The nested variant of urothelial carcinoma is a recently described bladder tumor entity with a rare incidence. Two cases of this disease are presented in this report; the patients in both cases were elderly men, with a predominant involvement of the trigone region. Histologically, the tumor cells were arranged in ill-defined nests and had low-grade nuclear features. Both cases had a diffusely infiltrating growth pattern with widespread local disease at cystectomy. Strong immunohistochemical staining for p63 in the neoplastic cells supports the urothelial cell nature of this neoplasm. High p53 and Ki-67 indices of this tumor correlate with the aggressiveness of this subtype.

Background: In Ecuador, cervical cancer is the third most common cancer among women and the second most common cause of cancer-related death in women. Although HPV represents a serious public health problem worldwide, the information about its prevalence and genotypes in remote communities of Ecuador is limited. The aim of this study was to determine the distribution of HPV genotypes among ethnic minority women from two remote communities of the northwestern region of Ecuador: Afro-Ecuadorians and Chachis (Amerindian group).

Recurrent acute and chronic pancreatitis (RAP, CP) are complex, progressive inflammatory diseases with variable pain experiences impacting patient function and quality of life. The genetic variants and pain pathways in patients contributing to most severe pain experiences are unknown. We used previously genotyped individuals with RAP/CP from the North American Pancreatitis Study II (NAPS2) of European Ancestry for nested genome-wide associated study (GWAS) for pain-severity, chronicity, or both.

Metastatic sarcomatoid renal cell carcinoma (sRCC) is a significant therapeutic and diagnostic challenge due to its rarity and aggressiveness, which contribute to its poor prognosis. This case report presents the case of a 47-year-old Caucasian man with shortness of breath and right-sided abdominal pain. History revealed an extensive smoking history, a left renal mass diagnosed two months ago with inconclusive results, and an enlarged mass on computed tomography (CT) scan one week ago in an emergency department (ED) visit that showed signs consistent with metastatic disease.
