Endocrine mucin-producing sweat gland carcinoma (EMPSGC) is thought to be a precursor to mucinous carcinoma, both of which are rare. In this case report, the authors present a 55-year-old woman with concurrent EMPSGC and mucinous carcinoma manifesting with 2 distinct lesions on her left upper and lower eyelid and 1 lesion on her right lower eyelid. Biopsy and immunohistochemical staining supported primary cutaneous origin of the tumors. Systemic metastatic workup was initiated and thus far negative. The patient underwent staged slow Mohs micrographic surgery to remove one tumor at a time, with delayed reconstruction. This is the first reported case of EMPSGC and mucinous carcinoma presenting as distinct lesions both bilaterally and synchronously.

The optimal surgical indication for intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMN) remains highly contentious. We aimed to determine the preoperative predictive factors of malignancy and independent prognostic factors in patients with IPMN who underwent curative-intent resection. In this study, 104 patients with a pathological diagnosis of IPMN who underwent curative-intent resection were included.

Inhibin, β, which is also known as INHBA, encodes a protein that belongs to the Transforming Growth factor-β (TGF-β) superfamily, which plays a pivotal role in cancer. Gastrointestinal tract (GI tract) cancer refers to the cancers that develop in the colon, liver, esophagus, stomach, rectum, pancreas, and bile ducts of the digestive system. The role of INHBA in all GI tract cancers remains understudied.

Cytoreductive surgery and intraoperative, intraperitoneal hyperthermic chemoperfusion (hyperthermic intraperitoneal intraoperative chemotherapy) are commonly used for the management of peritoneal surface metastases. We describe a case of acute embolic infarcts in bilateral cerebellar lobes, cerebral peduncles, thalamus and left parietal lobe cortex in a postmenopausal woman in her 50s diagnosed with bilateral ovarian mucinous adenocarcinoma with peritoneal metastasis under general anaesthesia.
