Breast fibroadenomas are a common benign tumour in women that may need to be surgically excised. A mammary-like fibroadenoma can exceptionally be found in the pathological report after an anal polyp removal. A 60-year-old woman presented with huge anal polyp of 25 mm. It was surgically removed transanally. Histologic examination revealed a breast fibroadenoma pattern with glandular structures. Proctologist specialists must be aware that mammary-like tumours are a possible differential diagnosis for anal masses despite their rarity in the literature.

Article Synopsis
- Surgical excision is the main treatment for presacral cysts, but it's challenging due to nearby blood vessels and nerves, which can lead to complications and recurrence if done incorrectly.
- The Chinese Expert Consensus on the Standardized Diagnosis and Treatment of Presacral Cysts (2024 edition) was developed by a team of specialists to address these challenges and improve patient outcomes.
- Key updates in the 2024 consensus include new classifications for cyst anatomy, a focus on protecting sacral nerves during surgery, and clearer surgical approaches for different types of cysts.
CLMS: Bridging domain gaps in medical imaging segmentation with source-free continual learning for robust knowledge transfer and adaptation.

Deep learning shows promise for medical image segmentation but suffers performance declines when applied to diverse healthcare sites due to data discrepancies among the different sites. Translating deep learning models to new clinical environments is challenging, especially when the original source data used for training is unavailable due to privacy restrictions. Source-free domain adaptation (SFDA) aims to adapt models to new unlabeled target domains without requiring access to the original source data.

Anal melanoma is a rare and highly aggressive malignancy that carries a poor prognosis. Due to its variable and ambiguous presentation, it is often misdiagnosed as a hemorrhoid, polyp, or an ulcer with a concomitant rectal prolapse. Clinicians usually have a low suspicion of anal melanoma due to its rarity and most people present with metastatic disease at the time of diagnosis.

CNN-based object detection models that strike a balance between performance and speed have been gradually used in polyp detection tasks. Nevertheless, accurately locating polyps within complex colonoscopy video scenes remains challenging since existing methods ignore two key issues: intra-sequence distribution heterogeneity and precision-confidence discrepancy. To address these challenges, we propose a novel Temporal-Spatial self-correction detector (TSdetector), which first integrates temporal-level consistency learning and spatial-level reliability learning to detect objects continuously.
