We would like to present a 49-year-old female patient who was presented with a vulva lesion and palpable inguinal lymph nodes who were diagnosed with disseminated multiorgan involvement of high grade diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. The F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography computerized tomography imaging showed multiple cervical, axillary, and abdominal lymph nodes, pulmonary nodules as well as gross hypermetabolic vulvar lesion.

Objective: This study evaluates the role of frozen section (FS) in determining the extent of disease during surgery.

Materials And Methods: This study retrospectively analyzed a cohort of patients diagnosed with endometrioid-type endometrial cancer between 2019 and 2022 who underwent surgical intervention. The frozen section (FS) results were compared with the final pathology reports, focusing on tumor grade, depth of myometrial invasion, cervical involvement, and tumor diameter.

Objective: There is no study that compares the diagnostic performance of ATV and ESV techniques in detecting cleft palate. We aimed to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of two ultrasound techniques: axial-transverse (ATV) and "equal sign" view (ESV), in detecting fetal cleft palate without cleft lip.

Patients And Methods: This prospective study was conducted from March 2019 to January 2022 in a tertiary referral hospital.

Pollution risk assessment of heavy metals (Pb, Cr, Cu, Ni, Zn, As) in sediment samples from 68 locations in the Gulf of Edremit, western Turkey, was performed using single and complex indices of pollution assessment approaches. The pollution indices used in the sediment analyses included pollution load index, contamination factor, contamination degree for individual metals, geoaccumulation index (Igeo), enrichment factors, toxic risk index, modified pollution index, frequency of adverse biological effects (TEL-PEL), percent incidence of biological effects (ERL-ERM), and total risk quotients. Results indicated a low degree of contamination for the entire surveyed area except moderate contamination factor for arsenic using single indices.

Article Synopsis
  • This study examined pregnancy outcomes in patients who had undergone stem cell transplantation (SCT) and investigated reasons for avoiding pregnancy despite achieving remission.
  • A total of 83 patients were analyzed, with 18 pregnancies recorded among 14 of them, while a majority of patients (69) did not become pregnant, often citing various concerns, particularly marital status.
  • Results indicated that although pregnancy complications were more common in those who had SCT, the live birth rates were comparable to those in the general population, highlighting the need for proper counseling for patients considering pregnancy.
