Tattooing has become a popular global trend in industrialised countries, with the highest prevalence rates of up to 30-40 % in the adult population younger than 40 years. Common tattoo inks may contain heavy metals, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and primary aromatic amines, toxic if exceeding permissible limits. It is estimated that about 14.

Sarcoidosis is a systemic granulomatous disease with variable ocular involvement. The most common ocular manifestation is uveitis, which can have potentially sight threatening complications such as glaucoma. We present the case of a man in his 30s with sarcoidosis and recurrent anterior uveitis, necessitating surgical intervention to control intraocular pressure and prevent further glaucomatous optic neuropathy progression.

Article Synopsis
- Targeted Axillary Dissection (TAD) is a surgical technique for breast cancer that allows the selective removal of sentinel lymph nodes, which can be affected by tumor spread.
- The study explored the use of melanin-loaded polymeric nanoparticles (Mel-NPs) as an alternative to traditional carbon-based colloids for tattooing lymph nodes, aiming to reduce inflammatory responses and improve identification rates.
- Results showed high identification rates (83.3%) of tattooed nodes in pig models after 16 weeks, with stable presence and distinct macrophage interactions, though inflammation was noted with granulomatous responses.
