In this study, we have investigated the surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectra of myoglobin on silver substrates with different morphology. The aim was to determine the optimal parameters of analyte and substrate preparation for obtaining of high-amplitude SERS spectra of proteins. It is shown that not only the morphology of the silver film, but also the method of analyte molecules deposition on the SERS substrate plays an important role.

Trichobezoar or hairball in the proximal part of the gastrointestinal tract is a rare condition that occurs mainly in young and adolescent females. Since human hair is resistant to digestive enzymes and resistant to peristalsis, it easily accumulates between the folds of the mucosa. Over time, food and mucus accumulate within the hair, forming a compact mass that fills almost the entire lumen.

Osseous choristomas, characterized by ectopic bone, are rare and typically found in the head and neck, particularly on the tongue. This report describes a unique case of an osseous choristoma in a 63-year-old male with an unusual posterior tongue location. An incidental base of tongue (BOT) mass was discovered during a bronchoscopy for lung biopsy.
