Ureterocele is a distal ureteral segment cystic dilatation. Its prevalence in women ranges from 1/5000 to 1/12000. A 22-year-old adult female presented with a vulvar tumor with left-side pain. She was a candidate for an interlabial lump biopsy. A vulvar growth mimicking a uterine polyp was identified during her further evaluation. On ultrasonography of the abdomen and pelvis, a left-sided hydronephrisis (grade 1), proximal ureteral dilatation, and a ureterocele related to the distal portion of the left ureter that protruded into the urethra were detected. Under anesthesia examination, the ureterocele was removed.

Previous cesarean scar defect (PCSD), also acknowledged as the myometrium of uterus defects, which commonly results in myometrial discontinuity between the uterine and cervical cavity. Current literatures have indicated the efficacy of MSCs and MSC-derived exosomes (MSC-Exos) for diverse refractory disease administration, yet the feasibility of MSC-Exos for PCSD treatment is largely obscure. In this study, we took advantage of the in vivo myofibrotic model for mimicking the typical manifestation of PCSD and the assessment of fertility.

Intravascular accumulation of atypical large lymphoid cells is a rare condition that necessitates a differential diagnosis of intravascular lymphoma (IVL). Recently, a non-neoplastic condition known as benign atypical intravascular CD30+ T-cell proliferation (BAITP) has been identified. This condition is characterized by CD30+ and CD3+ or CD4+ atypical T-cells and is often associated with trauma and chronic inflammation.

MXenes are a class of two-dimensional nanomaterials with the general formula MXT, where M denotes a transition metal, X denotes either carbon or nitrogen and T refers to surface terminations, such as -OH, -O, -F or -Cl. The unique properties of MXenes, including their tunable surface chemistry and high surface area-to-volume ratio, make them promising candidates for various biomedical applications, such as targeted drug delivery, photothermal therapy and so on. Among the family of MXenes, titanium (Ti)-based MXenes, especially TiCT, have been extensively explored for biomedical applications.

- Carcinosarcoma is a rare and aggressive malignant tumor of the uterus and ovaries, often confused with high-grade endometrial carcinoma due to similar symptoms.
- A study conducted between August 2021 and July 2024 analyzed six cases, confirming their diagnosis through a panel of immunohistochemical markers, with mean patient age being 51.5 years.
- Histologically, the tumors displayed a biphasic composition of carcinomatous and sarcomatous elements, with notable positivity for markers like cytokeratin and vimentin, highlighting their complex nature and aggressive behavior in elderly females.
