Background: Benign breast disease (BBD) increases breast cancer (BC) risk progressively for women diagnosed with non-proliferative (NP) change, proliferative disease without atypia (PDWA), and atypical hyperplasia (AH). Leveraging data from 18,704 women in the Mayo BBD Cohort (1967-2013), we evaluated temporal trends in BBD diagnoses and how they have influenced associated BC risk over four decades.
Methods: BC risk trends associated with BBD were evaluated using standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) and age-period-cohort modeling across four eras-pre-mammogram (1967-1981), pre-core needle biopsy (CNB) (1982-1992), transition to CNB (1993-2001), and CNB era (2002-2013).

A 54-year-old woman was referred to our hospital because of abnormal colonoscopic findings, including a submucosal protuberance at the appendiceal root. A biopsy showed no malignant findings. Computed tomography revealed a 20-mm cystic lesion with thick walls at the appendiceal root, suggestive of an appendiceal mucocele.

Background And Aim: Ex vivo fluorescence confocal microscopy (FCM) systems are innovative optical imaging tools that create virtual high-resolution histological images without any standard tissue processing, either freezing or fixing in formalin and embedding in paraffin. These systems have opened an era that would revolutionize pathological examination by providing rapid, real-time assessments across various pathology subspecialties, potentially replacing conventional methods that are tissue- and time-consuming. This study aimed to present the first utilization of FCM in pediatric surgical oncology, focusing on assessing the benefits, particularly in facilitating rapid and accurate diagnosis.

Background: A ground glass nodule (GGN) is a radiologically descriptive term for a lung parenchymal area with increased attenuation and preserved bronchial and vascular structures. GGNs are further divided into pure versus subsolid lesions. The differential diagnosis for GGNs is wide and contains a malignant possibility for a lung adenocarcinoma precursor or tumor.

Background: Endometrial proliferative lesions (EPLs) encompass endometrial hyperplasia (EH) and endometrial carcinoma (EC). Atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH) is associated with an elevated risk of progression to EC. Patients with polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) exhibit higher serum levels of anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) and a correspondingly increased incidence of EPLs.
