Article Abstract
Breast cancer metastasis to unusual locations may present as a diagnostic challenge. Recognizing the different manifestations of metastatic breast disease can help to guide patient treatment and assist in disease prognosis. The purpose of this article is to illustrate the imaging findings of some of the unusual or infrequent locations of breast metastases through a series of interesting cases and to revisit this uncommon clinical issue.

An Unusual Case Report of Duodenojejunal Flexure Tumor With a Systematic Review of the Literature.

The small intestine is the longest segment of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, but cancers in the small intestine are infrequent. The duodenojejunal (DJ) flexure is an uncommon site for tumors, and those located in these sites are difficult to identify and manage properly. Their rarity, along with ambiguous symptoms that can be readily misattributed to milder conditions, results in a delayed diagnosis when the tumors have significantly advanced.

This case emphasises the difficulties in diagnosing a patient with brisk active small bowel bleeding and the differential diagnostic process of identifying tumour types preoperatively using imaging information. This case also underscores the importance of the surgical approach in different scenarios. Despite advancements in small bowel imaging, identifying the source and causes of small bowel bleeding remains challenging, particularly in life-threatening situations.

Introduction: While male breast carcinoma is a relatively uncommon occurrence, its incidence is on the rise, potentially attributed to sporadic pathophysiological mechanisms, primarily involving hormonal imbalances. Invasive apocrine carcinoma represents a small fraction of global breast malignancies, with limited instances reported among male patients in the literature. The clinical presentation of an apocrine breast carcinoma closely resembles that of other breast cancer subtypes, as it is most often described as a solitary ulcerative nodular lesion occupying a retro-areolar region of the breast.

Background: Lupus podocytopathy (LP) is a non-immune complex-mediated glomerular lesion in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), characterized by the diffuse effacement of podocyte processes without immune complex deposition or with only mesangial immune complex deposition. LP is a rare cause of nephrotic syndrome in SLE patients with implications for prognosis and treatment.
Case Report: We present the case of a 28-year-old woman with a medical history of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) who presented with lower limb edema, dyspnea, hypercholesterolemia, with nephrotic range proteinuria, without acute kidney injury, and laboratory findings compatible with auto-immune hemolytic anemia.
