We report a case of squamous metaplasia of the pleura observed in a 51 year old man. Squamous metaplasia of serosal surface, and in particular of the pleura, is uncommon. The pathogenesis of squamous metaplasia is obscure, but it may be associated with chronic irritation.

Retear patterns after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair are classified into two patterns according to retear location. Type 1 is when the retear pattern occurs directly on the tendon at the bone repair site using the suture anchor repair method. Type 2 is when the retear pattern occurs at the musculocutaneous junction with a healed footprint in patients who undergo the suture bridge method. Here, the authors report another retear pattern, which was identified as a type 2 retear on magnetic resonance imaging in patients who had undergone arthroscopic rotator cuff repair by the suture-bridge technique. This pattern was different from the type 2 retear and occurred at the portion of the cuff away from the healed rotator cuff under the view of the arthroscope.

Typical nephroblastoma arise within the renal parenchyme and have pseudocapsules composed of compressed renal tissue, renal capsule and adjacent perirenal tissue. Therefore, it is rarely possible to determine whether the tumor arose from the cortex or medulla. Many authors believe that they are probably cortical in origin and arise from nodular renal blastema just beneath the renal capsule or in the centers of columns of Bertin. We experienced a nephroblastoma supposed to arise from peripelvic region. The patient was a 7 months old male infant with an abdominal mass. Left nephrectomy was done under the impression of nephroblastoma. Received specimen was a diffusely enlarged kidney with preserved normal outline, so it looked like a hydronephrotic kidney. On section, the pelvis and calyceal system were dilated and totally filled with a gray white soft mass. Most portion of the mass was floating freely in the calyces and pelvis, and only a small portion was attached to the renal parenchyme but without invasion to it. Microscopically the mass was a nephroblastoma containing many well developed glomeruli and tubules. We presumed that the tumor arose from a nodular renal blastema in the peripelvic region, because the tumor had no connection to the renal cortex.
