Giant phyllodes tumor of the breast: A case report.

Phyllodes tumors of the breast are rare fibroepithelial neoplasms that account for less than 1% of all breast tumors. They tend to affect middle-aged women, who present with a rapidly growing, palpable mass. Here we present a case of a 34-year-old female surrogate mother without any reported personal or family history of breast cancer who presented with a rapidly growing left breast mass, pathologically proven to be a phyllodes tumor.

A massive retroperitoneal mature teratoma from a "burned-out" testicular teratoma and seminoma.

Germ cell tumors are the most common nonhematologic malignancy of young men which often present with metastasis to the retroperitoneum, however a primary retroperitoneal mass should also be considered. The case presented herein reports a 42-year-old male presenting with a massive heterogenous retroperitoneal mass determined to be a mature cystic teratoma. Further investigation revealed a multifocal right testicular mass containing both a viable pure seminoma and a fibrous scar demonstrating germ cell neoplasia in situ thus representing the rare phenomenon of a "burned-out" mixed germ cell testicular tumor.

Pulmonary aspergillosis and mucormycosis in a patient with COVID-19.

Invasive pulmonary mucormycosis and aspergillosis are rare, life-threatening fungal infections. Most documented cases have been reported in patients with diabetes mellitus, neutropenia, or treatment with corticosteroids. Both infections have been recognized as secondary complications of COVID-19, especially among critically ill patients.
