Published: August 2010

The possible influence of the oesophageal diseases on the heart is well known. Deglutition syncope and pre-syncope have been described in relation to arrhythmias or mechanical problems. We report here a case of recurrent pre-syncope in a patient after gastric banding.

Rare dual MYH9-ROS1 fusion variants in a patient with lung adenocarcinoma: A case report.

Medicine (Baltimore)

January 2025

Department of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, Zhongshan City People's Hospital, Zhongshan, Guangdong Province, China.

Rationale: ROS proto-oncogene 1 (ROS1) fusion is a rare but important driver mutation in non-small cell lung cancer, which usually shows significant sensitivity to small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors. With the widespread application of next-generation sequencing (NGS), more fusions and co-mutations of ROS1 have been discovered. Non-muscle myosin heavy chain 9 (MYH9) is a rare fusion partner of ROS1 gene as reported.

A Rare Case of Peritoneal Mesothelioma Detected by 18F-AlF-NOTA-Octreotide PET/CT.

Clin Nucl Med

January 2025

From the Department of Nuclear Medicine (PET-CT Center), National Cancer Center, National Clinical Research Center for Cancer, Cancer Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College, Beijing, China.

We present a case of 37-year-old man with multiple masses in the abdominal and pelvic cavity who underwent 18F-AlF-NOTA-octreotide PET/CT. The masses demonstrated heterogeneously increased uptake on 18F-AlF-NOTA-octreotide PET/CT and were suggestive of neuroendocrine tumor. However, the histopathological examinations confirmed the masses to be peritoneal mesothelioma.

A 37-year-old man presented with a 2-month history of fever of unknown origin and erythema rashes on the trunk and limbs. 18F-FDG PET/CT revealed increased 18F-FDG uptake in subcutaneous panniculitis, forming a snow leopard sign, along with enlarged lymph nodes, which suggested subcutaneous panniculitis-like T-cell lymphoma. However, skin biopsy indicated subcutaneous infection, and bone marrow biopsy revealed no abnormal lymphocytes.

Whole exome sequencing reveals ABCD1 variant as a potential contributor to male infertility.

Mol Biol Rep

January 2025

Laboratory of Genomics and Human Genetics, Institut Pasteur du Maroc, Casablanca, Morocco.

Background: Male infertility (MI) is a polygenic condition mainly induced by spermatogenic failure/arrest or systemic disease with a large clinical spectrum. Lately, genetic sequencing allowed the identification of several variants implicated in both aforesaid situations.

Methods And Results: In this case study, we performed whole exome sequencing (WES) on the genomic DNA of a 37-year-old Moroccan man with Non-Obstructive Azoospermia.

Adrenocortical carcinomas are rare but aggressive tumors that are frequently discovered as incidentalomas. Secretory tumors often lead to endocrine abnormalities, namely cushingoid features, virilization, or feminization. Non-functioning tumors, on the other hand, can be completely dormant with an insidious course or cause malaise, weight loss, abdominal pain, etc.
