Perioperative, oncological, and survival outcomes of robotic radical cystectomy with urinary diversion in females: A single-center retrospective observational study.

Introduction: Robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) is a standrad approach for surgical management of bladder cancer. Currently, most literature on RARC is in men, possibly due to the higher incidence of bladder cancer in males. We reviewed the perioperative, oncological and survival outcomes in 41 women who underwent RARC by a single surgeon at a tertiary health-care center.

Mutational Analysis of EGFR Mutations in Non-Small Cell Lung Carcinoma-An Indian Perspective of 212 Patients.

Lung cancer is the world's leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is one of the critical oncogenes and plays a significant role in tumor proliferation and metastasis. Patients with sensitizing mutations in the EGFR gene have better clinical outcomes when treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI).

A Difficult Case of Pyrexia of Unknown Origin.

This is the case of a 15-y-old boy who presented with fever and back pain with MRI features of spondylitis. A CT-guided vertebral biopsy showed acute and chronic inflammatory cells and grew Pseudomonas aeruginosa on aerobic culture. The child was treated for 2 wk with antibiotics with no response.

Neonatal respiratory distress produced by a nasopharyngeal glioma with a persistent craniopharyngeal canal.

Nasopharyngeal gliomas are congenital masses of heterotopic glial tissue. Our case report describes an infant with respiratory distress produced by a nasopharyngeal glioma with a persistent craniopharyngeal canal (CPC). The identification of CPC is important for medical and surgical management of possible pituitary dysfunction and preventing operative and post-operative complications.

An Overview of Liver Transplant Pathology: Data from a Tertiary Referral Centre in Western India.

Introduction And Aim: 1. Study of liver explants - Etiologic types of end-stage chronic liver disease (ESCLD) and acute liver failure (ALF) in adults and children. 2.

Immunoglobin G4-related disease: Two case reports and review of the recent literature.

IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a new, multiorgan and constantly evolving disease characterized by IgG4-positive plasma cells in the affected organ. This disease often affects the elderly. The pancreas is the main target organ affected, with almost all organs in the body being affected.

Myxoid lipoblastoma.

A rapidly growing soft tissue mass in the axilla of an infant raises the suspicion of a lipoblastoma or a liposarcoma. Excisional/incisional biopsy is vital in confirming the diagnosis and hence avoiding aggressive extirpation. This case report highlights the role of histopathology and immunohistochemistry as the gold standard in differentiating a lipoblastoma from a liposarcoma.

Idiopathic myelofibrosis in an infant.

Idiopathic Myelofibrosis (MF) is an extremely rare condition in children. It has a very variable clinical spectrum. Cases of secondary myelofibrosis associated with Vitamin D deficiency and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus have been reported from India .

Primary non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of the salivary gland: a spectrum of lymphoepithelial sialadenitis, low-grade B-cell lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue with transformation to high-grade lymphoma.

Lymphoid infiltrates of the salivary gland can be either reactive or neoplastic. The reactive lesion, lymphoepithelial sialadenitis (LESA) may be associated with Sjogren's syndrome (SS) or may occur as an isolated salivary gland enlargement. Patients with LESA/SS have a particularly high risk of subsequently developing lymphoma, which is a low-grade mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) type lymphoma of the salivary gland.

Primary aneurysmal cyst: bone type in the breast.

A 60-year-old women presented with one month's history of a large breast lump. On examination she had irregular hard mass occupying the central and outer quadrants of the right breast with no palpable lymph nodes. Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) diagnosis was a benign stromal lesion.

Self inflicted, bilateral oleogranuloma of the breast: report of a bizarre case.

A 30-year-old male was admitted with bilateral painful breast enlargement of 6 months duration. There was a past history of surgery for similar bilateral swellings, which was then diagnosed as fibrocystic disease. On examination both breasts were firm to hard, tender & adherent to deeper structures.

Granulocytic sarcoma of breast: an aleukemic presentation.

Granulocytic sarcoma is a rare extramedullary tumor composed of immature myeloid cells. It is usually associated with leukemia or other myeloproliferative disorders but can also occur without overt hematologic diseases. The breast is an uncommon site of presentation and requires a high index of suspicion for diagnosis.
