Methods: We performed retrospective clinicopathologic study of fourteen cases intracranial PCN at our institution encountered over 26-year-period. Results: The patients ranged age 30-74 years (median 66 years) included seven males. For eight patients, their lesions were initial presentation multiple...
Medical practice requires physicians to have a broad understanding of the basic sciences, competent clinical skills, and an ability in evolving health systems cost-effective evidence-based manner. Essential medicine is common laboratory tests use them effectively. The Laboratory Tests for Education (ELTME) concise document explaining pathophysiology context each test was developed response expressed need from medical students, residents fellows, educators. ELTME linked Pathology Competencies...
Peripheral NK/T-cell lymphoma (PNKTCL) represents a group of uncommon diagnoses for children in Western countries, and studies have often necessitated multiple institutions to assemble enough cases. We retrospectively analyzed 11 cases nonanaplastic PNKTCL over 19 years at our institution with comparison several published large multi-institutional studies.

Although tethering of the spinal cord in lumbosacral region, particularly following repair congenital anomalies, such as myelomeningocele, is a well-known phenomenon, only sporadic reports along rest neuraxis, including hindbrain, cervical and thoracic have been documented. In this report, we describe woman who developed symptoms related to 5 years after suboccipital decompressive surgery posterior fossa for Chiari I malformation. The authors discuss diagnosis, treatment, postoperative course entity.
Introduction: Intracranial plasmacytoma (IP) arising from the skull, dura, or brain is a rare presentation of plasma cell dyscrasia.Proper diagnosis IP important for subsequent work-up and management after neurosurgery.Usually described in isolated case reports, we present series cases order to better understand behavior these tumors.Methods: A retrospective clinicopathologic study 13 diagnosed between 1998 2015 was performed through review patient medical records pathology findings.Results:...
