Patients with polycythemia vera (PV) develop various complications due to hyper-viscous blood, causing events such as ischemic stroke. There are other associated complications due to the dysfunction of platelet activity, causing hemorrhages. In our unusual case, we present a patient who came to the OPD complaining of slurring speech.

Background: Cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) is an autosomal dominantly inherited cerebral small vessel disease caused by Neurogenic locus notch homolog protein 3 (NOTCH3) gene mutations. The main clinical features include migraine with aura, recurrent ischemic strokes and dementia. Brain MRI typically shows multiple small lacunar infarcts and severe, diffuse, symmetrical white matter hyperintensities (WMHs), with characteristic involvement of the anterior temporal pole, external capsule, and superior frontal gyrus.

This is the first histological and molecular analysis of two chondrosarcomas with target-like chondrocytes that were compared with a group of conventional chondrosarcomas and enchondromas. The unique histological feature of target-like chondrocytes is the presence of unusual hypertrophic eosinophilic APAS-positive perichondrocytic rings (baskets). In the sections stained with Safranin O/Fast green, the outer part of the ring was blue and the material in the lacunar space stained orange, similarly to intercellular regions.
