Osteosarcoma is rare malignancy of childhood and adolescence, with high morbidity and mortality despite accomplishment of diverse therapeutic modalities. Identification of the underlying mechanism of osteosarcoma evolution would help in better management of this rare malignancy. Lots of investigations have described abnormal regulation of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) in clinical specimens of osteosarcoma and the established cell lines. This malignancy has been associated with over-expression of TUG1, LOXL1-AS1, MIR100HG, NEAT1, HULC, ANRIL and a number of other lncRNAs, while under-expression of lots of lncRNAs including LncRNA-p21, FER1L4, GAS5, LncRNA NR_136400 and LINC-PINT. Expression amounts of LUCAT1, LINC00922, SNHG12, FOXC2-AS1 and OIP5-AS1 lncRNAs have been associated with response to a number of chemotherapeutic agents. Taken together, lncRNAs are possible targets for proposing novel advanced therapeutic modalities for osteosarcoma.

Low-dose methotrexate (LD-MTX) is the anchor drug used in the treatment of various rheumatological illnesses. There are a lot of misconceptions associated with the long-term use of MTX in the minds of practitioners. The origin of most of these myths stems from the ill effects associated with high-dose MTX used in cancer chemotherapy.

Objective: Endolymphatic sac tumors (ELSTs), as rare low-grade neoplasms, are primarily treated with surgery. This study analyzes the characteristics of tumor-infiltrating leukocytes (TILs) in ELSTs and their relationships with clinical features to explore the potential for immunotherapy in ELSTs.
Methods: Clinical data and tumor specimens of 10 ELSTs patients who underwent surgery were retrieved.
Primary splenic diffuse large B-cell lymphoma presenting with a gastrosplenic fistula: Case report.

Department of Radiology, University of Missouri, Columbia, MO, USA.
Primary splenic diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (PS-DLBCL) is a rare manifestation of malignant lymphoma. Although DLBCL is the most common subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, primary splenic involvement is uncommon. Additionally, a gastrosplenic fistula at initial presentation is even more rare and poses a diagnostic challenge for the radiologist.

Retroperitoneal teratomas are rare neoplasms in neonates, presenting with nonspecific symptoms and variable clinical features, making diagnosis challenging. Radiological investigations, particularly fetal ultrasound and contrast-enhanced computed tomography, play a critical role in their detection. Differential diagnoses include neuroblastoma, adrenal hemorrhage, and congenital cystic lesions, which share overlapping clinical and imaging features.

Gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN) comprises a category of malignant or potentially malignant tumors that arise from gestational trophoblasts. Almost all cases of GTN experience a recurrence within the first year following treatment, although recurrences become rare after five years. Recurrent GTN tends to have a poor prognosis, primarily due to challenges in management, a high rate of relapse, and a low five-year survival rate.
