- Ovarian torsion is the twisting of an ovary on its ligamentous supports - Concomitant ovarian and tubal torsion (adnexal torsion) occur in up to 67% of
cases- It is generally considered an acute condition (subacute…)
- All ages- Reproductive years (pregnancy: 5-fold – first trim.)- highest prevalence
Predisposing Conditions- Large (>5 cm) cysts and cystic neoplasms (benign mature cystic teratomas….)- Ovarian hyper- stimulation syndrome - Normal ovaries (usually right ovary) in adolescent or teenagers
- Non-specific symptoms and laboratory tests. DD: PID, appendicitis…..- Imaging plays a central diagnostic role (ovary-sparing)

REVIEW: CT Findings of Chemotherapy-induced Toxicity Torrisi et al
the toxicities of the molecularly targeted
agents are less predictable.
Targeted therapies can be classifi ed
according to their mechanism of action
( Table 4 ). Monoclonal antibodies are
designed to bind to antigenic determi-
nants of specifi c molecules, the expres-
sion of which is sometimes upregulated
in malignancy, but the action of such
antibodies does not necessarily rely on
the activation of immune effector cells.
Several monoclonal antibodies are in
clinical use. Rituximab (Rituxan; Biogen
Idec), a chimeric monoclonal antibody
that is used to treat B-cell non-Hodgkin
lymphoma, binds to the CD20 protein
on the surface of both normal and ma-
lignant B cells ( 2 ). Binding the CD20
receptor init iates apoptosis, down-
regulat ion of CD20 expression, and
antibody-dependent cell phagocytosis
or complement-mediated lysis of the
tumor cell. The drug is also licensed for
use in the treatment of rheumatoid ar-
thritis, and effi cacy has been reported
in other autoimmune disorders. More
recently, cetuximab (Erbitux; Bristol
Myers Squibb, ImClone, Merck) was li-
censed to treat colon adenocarcinoma
and squamous head and neck cancers.
It binds to the EGFR and prevents
the interaction of its ligand ( epidermal
growth factor) with its receptor (EGFR),
thereby blocking the activation of intra-
cellular signaling pathways that would
normally instruct the cell to grow and
divide. Hence, it acts as a tyrosine kinase
inhibitor. Important to notice is a recent
discovery that cetuximab is active only
in tumors that are wild type for KRAS
( 3 ). The exact mechanism of action is
unclear, as cetuximab recently demon-
strated antitumor activity in patients
with colorectal cancer whose disease
Paradigm Shift in the Systemic
Treatment of Cancer
Cytotoxic chemotherapy agents usually
interfere with RNA and DNA synthesis
or cell division and, therefore, affect cell
growth by various mechanisms of ac-
tion. Some of the most commonly used
drugs include classic agents such as cy-
clophosphamide (an alkylating agent),
cisplatin (a DNA intercalating agent),
fl uorouracil (5-FU; an antimetabolite),
doxorubicin (an anthracycline), vincris-
tine (a mitotic spindle inhibitor), and
bleomycin. Some of the more recently
developed cytotoxic agents include gem-
citabine (another antimetabolite), ox-
aliplatin (a cisplatin analog), paclitaxel
and docetaxel (the ―taxanes,‖ which are
mitotic spindle poisons), and ir inotecan
(a topoisomerase inhibitor) ( Table 1 ).
Common trade names are provided for
reference ( Table 2 ). If the drug’s damage
to the cell is too severe to be repaired,
cell death or apoptosis will occur. The
goal is a preferential effect on tumor over
normal tissues. Drugs that interfere with
nucleic acid synthesis and cell division have
the greatest effect on rapidly dividing cells.
Therefore, these drugs will also affect
the rapidly dividing cells of the intestine
and bone marrow, leading to common and
sometimes dose-limiting gastrointestinal
toxicity and myelosuppression. Nearly any
organ can be affected, however, de-
pending on the drug. Peripheral nerves
(eg, vinca alkaloids, cisplatin, taxanes),
lungs (eg, bleomycin and gemcitabine),
kidneys (eg, cisplatin), heart (eg, anthra-
cyclines), and central nervous system
(eg, high-dose methotrexate, 5-FU) are
only a few examples ( Table 3 ).
Molecular therapies have developed
as a result of an improved knowledge of
cancer biology. They target cell surface
antigens (as in the case of monoclonal
antibodies) or various signaling mole-
cules (as in the case of kinase inhibitors).
Many of these agents affect multiple
targets and, therefore, have the poten-
tial to inhibit molecules that are critical
to unsuspected pathways, causing toxic-
ity that has not been previously observed
( 1 ). While some of the toxicities of the
cytotoxic agents and molecularly targeted
therapies overlap, there is concern that
Classic chemotherapy agents inhibit
cell division and target rapidly
proliferating cells. In contrast, the
newer molecular targeted therapies are
directed at specifi c molecules respon-
sible for regulating cell activities, and the
onset and presentation of their toxicities
may therefore differ. Understanding
the mechanisms of action of the newer
molecular agents may aid recognition
of their associated toxicities, though
the mechanisms of the toxicities are
not completely understood. Several of
the monoclonal antibodies and tyrosine
kinase inhibitors bind known membrane
cell receptors. Others bind intracellular
molecules and are multitargeted, and
their toxicities may be more ubiquitous.
We will review the most common
toxicities of the classic and newer cyto-
toxic chemotherapy agents and discuss
what is known about the toxicities of
the molecularly targeted agents accord-
ing to the available clinical and radio-
logic literature. Our discussion is limited
to toxicities that may be seen on com-
puted tomographic (CT) studies of the
chest, abdomen, and pelvis, because
these are the imaging examinations most
commonly used in the follow-up of can-
cer patients. Also noted are the clinical
contexts in which these toxicities occur
and details that radiologists should look
for, not only on images but in the clini-
cal history.
Essentials
Classic chemotherapy agents n
target rapidly proliferating cells;
molecularly targeted therapies
target specifi c key cell membrane
and intracellular molecules.
Radiologists may more easily rec- n
ognize the manifestations of che-
motherapy toxicities by under-
standing the mechanisms of
action of the chemother apeutic
agents.
The radiologist should be aware n
that toxicities can be asymptom-
atic and that radiologists are
instrumental in reporting early
manifestations of toxicities to
referr ing physicians.

