"Over the last few years, we have published our research regularly in Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research. Having published in more than 20 high impact journals over the last five years including several high impact ones and reviewing articles for even more journals across my fields of interest, we value our published work in JCDR for their high standards in publishing scientific articles. The ease of submission, the rapid reviews in under a month, the high quality of their reviewers and keen attention to the final process of proofs and publication, ensure that there are no mistakes in the final article. We have been asked clarifications on several occasions and have been happy to provide them and it exemplifies the commitment to quality of the team at JCDR."

"Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research is at present a well-known Indian originated scientific journal which started with a humble beginning. I have been associated with this journal since many years. I appreciate the Editor, Dr. Hemant Jain, for his constant effort in bringing up this journal to the present status right from the scratch. The journal is multidisciplinary. It encourages in publishing the scientific articles from postgraduates and also the beginners who start their career. At the same time the journal also caters for the high quality articles from specialty and super-specialty researchers. Hence it provides a platform for the scientist and researchers to publish. The other aspect of it is, the readers get the information regarding the most recent developments in science which can be used for teaching, research, treating patients and to some extent take preventive measures against certain diseases. The journal is contributing immensely to the society at national and international level."

" Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research (JCDR) is a multi-specialty medical and dental journal publishing high quality research articles in almost all branches of medicine. The quality of printing of figures and tables is excellent and comparable to any International journal. An added advantage is nominal publication charges and monthly issue of the journal and more chances of an article being accepted for publication. Moreover being a multi-specialty journal an article concerning a particular specialty has a wider reach of readers of other related specialties also. As an author and reviewer for several years I find this Journal most suitable and highly recommend this Journal."

Dr. Mamta Gupta,
"It gives me great pleasure to be associated with JCDR, since last 2-3 years. Since then I have authored, co-authored and reviewed about 25 articles in JCDR. I thank JCDR for giving me an opportunity to improve my own skills as an author and a reviewer.
It 's a multispecialty journal, publishing high quality articles. It gives a platform to the authors to publish their research work which can be available for everyone across the globe to read. The best thing about JCDR is that the full articles of all medical specialties are available as pdf/html for reading free of cost or without institutional subscription, which is not there for other journals. For those who have problem in writing manuscript or do statistical work, JCDR comes for their rescue.
The journal has a monthly publication and the articles are published quite fast. In time compared to other journals. The on-line first publication is also a great advantage and facility to review one's own articles before going to print. The response to any query and permission if required, is quite fast; this is quite commendable. I have a very good experience about seeking quick permission for quoting a photograph (Fig.) from a JCDR article for my chapter authored in an E book. I never thought it would be so easy. No hassles.
Reviewing articles is no less a pain staking process and requires in depth perception, knowledge about the topic for review. It requires time and concentration, yet I enjoy doing it. The JCDR website especially for the reviewers is quite user friendly. My suggestions for improving the journal is, more strict review process, so that only high quality articles are published. I find a a good number of articles in Obst. Gynae, hence, a new journal for this specialty titled JCDR-OG can be started. May be a bimonthly or quarterly publication to begin with. Only selected articles should find a place in it.
An yearly reward for the best article authored can also incentivize the authors. Though the process of finding the best article will be not be very easy. I do not know how reviewing process can be improved. If an article is being reviewed by two reviewers, then opinion of one can be communicated to the other or the final opinion of the editor can be communicated to the reviewer if requested for. This will help one’s reviewing skills.
My best wishes to Dr. Hemant Jain and all the editorial staff of JCDR for their untiring efforts to bring out this journal. I strongly recommend medical fraternity to publish their valuable research work in this esteemed journal, JCDR".

"I wish to thank Dr. Hemant Jain, Editor-in-Chief Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research (JCDR), for asking me to write up few words.
Writing is the representation of language in a textual medium i e; into the words and sentences on paper. Quality medical manuscript writing in particular, demands not only a high-quality research, but also requires accurate and concise communication of findings and conclusions, with adherence to particular journal guidelines. In medical field whether working in teaching, private, or in corporate institution, everyone wants to excel in his / her own field and get recognised by making manuscripts publication.


