А case of a mucocele of the appendix - A diagnostic and therapeutic dilemma.

Introduction And Importance: Mucocele of the appendix is a rare pathology with an estimated incidence of less than 1 % of all appendectomies. Here is a report of a 67-year-old Bulgarian female, diagnosed with a low-grade appendiceal mucinous neoplasm (LAMN) after immunohistochemical analysis, which changed the therapeutic strategy.

Case Presentation: We present a case of a patient, initially admitted to the Gastroenterology Department due to complaints of dyspepsia and intermittent watery diarrhea.

Carbamazepine-induced drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) syndrome: report of four cases and brief review.

Drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) syndrome is a rare but severe drug reaction, most commonly to aromatic anticonvulsants with a delayed onset, variable clinical presentation and protracted course. The exact incidence of DRESS syndrome is not known because of the variability in clinical presentation, lack of strict diagnostic criteria and universally accepted nomenclature. We report four cases of DRESS syndrome associated with the use of carbamazepine.

Nonspecific granulomatous prostatitis with calculous ductal ectasia and extensive Paneth cell-like epithelial metaplasia. Case report.

We present a case of nonspecific granulomatous prostatitis in combination with calculous ductal ectasia and extensive epithelial Paneth cell-like metaplasia in a TURP-specimen. Our report highlights the importance of calculous ductal obstruction and stasis of secretions in the etiopathogenesis of this type of prostatitis. The observed extensive Paneth cell-like metaplastic change in adjacent epithelial cells most likely represents a phenotypic adaptive mechanism directed against foreign antigens and nondegradable lipids in the stagnant intraluminal debris.
