Introduction: Neurofibromas are rare benign tumors of peripheral nerve sheaths, and hand involvement is particularly uncommon. This case report presents a large neurofibroma located in the thenar region, a critical area for thumb opposition and hand dexterity, posing unique surgical challenges.
Presentation Of Case: A 23-year-old female presented with a 3-year history of a progressively enlarging mass in the thenar region of the right hand, accompanied by nocturnal pain but no neurological deficits.
Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) of the biliary tract are extremely rare due to a paucity of Kulchitsky cells. While their preoperative diagnosis remains challenging due to the lack of specific diagnostic markers and imaging findings, there have been no detailed reports describing the diagnostic utility of various imaging modalities for bile duct NETs at the junction of the cystic and common hepatic ducts. We report a case of a woman in her 40s who presented with jaundice and elevated hepatobiliary enzymes.

Rationale: The orbital Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is rare clinically, due to its ability to mimic other conditions, distinguishing LCH from hematoma when these disorders coexist can be particularly challenging.
Patient Concerns: A 3-year-old boy presented with a 2-week history of unresolved bruising and swelling of the left eye. CT revealed a well-defined cystic lesion in the preseptal tissues of the left eyelid, with an incomplete bone structure at the lower margin of the orbit.

Background: According to previous studies, tall cell carcinoma with reversed polarity can be easily distinguished from ductal carcinoma in situ based on the absence of myoepithelium and a typical histologic feature. However, to the best of our knowledge, no cases of papillary ductal carcinoma exhibiting tall cell and reversed polarity features with intact myoepithelium have been reported, and thus its diagnosis and prognosis remain unclear.
Case Presentation: A 54-year-old female with a palpable lump in her right breast for 3 years.
