Macrotrabecular-massive hepatocellular carcinoma (MTM-HCC) is a rare and aggressive molecular subtype of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) associated with a poor prognosis. Unlike typical HCC, which commonly arises in the context of cirrhosis, MTM-HCC can develop in non-cirrhotic livers, presenting unique diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. This case report describes a 35-year-old male who presented with persistent epigastric pain, fatigue, and loss of appetite.

Felty's syndrome (FS) is a rare and complex condition most commonly seen as a complication of longstanding rheumatoid arthritis (RA), characterized by a triad of RA, splenomegaly, and neutropenia. Diagnosing FS can be challenging due to its diverse clinical presentations and overlap with other hematologic and autoimmune conditions. We report a 47-year-old male with a history of severe anemia, recurrent blood transfusions, and a chronic leg ulcer.

However, existing methods often require tailored protocols for individual modalities, limiting their automation potential and clinical applicability. To address this, we introduce UDA-seq, a universal workflow that integrates a post-indexing step to enhance throughput and systematically adapt existing droplet-based single-cell multimodal methods.

Rationale: Aortoesophageal fistula (AEF) is an exceedingly rare yet critically life-threatening condition, with mortality rates nearing 100% if not addressed promptly. AEF often develops in the context of thoracic aortic aneurysms, esophageal malignancies, or as a complication of foreign body ingestion and prior thoracic aortic surgeries. This study reports an exceptionally severe and clinically rare case of AEF associated with a pseudaneurysm induced by esophageal stenting.
