We report 2 cases of late recurrence of osteosarcoma after 6 and 7 years. One patient had pulmonary metastasis, and the other had soft tissue recurrence. Both patients underwent complete resection and chemotherapy. The first patient achieved complete remission and remained disease-free 47 months later and had no limitation in his daily life. The second patient had a re-recurrence and underwent further resection and chemotherapy. He remained disease-free 35 months later and could walk using a T-handled walking cane.

Invasive Lobular Carcinoma (ILC), a distinct subtype of breast cancer is hallmarked by E-Cadherin loss, slow proliferation, and strong hormone receptor positivity. ILC faces significant challenges in clinical management due to advanced stage at diagnosis, late recurrence, and development of resistance to endocrine therapy - a cornerstone of ILC treatment. To elucidate the mechanisms underlying endocrine resistance in ILC, ILC cell lines (MDA-MB-134-VI, SUM44PE) were generated to be resistant to tamoxifen, a selective estrogen receptor modulator.

Ovarian cancer (OC) remains one of the most lethal gynecological malignancies, largely due to its late-stage diagnosis and high recurrence rates. Chronic inflammation is a critical driver of OC progression, contributing to immune evasion, tumor growth, and metastasis. Inflammatory cytokines, including IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-8, as well as key signaling pathways such as nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB) and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), are upregulated in OC, promoting a tumor-promoting environment.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is typically diagnosed at intermediate to advanced stage, making surgical treatment unfeasible. Conversion therapy aims to reduce tumor stage, improve hepatic resection feasibility, and lower recurrence rates. Since traditional therapies are often accompanied by uncertainty of efficacy, there is an urgent need to explore new treatment strategies.

The rising incidence of pancreatic diseases, including acute and chronic pancreatitis and various pancreatic neoplasms, poses a significant global health challenge. Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) for example, has a high mortality rate due to late-stage diagnosis and its inaccessible location. Advances in imaging technologies, though improving diagnostic capabilities, still necessitate biopsy confirmation.
