Primary squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the liver, a notably uncommon type of cancer, is frequently linked with diverse hepatic conditions including hepatic cysts, hepatolithiasis, and hepatic teratoma. Literature indicates that only approximately 30 cases of primary SCC of the liver have been documented. Herein, we report a 54-year-old previously healthy patient who was presented with cholangitis symptoms. Examinations revealed normal vitals. However, deranged liver function with transaminitis and hyperbilirubinemia were noticed. A CT scan showed a hepatic mass with bile duct dilation. Biopsy confirmed hepatic squamous cell carcinoma, leading to chemotherapy treatment. Despite treatment, the survival outcomes for this cancer remain limited, and the prognosis is generally unfavorable.

Background: Recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) have significantly enhanced the capabilities of endoscopic-assisted diagnosis for gastrointestinal diseases. AI has shown great promise in clinical practice, particularly for diagnostic support, offering real-time insights into complex conditions such as esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.
Case Summary: In this study, we introduce a multimodal AI system that successfully identified and delineated a small and flat carcinoma during esophagogastroduodenoscopy, highlighting its potential for early detection of malignancies.

Introduction: Primary cilia play an important role in the development of cancer by regulating signaling pathways. Several studies have demonstrated that women with mutations have, on average, 50% fewer ciliated cells compared with general women. However, the role of tubal cilia loss in the development of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) remains unclear.

Background: Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is one of the most common types of cancer worldwide and immune checkpoint inhibitors have shown favorable therapeutic effects in recurrent or metastatic or locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (R/M/LA HNSCC). However, the effects of immunotherapy in HNSCC are still inconsistent because of complicating factors. This meta-analysis tries to provide a more precise assessment of the efficacy and safety of this integrated approach in HNSCC.

Background: Keratoacanthoma is a relatively rare skin tumor, with vulvar keratoacanthoma being even more uncommon. Although the majority of keratoacanthomas exhibit a benign course, a subset of cases may show features of malignant potential, such as marginal invasion and recurrence.
Case: An 82-year-old female presented with a rapidly growing exophytic lesion on the left vulva, measuring 1.
