breast sarcomas have relatively been rare and accounted for 1% of all primary malignant tumors of the breast. pure and primary chondrosarcoma of the male breast would be an extremely rare tumor. it might arise either from the breast stroma itself, or from underlying bone or cartilage. a 65-year-old man has presented with a rapidly growing breast mass since 5 months. physical examination has est...

Masses in the breast can be located in digital mammogram images by computationally analysing various feature statistics from the image. Any algorithm used to analyse digital mammogram images can be both time-consuming and errorprone because many areas of these images appear to have features that are mass-like but not masses. Thus false positives are produced which detract from the effectiveness...

Introduction: Granular cell tumours (GCT), also known as Abrikossoff’s tumours, are rare, and occur in the breast in approximately 5-6% of the cases these tumours are usually benign with only 1% of malignancy. Case Presentation: A 57-year-old Caucasian woman presented with a palpable mass that was growing progressively in the axillary tail of the left breast, with no other associated symptoms, ...

Malignant granular cell tumor is a rare neural tumor characterized by abundant granular-appearing tumor cells. These tumors account for <2% of all granular cell tumors. Unlike its benign counterpart, a malignant granular cell tumor presents primarily in the lower limb and is notably larger. Both the uncommon occurrence of malignant granular cell tumors and its similarities in feature with their...

A 9-year-old female spayed mixed-breed dog was presented to the referring veterinarian with a history of decreased appetite and difficulty with prehension and swallowing because of a firm oval mass in the tongue. On cytologic evaluation of a fine-needle aspirate of the mass there were numerous round to polygonal cells organized individually or in loose clusters with rare branching capillaries. ...

Large landslides exhibit surprisingly long runout distances compared to a rigid body sliding from the same slope, and the mechanism of this phenomena has been studied for decades. This paper shows that the observed long runouts can be explained quite simply via a granular pile flowing downhill, while collapsing and spreading, without the need for frictional weakening that has traditionally been...

Introduction: Granular cell tumors are rare neoplasms, which can be either benign or malignant. They are often discovered as incidental findings on imaging. Case: 34-year-old smoker, with complaints of fever, chills; malaise was found to have a posterior mediastenal mass on chest imaging. EBUS guided FNA of the mediastenal mass revealed histopathologic features consistent with benign granular c...
