Background: Gastrointestinal subepithelial lesions (SELs) range from benign to malignant. Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS)-guided fine-needle biopsy (EUS-FNB) is used widely for pathological diagnosis of SELs. Early diagnosis and treatment are important because all Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) have some degree of malignant potential.

Introduction: Neurofibromas are rare benign tumors of peripheral nerve sheaths, and hand involvement is particularly uncommon. This case report presents a large neurofibroma located in the thenar region, a critical area for thumb opposition and hand dexterity, posing unique surgical challenges.
Presentation Of Case: A 23-year-old female presented with a 3-year history of a progressively enlarging mass in the thenar region of the right hand, accompanied by nocturnal pain but no neurological deficits.

Introduction And Importance: Peritoneal inclusion cysts (PICs), also known as peritoneal mesothelial cysts, are rare, benign cystic lesions primarily occurring in the abdominopelvic cavity of premenopausal women with histories of pelvic surgery or inflammation. These cysts can present with nonspecific symptoms and may mimic other abdominal pathologies, making diagnosis challenging.
Case Presentation: A 41-year-old male with no significant medical history, who experienced progressive nonspecific abdominal pain over several months.

To compare the efficacy and safety of low-power holmium laser enucleation of the prostate (LP-HoLEP) with plasma kinetic resection of prostate (PKRP). Sixty-three patients treated with transurethral LP-HoLEP (observation group) and 68 patients treated with transurethral PKRP (control group) at Beijing Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from November 2019 to November 2022 were retrospectively compared with regard to operation duration, intra-operative blood loss, prostate resection ratio, postoperative bladder irrigation time, postoperative indwelling urinary catheter time, postoperative urinary incontinence incidence, International Prostate Symptom Scale (IPSS), maximum urine flow rate (Qmax), and residual urine volume (RUV). In both groups, postoperative IPSS, Qmax, and RUV were significantly improved compared to preoperative values (P < 0.

Objective: This study explored the value of stomach ultrasound reporting and data system (Su-RADS) and two-dimensional shear wave elastography (2D-SWE) in the diagnosis of benign and malignant lesions of the gastric wall, evaluating the feasibility of combining the two methods for the diagnosis of gastric wall lesions.
Methods: 113 patients with gastric wall lesions were examined after oral gastric ultrasound contrast agent, and the grades of the gastric wall lesions were classified according to Su-RADS. Moreover, 2D-SWE was performed to measure the E value of the lesions.
