Fibroepithelial stromal polyp of bladder-a mimicker of sarcoma or angiomyxoma at uncommon location.

The fibroepithelial stromal polyp is a benign polypoid proliferation of the stroma with overlying epithelium. Because the lesion contains atypical stromal cells, sometimes it can be overdiagnosed as sarcoma or with myxoid stroma, it can be misdiagnosed as angiomyxoma. The reported locations are mainly in the lower female genital tract, urethra, and rarely extragenital sites, such as the breast, and are exceptionally rare in the bladder.

Differential Detection of O-GlcNAcylated proteins in the heart using antibodies.

Thousands of mammalian intracellular proteins are dynamically modified by O-linked β-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc). Global changes in O-GlcNAcylation have been associated with the development of cardiomyopathy, heart failure, hypertension, and neurodegenerative disease. Levels of O-GlcNAc in cells and tissues can be detected using numerous approaches; however, immunoblotting using GlcNAc-specific antibodies and lectins is commonplace.

Spectrum of thyroid disease in a single patient: A case of papillary thyroid carcinoma in a patient with Graves' disease and Hashimoto's thyroiditis.

A 65-year-old man with a history of Hashimoto's thyroiditi on Levothyroxine developed Graves' disease with ocular symptoms and was treated with teprotumumab without improvement. Total thyroidectomy was performed to control hyperthyroidism. Surgical pathology revealed multifocal papillary thyroid carcinoma.

Differentiation of intracranial Rosai-Dorfman histiocytosis from meningioma using MR perfusion.

Intracranial Rosai-Dorfman disease may be indistinguishable from meningioma. This distinction is essential, as they are treated very differently. We present two cases where perfusion imaging helped make this distinction, allowing one to be treated successfully without craniotomy.
