Background: Tumor budding, defined as small clusters of tumor cells at the invasive front of carcinomas, has gained attention as a potential prognostic marker in various cancers. This study aimed to evaluate the utility of tumor budding as a histopathological marker in breast cancer and compare it to traditional prognostic markers such as histological grading, tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) staging, and molecular subtypes.
Methods: A prospective, cross-sectional study was conducted over two years (June 2022 to May 2024) in the Department of Pathology at Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College, Wardha.
Sinonasal carcinoma is a rare but aggressive malignancy arising from the nasal cavity and paranasal sinuses. We present a case of a 40-year-old female who presented with a three-month history of headache, diminution of vision, and proptosis. Imaging studies revealed soft tissue density with bony erosion and extraconal extension in the left orbit.

We report the case of a 53-year-old male presenting with right upper and lower limb weakness, headaches, blurred vision, and tingling sensations, leading to the diagnosis of central neurocytoma with associated hydrocephalus. Initial evaluation, including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and subsequent computed tomography (CT) scans, revealed characteristic features of the tumor.
