Uterine Leiomyosarcoma: A Diagnostic Dilemma
Abstract: Tumours that fall under the category of uterine malignancies include carcinosarcomas, leiomyosarcomas, endometrial stromal sarcomas, and undifferentiated sarcomas. Of them, leiomyosarcoma is the most common subtype, while still quite uncommon—it accounts for 1% to 2% of uterine cancers. Since postmenopausal bleeding is typically present in leiomyosarcomas, prompt detection is essential for successful treatment. This case study features a 50-year-old female patient who had postmenopausal bleeding, which is a common sign …

Platelets A Tiny Cell Fragments
Abstract: Platelets are disc-shaped, anucleate cells that are approximately 2-3 μm in diameter. Their primary function is to control hemostasis, or blood clotting, but they also play important roles in angiogenesis (the formation of new blood vessels) and innate immunity (the body's first line of defence against infection). With a diameter of just 2-3 microns, platelets are tiny, disc-shaped cells that lack a nucleus. While their main responsibility is to ensure …
