Invasive cribriform carcinoma is a rare type of invasive breast carcinoma, and few cases have been reported. Its features are a cribriform pattern resembling the histological structures of cribriform ductal carcinoma in situ and an excellent prognosis. However, the extent of progress for intraductal extension must be carefully evaluated.

Primary neuroendocrine carcinoma of the breast is an extremely rare tumor. We present our experience of primary neuroendocrine carcinoma of the breast in a 76-year-old woman. Surgical biopsies from breast and axillary lymphadenopathy showed a neuroendocrine carcinoma. Immunohistochemical staining of tumor cells with GCDFP15, NSE and chromogranin were positive. Computed tomography scans of the chest and abdomen showed no lesion for metastasis or another primary origin. Adjuvant hormone therapy was given, since the tumor was immunohistochemically receptor positive.

This case report describes a 38-year-old male who was hospitalized for further clarification of clinically mild hyperthyroidism. His increased total hormone levels, the elevated free thyroid hormones and the elevated basal TSH with blunted response to TRH strongly suggested a pituitary adenoma with inappropriate TSH incretion. Transmission computed tomography showed an intrasellar expansion, 16 mm in diameter. The neoplastic TSH production was confirmed by an elevated alpha-subunit and a raised molar alpha-sub/ATSH ratio. However, T4 distribution on prealbumin (PA, TTR), albumin (A) and thyroxine binding globulin (TBG) showed a clearly increased binding to PA (39%), indicating additional prealbumin-associated hyperthyroxinemia. The absolute values of PA, A and TBG were within the normal range. After removal of the TSH-producing adenoma, basal TSH, the free thyroid hormones and T4 binding to prealbumin returned to normal. Therefore, the prealbumin-associated hyperthyroxinemia had to be interpreted as a transitory phenomenon related to secondary hyperthyroidism (T4 shift from thyroxine binding globulin to prealbumin) rather than a genetically conditioned anomaly of protein binding.

Obturator hernia is a rare pelvic hernia which accounts for 1% of all abdominal hernia. Clinical manifestation is ussually unspecific. Obturator hernia is often diagnosed by computed tomography or ultrasound. We present a case of obturator hernia in an elderly women who was successfully diagnosed and treated at Hue Univeristy of Medicine and Pharmacy. Key words: obturator hernia, mechanical obstruction, intestinal obstruction, Richter obturator hernia, strangulation

Background: Hemolymphangioma is a rare benign tumor. To the best of our knowledge, there were only 10 reports of this tumor of the pancreas until March 2018. Case Report: Here, we reported a large invasive hemolymphangioma of the pancreas in a young woman with a complaint of abdominal distension and an epigastric mass about 3 weeks. She was found to have a huge multilocular cystic tumor at the neck and body of pancreas on computed tomography. She was eventually diagnosed with hemolymphangioma of the pancreas after operation. After 2 years of follow-up, there was no signs of recurrence. Conclusion: From our case and literature, we can conclude that hemolymphangioma of the pancreas is uncommon benign tumor, and it is hard to make an accurate diagnosis preoperatively. Radical surgical resection should be performed whenever possible. The prognosis of this disease seems good.
