Breast metastasis from a primary ovarian neoplasm is very rare. We report a case of breast metastasis along with involvement of the liver, spleen, and pelvis from ovarian carcinoma in a 54-year-old woman demonstrated by whole-body bone scanning. Ovarian metastatic deposits frequently show calcification, and a Tc-99m MDP bone scan could be useful in determining the extent of calcified soft tissue metastatic spread in these patients. A review of the literature of breast metastases form ovarian carcinoma is discussed.

Background: Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) are fundamental to evidence-based medicine, but their real-world impact on clinical practice often remains unmonitored. Leveraging large-scale real-world data can enable systematic monitoring of RCT effects. We aimed to develop a reproducible framework using real-world data to assess how major RCTs influence medical practice, using two pivotal surgical RCTs in gynaecologic oncology as an example-the LACC (Laparoscopic Approach to Cervical Cancer) and LION (Lymphadenectomy in Ovarian Neoplasms) trials.

Malignant transformation is a rare complication of ovarian mature cystic teratoma that occurs in 1-3% of cases. We herein report a case of squamous cell carcinoma originating from mature cystic teratoma of the ovary diagnosed 10 years after initial tumor detection. A 69-year-old woman presented to the Department of Internal Medicine with a seven-month history of abdominal fullness.

Background: Clear cell ovarian carcinoma (CCOC) is a type of epithelial ovarian cancer, representing 5-11% of ovarian cancers. CCOCs tend to occur in the fifth to seventh decades of life, with only 10% of cases occurring in the fourth decade. On the other side, papillary thyroid carcinoma is the most common histology type of thyroid carcinoma and is associated with locoregional spread.

Cancer, a leading cause of global mortality, remains a significant challenge to increasing life expectancy worldwide. Forkhead Box R2 (FOXR2), identified as an oncogene within the FOX gene family, plays a crucial role in developing various endoderm-derived organs. Recent studies have elucidated FOXR2-related pathways and their involvement in both tumor and non-tumor diseases.

Background: Dermatomyositis is a chronic inflammatory condition affecting muscles and skin, often associated with an increased risk of cancer. Specific autoantibodies, including anti-TIF1 (Transcription Intermediary Factor 1), have been linked to this risk. We present a case of dermatomyositis in a male patient positive for anti-TIF1 antibodies, subsequently diagnosed with squamous cell carcinoma of the tonsil, a novel association not previously documented.
