Primary liver cancer is characterized by closely related with chronic liver inflammation, thereby reversing hypoxic immunosuppressive microenvironment of tumor cell growth by immunotherapy drug is a potentially effective strategy. Camrelizumab is an anti-PD-1 antibody being developed by Jiangsu Hengrui Pharmaceuticals Co., Ltd. We reported a case of an adult critical Chinese patient with primary hepatocellular carcinoma and lung metastasis completely responding to Camrelizumab, most of the lesions were stable and no new lesions occurred after 1-year treatment, which provides us to reconsider the therapeutic effect of Camrelizumab on such patients. Camrelizumab had a safety profile for the patient in our case report, except for the occurrence of RCCEP. This case provides the evidence of the effective antitumor activity and manageable toxicities of Camrelizumab for patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma, which was the first application as far as we know.

Median mandibular cyst is defined as an odontogenic cyst in a rare midline location. In spite of this definition, there have been two reports of a peculiar lesion, so-called "ciliated" median mandibular cyst associated with vital teeth, the origin of which cannot be explained in terms of odontogenic epithelium multipotentiality. We describe a thorough profile of an additional example.

Background: Confabulation, the fabrication of details with short lucid intervals, hinders the diagnosis of Alzheimer's and other dementias. This case report explores the complexities of diagnosing and managing Alzheimer's dementia in a culturally diverse patient exhibiting fluctuating memory and confabulation, emphasizing challenges heightened by cultural and linguistic factors.
Case: An 84-year-old African descent man resided with his family in the United States, independent in his basic daily activities but struggling with instrumental tasks due to memory impairment.

Background: Mixed dementia type - Alzheimer's Disease (AD), cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA), and vascular - is vastly recognized as a cause of dementia in older adults. Whereas CAA, primarily leptomeningeal, is a frequent complication in hereditary transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis (TTRCA), it is unusually reported in association with wild-type TTR, with or without polyneuropathy. The knowledge of mixed dementia and wild-type TTR association is even scarcer.
