Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is known to have myriad presentations due to the extremely vascular nature of the organ. RCC are known to metastasize extensively to various organs of the body. We report a case of a 70-years-old male who presented with multiple inguinal lymph node enlargements which on excision biopsy showed metastatic adenocarcinomatous deposit. Search for the primary revealed a RCC arising from the left kidney. Inguinal lymph nodal metastasis, an uncommon site of distant metastasis in renal neoplasm, as a fi rst clinical sign leading to the diagnosis is not yet reported in literature.

Objectives: CD19-targeting chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy can induce long-term drug-free remission in patients with autoimmune diseases (AIDs). The efficacy of CD19-CAR T-cell therapy is presumably based on deep tissue depletion of B cells; however, such effect has not been proven in humans in vivo.
Methods: Sequential ultrasound-guided inguinal lymph node biopsies were performed at baseline and after CD19-CAR T-cell therapy in patients with AIDs.

Hematological malignancies are known to have cutaneous manifestations, either in the form of direct infiltration of skin by malignant cells or as a result of paraneoplastic syndrome. Many hematological malignancies, including chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), are known to cause malignancy-induced Eosinophilic Dermatoses. We present a case of an elderly woman who presented with multiple pruritic patches.

This study presents a rare case of three synchronous colon tumors with metastasis to the left inguinal lymph node, challenging the conventional understanding of the metastatic pathways and highlighting the exceptional nature of such occurrences. This highlights the importance of considering alternative atypical metastatic routes for the management of colon cancer. A literature search was performed to identify similar cases.
