We report a case of primary multifocal osseous lymphoma in a 6-year-old girl presenting with multifocal osteolytic lesions without systemic symptoms or identifiable non-osseous primary tumor. The differential diagnoses for such a presentation include histiocytosis X, chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, metastatic disease, and primary bone lymphoma. Although non-Hodgkin lymphoma is common in the pediatric population, its presentation as a primary bone tumor, especially with multifocal disease, is extremely rare and is frequently misdiagnosed. We hope that awareness of this entity will help radiologists achieve timely diagnosis and intervention.

Background: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is an aggressive cancer, with prognosis influenced by clinical variables as well grading systems and perineural invasion (PNI), which are associated to poorer outcomes, including higher rates of recurrence and metastasis. This study aims to evaluate OSCC using three grading systems and assess the impact of PNI and clinicopathologic parameters on patient survival.
Material And Methods: Eighty-one primary OSCC samples were analyzed.

Background And Objective: Positive surgical margins (PSMs) following radical prostatectomy (RP) have been seen as inherently unfavorable. However, a large international multi-institutional study recently revealed that unifocal PSMs (UPSMs) had no impact on prostate cancer-specific mortality (PCSM), whereas multifocal PSMs (MPSMs) did. Our aim was to assess the relative impact of PSMs versus percentage tumor volume (PTV) on PCSM.

Background: Alport syndrome (AS) is a genetically heterogeneous disorder resulting from variants in genes coding for the alpha-3/4/5 chains of Collagen IV, leading to defective basement membranes in the kidney, cochlea, and eye. The clinical manifestations of AS vary in patients. Cases of childhood AS caused by presenting primarily with nephrotic syndrome (NS) are rarely reported.

Angiomatoid fibrous histiocytoma (AFH) is a rare soft tissue tumor with intermediate malignant potential, and it rarely metastasizes. We encountered a unique AFH case where, the tumor was discovered initially in unusual locations-the left lung and the left 4th rib. Combined histological features with FISH and NGS analysis, the diagnosis of AFH was supported, however, it is difficult to determine which of these two is the primary lesion.
