Breast carcinoma is an uncommon neoplastic condition among man, accounting for not more than 1% of all breast cancers. Intracystic papillary carcinoma in man is an extremely rare condition and represents only 5-7,5% of all male breast carcinomas. Clinical and radiological manifestations of intracystic papillary carcinomas are not specific. Pathologic diagnosis can be difficult at classical histological examination and identification of myoepithelial cells layer by immunohistochemical study can be useful. Adjuvant therapy is still controversial and prognosis is excellent. We report a case of this rare histological type of breast cancer in 48-year-old male patient and review the literature.

Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) are a very common incidental finding during patient radiological assessment. These lesions may progress from low-grade dysplasia (LGD) to high-grade dysplasia (HGD) and even pancreatic cancer. The IPMN progression risk grows with time, so discontinuation of surveillance is not recommended.

Although various complications associated with intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms have been reported, including acute pancreatitis, duct perforation, and fistula formation, spontaneous bleeding, especially life-threatening bleeding, is infrequent. In this case, emergency pancreatic resection might be one of the therapeutic options, which is associated with poor postoperative outcomes. An 87-year-old woman presented to our hospital with severe anemia (hemoglobin, 4.

Background: Most ovarian tumors exhibit a pure histological characteristic. Nevertheless, a combination of tumors with the same histogenetic origin but different histologic subtypes is relatively common. Additionally, co-occurrence of tumors with different histogenetic origins is very rare.

- The new Kyoto guidelines offer evidence-based recommendations for diagnosing and treating intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN), emphasizing the role of endoscopic ultrasonography (EUS).
- EUS is a high-resolution diagnostic tool that allows for detailed imaging and the collection of cyst fluid or tissue samples, making it essential for pancreatic disease diagnosis.
- Recent studies show that EUS has over 90% sensitivity for detecting mural nodules, making it at least as effective as other imaging methods, while also highlighting the need for skilled endoscopists to ensure objective results.
