An unusual case of aggressive endometrial adenocarcinoma metastasis to the clivus: illustrative case.

Background: Though endometrial carcinomas are a relatively common cancer of the female genitourinary tract, they rarely metastasize. Similarly, clival metastases make up a tiny fraction of all brain metastases. To the authors' knowledge, an endometrial carcinoma clival metastasis has never been described in the literature; therefore, the authors present the following unusual case of a 69-year-old female with a history of an initially grade 2 endometrial adenocarcinoma that metastasized to her clivus.

Accuracy of ultrasound in predicting thyroid malignancy: a comparative analysis of the ACR TI-RADS and ATA risk stratification systems.

Objective: Thyroid nodules are very common in clinical practice, and ultrasound has long been used as a screening tool for their evaluation. Several risk assessment systems based on ultrasonography have been developed to stratify the risk of malignancy and determine the need for fine-needle aspiration in thyroid nodules, including the American Thyroid Association (ATA) system and the American College of Radiology Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (ACR TI-RADS). The aim of this study was to compare the performance of the ATA and ACR TI-RADS systems in predicting malignancy in thyroid nodules based on the nodules' final histopathology reports.

UTILITY OF THE 2023 BETHESDA SYSTEM AUS SUBCATEGORIZATION ON THYROID ASPIRATES.

The Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology (TBSRTC) is widely used for the standardized reporting of thyroid fine-needle aspiration (FNA) cytology. The 2023 revision of TBSRTC introduced specific subcategories for the classification of atypia of undetermined significance (AUS). This study tests the association between AUS subtypes and malignant diagnoses, namely AUS-nuclear atypia and AUS-other, in archived thyroid - FNA specimens with atypia from 2018-2022 at King Abdulaziz University Hospital.

Medical Students' Impression of Surgical Pathology as a Career in Saudi Arabia.

Background And Objectives: Surgicalanatomical pathologists study diseases to provide accurate diagnoses, identify pathogens, and participate in treatment. However, there is a need for more surgical pathologists worldwide due to low recruitment rates. One contributing factor is the medical students' interest and knowledge about surgical pathology as a career option.

Traumatic CSF rhinorrhea associated with COVID-19 testing: a case series and systematic review.

Background: This report analyzes traumatic anterior skull base CSF leaks following nasopharyngeal swab testing for detection of SARS-CoV-2 in the largest case series to date, combined with a systematic literature review.

Methods: Retrospective multi-institutional case-series of traumatic anterior skull base CSF leak with clear antecedent history of COVID-19 swab was completed. A comprehensive search of databases was performed for the systematic literature review.
