Thyroid-originated pleomorphic rhabdomyosarcoma with novel TP 53 intron frameshift mutation: a case report and literature review. (PubMed, World J Surg Oncol)
Under specific circumstances, CNB can provide an effective diagnostic approach for thyroid tumors. Moreover, in this case, we identified a novel TP53 intronic mutation that may drive the development of thyroid PRMS.

Molecular pathology of testicular germ cell tumours: an update for practicing pathologists. (PubMed, Histopathology)
Alterations associated with the formation of a somatic-type malignancy and/or the development of cisplatin resistance include TP53 mutations or MDM2 gene amplifications as well as epigenetic alterations...Additionally, we will provide guidance on how to examine a testicular tumour specimen histopathologically to reach an accurate diagnosis. Finally, we will outline the importance of the content of a histopathological report for the urologists and oncologists.

Transformation Versus Ascertainment Bias of a Suprasellar Lesion: A Histopathologic Conundrum of BRAF V600E Positive Papillary Craniopharyngioma Versus Rathke's Cleft Cyst with Squamous Metaplasia: A Systematic Review. (PubMed, J Neurol Surg Rep)
Definitive diagnosis requires pathology, though sampling bias poses challenges. Advanced imaging (contrast-enhanced 3D T2-FLAIR MRI) and biomarkers (BRAF V600E, beta-catenin, p53, Ki-67) show promise in improving diagnosis, predicting recurrence, and guiding treatment.

Emerging therapies for glioblastoma. (PubMed, J Neurooncol)
Glioblastoma (GBM) remains associated with poor outcomes, with a median survival of 15-18 months despite maximal safe resection, radiotherapy, and temozolomide. CAR T-cell therapies are advancing toward bispecific and armored constructs with locoregional delivery, while oncolytic viruses such as DNX-2401 and PVSRIPO demonstrate potential for durable responses in select patients. Looking ahead, progress is likely to arise from biomarker-informed, multimodal regimens that integrate targeted agents, next-generation immunotherapies, and precision-guided strategies, while embedding translational endpoints into trial design to address the complex biology and therapeutic resistance of GBM.

PREVALENCE OF THE BRAF V600E MUTATION AMONG INDIGENOUS INDIVIDUALS WITH PAPILLARY THYROID CARCINOMA RESIDING IN A RADIATION-EXPOSED AREA. (PubMed, Georgian Med News)
The analysis revealed an association between the BRAF V600E mutation and papillary thyroid cancer in patients exposed to radiation from nuclear testing at the former SNTS. These findings offer new prospects for targeted therapy and early diagnosis of malignant thyroid neoplasms. Following the closure of the test site, positive developments in public health have been observed: radiophobia has decreased and the population's quality of life has improved. Furthermore, the adoption of iodine prophylaxis legislation and the country's industrial growth have contributed to improved well-being and better epidemiological outcomes for thyroid cancer in subsequent generations.

The Myriapod NGS panel aids in the preoperative assessment of thyroid nodules. Its high negative predictive value may help avoid unnecessary surgery, whereas the detection of specific mutations strongly correlates with malignancy, thus informing surgical planning.
