Tissue expression of human epididymal secretory protein 4 may be useful in the differential diagnosis of uterine cervical tumors [PDF]
Objectives: Human Epididymal Secretory Protein 4 was firstly described as an epididymis-specific protein but more recently it has been demonstrated to be a putative serum tumor marker for different malignancies, especially ovarian epithelial cancers. The

A Case Report of Aggressive Angiomyxoma in the Buttock of a Female
ABSTRACT Aggressive angiomyxoma presents distinctive MRI features like “whirl sign” and “layering sign.” Laparoscopic combined with perianal incision can minimize bleeding and organ damage risks for pelvic‐extending tumors. Surgical excision with negative pressure drainage aids wound healing. Long‐term follow‐up is crucial to prevent recurrence.
