Synchronous occurrence of papillary thyroid carcinoma and solitary fibrous tumor of the thyroid: a case report.

Background: Solitary fibrous tumors (SFT) are ubiquitous mesenchymal neoplasms of intermediate malignant potential. SFTs of the head and neck are rare, representing less than 0.1% of all SFTs.

Case Report: Incidental discovery of primary peritoneal psammocarcinoma.

Psammocarcinoma is an uncommon subtype of low-grade serous carcinoma. It is characterized by the presence of extensive psammoma bodies and can have either an ovarian or peritoneal origin. To our knowledge fewer than 30 cases of primary peritoneal psammocarcinoma (PPP) have been reported in the English literature.

Large cell neuroendocrine carcinoma of the colon: An unexpected diagnosis: A case report.

Introduction And Importance: Large cell neuroendocrine carcinomas of the colon (LCNECC) are exceptionally rare, comprising only 0.2 % of all colonic carcinomas. Their diagnosis poses a significant challenge due to their propensity to mimic colonic adenocarcinomas.

Pleomorphic adenoma of the parotid gland concomitant with tuberculosis infection: A case report and review of the literature.

Tuberculosis of the salivary glands and particularly of the parotid gland is a localization that remains rare even in endemic countries. The association of intra parotid tuberculosis with a benign tumor has been found only in rare cases in literature. A 50-year-old woman with a history of normal pressure hydrocephalus treated surgically, non-smoker, presented with a right parotid swelling progressively increasing in size for 3 years.

Differential Expression of ATM, NF-KB, PINK1 and Foxo3a in Radiation-Induced Basal Cell Carcinoma.

Research in normal tissue radiobiology is in continuous progress to assess cellular response following ionizing radiation exposure especially linked to carcinogenesis risk. This was observed among patients with a history of radiotherapy of the scalp for ringworm who developed basal cell carcinoma (BCC). However, the involved mechanisms remain largely undefined.

Prognostic Value of Immunoscore in Colorectal Carcinomas.

Immunoscore, based on the evaluation of CD3+ and CD8+ densities in the center of the tumor and its invasive margin, is currently considered as a potential prognostic factor, particularly in colorectal carcinomas. In the current study, we aimed to assess the prognostic value of immunoscore in colorectal cancer stage I to IV, through a survival study. It was a descriptive and retrospective study involving 104 cases of colorectal cancer.

Sporadic Burkitt lymphoma presenting with peritoneal lymphomatosis.

Burkitt lymphoma (BL) is a highly aggressive non-Hodgkin B-cell lymphoma. It has a doubling time of 24 h. Fortunately, it is highly sensitive to aggressive chemotherapy.

Hemangioma of the umbilical cord: A case report on a rare entity.

Several hundred cases of placental hemangiomas have been reported in the literature. However, the umbilical cord is extremely uncommon as a site of occurrence. We present a case of postnatal discovery of giant hemangioma of the umbilical cord (HUM) in a Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID 19) positive mother.

Splenogonadal fusion: A case series of two challenging diagnoses.

Splenogonadal fusion is an abnormal connection between the spleen and gonads. This rare entity can be easily confused with testicular tumors. It usually accompanies congenital malformations, such as cryptorchidism, making diagnosis more difficult.

Incidental discovery of a Hodgkin lymphoma synchronous to a papillary thyroid carcinoma.

Papillary thyroid carcinoma is the most common type of thyroid cancer and accounts for almost 89.4% of all thyroid carcinomas. Hodgkin lymphoma is a heterogeneous group of neoplasms and represents 10% of lymphomas.

Comparison between signet-ring cell carcinoma and non-signet-ring cell carcinoma of the stomach: clinicopathological parameters, epidemiological data, outcome, and prognosis-a cohort study of 123 patients from a non-endemic country.

Background: Signet-ring cell carcinoma of the stomach (SRCC) is a particular gastric cancer entity. Its incidence is increasing. Its diagnosis is pathological; it corresponds to adenocarcinoma with a majority of signet-ring cells component (> 50%).

SMARCA4-deficient thoracic sarcoma revealed by metastasis to the small intestine: a diagnostic dilemma.

SMARCA4-deficient thoracic sarcoma (SMARCA4-DTS) is a recently identified aggressive subtype of sarcoma. We present the case of a 44-year-old man who underwent a surgery for a perforated small intestine. Compued tomography scan revealed a tissular mediastino-pulmonary mass.

Atypical solid pseudopapillary tumor of the pancreas in a 14-year-old.

Diagnostic approach can be difficult in pediatric pancreatic masses. Our case shows that even though radiologic appearance was not conclusive, surgery remains the main treatment in resectable masses especially in children.

Primary and isolated cutaneous precursor B-lymphoblastic lymphoma in an infant.

Cutaneous lesions may represent the initial sign of various neoplasms in children, including histiocytosis, neuroblastomas, and lymphomas. Primary cutaneous lymphoblastic lymphomas are rare and involve mostly the B-cell phenotype. Herein, we report a case of isolated, primary B-lymphoblastic lymphoma in a 7-month-old infant and emphasize the importance of early diagnosis.

Myxofibrosarcoma of the leg: A diagnostic challenge.

We should keep in mind slowly growing malignancies when the lesion is located close to the synovial regions of the extremities. The diagnosis of certainty of myxofibrosarcoma is histological and is based on the demonstration of the myxoid matrix, fibroblastic cells with a curvilinear arrangement of the vessels.

An unusual case of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma complicating a Crohn's disease.

Clinicians should keep in mind that Crohn's disease may be complicated by neoplasia such as adenocarcinomas or lymphomas, especially if the disease duration is long and the patient is under immunosuppressive therapy.
