[Scrotal ulcers revealing pulmonary and genitourinary tuberculosis].

A 76-year-old male patient with an angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma under treatment with fludarabine was referred because of scrotal ulcers, evolving for several months. Respiratory, gastrointestinal, and urinary symptoms were denied. Histopathological examination showed the presence of a chronic inflammatory process with epithelioid granulomas.

Tumor-in-tumor of the thyroid with basaloid differentiation: a lesion with a solid cell nest neoplastic component?

This study describes an encapsulated thyroid tumor having 3 different concentric appearances in a 70-year-old man. The most peripheral neoplasm showed features of a microfollicular adenoma; the intermediate lesion displayed typical features of the follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma (FVPTC); and the main, central neoplasm, showed a basaloid configuration. At variance with the other neoplasms, the latter component exhibited high mitotic activity.

Primary gastric adenosquamous carcinoma in a Caucasian woman: a case report.

Introduction: Most gastric tumors are adenocarcinomas. Primary gastric adenosquamous carcinoma is a rare malignancy, mostly associated with Asian populations. It constitutes less than one percent of all gastric carcinomas and its clinical presentation is the same as adenocarcinoma.

Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma presenting as a vertebral fracture.

Epithelioid hemagioendothelioma (EH) is a rare vascular tumor with an intermediate biological behavior between hemangioma and angiosarcoma. Vertebral location is even more rare, and because the number of reported cases of EH is small and the follow-up periods short, the best surgical treatment, the role of radiotherapy and chemotherapy, as well as the definitive prognosis are still not established. The authors report a case of EH which presented as a vertebral fracture with neurological impairment, where a percutaneous biopsy was inconclusive.

Composite adenomatoid tumor and myelolipoma of adrenal gland: report of 2 cases.

Adenomatoid tumor and myelolipoma are benign, hormonally inactive tumors that are often incidental findings in the adrenal glands. Myelolipoma is more common than adenomatoid tumor in this location but both are rare, and as yet, the pathogenesis of both remains unclear. We report 2 cases of composite adenomatoid tumor and myelolipoma, incidentally found in the adrenal gland on investigation for other diseases.

Congenital composite hemangioendothelioma: case report and reappraisal of the hemangioendothelioma spectrum.

Background: Composite hemangioendothelioma is the most recently described entity of the hemangioendothelioma (HE) spectrum. To the best of our knowledge, only eight cases of this entity have been hitherto described. All of the previous cases affected adults; local recurrences were observed in three cases, and one case showed lymph node metastasis.
