Splenic metastasis is rare, occurring in 2.3%- 7.1% of cases, of which 95% are carcinomas.1 The lung is the most common primary tumor site (21% of cases), followed by the gastrointestinal system, breast, ovaries, and skin. In a retrospective study evaluating the clinical and pathological impact of splenic metastases during a 25-year period in China, it was found that about 5.3% of metastases were isolated splenic metastasis.2 Isolated splenic metastasis from kidney cancer is very rare and is often an incidental finding. Here we report a case with isolated splenic metastasis in a patient with both primary renal cell carcinoma and prostate cancer, which turned out to be metastatic renal cell carcinoma in the spleen.

Raccoons (Procyon lotor) originated in North America and have been introduced to Europe. Due to their close contact with human settlements, they are important reservoirs for zoonotic pathogens, such as Baylisascaris procyonis. The relevance and prevalence of vector-borne pathogens have not yet been fully elucidated.

This is the first time HPAIV has been identified in the common crane in Serbia, leading to mass mortality of this bird species.
Methods: To understand the pathological impact of HPAIV in cranes, we evaluated the pathological changes in the tissues of common cranes.

Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), including Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), are chronic conditions characterized by periods of intestinal inflammation and have become global diseases. Dietary pectins have shown protective effects on IBD models. However, the development of pectin-based diet intervention for IBD individuals requires knowledge of both the bioactive structural patterns and the mechanisms underlying diet-microbiota-host interactions.

Objective: To analyze treatment outcomes in patients with traumatic spleen injury and improve their management through introduction of modern approaches.
Material And Methods: We retrospectively analyzed treatment outcomes in 126 patients with spleen injury who underwent surgery between 2018 and 2023. Analysis was performed using Excel and Statistica software, as well as Spearman correlation and χ tests.
Objective: Study of 2.6-di(propan-2-yl)phenol (2.6-di(P-2-yl)F) distribution nature in warm-blooded in case of fatal poisoning due to intragastric administration of the substance.