Authors are the souls of any journal, and deserve much respect. To publish a journal manuscripts are needed from authors. Authors have a great responsibility for producing facts of their work in terms of number and results truthfully and an individual honesty is expected from authors in this regards. Both ways its true "No authors-No manuscripts-No journals" and "No journals–No manuscripts–No authors". Reviewing a manuscript is also a very responsible and important task of any peer-reviewed journal and to be taken seriously. It needs knowledge on the subject, sincerity, honesty and determination. Although the process of reviewing a manuscript is a time consuming task butit is expected to give one's best remarks within the time frame of the journal.
Salient features of the JCDR: It is a biomedical, multidisciplinary (including all medical and dental specialities), e-journal, with wide scope and extensive author support. At the same time, a free text of manuscript is available in HTML and PDF format. There is fast growing authorship and readership with JCDR as this can be judged by the number of articles published in it i e; in Feb 2007 of its first issue, it contained 5 articles only, and now in its recent volume published in April 2011, it contained 67 manuscripts. This e-journal is fulfilling the commitments and objectives sincerely, (as stated by Editor-in-chief in his preface to first edition) i e; to encourage physicians through the internet, especially from the developing countries who witness a spectrum of disease and acquire a wealth of knowledge to publish their experiences to benefit the medical community in patients care. I also feel that many of us have work of substance, newer ideas, adequate clinical materials but poor in medical writing and hesitation to submit the work and need help. JCDR provides authors help in this regards.
Timely publication of journal: Publication of manuscripts and bringing out the issue in time is one of the positive aspects of JCDR and is possible with strong support team in terms of peer reviewers, proof reading, language check, computer operators, etc. This is one of the great reasons for authors to submit their work with JCDR. Another best part of JCDR is "Online first Publications" facilities available for the authors. This facility not only provides the prompt publications of the manuscripts but at the same time also early availability of the manuscripts for the readers.
Indexation and online availability: Indexation transforms the journal in some sense from its local ownership to the worldwide professional community and to the public.JCDR is indexed with Embase & EMbiology, Google Scholar, Index Copernicus, Chemical Abstracts Service, Journal seek Database, Indian Science Abstracts, to name few of them. Manuscriptspublished in JCDR are available on major search engines ie; google, yahoo, msn.
In the era of fast growing newer technologies, and in computer and internet friendly environment the manuscripts preparation, submission, review, revision, etc and all can be done and checked with a click from all corer of the world, at any time. Of course there is always a scope for improvement in every field and none is perfect. To progress, one needs to identify the areas of one's weakness and to strengthen them.
It is well said that "happy beginning is half done" and it fits perfectly with JCDR. It has grown considerably and I feel it has already grown up from its infancy to adolescence, achieving the status of standard online e-journal form Indian continent since its inception in Feb 2007. This had been made possible due to the efforts and the hard work put in it. The way the JCDR is improving with every new volume, with good quality original manuscripts, makes it a quality journal for readers. I must thank and congratulate Dr Hemant Jain, Editor-in-Chief JCDR and his team for their sincere efforts, dedication, and determination for making JCDR a fast growing journal.
Every one of us: authors, reviewers, editors, and publisher are responsible for enhancing the stature of the journal. I wish for a great success for JCDR."

Dr. Shankar P.R.

