Background: A 66 years old presented with abnormal postmenopausal vaginal bleeding and was diagnosed with an endometrial lymphoma (diffuse large B cell type, DLBCL). A left breast lesion was found on PET CT which was subsequently biopsy-proven as a separate stage IE DLBCL, but she had no lymph node, bone marrow or spleen involvement.
Aims: This study aimed to review the available literature and discuss the management and staging of synchronous extra-nodal DLBCL's.
Results: Our patient was staged as having synchronous stage IE DLBCL's of the endometrium and breast. Subsequent molecular analysis (IgH gene rearrangement analysis) on both lesions, confirmed the two lesions to be clonally unrelated.
Conclusions: Staging of synchronous extra-nodal lymphomas, particularly when they arise in rare sites such as the endometrium and breast, is difficult and previously unreported. We present our rationale for defining our patient's disease as synchronous stage IE DLBCL's.

The role of genetics in susceptibility to radiotherapy-induced toxicities is unclear. A strong impact of genetics should cause correlated toxicities in patients with metachronous double radiotherapy. We ascertained information about demographics, lifestyle, radiotherapy and early toxicities in irradiated tissues for a retrospective cohort of 98 patients from 2 hospitals who underwent two metachronous radiotherapeutic treatments (2007-2022) of different anatomical regions.

Objective Endometrial lesions are a frequent complication following breast cancer, and current diagnostic tools have limitations. This study aims to develop a machine learning-based nomogram model for predicting the early detection of endometrial lesions in patients. The model is designed to assess risk and facilitate individualized treatment strategies for premenopausal breast cancer patients.

The protective effect of parity has been demonstrated for cancer of the breast, ovary, and endometrium but no studies have estimated the effect of each subsequent birth in women with 10 or more children or grand-grand parity women, nor compared the linear relationship of the three cancers sites. Here, we aim to explore these relationships based on the Norwegian 1960 Census. The question of parity in present marriage was answered by 385,816 women born 1870-1915, a period with high fertility.

Background: The term "Multiple Primary Malignant Neoplasms (MPMNs)" refers to two or more unrelated primary malignant neoplasms that originate from single or different organs and occur in one patient. MPMNs have been divided into synchronous and metachronous based on time duration after first malignancy.
Materials And Methods: This was a hospital-based retrospective study conducted at a tertiary cancer institute in Northeast India.

This article investigates the transformative impact of 3D and bio 3D printing technologies in assisted reproductive technology (ART), offering a comprehensive review of their applications in improving reproductive outcomes. Following PRISMA guidelines, we conducted a thorough literature search focusing on the intersection of ART and additive manufacturing, resulting in the inclusion of 48 research papers. The study highlights bio 3D printing's potential in revolutionizing female infertility treatments, especially in follicle complex culture and ovary printing.
