Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Spindle cell fibromatosis of the breast (SCFB) is a rare benign tumor that closely mimics malignancy on imaging and clinical examination. Accurate diagnosis relies on histopathology and immunohistochemistry, particularly β‐catenin staining, to guide appropriate management and avoid overtreatment while addressing its locally aggressive behavior

Incidental Rectus Abdominis Leiomyoma Discovered During Emergency Cesarean Section: A Rare Case Report From Northern Tanzania

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Uterine fibroids, also referred to as leiomyomas, are benign uterine tumors with a lifetime prevalence of approximately 75% depending on race, age, and a variety of genetic and environmental factors. Extra‐uterine leiomyomas are uncommon, and their occurrence within the rectus abdominis muscle is exceptionally rare.
