We performed the next-generation sequencing (NGS) analysis of a rare grade 1 brain meningioma (angiomatous type) and a common grade 1 spinal meningioma (psammomatous type) and compared their mutation profiling. The data were analysed using the Ion Reporter 5.16 programme (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA).

The present study aimed to determine genomic changes in sporadic intracranial hemangioblastoma (HBL), and the mutation patterns were analyzed using next-generation DNA sequencing (NGS). In this NGS analysis of the HBL tumor, 67 variants of 41 genes were identified. Of these, 64 were single-nucleotide variants (SNVs), two were exonic insertions and deletions (INDEL), and one was an intronic INDEL.

Arterial tortuosity syndrome (ATS; OMIM #208050) is a sporadic, autosomal, recessively inherited genetic disorder. ATS primarily causes the tortuosity and elongation of large and medium-sized arteries; however, other skeletal manifestations include dysmorphic features, such as hyperextensible skin, hypermobile joints, and congenital contractures. The present article reports the case of a female neonate, who, at birth, exhibited abnormal facial features, hypermobility of joints, and abnormal physical appearance.

Background: Mammography is a method widely used for the diagnosis of breast disorders in women and may help detect breast cancer in its early stages. Male breast cancer often remains undiagnosed or is poorly controlled until serious complications arise; therefore, the use of screening methods is needed to help with early diagnosis.

Methods: From a total of 1,667 registered mammography cases screened, 17 male breast disease cases were included in this study.

Objectives: Primary intracranial myxopapillary ependymomas (MPE) are very rare. In order to determine genomic changes in an intracranial MPE, we analyzed its mutation patterns by next generation DNA sequencing.

Methods: Tumor DNA was sequenced using an Ion PI v3 chip on Ion Proton instrument and the data were analyzed by Ion Reporter 5.

Background: Symplastic hemangioma is a benign superficial abnormal buildup of blood vessels, with morphological features which can mimic a pseudo malignancy. A few cases have been reported in the literature. We report here, a unique case of calvarial symplastic hemangioma, which is the first case in the calvarial region.