"On looking back through my Gmail archives after being requested by the journal to write a short editorial about my experiences of publishing with the Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research (JCDR), I came across an e-mail from Dr. Hemant Jain, Editor, in March 2007, which introduced the new electronic journal. The main features of the journal which were outlined in the e-mail were extensive author support, cash rewards, the peer review process, and other salient features of the journal.
Over a span of over four years, we (I and my colleagues) have published around 25 articles in the journal. In this editorial, I plan to briefly discuss my experiences of publishing with JCDR and the strengths of the journal and to finally address the areas for improvement.
My experiences of publishing with JCDR: Overall, my experiences of publishing withJCDR have been positive. The best point about the journal is that it responds to queries from the author. This may seem to be simple and not too much to ask for, but unfortunately, many journals in the subcontinent and from many developing countries do not respond or they respond with a long delay to the queries from the authors 1. The reasons could be many, including lack of optimal secretarial and other support. Another problem with many journals is the slowness of the review process. Editorial processing and peer review can take anywhere between a year to two years with some journals. Also, some journals do not keep the contributors informed about the progress of the review process. Due to the long review process, the articles can lose their relevance and topicality. A major benefit with JCDR is the timeliness and promptness of its response. In Dr Jain's e-mail which was sent to me in 2007, before the introduction of the Pre-publishing system, he had stated that he had received my submission and that he would get back to me within seven days and he did!
Most of the manuscripts are published within 3 to 4 months of their submission if they are found to be suitable after the review process. JCDR is published bimonthly and the accepted articles were usually published in the next issue. Recently, due to the increased volume of the submissions, the review process has become slower and it ?? Section can take from 4 to 6 months for the articles to be reviewed. The journal has an extensive author support system and it has recently introduced a paid expedited review process. The journal also mentions the average time for processing the manuscript under different submission systems - regular submission and expedited review.
Strengths of the journal: The journal has an online first facility in which the accepted manuscripts may be published on the website before being included in a regular issue of the journal. This cuts down the time between their acceptance and the publication. The journal is indexed in many databases, though not in PubMed. The editorial board should now take steps to index the journal in PubMed. The journal has a system of notifying readers through e-mail when a new issue is released. Also, the articles are available in both the HTML and the PDF formats. I especially like the new and colorful page format of the journal. Also, the access statistics of the articles are available. The prepublication and the manuscript tracking system are also helpful for the authors.
Areas for improvement: In certain cases, I felt that the peer review process of the manuscripts was not up to international standards and that it should be strengthened. Also, the number of manuscripts in an issue is high and it may be difficult for readers to go through all of them. The journal can consider tightening of the peer review process and increasing the quality standards for the acceptance of the manuscripts. I faced occasional problems with the online manuscript submission (Pre-publishing) system, which have to be addressed.
Overall, the publishing process with JCDR has been smooth, quick and relatively hassle free and I can recommend other authors to consider the journal as an outlet for their work."

Abstract

Primary, mucinous cystic neoplasms are extraordinarily rare tumours of the kidney, with very few case reports in the literature. We describe here, a case of a 42-year-old female who presented with abdominal pain and a mass. Nephrectomy showed an enlarged kidney which was replaced by a large, cystic mass, which was filled with mucin and with partial destruction of the renal parenchyma. Histopathological evaluation revealed a mucinous cystadenocarcinoma .The patient was doing well during the six month follow up period. We have reported the above described unusual form of cancer and have reviewed the literature.

Mucinous adenocarcinoma, cystadenocarcinoma, renal pelvis

Introduction
Mucinous adenocarcinoma of the renal pelvis is an extremely rare tumour with very few case reports in the literature (1),(2),(3). Ackerman reported the first case in 1946 (4). Because such cases have been published as isolated case reports, the experience with and the knowledge about renal mucinous cystic neoplasms are extremely limited and they have not been recognized formally in the World Health Organisation classification of the tumours of the pelvicalyceal system (5). This type of tumour, being uncommon, a preoperative diagnosis is rarely made. We describe here, a case of primary mucinous adenocarcinoma which arose from a minor calyx. This was the first case of its kind which was encountered at our institute.

Case Report

A 42-year-old female presented with a history of dull aching abdominal pain and a mass per abdomen since 6 months. On ultrasonography (USG) and computerized tomography (CT) scan, a mixed echogenic lesion was detected in the left lumbar region in the lower pole of the left kidney , which measured 91 × 87 × 77 mm, which caused moderate hydronephrosis and dilatation of the upper ureter (Table/Fig 1). The left renal vein and the inferior vena cava were not involved. Both the ovaries and the appendix were normal radiologically. The patient was taken for surgery. Intraoperatively, in addition, multiple, hard, para-aortic lymph nodes were identified. The excision of the mass was performed by paraaortic lymphadenectomy.

