Pulmonary Hyalinizing Granuloma: Case Report and Discussion of Diagnostic Challenges and Terminology.

Pulmonary hyalinizing granuloma (PHG) is a rare, benign condition characterized by slow-growing pulmonary nodules, often mimicking malignant lesions radiologically. Its pathogenesis is unclear but is thought to result from an exaggerated immune response to persistent antigenic stimuli. This report presents a case of a 71-year-old male with PHG, incidentally detected during imaging for acute appendicitis.

Xanthogranuloma in the External Auditory Canal in Childhood, an Unexpected Lesion.

Pedunculated lesions in the external auditory canal present a broad differential diagnosis. It is crucial to rule out malignant neoplasms and consider the possibility of xanthogranulomas, which are very rare in this location. Management is determined by associated complications, and otolaryngologists must consider this for appropriate treatment.

Rare primary cardiac myxofibrosarcoma in adolescence: Diagnostic challenges and surgical insights.

This article presents a unique case of primary myxofibrosarcoma, an exceptionally rare cardiac neoplasm, in a 16-year-old girl. With fewer than 40 documented cases, this tumor's occurrence in adolescence is particularly uncommon. The patient presented with right-sided paresthesia and subsequent right hemiparesis and dysarthria, along with bilateral pleural effusion.

Machine Learning Quantification of Intraepithelial Tumor-Infiltrating Lymphocytes as a Significant Prognostic Factor in High-Grade Serous Ovarian Carcinomas.

The prognostic and predictive role of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) has been demonstrated in various neoplasms. The few publications that have addressed this topic in high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC) have approached TIL quantification from a semiquantitative standpoint. Clinical correlation studies, therefore, need to be conducted based on more accurate TIL quantification.

Primary malignant melanoma of the colon and the importance of an adequate anatomopathological analysis.

Primary malignant melanoma of the colon is an extremely rare tumor due to the absence of melanoblasts in this segment of the digestive tract. We report the case of a patient presenting an ulcerated lesion with a neoplastic appearance in the dentate line during a coloscopy. After chemotherapy and radiotherapy, surgical amputation was performed.

"Deciduoid" Change in Uterine Leiomyomas in Pregnancy: Aberrant Expression of Sex Cord Markers Inhibin and Calretinin.

Leiomyomas are common hormone-responsive uterine neoplasms which can exhibit a variety of morphologic changes secondary to hormonal agents such as progestogens. They may increase in size during pregnancy as a result of hormonal stimulation but surprisingly the morphologic features of leiomyomas in pregnancy are not well described in the literature. In this report, we describe the morphologic features of a series of 29 uterine leiomyomas in pregnancy.

Pancreatic intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm evolving into adenocarcinoma. Continual follow-up is necessary.

We report a 62-year-old female with chronic pancreatitis after three episodes of severe acute pancreatitis. In 2008, an uneven main pancreatic duct (MPD) of 16 mm was found during an abdominal ultrasound. The follow-up was not continued until 2020, when a dilation of 27 mm of the MPD was discovered at magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Unusual presentation of jejunal adenocarcinoma and ovarian metastasis.

It is rare to find a small bowel tumour presenting as intestinal obstruction. This type of cancer is an extremely unusual condition often misdiagnosed until late stages. We report the case of a patient with persistent vomiting secondary to an obstructing jejunal adenocarcinoma not related to intestinal bowel disease.

Unusual presentation of biliopancreatic cancer as primary retroperitoneal tumor.

Primary retroperitoneal tumors are little-known neoplasias and consequently, difficult to diagnose. We report an extremely unusual case of a biliopancreatic adenocarcinoma with retroperitoneal localization simulating a primary retroperitoneal tumor. As far as we know, there are no similar cases published up to date.

Metastasis of Uveal Melanoma in Bladder: Presentation of Two Cases and Review of the Literature.

Objective: Secondary urinary bladder tumors account for 2% of neoplasms in this location. Melanoma is the neoplasm that most frequently produces distant metastases in the bladder. Despite its low prevalence, it should be a possible diagnosis to consider facing urological symptoms, due to the existence of targeted therapies.

Perianal Paget's disease.

The incidence of extramammary Paget's disease (EMPD) is very low. It is very important to distinguish between primary Paget's disease and secondary to another process. An 85-year-old man consulted for the presence of an erythematous plaque located in the anal and gluteal area, confirming Paget cells in the biopsy.

A rare gastrointestinal tumor: primary gastric melanoma.

Primary gastric melanoma is an exceptional tumour with less than 20 cases described in the literature, as its origin is not entirely clear as the presence of melanocytes in the stomach has not been demonstrated. Symptomatology is non-specific, which prevents its early detection, and it is diagnosed in late stages. We present the case of a patient who was admitted to our hospital for vomiting in coffee grounds with analytical and haemodynamic repercussions.
