Sclerosing stromal tumors (SSTs) are a rare type of benign tumors of the ovary, representing 6% of sex cord tumors subtype. We report a case of SSTs affecting a young female patient presenting with abdominal pain and a pelvic mass on imaging examination. The patient underwent laparoscopic right salpingo-oophorectomy, and the pathology report confirmed the diagnosis of SSTs. A review of the literature with the typical pathological and imaging features of SSTs as well their management is performed.

Introduction And Importance: Sclerosing angiomatoid nodular transformation of the spleen is a rare benign vascular lesion arising from red pulp of spleen with unknown etiopathogenesis. It is a non-neoplastic condition that affects the spleen only; not described in other sites except one case reported in adrenal gland. Epidemiologically it has slight female predilection.

Sclerosing adenosis (SA) is a subtype of adenosis characterized by proliferative adenosis and stromal sclerosis with distortion of the terminal ductal lobular unit. Although SA is the most prevalent benign breast condition among middle-aged women, it may be associated with a two-fold increase in breast cancer risk. Microscopic findings of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) in a SA (SA-DCIS) may mimic microinvasive carcinoma or even invasive carcinoma, which may result in overtreatment by a breast surgeon.

Sclerosing mucoepidermoid carcinoma (SMEC) of the salivary glands is a rare variant of low-grade mucoepidermoid carcinoma with scanty cellular atypia characterized by marked fibrosis/sclerosis and a rich inflammatory infiltrate. Herein, we report 25 unpublished cases of SMEC, two of them with prominent eosinophilia (2/25; 8%) and three with abundant IgG4-positive plasma cells (3/25; 12%). In our series of salivary SMEC, molecular analysis using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and/or next-generation sequencing (NGS) provided evidence of MAML2 gene rearrangement in 18 cases of the 21 analyzable cases tested (86%), while this gene locus was intact in 3 cases (14%).

Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on improving diagnostic accuracy for pulmonary sclerosing pneumocytoma (PSP) by analyzing 79 confirmed cases from Zhengzhou University between 2015 and 2023.
- The analysis revealed a predominance of females, with typical age around 47 years, and noted that 5 cases were initially misdiagnosed as adenocarcinoma and 1 as carcinoid.
- Key diagnostic features include the observation of dual-cell populations within the tumor and specific histological characteristics such as glandular spaces and surface cell types; recognizing these can help prevent misdiagnosis in needle biopsy specimens.

Article Synopsis
- Iris cysts can cause a range of serious eye issues, so their complete removal is crucial to prevent recurrence and improve patient outcomes.
- A new three-step technique was developed for managing iris cysts, which includes aspiration, wall removal, and cauterization while minimizing tissue damage.
- This minimally invasive approach led to fewer complications, no reported recurrences in six months, and overall better visual outcomes compared to more aggressive treatments.
