Migraine is a common medical condition affecting more than 10% of population in Poland. Acute migraine attacks are often associated with gastrointestinal symptoms ranging from mild nausea to vomiting. The present study was specifically designed to compare the efficacy of the combination of lysine acetylsalicylate and metoclopramide (1620 mg LAS + 10 mg MTC--Migpriv) and ergotamine plus caffeine (2 mg ERG + 200 mg CAF--Coffecorn forte) in the treatment of migraine headache and nausea. 98 patients with migraine meeting HIS criteria were randomized. The primary endpoint was the number of patients having headache relief and no nausea or vomiting two hours after the drug intake. Significantly more Migpriv treated patients than Coffecorn ones were free of headache two hours after drug administration (58.7% vs. 35.7% respectively: p<0.002). Reported adverse events were rare and transient. Migpriv was significantly more effective than Coffecorn forte in relieving the migraine attack symptoms.

Epithelioid sarcoma is a malignant mesenchymal neoplasm with morphologic and immunophenotypic epithelioid differentiation, which rarely arises in solid organs. We report a case of primary epithelioid sarcoma in the adrenal gland of a 31-year-old female. The patient initially presented with nausea and rectal bleeding, and subsequent imaging studies revealed a 4.4 cm left adrenal gland mass and left retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy. Clinical and radiological studies did not reveal tumor elsewhere in the patient. Histologic features were those of epithelioid sarcoma, proximal type with cohesive clusters of epithelioid tumor cells harboring frequent mitoses, and areas of necrosis. Immunohistochemical stains showed strong, diffuse expression of epithelial markers (pancytokeratin), and CD34 and Fli-1. Partial and focal positive staining of CK7 was also noted. Nuclear expression of SMARCB1 (INI-1) protein was lost. ERG was negative in this case. We believe that this is the second-case report of a primary adrenal gland epithelioid sarcoma. Fli-1 positivity was seen in our case, and ERG was negative as shown in some recent publications regarding epithelioid sarcomas.
