Mucinous cystic neoplasm of the liver
A 55-year-old woman was investigated for occasional epigastric pain and weight loss. T2-weighted abdominal magnetic resonance imaging and magnetic resonance cholangiography revealed a multilocular cyst with multiple septa and a solid component in the ...

INN: Inflated Neural Networks for IPMN Diagnosis [PDF]
Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) is a precursor to pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. While over half of patients are diagnosed with pancreatic cancer at a distant stage, patients who are diagnosed early enjoy a much higher 5-year survival rate of $34\%$ compared to $3\%$ in the former; hence, early diagnosis is key.

Benign tumours of the rete testis are uncommon and include mostly cystadenomas and adenomas, including a subset with tubular or tubulopapillary architecture. The latter show morphological similarities with Sertoli cell tumours and were previously termed Sertoliform cystadenomas of the rete testis.

Role of Endoscopy in Clinical Management of Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasms
ABSTRACT Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) of the pancreas is a well‐recognized precursor of pancreatic carcinoma. Along with cross‐sectional abdominal imaging tests, endoscopic examinations remain the cornerstone in the diagnosis of pancreatic cysts, early detection of IPMN‐derived carcinomas, and risk stratification of patients with ...

Comparative genomic analysis of the human gut microbiome reveals a broad distribution of metabolic pathways for the degradation of host-synthetized mucin glycans [PDF]
The colonic mucus layer is a dynamic and complex structure formed by secreted and transmembrane mucins, which are high-molecular-weight and heavily glycosylated proteins. Colonic mucus consists of a loose outer layer and a dense epithelium-attached layer. The outer layer is inhabited by various representatives of the human gut microbiota (HGM). Glycans

Demystifying “Hyaline Angiopathy” of Pulse Granuloma in Oral and Extraoral Surgical Pathology
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Pulse granuloma (PG), or giant cell hyaline angiopathy, is an immune‐mediated reaction often following the implantation of plant‐derived food particles. PGs are primarily found in the oral cavity and gastrointestinal tract and may represent a histopathological pitfall, being mistaken for other granulomatous conditions

Investigating conformation changes and network formation of mucin in joints functioning in human locomotion [PDF]
Many different processes take place to facilitate lubrication of the joints functioning in human locomotion system. The main purpose of this is to avoid destroying the articular cartilage. Viscoelastic properties of the joints system are very sensitive on both temperature and concentration changes because of the change in conformation presented in the ...

Prostaglandin E2: A Pancreatic Fluid Biomarker of Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasm Dysplasi [PDF]
Background With the increased frequency of diagnostic imaging, pancreatic cysts are now detected in >3% of American adults. Most of these are intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) with well-established but variable malignant potential.

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to describe the MRI features of the benign pancreatic neoplasm serous oligocystic adenoma (SOA) that differ from those of mucinous cystic neoplasm (MCN), a neoplasm with the potential for malignant degeneration.
