Intraarticular Inflammatory Myofibroblastic Tumor of the Left Knee With ALK-CARS Fusion Detected With Archer Fusionplex Sarcoma NGS Panel: Case Report and Literature Review.

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) is a lesion of intermediate biological potential with local recurrences and rare metastases found in multiple anatomical locations. We present a case of a pure intraarticular IMT of the knee, a location that has not been previously documented, with genetic confirmation of ALK-CARS fusion detected with next-generation sequencing. A 20-year-old healthy male was admitted to the orthopedic oncology department due to several months of pain and restriction in movement of his left knee.

Splenectomy for Solitary Splenic Metastasis in Recurrent Papillary Thyroid Cancer. A Case Report and Literature Review.

Thyroid cancer is the most common endocrine malignancy, presenting with 23 500 new cases per year in the United States. About 7-23% of the patients will present recurrent metastases disease during follow-up. The classic variant of papillary carcinoma is less aggressive compared to its other variants like diffuse sclerosing, tall cell or columnar cell, and insular variants, and the sites to which this metastasizes is already well identified.
