Nested stromal epithelial tumor (NSET) of the liver is an extremely rare and unusual liver neoplasm with limited evidence of best practice for management. We report a 28-year-old male with NSET managed with primary partial hepatectomy with subsequent disease recurrence with follow-up metastectomy and successful radiofrequency ablation (RFA). Management of NSET of the liver requires a multidisciplinary approach. RFA proves beneficial in a patient with disease recurrence following tumor resection. In order to validate the regular use of RFA, more long term studies would be required.

We describe 3 patients with clear cell stromal tumor (CCST) of the lung, all of whom presented with multifocal disease. The patients were 2 men and 1 woman aged 47-58 years (mean, 54 years). Two patients had evidence of autoimmune disease and their pulmonary disease was an incidental finding; one patient presented with non-specific respiratory symptoms.

High-grade serous ovarian cancer (HG-SOC), accounting for 70-80% of ovarian cancer deaths, is characterized by a widespread and rapid metastatic nature, influenced by diverse cell types, cell-cell interactions, and acellular components of the tumour microenvironment (TME). Within this tumour type, autocrine and paracrine activation of the endothelin-1 receptors (ET-1R), expressed in tumour cells and stromal elements, drives metastatic progression. The lack of three-dimensional models that faithfully recapitulate the unique HG-SOC TME has been the bottleneck in performing drug screening for personalized medicine.

Uterine tumor resembling ovarian sex cord tumor (UTROSCT) is a rare tumor of uncertain lineage and low malignant potential. Most tumors behave in a benign manner, but a subset of UTROSCT exhibit an aggressive clinical course with recurrences and metastases. The recurrent molecular alterations in UTROSCT mostly represent gene fusions involving NCOA1-3.

The often well-developed microvasculature in pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PanNETs) has been studied from different perspectives. However, some detailed structural findings have received less attention. Our objective is to study an overlooked event in PanNETs: "enclosed vascular tufts" (EVTs).

Background: A calcifying nested stromal-epithelial tumour (CNSET) is an erratic primary liver malignant tumour frequently discovered in young girls and females. Neither its pathogenesis nor its nosogenesis is clearly known. While principally indolent, infrequent tumours with aggressive clinical progression have been defined.
