    Abstract Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC) is a severe, acute, reversible, and self-limited cardiac dysfunction. It usually affects postmenopausal women and is mostly triggered by physical or emotional stressors. Following the COVID-19 pandemic, millions of doses of different types of COVID-19 vaccines are being administered globally. There have been reports of different cardiac complications after receiving COVID-19 vaccines. To our knowledge, there have been 16 reported cases of COVID-19 vaccination-associated TTC. In this study, we first provide a brief overview of TTC and then an overview of selected reported TTC cases following COVID-19 vaccinations. It is crucial to highlight that the occurrence of TTC after vaccination does not establish a direct cause-and-effect relationship between immunization and TTC. Further investigations are necessary to examine any potential association between COVID-19 vaccines and the incidence of TTC. Additionally, the benefits of receiving COVID-19 vaccines significantly outweigh the potential risks of developing adverse events.

    Abstract Cavernous angiomas (CAs) are benign vascular malformations predominantly seen in the brain parenchyma and therefore referred to as intra-axial. Extra-axial dural-based cavernous angiomas, on the other hand, are rare vascular lesions found outside of the brain parenchyma. They occur in the middle fossa and may be easily misdiagnosed as meningiomas due to their extra-axial location. In addition, CAs that are located outside the middle fossa, such as in the convexity, have a better prognosis since they are more surgically accessible. Surgical resection is the main treatment of choice in CAs. However, other options, such as embolization and radiotherapy, may also be considered therapeutic choices or additive treatment options. The pathogenesis of CA and the involvement of other factors (genetics or environmental factors) are still unknown and require further investigation. We are presenting a young man who presented for evaluation of seizure-like events without any family history of neurologic conditions. The physical examination was unremarkable except for a slightly antalgic gait. Imaging studies showed an extra-axial left tentorial mass suggestive of a meningioma, hemangiopericytoma, or other extra-axial lesions. The lesion was resected where its vascular nature was mentioned initially, and the histology proved the diagnosis of cavernous angioma. Here we give an overview of the known pathogenesis, causes, clinical features, and diagnostic and therapeutic options in CA. Better knowledge about CA, its causes, clinical features, and treatment options would help clinicians in early diagnosis and patient management.

    Abstract Coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) vaccines are massively administered globally and some adverse events, such as myocarditis, are being reported. Most of the reported cases of post-vaccination myocarditis have occurred following mRNA vaccinations. However, there have also been recent reports of myocarditis following adenovirus vector vaccinations. We present a case of a 32-year-old female patient who developed myocarditis following the administration of the first dose of the AstraZeneca vaccine. The patient developed inappropriate exertional tachycardia and exertional dyspnea from Day 3 and was diagnosed with myocarditis by subsequent echocardiography about 3 months later. We are unable to confirm a direct association between myocarditis and AstraZeneca vaccination. However, we would like to increase awareness regarding the possibility of developing myocarditis following AstraZeneca vaccination.

    Abstract Granulomatous inflammation has been reported to be associated with Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Here, we report a case of recurrent diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) with extensive granulomatous inflammation that was initially misdiagnosed as granulomatous lymphadenitis. In 2019, a 75-year-old Caucasian male presented to our hospital with an enlarged right supraclavicular lymph node. He had a medical history of prostate cancer (in 2004), DLBCL (initially diagnosed in 2009), and rectal adenocarcinoma (in 2017), all of which responded well to treatment. In 2018, the patient had experienced right axillary adenopathy, weight loss, and intermittent night sweats. An excisional biopsy of a right axillary lymph node, performed at another institution, was diagnosed as granulomatous lymphadenitis. In 2019, at our hospital, an excisional biopsy of a right supraclavicular lymph node showed DLBCL in a background of granulomatous inflammation. A review of the prior right axillary lymph node biopsy also showed DLBCL with a background of extensive granulomatous inflammation. Chemotherapy was initiated and the patient's follow-up showed a good response. We report this case to raise awareness that granulomatous inflammation may obscure the diagnosis of some neoplasms, such as DLBCL, which are less commonly known to have granulomatous inflammation. This may result in delayed treatment and may ultimately affect outcomes.

    Abstract Infection with the SARS-CoV-2 virus causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). COVID-19 usually affects the lungs but may also involve other organs such as the heart. We report a case of a para-cardiac mass in a previously healthy 45-year-old male who developed persistent dyspnea following SARS-CoV-2 infection. The patient underwent cardiac surgery since the mass was attached to the pericardium and was causing constrictive pericarditis. The pathology report indicated an inflammatory pattern for the mass. Based on the authors' knowledge there has been no previous report of developing a para-cardiac inflammatory mass after SARS-CoV-2 infection. This report aimed to increase awareness regarding the possibility of developing a para-cardiac inflammatory mass following COVID-19.

    Abstract Introduction: Childhood cancers are usually treated with chemotherapy and radiation. Therefore, understanding the late side effects of such treatments is important to improve the quality of life in childhood cancer survivors. The present study aimed to investigate the late complications of treatments in childhood cancer survivors.
    Methods: This study is a retrospective descriptive study. A total number of 93 cases were enrolled in this study. These cases had a history of childhood cancer documented in their medical records at the Shafa Hospital, Ahvaz, Iran. The age range was 5.9-21.3 years and included 62 males and 31 female patients.
    Results: Many of the patients at this hospital with childhood cancer had experienced chemotherapy side effects as well as late effects of cancer therapy. Hypothyroidism is a late complication of therapy in thoracic cancers and head/neck tumors with relative frequencies of 23.1% and 12.5%, respectively. Scoliosis was observed in the patients undergoing the ABVD + COPP and 8/1 regimens with relative frequencies of 4% and 50%, respectively. Lower growth percentiles were also late side effects of cancer therapy. The highest relative frequency of growth retardation was observed in the <5 age group (46.7%). Restrictive lung changes had an overall relative frequency of 6.5% in male patients with all types of tumors. Sensorineural hearing loss was observed in patients with leukemia and Hodgkin lymphoma with relative frequencies of 8.7% and 24.0, respectively.
    Conclusion: The occurrence of most side effects could be decreased through early diagnosis, dose adjustment of some drugs, and preventative measures.

It has a wide range of clinical presentations (such as periorbital swelling as in our case) and should be considered in the differential diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus, especially in children.
