An epidemic of a malignant neoplasm occurs in northern pike, Esox lucius L., from the Aland Islands of Finland. The neoplasm is morphologically similar to other pike hemic tumors reported in other areas of the world. Pike normal tissues showed evolutionary conservation with the mammalian intermediate filament proteins cytokeratin, desmin, vimentin, neurofilament protein, and glial fibrillary ac...

Caroli's disease is a rare autosomal-recessive disorder caused by malformation of the ductal plate during embryonic development. Although it is present at birth, Caroli's disease is typically not diagnosed until between the second and fourth decades of life, as it was in the present patient. Here we report a rare case of Caroli's disease limited to one liver segment, which was initially misdiag...

The excess release of mediators can cause clinical features such as pruritus, flushing, nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, abdominal pain, vascular instability and anaphylaxis. Also, complications may arise when mast cells accumulate in the skin, gastrointestinal tract, bone marrow, liver, spleen, and lymph nodes. [2] The clinical features of systemic mastocytosis are caused by accumulation of clonal...
