An autopsy case of adult-onset neuronal intranuclear inclusion disease with perivascular preservation in cerebral white matter.

Neuronal intranuclear inclusion disease (NIID) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by appearance of eosinophilic hyaline intranuclear inclusions. While the main symptoms of adult-onset NIID are dementia or limb weakness, some patients present with encephalitic episodes and transient neurological symptoms. The pathophysiology of these acute, transient symptoms, however, remains unknown.

Cellular cannibalism and consequent thrombocytopenia in a patient with bone marrow metastasis of malignant pleural mesothelioma: A case report.

Cellular cannibalism is a tumor activity where a cell is engulfed by another cell. This process promotes tumor cell survival under unfavorable conditions. The current report describes an extremely rare case of thrombocytopenia resulting from cellular cannibalism in a patient with bone marrow metastasis due to malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM).

The First Autopsy Case of Fatal Acute Cardiac Failure after Administration of Carfilzomib in a Patient with Multiple Myeloma.

Carfilzomib (CFZ) improves progression-free survival for patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (MM) but has shown higher frequency of cardiovascular adverse events (CVAEs) than other proteasome inhibitors. We report the first autopsy case of acute death from cardiac failure shortly after administration of carfilzomib. A 74-year-old female was diagnosed with IgA MM after a 2-year period of smoldering MM.

[Lymphocyte-depleted classical Hodgkin lymphoma accompanied by myelofibrosis].

A 91-year-old male with fever of unknown origin was referred to our department. 18F-FDG PET/CT scan revealed a high FDG uptake in abdominal lymph nodes and multiple bones. The bone marrow biopsy showed fibrosis and atypical megakaryocytes, which were consistent with myelofibrosis.
