The EWSR1::CREM rearranged intra-abdominal malignant epithelioid neoplasm is an emerging tumor, with only a few publications describing it to date. Here, we report two new cases of this highly aggressive tumor, primarily involving the peritoneal surface. The tumors presented as a widespread diffuse peritoneal lesion associated with a 4-cm pelvic mass in a 28-year-old woman (Case 1) and as a 10-cm intra-abdominal mass infiltrating the stomach with multiple hepatic metastases in a 53-year-old woman (Case 2).

This study aimed to quantify the short-term effect of meteorological factors, such as mean temperature and relative humidity, on the incidence of varicella across all 47 prefectures of Japan over a decade (2010-2019).
