A radial scar, formally radial scar of the breast, [1] is a benign breast lesion that can radiologically mimic malignancy, i.e. cancer. [2] Radial scar is associated with atypia and/or malignancy and may be an independent risk factor for the development of carcinoma in either breast. [3]
Since high risk features may already be evident in many high risk cancers, for example hormone-receptor negativity or HER-2 positive disease, the Oncotype test may especially improve the risk assessment that is derived from routine clinical variables in intermediate risk disease. [68]
Primary sclerosing cholangitis, a hardening of the bile duct by scarring and repeated inflammation. Systemic sclerosis (progressive systemic scleroderma), a rare, chronic disease which affects the skin, and in some cases also blood vessels and internal organs.

Nasu–Hakola disease also known as polycystic lipomembranous osteodysplasia with sclerosing leukoencephalopathy is a rare disease characterised by early-onset dementia and multifocal bone cysts. [1] It is caused by autosomal recessive loss of function mutations in either the TREM2 or TYROBP gene that are found most frequently in the Finnish ...
Nodular sclerosing Hodgkin lymphoma ("NSHL") or Nodular sclerosis is a form of Hodgkin's lymphoma [1] that is the most common subtype of HL in developed countries. It affects females slightly more than males and has a median age of onset at ~28 years.
Basal-cell carcinoma (BCC), also known as basal-cell cancer, basalioma [7] or rodent ulcer, [8] is the most common type of skin cancer. [2] It often appears as a painless raised area of skin, which may be shiny with small blood vessels running over it. [1]
Sclerosing epithelioid fibrosarcomas are aggressive tumors that usually develop in adults and elderly individuals [7] or, in a small minority of cases, children. [1] SEF tumors often occur in a shoulder, hip, or lower areas of the legs and arms or, less commonly, in a vital organ or other tissue location that may be in virtually any part of the ...
Embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma (ERMS) is the most common histological variant, comprising about 60–70% of childhood cases. It is most common in children birth to four years old, with a maximum reported incidence of four cases per million children.
