Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a challenging B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma with a poor prognosis and frequent relapses. While treatment advancements such as rituximab and Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors (BTKi) like ibrutinib have improved outcomes, novel treatments are continually sought. Zanubrutinib, a second-generation BTKi, promises reduced side effects due to its high selectivity and reduced off-target inhibition.

This study aims to explore the complexities surrounding the diagnosis, treatment, and long-term management of these lesions.
Methods: A comprehensive literature review was performed, and a detailed case study of a 56-year-old patient with a cystic, sporadic cerebellar HBL was produced.
Serous endometrial carcinoma (SEC) is a high-risk subtype of endometrial cancer. The effectiveness of multiple adjuvant therapies, namely chemotherapy (CT), radiotherapy (RT), and sequential/concurrent chemotherapy with radiotherapy (CRT), have previously been investigated. However, optimal management of early-stage SEC remains unclarified.
