ocular involvement in lymphoma is a relatively rare condition that can result from a primary intraocular lymphoma or an intraocular manifestation of systemic lymphoma. lymphoma manifestations frequently masquerade as other more benign intraocular conditions including allergic or infectious conjunctivitis, uveitis, multiple evanescent white dot syndrome, acute retinal necrosis, or herpetic retin...

Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is an uncommon but highly malignant neuroendocrine tumor of the skin. MCC can metastasize, but involvement of the central nervous system is rare. Here, we report a case of rapidly progressing metastatic MCC to the clivus and bilateral cavernous sinus in an immunocompromised patient. This case is unique in that it is the first case report showing MCC metastasis to the...

The masquerade attack, where an attacker takes on the identity of a legitimate user to maliciously utilize that user’s privileges, poses a serious threat to the security of information systems. Such attacks completely undermine traditional security mechanisms, including strong authentication and intrusion detection, because the trust imparted in user accounts once they have been authenticated. ...

One way a malicious insider can attack a network is by masquerading as a different user. Various algorithms have been proposed in an effort to detect when a user masquerade attack has occurred. In this paper, two unsupervised algorithms are proposed with the intended goal of detecting user masquerade attacks. The effectiveness of these two unsupervised algorithms are then compared against super...

Skeletal deformities of the thorax are known to produce functional disturbances of the cardiovascular system. Most of these deformities are usually benign, the only manifestation being a functional prmcordial murmur. As many of these murmurs are loud, they are often detected during a routine clinical examination for symptoms not of cardiac origin, and an erroneous diagnosis of heart disease may...

The condition is indeed a rare entity that needs a multidisciplinar team management. Case hypothesis: A case of Persistent Mullerian Duct Syndrome undiagnosed at birth because karyotyping was defaulted, thus r...
