Prostate cancer frequently metastasizes to bones; however, the detection of metastases can be challenging in rare locations. We present the case of a 76-year-old man with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer with lymph nodal and skeletal metastases who underwent 177Lu-prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) therapy. Initial 18F-PSMA PET/CT scan acquired until the midthigh failed to identify metastases in the foot, but posttherapy 177Lu-PSMA scan revealed the presence of metastases in the navicular and cuboid bones of the right foot, which is a very rare finding.

In this work, the chloride system M(AlCl) (M = Ca, Sr, Ba) doped with Yb is investigated in greater detail. The influence of the [AlCl] ion on the position of the emission band of Yb is investigated and the emission spectra are recorded. The emission spectra of the Yb-doped materials are characterized by broad 4f5d (HS) ↔ 4f transitions with maxima in the range between 416 nm (Ca) and 421 nm (Ba) (24,061-23,738 cm), whereas the Ba compound features an additional 4f5d (LS) ↔ 4f emission band at 397 nm (25,203 cm) at lower temperatures.

Background: Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is frequently associated with disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), leading to potentially life-threatening bleeding. Compared to bleeding, thromboses are a less commonly encountered problem.

Objective: The objective of our study was to identify the incidence and predictive value of demographic data, clinical-laboratory parameters, and thrombosis risk assessment models (RAMs) for venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients with APL.

Background: McKittrick-Wheelock syndrome is an uncommon and severe disorder caused by large hypersecretory tumors located in the distal colorectal area. Excessive secretion from adenomas is an unusual clinical manifestation that leads to severe electrolyte and fluid depletion, subsequently resulting in kidney injury. Successful treatment relies on quick and cooperative decision-making for timely intervention.