Fistulas in Malignant Gynecologic Disease
- As a result of a primary or recurrent tumor - As a consequence of:
Surgery (particularly if the surgical procedure is radical and complex or if the surgical field includes previously irradiated tissue)
Radiation therapy (eg, cervical, colorectal, endometrial cancer)
Types:
- Vesicovaginal and enterovaginal fistulas (more frequent)
- Ureterovaginal, enterovesical, enterocutaneous, and uretero-alimentary tract

- Ureterocolic fistulas are most common and can be caused by urinary calculi, iatrogenic trauma, diverticulitis, radiation therapy, transitional cell carcinoma, and tuberculosis
• Symptoms: flank pain, hematuria, recurrent urinary tract infections, pneumaturia, fecaluria, and diarrhea
• Diagnosis: Retrograde pyelography, and contrast-enhanced CT: Gas in theureter
Barium studies of the intestinal tract often will not reveal the fistula
Uretero–Alimentary Tract Fistula

- Right ureter: terminal ileum, cecum, appendix, and ascending colon and their mesenteries
- Left ureter: descending colon and sigmoid colon and their mesenteries
- Either ureter may be injured during surgery, or radiation performed on these structures, or engulfed in an adjacent mass

Down Syndrome Cancer Incidence in DS
Leukemia
Testicular cancer
Other cancers
- Acute lymphocytic - Acute non-lymphocytic - 19-fold higher
- Seminomatous (gonadal and extragonadal)- 50-fold higher (0.5% compared with an expected incidence of 0.087%
in the general population)
- Non-Hodgkin lymphoma, stomach, colon, small intestine, breast, endometrial, brain, kidney, liver cancers…

• Because of improvement in medical care, a higher proportion of children with DS are now surviving beyond adolescence
• Therefore, more patients reach the predisposition age range when testicular cancer is most prevalent (35 years)
• Testicular palpation in this population should be considered a component of routine physical examination
