Unusual angiomatous or lymphangiomatous vascular malformations are rarely seen. One of them is lymphangioma (LA), which is a rare benign lymphovascular abnormality. LA is usually seen in the types of circumscriptum (or capillary), cavernous and cystic. Here, we report a unique case of LA with a patchy appearance. The patient presented due to unusual symptoms and eccentric clinical manifestation of the lesion. Here, we present a new lymphatic entity which was diagnosed as LA with its clinical, radiological and pathological findings...

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARSCoV-2) continues to be a worldwide healthcare problem. While our knowledge of the interaction of cancer and its management with COVID-19 mortality is gradually evolving, there are still many unanswered questions regarding the impact of COVID-19 on cancer and its prognosis. Several factors activated during COVID-19 have been implicated in tumorigenesis and the development of metastasis. Inflammation, hypoxia, reduced levels of angiotensin converting enzyme 2, elevated levels of Interleukin 6 and some other cytokines that are hallmarks of COVID-19 are capable of inducing tumor relapse and metastasis...

Common cardiovascular toxicities of sunitinib mainly include hypertension, QT prolongation, left ventricular dysfunction (LVD) and less frequently, congestive heart failure (CHF). Here, we report the case of a 67-year-old woman who developed heart failure after 24 months of sunitinib. Our case highlights the importance of strict and regular cardiovascular monitoring during sunitinib. It also shows that the reintroduction of sunitinib with maintaining heart failure treatment can be safe. The exact mechanisms of this cardiotoxicity have not been understood...
