Unlabelled: Primitive neuroectodermal tumour is a poorly differentiated small round cell neoplasm that primarily affects children and is very rarely seen in adults. Peripheral primitive neuroectodermal tumours are rare compared to the central type and resemble soft tissue sarcoma. Primitive neuroectodermal tumours involving the subcutaneous tissue are rare and only a few cases involving the subcutaneous tissue of the anterior abdominal wall have been reported. However, no cases involving the subcutaneous tissue of the shoulder region have been reported. We report the case of a peripheral primitive neuroectodermal tumour arising from subcutaneous tissue of the right shoulder in a young adult.
Keywords: case report; magnetic resonance imaging; neuroectodermal tumour; neuron-specific enolase; subcutaneous tissue.

Background: Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a rare neurogenetic disorder with limited treatment options. Selumetinib, a MEK1/2 inhibitor, has emerged as a promising therapy for inoperable NF1-related plexiform neurofibromas.
Methods: Our retrospective pharmacovigilance study utilized the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) to comprehensively evaluate Selumetinib's safety profile in real-world settings.

Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is a rare but life-threatening soft tissue infection, often accompanied by severe systemic toxicity. Early detection and prompt treatment are critical for survival. We report a case of NF in a 53-year-old diabetic woman following a subcutaneous insulin injection in the thigh.

Background: Deep learning (DL)-based adipose tissue segmentation methods have shown great performance and efficacy for adipose tissue distribution analysis using magnetic resonance (MR) images, an important indicator of metabolic health and disease. The aim of this study was to evaluate the reproducibility of whole-body adipose tissue distribution analysis using proton density fat fraction (PDFF) images at different MR strengths.
Methods: A total of 24 volunteers were imaged using both 1.

Objectives: To investigate baseline patient characteristics associated with the risk of computed tomography (CT)-based sarcopenia and assess whether sarcopenia and other morphometric parameters influence survival outcomes in patients with liver metastases and cholangiocarcinoma after Yttrium-90 radioembolization.
Materials And Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 120 cancer patients (mean age, 62 ± 13.3 years, 61 men) who underwent preprocedural CT.

Calciphylaxis is a rare and serious disorder characterized by vascular calcification and occlusion of the microvessels in the dermis, subcutaneous adipose tissue, visceral organs, and musculature. Studies have suggested that the major risk factors for developing calciphylaxis are chronic kidney disease and secondary hyperparathyroidism. Its diagnosis is clinical, and the treatment includes a multidisciplinary approach, although there are no clinical protocols based on randomized clinical trials.
