Anal leiomyosarcoma: A case report and review of literature.

Introduction: Leiomyosarcoma is a malignant neoplasm that is derived from smooth muscle cells in walls of small blood vessels or branch of the inferior vena cava, the uterus and the gastrointestinal tract. Different treatment options are present for the treatment of LMS. However, due to the rarity of LMS, the optimal treatment option is still to be discussed and determined.

Membrane Targeting and GTPase Activity of Rab7 Are Required for Its Ubiquitination by RNF167.

Rab7 is a GTPase that controls late endosome and lysosome trafficking. Recent studies have demonstrated that Rab7 is ubiquitinated, a post-translational modification mediated by an enzymatic cascade. To date, only one ubiquitin E3 ligase and one deubiquitinase have been identified in regulating Rab7 ubiquitination.

Malignant carcinoma and skin melanoma neoplasms concomitantly in the thyroid.

Malignant melanomas metastatic to the thyroid gland are uncommon. Based on microscopy and DNA methylation profile, we report a rare coexistence of neoplasms in the thyroid, presumably in our case, with relapse-free condition on adjuvant therapy.

Solitary intestinal neurofibroma with no associated systemic syndromes causing intussusception: Case report and literature review.

Introduction: The isolated presence of neurofibromatous lesions in the gastrointestinal tract, with no associated systemic syndromes, is a rarely reported clinical entity.

Presentation Of Case: A 48-year-old lady, with no history of neurofibromatosis or other systemic disease, presented with small bowel obstruction secondary to an ileo-ileal intussusception induced by an isolated ileal neurofibromatous mass. The patient underwent a segmental enterectomy and after a smooth recovery, she was put on a long-term follow-up schedule.

Duodenal duplication cyst in a 52-year-old man: A challenging diagnosis and management.

Introduction: Duodenal duplication is a rare congenital malformation. Although more frequent in childhood, it may rarely be observed in adulthood. Pre-operative diagnosis can be difficult.
