Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a very heterogeneous disease and refers to a subgroup of breast cancer. The purpose of this study was to describe the clinical, pathological and molecular features of TNBC. We conducted a retrospective analysis of 56 cases of TNBC diagnosed in the Department of Pathology at the Farhat Hached University Hospital over a period of three years (2018-2020).

Photodistributed pustular acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis revealing an acute myeloid leukemia.

Sweet syndrome is a rare inflammatory dermatosis that can be associated with various diseases, including leukemias. Physicians should be aware that a photodistributed clinical presentation of a pustular SS may reveal underlying malignancies, particularly hemopathies. If the hemopathy is known, recurrence lesions should be suspected of a relapse.

A missed psoas abscess diagnosis: A forensic case report.

Psoas abscess is a rare pathology that usually presents with non-specific signs and rare clinical features. These characteristics can delay the diagnosis leading to complications and death. We report a forensic autopsy case of a 65-year-old male, alcoholic, smoker, with a history of hypertension, and urinary infection, who presented to the emergency room for anorexia and consciousness disorder.

Occurrence of Textile Dyes and Metals in Tunisian Textile Dyeing Effluent: Effects on Oxidative Stress Status and Histological Changes in Balb/c Mice.

Although it is known that textile wastewater contains highly toxic contaminants whose effects in humans represent public health problems in several countries, studies involving mammal species are scarce. This study was aimed to evaluate the toxicity profile of 90-days oral administration of textile dyeing effluent (TDE) on oxidative stress status and histological changes of male mice. The TDE was collected from the textile plant of Monastir, Tunisia and evaluated for the metals, aromatic amines, and textile dyes using analytical approaches.

A rare pediatric renal tumor: Cystic partially differentiated nephroblastoma.

The histological features of cystic partially differentiated nephroblastoma (CPDN) require a thorough sampling of the surgical specimen and the application of immunohistochemical techniques to confirm the diagnosis.

Basal cell adenoma of the parotid gland: A rare entity.

Basal cell adenoma (BCA) is a rare benign salivary gland tumor accounting for only 1-2% of all salivary gland tumors. We report a case of a 50-year-old man presenting a BCA of the parotid gland. A pleomorphic adenoma was initially suspected based on radiological features and fine needle aspiration cytology findings (FNAC).

Colorectal barotrauma following compressed air spray to the perineum.

Colorectal injuries caused by high-pressure air compressors are rare and reported especially among industrial workers. They may appear because of intended or accidental injury. In the present paper, we report a case of colorectal injuries due to air insufflation from a distance towards the anus with the clothes on, as a means of a practical joke.

Human papillomavirus-related multiphenotypic sinonasal carcinoma: a clinico-pathological dilemma case report.

Human papillomavirus (HPV)-related multiphenotypic sinonasal carcinoma (HMSC), is a new entity that is restricted to the sinonasal tract and is associated with high-risk HPV. This tumor is suggested to have an indolent behavior with a better prognosis than other carcinomas. We report a unique case of HMSC with a locally aggressive behavior.

Small bowel and lung histiocytic sarcoma revealed by acute peritonitis: A case report with review of literature.

Introduction And Importance: Histiocytic sarcoma (HS) is a rare malignant neoplasm showing morphologic and immunohistochemical features of histiocytes. It is characterized typically by extranodal presentation and a poor clinical course, particularly in cases with disseminated disease.

Case Presentation: This report documents a case of bifocal and aggressive HS in small bowel and lung revealed by acute peritonitis in a 63-year-old man.

Pleomorphic Adenoma of the Submandibular Gland in a 10-Year-Old Child: A Case Report.

We report the case of a 10-year-old girl with a painless slowly growing mass that had developed over the course of 2 years in the left submandibular area. Physical examination revealed a firm painless submandibular mass with no other associated signs. Ultrasound graphics were in favor of a sebaceous cyst.

Ossifying fibromyxoid tumor of soft tissue: A case report with review of literature.

Introduction And Importance: The ossifying fibromyxoid tumor of soft tissue is a rare tumor of intermediate differentiation and uncertain lineage that occurs in adults mostly in the extremities and the trunk.

Presentation Of Case: we present a case of 57 year-old man presenting with a right scapular mass. It was a subcutaneous and painless mass that was largely excised.

In vivo toxicities of the hospital effluent in Mahdia Tunisia.

Hospital effluent (HE) is one of the most important sources of pharmaceuticals released into the environment. This kind of pollution is a recognized problem for both human health and aquatic life. Consequently, in the present study, we assessed the effects of untreated hospital effluent on mice via biochemical and histopathological determinations.

Cystic form of Actinomycotic mycetoma: A new case with a diagnostic challenge.

Mycetoma, commonly known as Madura foot, is a chronic granulomatous infection caused either by fungi (eumycetoma) known as actinomycete. This disease occurs preferentially in young adults, and it affects the foot in particular. We report a Tunisian case of mycetoma occurring in an old patient, particular by its cystic presentation.

Multifactorial Screening Reveals New Insight into Early Cadmium Exposure and Garlic Interactions in Dicentrarchus labrax.

Environmental pollutants and especially metal trace elements remain an unmitigated threat to the overall life support system. Their chemical stability and accumulation pattern in the ecosystem make them a persistent hazard. This study aims to characterize the early cadmium (Cd) histological and hematological alterations and their corresponding plasma indicators in the Mediterranean sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax).

A case of giant sarcomatoid carcinoma ex-pleomorphic adenoma of the parotid gland.

Carcinoma ex pleomorphic adenoma is a rare malignant parotid neoplasm arising from primary or recurrent benign pleomorphic adenoma. Histologically, it can be sub-classified by upwards of eight different variations (e.g.

Cavernous hemangiomas represent the most common benign tumors affecting the liver. They are more often asymptomatic and usually diagnosed through radiological examinations performed for other reasons. When there are symptomatic, they may cause digestive disorders such as abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, or a palpable mass.

Sudden Death Due to a Cerebellopontine Angle Epidermoid Cyst: Case Report.

Epidermoid cyst of the brain is a rare benign embryonal tumor. It has an excellent prognosis because of its slow-growing nature. Clinically, symptoms are variable and depend on the location of the cyst.
