Introduction: Chronic sclerosing sialadenitis is a relatively uncommon disorder of the salivary gland. Because of its clinical similarity to a salivary gland neoplasm, this condition has been known as Kuttner tumor and is classified as a tumorlike lesion. Case Report: This is the first reported case of bilateral Kuttner tumor of the submandibular glands in Iran. It was initially diagnosed as...

Tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) staging is the most commonly used model for evaluating therapeutic strategies for papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). Additionally, different histopathological patterns and variants of PTC have been reported to influence the prognosis of these patients. We reviewed the clinical presentation, cancer recurrence, and cancer-specific mortality of the most frequent histologic...

OBJECTIVE The aim was to demonstrate a diagnostic challenge of sclerosing mesenteritis initially considered as liposarcoma. CLINICAL PRESENTATION AND INTERVENTION A 45-year-old man was admitted with a painful abdominal mass. Abdominal computed tomography demonstrated a well- demarcated tumor in his left hemiabdomen, with a large fat component and areas of soft tissue attenuation suggestive of...

Sclerosing lobular hyperplasia of the mammary gland is an uncommmon benign lesion which is mainly seen in adolescents and young women. The breast lobules are enlarged due to ductal and acinar proliferations but they have normal architecture. There is extensive fibrosis of the intralobular stroma, and to a lesser degree, of the interlobular parenchyma. Patients generally complain of a palpable, ...

Sclerosing hemangioma of the liver is an unusual tumor type. Because of its rarity and atypical radiologic findings, sclerosing hemangiomas can be difficult to distinguish from other lesions such as hepatocellular carcinoma, cholangiocarcinoma, metastasis, and organized abscesses. In this issue, we present a case consisting of both hepatic sclerosing hemangioma and cavernous hemangioma in a 63-...

Gastrointestinal stromal tumours are the most common mesenchymal neoplasms of gastrointestinal tract. They should be differentiated from other types tumours. GISTs harbour specific activating mutations in KIT or platelet-derived growth factor receptor a (PDGFRA) tyrosine kinases, which makes them responsive to pharmacologic inhibitors. The advances identification GISTs, by its molecular and imm...

The diagnosis of a testicular sclerosing Sertoli cell tumor is rare. Approximately 17 cases have been previously described in the literature worldwide. We present a case and review the evaluation and surgical management of a sclerosing Sertoli cell tumor presenting in a 26 year-old African-American adult, in association with testicular microlithiasis and oligospermia. Imaging techniques and the...
