“…While many reports have presented defining histologic and clinical features of ancient schwannoma, there are only a very few cases in the literature, to our knowledge, of ancient schwannoma presenting at the cauda equina. The current report of ancient schwannoma presenting at the cauda equina adds to the literature and discusses the identification of specific histologic characteristics, the role of conservative medical management, surgical resection, and prognostication in this select subset of patients.…”

“…Here, we have summarized recent advances in understanding the in situ immune response to cutaneous leishmaniasis: i) in North Africa caused by Leishmania (L.) major, L. tropica, and L. infantum, which caused in most cases localized autoresolutives forms, and ii) in French Guiana resulting from L. guyanensis and L. braziliensis, two of the most prevalent strains that may induce potentially mucosal forms of the disease. …”
