Myeloid sarcoma with plasmacytoid dendritic cell-like proliferation associated with IKZF1, ETV6 and DNMT3A mutations.

The classification of clonal plasmacytoid dendritic cell (pDC) proliferation associated with myeloid neoplasms remains a topic of ongoing debate. Although the fifth edition of the World Health Organization classification classifies clonal pDC proliferation into two categories, it is unclear whether this classification adequately captures the complexities of clonal pDC pathogenesis. We present a clinical case featuring myeloid sarcoma with pDC-like cells in cervical lymph nodes and bone marrow (BM).

Bifocal germ cell tumor of pineal germinoma and neurohypophyseal embryonal carcinoma: illustrative case.

Background: Bifocal germ cell tumors, with primarily identical tissue composition, occur concurrently in the neurohypophyseal and pineal regions.

Observations: A 16-year-old male patient exhibited increased intracranial pressure symptoms, with concurrent tumors in the pineal and neurohypophyseal regions, causing obstructive hydrocephalus. His serum human chorionic gonadotropin level was elevated, measuring 506.

A Collision Tumor of Pit-1/SF-1-positive Double Pituitary Adenoma and a Craniopharyngioma Coexisting with Graves' Disease.

Double or multiple pituitary adenomas expressing different types of transcription factors and collision tumors of pituitary adenomas and craniopharyngiomas are rare. In this report, we present a case of pituitary adenoma of two different cell populations, Pit-1 and SF-1, and an adenoma and craniopharyngioma collision tumor with coexisting Graves' disease. The patient had a 16-mm pituitary tumor with pituitary stalk calcification and optic chiasm compression but no visual dysfunction.

Late-diagnosed cesarean scar pregnancy resulting in unexpected placenta accreta spectrum necessitating hysterectomy.

Cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP) is a rare complication involving the implantation of the gestational sac in a cesarean delivery scar. The authors report a case of unexpected placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) caused by late diagnosed CSP, necessitating emergent hysterectomy. A 28-year-old Japanese woman with two previous cesarean deliveries presented to our hospital at 11 weeks of gestation with abnormal transvaginal ultrasound findings obtained at another hospital;however, transabdominal ultrasound revealed that the fetus was already present in the uterine cavity at this time.
