Astrocytoma
Astrocytoma is a type of brain tumor that originates from astrocytes, the star-shaped glial cells in the brain and spinal cord that support and nourish neurons. Astrocytomas are part of a broader category known as gliomas and are classified based on their grade (I to IV), which reflects how fast the tumor grows and how likely it is to spread.
Grade I (Pilocytic Astrocytoma): Typically benign and slow-growing, often seen in children.
Grade II (Diffuse Astrocytoma): Infiltrative, slow-growing but may progress.
Grade III (Anaplastic Astrocytoma): Malignant, faster-growing.
Grade IV (Glioblastoma): Most aggressive form.
Small Intestine Cancer
Small intestine cancer is a rare malignancy that arises in the duodenum, jejunum, or ileum, parts of the small bowel. It includes several subtypes:
• Adenocarcinoma (most common)
• Carcinoid tumors (neuroendocrine tumors)
• Lymphoma
• Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs)
Xp11 Translocation Renal Cell Carcinoma (Xp11 tRCC)
Xp11 translocation renal cell carcinoma (Xp11 tRCC) is a rare subtype of kidney cancer characterized by genetic translocations involving the Xp11.2 chromosome region, which result in the fusion of the TFE3 gene with various partners (e.g., PRCC, ASPSCR1, SFPQ).
This fusion drives abnormal TFE3 protein expression, promoting tumor growth.
Xp11 tRCC occurs in children, adolescents, and young adults, but can also appear in older patients, sometimes after prior chemotherapy. It is considered part of the MiT family translocation renal cell carcinomas
Carcinoid Tumors (Neuroendocrine Tumors of GI and Lung)
Carcinoid tumors are a type of neuroendocrine tumor (NET) that arise from hormone-producing cells in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract or lungs. They are usually slow-growing, but may still spread and cause hormonal syndromes.
Wilms Tumor (Nephroblastoma)
Wilms Tumor, also known as Nephroblastoma, is the most common kidney cancer in children, typically diagnosed between ages 2 and 5.
It arises from embryonic renal precursor cells (metanephric blastema) that fail to mature properly during kidney development.
Wilms Tumor is often unilateral, but in 5–10% of cases it affects both kidneys (bilateral or multifocal).
Genetic mutations involving WT1, WT2, or related chromosomal regions (11p13, 11p15) play a key role.
It is a highly treatable and curable pediatric cancer with modern multimodal therapy (surgery, chemotherapy, ± radiation).
Conjunctival Melanoma
Conjunctival melanoma is a rare and potentially aggressive cancer that arises from melanocytes in the conjunctiva, the mucous membrane covering the eye and inner eyelids. It can arise de novo or from a pre-existing nevus or primary acquired melanosis (PAM).
Lung Cancer (Non-Small Cell, Small Cell)
Lung cancer originates in the lungs and is one of the most common and deadly cancers worldwide. It is divided into two main types:
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC): ~85% of cases; includes adenocarcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and large cell carcinoma.
Small cell lung cancer (SCLC): ~15% of cases; more aggressive and fast-spreading.
Ependymoma
Ependymoma is a rare type of glioma that arises from ependymal cells lining the ventricles of the brain and the central canal of the spinal cord. It can occur at any age but is more common in children (intracranial) and in adults (spinal). Ependymomas can be benign or malignant depending on the grade and subtype.
WHO classification includes:
Grade I: Subependymoma, Myxopapillary ependymoma
Grade II: Classic ependymoma
Grade III: Anaplastic ependymoma
Laryngeal Cancer
Laryngeal cancer is a malignancy that arises in the larynx (voice box), located in the throat. The most common type is squamous cell carcinoma, affecting the cells lining the larynx. It is strongly associated with smoking and heavy alcohol use.
The larynx is divided into three parts:
• Supraglottis (above the vocal cords)
• Glottis (the vocal cords)
• Subglottis (below the vocal cords)
