An Interesting Rare Case Report of Primary Amelanotic Melanoma With Distant Metastasis.

Anorectal malignant melanoma (ARMM) is a rare and highly aggressive type of melanoma that originates in the anorectal area. It represents a small fraction of all melanoma cases and is often associated with poor prognosis due to its late presentation and challenging treatment options. Rectal malignant melanoma typically presents with symptoms such as rectal bleeding, pain, and obstructive symptoms.

Benign Giant Phyllodes Tumours Presenting as Fungating Breast Masses.

Breast masses presenting as fungating growths usually represent advanced malignancy. One remarkable exception is a benign phyllodes tumour. These tumours of stromal origin often exhibit rapid growth, resulting in pressure necrosis at the summit of the tumor causing fungation.

LncRNA NEAT1/miR-146a-5p Axis Restores Normal Angiogenesis in Diabetic Foot Ulcers by Targeting mafG.

Non-healing lesions in diabetic foot ulcers are a significant effect of poor angiogenesis. Epigenetic regulators, mainly lncRNA and miRNA, are recognized for their important roles in disease progression. We deciphered the regulation of lncRNA NEAT1 through the miR-146a-5p/mafG axis in the progression of DFU.

Laparoscopic totally extraperitoneal exploration of intra-abdominal testis, orchidectomy and inguinal hernia repair in an adult patient.

The presence of undescended testis predisposes to the development of an inguinal hernia due to the persistent processus vaginalis. This coexistence is not very rare in the paediatric population. Here, we report an adult man who presented with inguinal hernia and an intra-abdominal testis and successfully underwent an extended totally extraperitoneal (e-TEP) approach for extraperitoneal exploration of the testis in the left iliac fossa, and orchidectomy along with inguinal hernia repair.

MicroRNA-27b Impairs Nrf2-Mediated Angiogenesis in the Progression of Diabetic Foot Ulcer.

Nuclear factor erythroid-2-related factor 2 () is a stress-activated transcription factor regulating antioxidant genes, and a deficiency thereof, slowing lymphangiogenesis, has been reported in diabetic foot ulcer (DFU). The mode of regulation in DFU has been less explored. Emerging studies on miRNA-mediated target regulation show miRNA to be the leading player in the pathogenesis of the disease.

Triple Assessment in Diagnosis of Thyroid Nodules and Its Comparison With Histopathology.

Background:  Thyroid nodules are more common than previously realised, and the rate of prevalence is hugely impacted by the method of detection and their easy access. No single test is sufficient to access the thyroid nodule at any given time. Hence this necessitates the need for clinicians to use an evidence-based protocol for their assessment and diagnosis.
