Osteoblastoma is a rare benign primary bone tumor. It accounts for 3% of benign and 1% of all primary bone tumors. The treatment goal is complete surgical resection. This treatment limits the risk of recurrence. As osteoblastoma is a highly vascular tumor, complete resection is often difficult. This report describes the case of a 19-year-old male patient who presented severe right-sided neck and shoulder pain. The computed tomography scan revealed a mass lesion on C7 compatible with osteoblastoma. Preoperative embolization and tumor resection were performed. At the 3-year follow-up, the patient had no restrictions on daily activities, and, to date, there has been no evidence of recurrence.

Success of outpatient hysterectomy: V-Notes versus Vaginal hysterectomy.
J Gynecol Obstet Hum Reprod

Department of Gynecologic Surgery, Hôpital Privé du Bois, Lille, France.
Study Objective: Vaginal hysterectomy (VH) is the approach of choice for benign uterine conditions and is suitable for outpatient care. Many studies suggest that the vaginal natural orifice transluminal endoscopic surgery (V-Notes) technique is reliable and safe for outpatient surgery, but the literature includes only pilot studies with small cohorts. The aim is to assess the V-Notes technique compared to VH in outpatient settings with a larger cohort.

Prostate cancer is the second most common type of cancer in male worldwide. Stromal-epithelial interaction is thought to have a major impact on cancer development and progression. Previous studies have shown that interaction via soluble factors lead to a reduction in the expression of xCT and AL122023.

Teledermoscopy (TDS) emerges as an efficient tool for diagnosing skin lesions. In Sweden, double reading is the standard of care, but risk factors for misdiagnosis or mismanagement using single reader evaluations (SRE) are not well-studied. This study aimed to assess the accuracy of SRE compared with the gold standard in TDS.

This study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a 6-month placement of a fully covered self-expanding metallic stent for refractory benign biliary stricture.
Methods: Twenty-two patients with refractory benign biliary stricture (13 with chronic pancreatitis and 9 without) were recruited from five higher tertiary care centers.
A Rare Case of a Cardiac Papillary Fibroelastoma Arising in the Right Atrial Septum and Resected via Minimally Invasive Cardiac Surgery.
Cureus

Second Department of Surgery, Faculty of Medicine, Yamagata University, Yamagata, JPN.
Papillary fibroelastomas (PFEs) are rare, benign, primary cardiac tumors, typically found on the valve surfaces and more commonly on the left side of the heart, with occurrences in the right atrium even rarer. In this case, a highly mobile tumor was incidentally detected in the right atrium of an 83-year-old woman with advanced right lung cancer during preoperative transthoracic echocardiography and magnetic resonance imaging. Although the patient was asymptomatic and of advanced age, the tumor's high mobility warranted resection.
