Desmoplastic small round cell tumor is a rare and very aggressive neoplasm that belongs to the family of "small round blue cell tumors". It has a higher incidence in males in the second decade of life. It is due to translocation t(11;22) (p13;q12). It can be located both in the abdomen and in the retroperitoneum and is characterized by nonspecific symptoms. The treatment is very varied and the one that guarantees the total cure of the patient has not yet been detected. The objective of this study is to expose a clinical case of desmoplastic tumor as an rare abdominal disease and its imaging expression.

At the core of assays to understand the role(s) of specific genes is the ability to stably transfer genes into Phytophthora through transformation. A key method for achieving this has been based on polyethylene glycol (PEG)/CaCl transformation of protoplasts, but efficiency has often been low. Improving transformation efficiency is necessary for many applications, such as gene knockouts.

Carbapenem-resistant (CRE) is an emerging global concern. Specifically, carbapenemase-producing (CP) strains in CRE have recently been found in clinical, environmental, and food samples worldwide, causing many hospitalizations and deaths. Their rapid identification and characterization are paramount in control, management options, and treatment choices.

Autologous skin grafts are the gold standard for definitive wound coverage in burn care, but allograft skin grafts are essential for providing temporary coverage in cases of extensive burns. The Helsinki Skin Bank, established in 1995 at the Helsinki Burn Centre, is Finland's only licensed skin bank, serving a population of 5.5 million.

A 40-year-old woman presented with a mass in her OS for 2 years. Examination revealed a large conjunctival lesion on the nasal bulbar conjunctiva OS and a small upper tarsal conjunctival lesion in the OD. Biopsy OD revealed inflammatory granulation tissue, and OS revealed pseudoepitheliomatous hyperplasia with granulation tissue.

Purpose: Analysis of autofluorescence holds promise for brain tumor delineation and diagnosis. Therefore, we investigated the potential of a commercial confocal laser scanning endomicroscopy (CLE) system for clinical imaging of brain tumors.
Methods: A clinical CLE system with fiber probe and 488 nm laser excitation was used to acquire images of tissue autofluorescence.
