Introduction: Osteosarcoma is the most common primary malignant bone tumor in childhood distinguished by its clinical aspects, epidemiological features, and radiological and histological findings. Around 10% of patients present with distant metastasis at the most frequent sites, which are lungs and bone. Furthermore, death rates for osteosarcoma have been declining by about 1.3% per year.
Case Report: We report the case of a 12-year-old child who presented to the emergency department with a large thigh hematoma, and after running all the necessary clinical investigations, it turned out to be secondary to femoral osteosarcoma.
Conclusion: In this case, our aim is to highlight the unusual clinical manifestations observed in a child with osteosarcoma, which can lead to a diagnosis delay and the subsequent impact on prognosis.

Objective: Neonatal skeletal articulations for research and display purposes are uncommon due to issues surrounding incomplete bone maturation and reduced structural integrity that affect the bone preparation and articulation procedures. The present project was designed to add to the veterinary literature on neonatal moose osteological specimens, document the procedures of preparing and articulating a delicate specimen, and construct a 3-dimensional (3D) scan of the articulated skeleton that could be used for scientific and veterinary research and study worldwide.
Animal: A neonatal moose that had succumbed to capture myopathy resulting from entanglement in a barbed wire fence was the sole subject of this project.

Atrial septal defects are among the most prevalent congenital anomalies necessitating surgical intervention. Thrombus formation is a recognized complication that is typically characterized by an embolic event following patch-based repair. However, thromboembolic complications following primary repair of atrial septal defects are exceedingly uncommon.

Isolated ophthalmoplegia as an anti-glutamic acid decarboxylase 65 (anti-GAD65) antibody-associated neurological syndrome is rare. We present a case of a 22-year-old pregnant Hispanic female patient who presented initially with a left oculomotor nerve palsy following an emergency department (ED) visit for migraine headache. Brain imaging was done with no important findings.

Peribronchiolar metaplasia is an uncommon lesion characterized by fibrosis and bronchiolar epithelial cell proliferation along the peribronchiolar alveolar walls, primarily in response to bronchiolar and peribronchiolar injuries. Peribronchiolar metaplasia usually appears as ground glass nodules or sub-solid nodules on computed tomography. However, we present an exceptional case of peribronchiolar metaplasia that appeared as a solitary solid nodule on computed tomography.
