Two cases of regressing atypical histiocytosis were studied. New findings reported include the presence of CD1 epitope on large atypical histiocytoid cells and apparent early lymph node involvement. Because regressing atypical histiocytosis may demonstrate aberrant thymic differentiation antigen expression and T-cell receptor gene rearrangements, initial lymph node involvement, and eventuation in conventional lymphoma in some cases, the alternative term regressing-phase anaplastic lymphoma is proposed as a more accurate designation for this entity.

Atypical pulmonary manifestations suggestive of lung cancer in behçet's disease with spontaneously regressing lymphadenopathy and a lung mass: a case report.

BMC Pulm Med

January 2025

Division of Pulmonology and Critical Care Medicine, Department of Internal Medicine, College of Medicine, Chungnam National University, Daejeon, 301-721, Republic of Korea.

Background: Behçet's disease (BD) is a multisystem inflammatory disorder that can affect various organs, including the lungs. Pulmonary manifestations are rare and typically present as pulmonary artery aneurysms.

Case Presentation: We report the case of a 56-year-old East Asian male with a 27-year history of BD, who had no respiratory symptoms, such as hemoptysis, cough, or fever.

Sucking blister in a newborn: atypical localisation.

BMJ Case Rep

January 2025

Paediatrics, Unidade Local de Saúde São João, Porto, Portugal.

A meticulous examination of the oral cavity is an essential part of the initial newborn assessment. The differential diagnosis can involve benign and self-limiting lesions to those lesions compromising quality of life. We present a clinical case of a newborn born with a purple, hard tumour on the hard palate that spontaneously regressed, being thus compatible with the case of a sucking blister.

Conservative management of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2 and prediction of its progression - a retrospective study.

Popa University of Medicine and Pharmacy, Iaşi, Romania;

Aim: Cervical intraepithelial neoplasia 2 (CIN2) evolution is controversial, and some of them regress spontaneously in a two-year follow-up. The purpose of this work was to evaluate the percentage of CIN2 progression or persistence during a 24-month follow-up, using clinical predictors such as human papillomavirus (HPV) genotype and cytology results.

Patients, Materials And Methods: This is a retrospective case-control study and included patients of reproductive age who had a new diagnosis of CIN2 who were monitored for lesion regression (Group 1, n=72 patients), and progression or persistence (Group 2, n=36 patients).

Indeterminate cell histiocytosis (ICH) is a rare histiocytic disorder characterized by a proliferation of CD1a and CD207/langerin cells. Recent molecular analyses have identified ETV3-NCOA2 translocation as a possible aetiopathogenesis of ICH. Herein, we describe the first Japanese case of ICH with ETV3-NCOA2 translocation.

Article Synopsis
  • * LCH is characterized by clusters of small blood vessels with prominent endothelial cells and many red blood cells, requiring careful diagnosis to differentiate it from similar lesions.
  • * Although most oral hemangiomas shrink on their own, if they persist into adulthood, they can cause problems like difficulty in speaking and swallowing, as demonstrated by a rare case of LCH in a 51-year-old man.
