PVUC is known for its unique clinical features, aggressive behavior, and poor survival rates. PVUC comprises less than 3% of all bladder tumors, and its diagnosis is often difficult due to its resemblance to other forms of bladder cancer.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFIgG4 related disease (IgG4-RD) is a systemic autoimmune disease characterized by tissue invasion with IgG4-producing plasma cells, resulting in tissue dysfunction. IgG4-RD can affect the kidney in various forms, including renal mass, tubulointerstitial disease, and glomerulonephritis. IgG4-RD can mimic other autoimmune diseases and neoplasms, and as such, maintaining a high index of suspicion is the key to timely diagnosis and treatment.

Even though MPMs are rare, various associated tumors have been reported in the literature. We report the first case of triple synchronous primary malignancies: gastrointestinal stromal tumor, colon adenocarcinoma, and renal cell carcinoma.

At a previous outpatient clinic visit, her baseline serum creatinine was noted to be 87 μmol/L; on admission, serum creatinine was 1377 μmol/L. Renal biopsy results were consistent with acute cellular rejection with severe interstitial lymphoplasmacytic infiltrates and edema with no evidence of glomerular pathology, including transplant glomerulopathy.

The aims of this study were to explore and define the spectrum of histological and ultrastructural pathological changes affecting various organs in a patient with MERS-CoV infection and represent a base of MERS-CoV histopathology.
Methods And Results: We analysed the post-mortem histopathological findings and investigated localisation of viral particles in the pulmonary and extrapulmonary tissue by transmission electron microscopic examination in a 33-year-old male patient of T cell lymphoma, who acquired MERS-CoV infection.
