Mass of the vulva include both benign and malignant lesions. Benign mass lesions of the vulva include tumors, hamartomas, cysts, infectious disorders, and non-neoplastic epithelial disorders. Some are rare mass lesions. Here, we presented three rare mass lesions of the vulva. The first case presented with the complaint of vulvar lesion since childhood, while the two cases presented in reproductive age and perimenopausal age. All three cases presented as mass lesions in the vulva with pain or uneasiness during work. In all these cases, excision was done. On histopathological examination, the lesions have different diagnoses which are common in other parts of the body, but rarely present at the vulva. A definitive diagnosis of a vulvar mass lesion is difficult to make, especially in the case of rare mass lesion. Histopathology is the principal tool of diagnosis.

A 9-year-old mixed breed cat with a history of recurrent ulcerated skin lesions was diagnosed with nocardiosis. Three months after initiating potentiated sulfonamide treatment, the cat developed goitrous hypothyroidism, characterized by palpable enlargement of both thyroid lobes, low serum concentrations of total thyroxine (T4) and free thyroxine (fT4), and high serum thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) concentration. Thyroid scintigraphy identified symmetrical enlargement of both thyroid lobes, with increased radionuclide (Tc-pertechnetate) uptake.

ObjectiveAim of this study was to evaluate the 24 months follow-up data of the German Cartilage Registry (KnorpelRegister DGOU, GCR) regarding the influence of body mass index (BMI) on clinical outcomes after surgical osteochondral lesions of the talus (OCT) treatment.DesignA total of 303 patients met the inclusion criteria. Pre- and post-operative Foot and Ankle Outcome Score (FAOS) total scores, subscores, and ΔFAOS were analyzed for most frequent surgical techniques (bone marrow stimulation [BMS], matrix-augmented BMS, matrix-augmented BMS with additional bone grafting) in normal weight group (NW, BMI <30 kg/m, = 228) and obese weight group (OW, BMI ≥30 kg/m, = 75).

Background: Penile metastasis is an uncommon condition, with most primary malignancies originating in the abdominal cavity and pelvis. There have been very few reported cases originating from lung cancer, most of squamous cell carcinoma without small cell lung cancer.
Methods: We presented a case of penile metastasis secondary to small cell lung cancer, along with a review of relevant literature from the CNKI database.
