Background: The SARS-CoV-2 invades the cells by attachment of virus spike proteins (S1, S2) to cell membrane and engages angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), which is highly expressed in the epithelium of cerebral vasculature. Here, we describe a patient with encephalitis following SARS-CoV-2 infection.
Case Presentation: A 77-year-old male patient presented with mild cough and coryza lasting for eight days without a prior history of underlying disease or neurologic disorder.
Lymphoblastic lymphoma is a group of non-Hodgkin lymphomas that account for approximately 2% of all lymphomas. This is a report of a case of a young girl presenting with a solitary scalp mass which was resected. Histopathological examination of the mass along with bone marrow analysis revealed primary cutaneous B-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma.

- Neurofollicular hamartoma (NFH) is a rare benign skin tumor characterized by spindle cells and is primarily found on the face without true neural differentiation, often referred to as spindle cell predominant trichodiscoma (SCPT).
- A case study presented a 40-year-old male with NFH along with basal cell carcinoma, where NFH's mesenchymal components strongly expressed S-100 protein, raising discussions about its histological features and classification.
- The diagnosis of NFH relies on its unique morphology and S-100 protein expression, but inconsistent findings on S-100 in NFH suggest that more research is needed to clarify the tumor's classification and characteristics.
