Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) encompasses rare variants like chromophobe hepatocellular carcinoma (CHCC) characterized by distinct histological features and molecular profiles.
Case Report: A 56-year-old male with chronic hepatitis C, presenting pain in the right hypochondrium. Imaging revealed a solitary liver lesion, subsequently resected and histologically diagnosed as HCC.
Memristor-based design has gained significant attention in recent years due to its potential to revolutionize various fields such as artificial intelligence, neuromorphic computing, non-volatile memory, signal processing, filtering, and radio frequency design. These emerging devices offer unique advantages such as non-volatile memory, low power consumption, and a high integration density. Their scalability and compatibility with existing fabrication processes make them an attractive option for industry adoption, paving the way for faster and more efficient architecture design.

The hash function KECCAK integrity algorithm is implemented in cryptographic systems to provide high security for any circuit requiring integrity and protect the transmitted data. Fault attacks, which can extricate confidential data, are one of the most effective physical attacks against KECCAK hardware. Several KECCAK fault detection systems have been proposed to counteract fault attacks.

Although they are benign neoplasms without metastatic potential, they are known to be locally aggressive and may invade adjacent structures leading to fatal complications.
Case Presentation: We describe the case of a 26-year-old woman who presenting with the clinical picture of acute peritonitis.

Introduction: Actinomycosis is a chronic suppurative disease caused by a filamentous, Gram-positive, facultative anaerobic bacterium Actinomyces. Abdominal actinomycosis accounts for 10 to 20% of reported Actinomyces infections and pancreatic involvement is extremely rare.
Presentation Of Case: We report the case of a 64-year-old man who presented with a 3-week history of abdominal pain, nausea, weight loss, and icterus.
Introduction: digestive stomas result from a certain number of surgical interventions. They may be temporary or definitive. The patient with stoma has potentially damaging physical and psychological problems.

The prognostic factors make it possible to recognize patients needing further treatment after resection and closer monitoring.
Objective: The aim of our study was to conduct a prognostic study to identify factors influencing survival at 5 years for patients operated of colorectal liver metastases.
Solid pseudopapillary tumour (SPT) is an unusual pancreatic neoplasm which predominantly affects young women. Less than 10% of patients with SPT in the reported literature were male. In this paper, the authors report two new cases of SPT that occurred in two male patients aged respectively 25 and 20 years old.

Methods: A multicenter case control study was conducted in Tunisia, Morocco and Algeria in collaboration with Pasteur Institutes in these countries. A total of 164 patients with HCC and 250 control subjects without hepatic diseases were included.
Objective: The goal of this study was to evaluate the preventive analgesic effectiveness of paracetamol and celecoxib in laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
Methods: Randomized prospective study was undertaken, 75 patients of class ASA I and II were included, divided into three groups: P (Paracetamol 1000 mg), C (Celecoxib 200 mg) given orally one hour before induction and group T (without preoperative analgesia). The VAS at rest and effort was noted on arrival in the recovery room then with regular intervals (T(30mn) to T(h24).
