Objectives: To report a case of synchronic neoplasia--chromophobe renal cell carcinoma and low grade non Hodgkin lymphoma--in a 38-year-old male patient, because, although association of these two neoplasias is known, the fact of renal neoplasia being a chromophobe carcinoma is rarely referred to in medical bibliography (3 cases described after Med-Line search).
Methods/results: The diagnostic study included ultrasound and CT scan in a patient presenting with in non specific abdominal symptoms and neck adenopathy; patient underwent left radical nephrectomy and excision of neck adenopathy. Histologic and immuno-histochemical studies revealed the coexistence of chromophobe type renal cell carcinoma and diffuse centrocytic lymphoma.
Conclusions: Column in the association between chromophobe histological type renal cell carcinoma and non Hodgkin lymphoma is very rare. Presence of these two tumors in the same patient may pose problems for clinical staging, prognostic predictions, and treatment. Then, due to the fact that it is not usual and that a local stage renal carcinoma presents with neck adenopathies, when they appear possible coexistence of these tumors should be suspected.

Renal fibrosis is the most common pathway for the development of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) in various kidney diseases. Currently, the treatment options for renal fibrosis are limited. Ferroptosis is iron-mediated lipid peroxidation, triggered mainly by iron deposition and ROS generation.

Background: Malignant transformation (MT) of mature cystic teratoma (MCT) has a poor prognosis, especially in advanced cases. Concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) has an inhibitory effect on MT.
Case Summary: Herein, we present a case in which CCRT had a reduction effect preoperatively.
Membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN) has previously been used as an umbrella term to describe a spectrum of hypocomplementemic glomerular diseases, which are rare causes of end stage kidney disease (ESKD). We present a 22-year-old man with a well-established medical history who had been complaining of 4 days of frothy dark urine, bilateral lower limb swelling, and puffiness on his face. For a month before his presentation, he had many bilateral skin lesions on his lower limbs that were leaking pus.

Long-term survival after lung transplantation is limited due to chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD), which encompasses two main phenotypes: bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) and restrictive allograft syndrome (RAS). Donor-derived cell-free DNA (dd-cfDNA) is a biomarker for (sub)clinical allograft injury and could be a tool for monitoring of lung allograft health across the (pre)clinical spectrum of CLAD. In this proof-of-concept study, we therefore assessed post-transplant plasma dd-cfDNA levels in 20 CLAD patients (11 BOS and 9 RAS) at three consecutive time points free from concurrent infection or acute rejection, during stable condition, preclinical CLAD, and established CLAD ( = 3 × 20 samples).

To overcome this limitation, we developed a 3D culture technique using hydrogel embedding to capture morphogenesis in real time. We show that 3D culture better approximates -like niche spacing and dynamic tubule tip rearrangement, as well as -like presentation of branching defects under perturbations to glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF)- RE arranged during T ransfection (RET) tyrosine kinase signaling.
