Context: Barrett's esophagus is a common pathological condition in patients with gastro-esophageal reflux disease.
Objective: The aim of this study was to compare endoscopic diagnosis versus histological confirmation.
Design: Cross-sectional.
Introduction: The widespread use of improved mammographic techniques has led to increased detection of nonpalpable breast masses. Preoperative localization is important for reducing false negative results and decreasing the size of tissue resection needed and the resulting breast deformity. We used ultrasound guided methylen blue injection in the mass for localization of breast masses that were clinically nonpalpable but detectable by ultrasound.

- The study investigates the role of progesterone receptors (PRs) in salivary gland tumors, specifically pleomorphic adenoma (PA) and adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC), due to their morphological similarities with breast tumors.
- The researchers conducted a cross-sectional analysis on 29 tissue samples to assess PR expression, finding negative staining in most ACC and PA samples, with minimal presence in normal salivary tissues.
- The conclusion reveals that despite the importance of progesterone in normal gland function, it does not contribute to tumor development or response to hormone therapy in PA and ACC, nor is there a link between PR expression and tumor grade in ACC.
