous inflammation is a rare type of chronic inflammation. It destroys the tissue of the affected organ, mostly affecting the kidney and gall bladder. Xanthogranulomatous inflammation of female genital tract being a rare entity, only few numbered cases involving the ovary have been reported in literature. This chronic inflammation of fallopian tubes and ovaries, usually present with pelvic masses, and on imaging and macroscopic appearance, are mostly misdiagnosed as ovarian neoplasm or tuberculosis. We are presenting a case of 14-year-old girl, who presented with an abdominal lump and on clinical and radiological investigations was suspected as ovarian malignancy but histo-pathology reported it as serous cystadenoma with xanthogranulomaotus oophoritis. The rarity of this case lies in the fact that rare destructive inflammatory features was present in a benign neoplasm of the ovary (serous cystadenoma) and that too in a youngest age reported till now.

This is a case of a 71-year-old woman, who presented with a large abdominal mass. Microscopic examination revealed metastatic renal cell carcinoma in an otherwise massively enlarged benign ovarian tumour of mixed mucinous cystadenoma and Brenner tumour. Clinicopathological and radiological assessment together with a thorough evaluation of gross and histological features, including the use of immunohistochemical stains, is essential to confirm the diagnosis and rule out the possibility of primary clear cell carcinoma of ovary, as this has important prognostic and therapeutic implications.

AbstractIn this work, we are reporting that “Shock and Kill”, a therapeutic approach designed to eliminate latent HIV from cell reservoirs, is extrapolatable to cancer therapy. This is based on the observation that malignant cells express a spectrum of human endogenous retroviral elements (HERVs) which can be transcriptionally boosted by HDAC inhibitors. The endoretroviral gene HERV-V2 codes for an envelope protein, which resembles syncytins. It is significantly overexpressed upon exposure to HDAC inhibitors and can be effectively targeted by simultaneous application of TLR7/8 agonists, triggering intrinsic apoptosis. We demonstrated that this synergistic cytotoxic effect was accompanied by the functional disruption of the TLR7/8-NFκB, Akt/PKB, and Ras-MEK-ERK signalling pathways. CRISPR/Cas9 ablation of TLR7 and HERV-V1/V2 curtailed apoptosis significantly, proving the pivotal role of these elements in driving cell death. The effectiveness of this new approach was confirmed in ovarian tumour xenograft studies, revealing a promising avenue for future cancer therapies.
