Multiple therapies currently exist for renal cell carcinoma, however, most do not result in cure and the development of acquired resistance is rule rather than exception. CDK4/6 PIM1 kinases are potential new therapeutic targets RCC. Abemaciclib a potent kinase inhibitor, thus we evaluated effects abemaciclib on carcinoma. In vitro, causes decreased cellular viability, increased apoptosis, alterations autophagy carcinoma lines. A pre-clinical mouse model RCC shows combination with sunitinib...
Prostatic ductal adenocarcinoma is an uncommon form of prostatic carcinoma. We report a case 63-year-old man who presented with non-infective thrombotic (marantic) endocarditis and incidental finding destructive lesion in the left iliac crest. Core biopsy showed carcinoma papillary architecture was initially diagnosed as "metastatic unknown origin". The patient experienced cerebral infarction expired six days later. Postmortem examination revealed extensive mixed acinar (Gleason score 5 + 4...
Key Clinical Message Non‐lupus full house nephropathy is a rare entity that still poorly understood. It can complicate post‐transplant kidneys and result in de novo process. Treatment difficult but be possibly achieved with optimization of immune suppression. Abstract an unclear incidence. describes the kidney biopsy findings positive deposits for IgG, IgA, IgM, C3, C1q on immunofluorescence absence classical diagnostic features systemic lupus nephritis. This disease becoming more recognized...

Traumatic neuromas are benign nerve sheath tumors resulting in overgrowth of fibers severed ends which the axons to Schwann cell fascicles approaches a near 1:1 ratio. They occur when has been injured and continuity cannot be reestablished. that arise penis rare difficult differentiate from condylomata without histopathologic analysis. Here, we present case patient presents with two ventral penile lesions excisional biopsy histologic analysis proved diagnostic curative.
Background: Complement-mediated hemolytic uremic syndrome (CM-HUS), formerly known as atypical HUS, is a rare but potentially fatal thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) characterized by the triad of thrombocytopenia, microangiopathic anemia (MAHA), and acute kidney injury. It primarily caused complement dysregulation. The condition can progress to end-stage renal disease (ESRD), often necessitating transplant. In instances, it develop in post-renal-transplant patients. Methods: Here, we present...
Cerebral vein thrombosis (CVT) is a potentially fatal neurovascular disease that most commonly affects young women of child-bearing age. The risk CVT has been reported to be increased by combined oral contraceptive (COC) use. Inherited thrombophilic conditions including factor V Leiden (FVL) and prothrombin G20210A mutation also increase the CVT. Several studies have shown combination factors COC use plus an inherited disorder increases in multiplicative fashion. World Health Organization...
Urothelial melanosis is an exceptionally rare diagnosis, with less than 25 cases being reported in the literature. Melanosis of urothelium characterized by abnormal melanin deposition within tissues, producing a black, velvety appearance to urothelial mucosa. We present 67-year-old male undergoing cystoscopy during routine percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL), who was found have diffuse bladder extending up ureter and into renal pelvis. To our knowledge, this first case synchronous upper...
