Background: Melanocytic tumors with perineuriomatous differentiation may pose diagnostic challenges. This study explores characteristics of perineuriomatous melanocytic nevi, an entity merging features of perineurioma and melanocytic nevi. The aim is to elucidate histopathological features of perineuriomatous nevi to allow dermatopathologists to recognize them and differentiate them from other spindle cell lesions.

The utility of augmenting traditional prostate-specific antigen (PSA)-based screening measures with multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in this population is not yet known.
Objective: To evaluate MRI-based screening in comparison with traditional PSA-based screening among individuals at an elevated genetic risk for prostate cancer.
Background: Megacystis-microcolon-intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome (MMIHS) is a lethal congenital disorder characterized by a large, non-obstructed bladder, microcolon, and lack of proper peristalsis.
Materials And Methods: Five cases of MMIHS were identified, confirmed histologically and were predominantly female (F:M, 4:1). DNA sequencing was also performed.
