Abstract:
A 36-year-old woman, unresponsive to pneumonia antibiotherapy followed by antituberculosis treatment, was referred to our clinic. Thorax computed tomography (CT) and positron emission tomography CT showed cystic mass and mediastinal lymph node with suspicion of malignancy. Fine needle aspiration biopsy and mediastinoscopy showed no malignancy, so the patient underwent an exploratory thoracotomy. A frozen section of wedge-resected mass was reported as adenocarcinoma, leading to right lower lobectomy with mediastinal lymph node dissection.

Abstract:
An adrenal mass discovered incidentally during imaging for unrelated clinical reasons is termed an “adrenal incidentaloma” (AI). AIs can be categorized as primary or metastatic, functioning or non-functioning, and benign or malignant. The primary goal of radiological evaluation is to exclude malignancy by differentiating between benign and malignant lesions. Most AIs are benign, with adenomas and macronodular bilateral adrenal hyperplasia being the most common types. Less common benign lesions include myelolipomas, pheochromocytomas, cysts, and hematomas. Malignant adrenal masses account for l

<strong>Background:</strong>&nbsp;Adnexal mass pathologies are mostly benign. Given the extremely low five-year survival rate of adnexal malignant tumors, early detection is imperative. There isn&rsquo;t a single, gold-standard investigation that can be used to diagnose adnexal cancer. The menopausal status (M), ultrasound scores (U), and serum CA 125 (U/ML) is combined to create the Risk of Malignancy Index (RMI) scoring system.

During routine antenatal ultrasound examinations, an ovarian mass can be found incidentally. In clinical practice, the differential diagnosis between benign and malignant ovarian masses is essential for planning further management. Ultrasound imaging has become the most popular diagnostic tool during pregnancy, with the recent development of ultrasonography. In non-pregnant women, several methods have been used to predict malignant ovarian masses before surgery.

Abstract:
Spinal cord and paraspinal mass lesions can be identified radiologically, allowing for the planning of treatment processes.Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is the most important non-invasive radiological method for identifying spinal lesions . Apart from its lack of ionizing radiation, MRI is used for diagnosing lesions affecting the spinal cord due to its high soft tissue resolution . Moreover, preoperative imaging of the brain and spine is mandatory to exclude cerebrospinal fluid displacing masses. Lesions within the spinal cord typically demonstrate contrast enhancement.

Abstract:
A teratoma (from the Greek terato for “monster” and onkoma for “mass” or “swelling”) is a type of neoplasm composed of tissues from two or three germ layers. Mature cystic teratomas (MCTs) constitute 70% of all ovarian neoplasms. They typically present with nonspecific symptoms such as pain and nausea. They account for approximately 2% of all primary ovarian malignant cancers and are predominately diagnosed via ultrasound. Computed tomography may be necessary if malignancy is suspected. Larger size warrants a higher suspicion of malignancy. Management is symptom control and ultimately, surgica

Introduction: Ovarian fibrothecomas represent an ovarian stromal neoplasm developing in a wide spectrum of clinical settings. These tumors have been described as rare ovarian neoplasm, accounting for about 4% of all ovarian tumors. We report a case whose clinical presentation was highly deceptive and was clinically and radiologically diagnosed as malignant ovarian tumor. Ascitic fluid cytology revealed absence of malignant cells. On histopathological examination, it was diagnosed as benign fibrothecoma with cystic changes. Postoperative follow-up for about six months was uneventful. Case: A 45

Enterocutaneous fistula may present as chronically discharging sinus and like any other chronic non healing wound, malignant transformation has rarely been reported in such gastrointestinal fistula. Herein we report an additional case of malignant transformation of enterocutaneous fistula leading to duodenal mass.

Abstract:
Soft tissue sarcomas are relatively rare neoplasms of mesenchymal origin that generally make up less than 2% of all adult malignant neoplasms. Atypical fibroxanthoma is a benign soft tissue tumor often confused with malignant variants of similar tumors such as leiomyosarcoma due to similar staining markers and cell morphology. We report a case of a 70-year-old caucasian male who initially presented with a 2 cm exophytic left facial lesion that was misdiagnosed as atypical fibroxanthoma upon biopsy. The patient underwent a wide local excision of the growing 11 cm mass and immediate reconstructi
