Introduction: Laryngeal chondrosarcoma (CS) is a rare indolent malignant tumor. High-grade (G3), dedifferentiated (DD), and myxoid (MY) CSs are considered more aggressive subtypes due to their metastatic potential and relatively poor outcomes. The aim of this systematic review is to evaluate treatment modalities and survival outcomes in patients affected by these rarer CS subtypes.

Introduction: A significant proportion of newly diagnosed prostate cancer (PCa) cases are slow growing with a low risk of metastatic progression. There is a lack of data concerning the optimal biopsy regimen for improving diagnosis yield in PI-RADS3 lesions. This study aimed to assess the diagnostic value of current biopsy regimens in PI-RADS 3 lesions and identify clinical predictors to improve clinically significant PCa (csPCa) detection.

Small intestinal neuroendocrine tumors (SI-NETs) typically follow an indolent disease course and are often accompanied by mesenteric lymph node metastases upon diagnosis. These tumors can incite a fibroblastic reaction within the mesenteric root. Here, we present two cases of patients with symptomatic small bowel obstruction due to such mesenteric involvement.

Extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (EMZL) is an indolent B-cell lymphoma that can involve various anatomic sites. EMZL is derived from post-germinal center marginal zone B cells and typically lacks bcl-6 expression. Herein, we report two post-treatment cases of EMZL where unexpected bcl-6 protein expression was observed in specimens obtained following recurrence or progression.

Description: Gastric cancer (GC) is a leading cause of preventable cancer and mortality in certain US populations. The most impactful way to reduce GC mortality is via primary prevention, namely Helicobacter pylori eradication, and secondary prevention, namely endoscopic screening and surveillance of precancerous conditions, such as gastric intestinal metaplasia (GIM). An emerging body of evidence supports the possible impact of these strategies on GC incidence and mortality in identifiable high-risk populations in the United States.
