Accessory breast cancer cases are rarely reported in the literature. Of the reported cases, the predominantly available ones are those localized in the axillary region. We present here a very rare case of metastatic accessory breast cancer.

- - Colorectal cancer (CRC) poses a significant health challenge globally, particularly affecting survival rates in patients with metastatic CRC, prompting a study of various clinical and laboratory parameters among 188 patients with liver metastases from 2016 to 2023.
- - Key findings suggest that higher Body Mass Index (BMI) and lymphocyte counts correlate with improved survival, whereas elevated scores on the Neutrophil-Hemoglobin-Lymphocyte (NHL) index, Neutrophil-Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR), Platelet-Lymphocyte Ratio (PLR), and Systemic Immune-Inflammation Index (SII) indicate poorer outcomes; notably, liver metastasis at diagnosis significantly decreases overall survival.
Unlabelled: Cytomegalovirus (CMV), a DNA virus that belongs to the family, infects 40-100% of people. Primary/non-primary CMV infection during pregnancy could cause fetal disabilities. After primary infection, CMV causes a latent infection and resides in cells of the myeloid compartment (CD34, monocytes).

- Endometrial hyperplasia (EH) can lead to endometrial cancer (EC), with a significant percentage of patients showing EC after hysterectomy, especially when atypical cells are present.
- In postmenopausal women on anticoagulant therapy (OAT), uterine bleeding may indicate precancerous or cancerous endometrial conditions.
- The study found that women diagnosed with non-atypical endometrial hyperplasia (NAEH) who were on OAT had nearly five times the risk of having more advanced lesions compared to those not on OAT.
Rationale, Aims, And Objectives: The aim of this study was to focus attention on episiotomy practice in Romanian maternity units in order to identify factors associated with the very high rate of the procedure in Romania and to consider strategies to reduce it.
Methods: In this clustered cross-sectional study, a total of 11 863 patients were recorded in eight Romanian maternity units to assess the prevalence of episiotomy. A random effects Poisson model was used to estimate the prevalence rate in univariate and multivariate models.