Grossly, the kidney measured 15 × 8 × 6.5 cm and weighed 200 grams. The external surface was bosselated with a cystic mass in the lower pole, which measured 8 × 7 × 4 cms. On cutting the mass, the cyst was found to be filled with friable, grey white, gelatinous and necrotic material (Table/Fig 2). It arose from the minor calyx at the lower pole of the kidney. The rest of the renal parenchyma and the adrenal gland were unremarkable. The pelvis was dilated and it contained serous fluid. A total of 13 para-aortic lymph nodes were isolated, the largest measuring 2.5 cm in diameter. Multiple sections which were taken for microscopy, revealed a predominantly cystic tumour, which showed a dense fibrouscapsule (Table/Fig 3). The solid areas were composed of glands which were lined by moderately pleomorphic cuboidal to columnar cells (Table/Fig 4). These cells had vesicular nuclei and prominent nucleoli with a moderate amount of eosinophilic cytoplasm. At other places, the tumour cells were in nests, infiltrating cords individually. Extensive areas of tumour necrosis were seen. The cysts were filledwith mucinous, necrotic material. The tumour capsule showed lymphocytic infiltrates and it was not penetrated by the tumour. The adjacent renal parenchyma, the ureter, the perinephric fat, Gerota’s fascia and the adrenal gland were free from the tumour. Sections from the para-aortic nodes showed metastasis of the above tumour, with a papillary pattern and mucin pools in 9 out of the 13 lymph nodes, with no evidence of perinodal spread (Table/Fig 5). Considering the histomorphological features, a diagnosis of mucinous cystadenocarcinoma which arose from a minor calyx, with para-aortic lymph node metastasis, was made.

The post-operative course was uneventful. There has been no evidence of local recurrence, and the patient is well six months after the operation.

Discussion

Tumours of the renal pelvis are uncommon, with about 90% being transitional cell carcinomas and about 10% being squamous cell carcinomas (2). Adenocarcinomas account for about 1% of the tumour cases (2). Mucinous cystadenocarcinomas of the renal pelvis are very rare tumours, comprising less than 0.3% of all the renal pelvic tumours (3). Only approximately 100 cases of mucinous cystadenocarcinoma have been reported (1). It has been well recognised that the urothelium can undergo squamous and glandular metaplasia in response (1),(4),(5) to chronic irritation from infections, hydronephrosis or nephrolithiasis (4),(5),(6). Dysplasia and carcinoma can then develop. A possible teratomatous or coelomic epithelial origin has been postulated. The propensity of this lesion to arise in anomalous kidneys, has led to the postulation, that these tumours may arise from the sequestered renal pelvic epithelium within the parenchyma as a consequence of maldevelopment. Dietary and environmental factors have been postulated. None of the above pre-disposing factors were evident in our case.

Mucinous cystadenocarcinoma of the renal pelvis was first described in 1960 by Hasebe et al (5). The patients are often asymptomatic. Our patient had no history of gross or microscopic haematuria.

Because mucinous cystadenocarcinoma is an exceedingly rare entity, a careful search for a primary carcinoma which originated from elsewhere such as the pancreas, ovary, stomach, colon and appendix should be undertaken. In our patient, the radiological evaluation and the endoscopic samplings were negative for malignancy, elsewhere in the body.

Twenty eight cases of mucinous adenocarcinoma of the renal pelvis were reviewed by Aufderheide and Streitz who emphasized the criteria for malignancy, so that mucinous metaplasia was not confused with an adenocarcinoma (6). These criteria are:- (1) Histological evidence of architectural/cellular atypia, (2) Microscopic evidence of invasion of the renal pelvic wall, the renal parenchyma or nodal or distant metastasis and (3) Evidence of overt invasion, recurrence, or metastasis. The first two criteria were observed in the present case. Histologically, authors such as Spires et al classified the adenocarcinomas into various subtypes: tubulovillous, mucinous and papillary non-intestinal(7) (8). Grossly abundant mucin is seen in most cases, as was evident in our case. A pre-operative diagnosis is difficult to achieve. Most cases are diagnosed from the resected specimen post-operatively.

From the published data, the prognosis appears to be poor, with about 50% of the patients dying within 2 years after the surgery. Local recurrence due to both, the spillage of the tumour cellsduring surgical manipulation and the downward seeding in the distal ureter has been reported. Hence, a radical nephrectomy and complete removal of the ureter with post-operative chemotherapyis the preferred surgical treatment. Adequate precautions against the spillage should be taken intra-operatively, especially in those cases with cysts containing mucinous fluid . In our case, there was no spillage and the total excision of the left kidney and the ureter was performed.

Our case report refers to an extremely rare neoplasm. While well established pathological causes which predispose to its development exist, its exact aetiopathogenesis has not been elucidated. The diagnosis is essentially histological and is rarely suspected before surgery. Due to the very few number of cases which have been reported, these tumours represent a unique clinicopathological entity that merits inclusion in the future classification systems of the tumours of the renal pelvis.
