PSMA PET is increasingly being used in imaging of recurrent prostate carcinoma. A case with suspected recurrent Prostate carcinoma (PCa), raised PSA (Prostate specific antigen) and suspected spinal metastases was referred for whole body Ga-68-PSMA PET/MRI. The study revealed PSMA avid recurrent prostate mass and extensive osseous metastases. Abnormal PSMA uptake in the thyroid gland prompted USG-guided FNAC which revealed Hurthle cell neoplasm. Histopathological examination (HPE) of excised gland showed multiple Hurthle cell adenomas in both lobes of thyroid along with foci of papillary thyroid carcinoma which on immunohistochemistry were thyroglobulin positive and PSA negative.

Background: Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) typically responds well to a combination of treatments with favorable prognosis in children 1 to 9 years old. However, infants may fare worse due to receiving less aggressive local therapy for concerns about long-term effects of surgery/radiation. This study investigates the clinical characteristics, treatment approach, and survival outcomes of RMS in children under 2.

Introduction: The introduction of novel robotic platforms has expanded surgical options for robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). However, comparative outcomes with da Vinci multiport (MP) system remain unclear. This systematic review and network meta-analysis aimed to compare perioperative, early oncological, and functional outcomes of RARP performed with novel robotic platforms versus the da Vinci MP system.

Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are a category of cancer cells endowed with the ability to renew themselves, undergo unregulated growth, and exhibit a differentiation capacity akin to that of normal stem cells. CSCs have been linked with tumor metastasis and cancer recurrence due to their ability to elude immune monitoring. As a result, targeting CSCs specifically may improve the efficacy of cancer therapy.

In biochemically recurrent prostate cancer (BRPC), no definitive independent prognostic factors were reported. This study aimed to identify the factors impacting overall survival (OS) in patients with BRPC after radical prostatectomy (RP). Among 610 consecutive patients who underwent RP between January 2000 and December 2019, with follow-up through December 2024, 152 (25%) patients who developed BRPC were analyzed.

Aims: We aimed to analyze CD63, a cell surface protein that has been associated with tumor aggressiveness in several cancers, including breast, colorectal, and lung cancer, as well as melanoma, in prostate cancer.
Methods: CD63 expression was analyzed immunohistochemically in a cohort of primary prostate cancers from 281 patients. The results were correlated with clinico-pathologic parameters, including biochemical recurrence.
