The SFE-AFCE-SFMN 2022 consensus deals with the management of thyroid nodules, a condition that is a frequent reason for consultation in endocrinology. In more than 90% of cases, patients are euthyroid with benign and non-progressive nodules that do not warrant specific treatment. The clinician's objective is to detect malignant thyroid nodules at risk of recurrence and death, toxic nodules responsible for hyperthyroidism or compressive nodules warranting treatment. The diagnosis and treatment of thyroid nodules requires close collaboration between endocrinologists, nuclear medicine physicians and surgeons but also involves other specialists. Therefore, this consensus statement was established jointly by 3 societies, the French Society of Endocrinology (SFE), the French Association of Endocrine Surgery (AFCE) and the French Society of Nuclear Medicine (SFMN); the various working groups included experts from other specialties (pathologists, radiologists, pediatricians, biologists, etc.). This specific text is a summary chapter taking up the recommendations from specific sections and presenting algorithms for the exploration and management of thyroid nodules.

With the results of several recently published clinical trials, this guideline informs on the use of adjuvant radiation therapy (RT) and systemic therapy in the treatment of endometrial cancer. Updated evidence-based recommendations provide indications for adjuvant RT and the associated techniques, the utilization and sequencing of adjuvant systemic therapies, and the effect of surgical staging techniques and molecular tumor profiling.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the fifth most common cancer worldwide and the fourth most common cancer among men in South Korea, where the prevalence of chronic hepatitis B infection is high in middle and old age. The current practice guidelines will provide useful and sensible advice for the clinical management of patients with HCC. A total of 49 experts in the fields of hepatology, oncology, surgery, radiology, and radiation oncology from the Korean Liver Cancer Association-National Cancer Center Korea Practice Guideline Revision Committee revised the 2018 Korean guidelines and developed new recommendations that integrate the most up-to-date research findings and expert opinions. These guidelines provide useful information and direction for all clinicians, trainees, and researchers in the diagnosis and treatment of HCC.

Nipple-areolar complex anomalies may be secondary to many etiologies from simple anatomic variations to malignant processes as Paget disease or invasive breast cancer, passing through benign locally aggressive processes as erosive adenomatosis of the nipple. Differential diagnosis is not always simple. If clinical exam and standard radiological checkup can't confirm the benignity of the lesion, a biopsy specimen will be obtained to allow an anatomopathological examination. A precise diagnosis can then be made leading to optimal management. This paper describes how to explore nipple-areolar complex anomalies through an uncommon clinical case associating independently an invasive retro-areolar cancer and a dermatological disease of the areola mimicking a Paget disease.

The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy for patients with advanced solid tumors that have DNA mismatch repair defects or high levels of microsatellite instability; however, the FDA provided no guidance on which specific clinical assays should be used to determine mismatch repair status.

BEST PRACTICE ADVICE 1: Forceps bite-on-bite or deep-well biopsies or tunnel biopsies can sometimes establish a pathologic diagnosis of SEL. BEST PRACTICE ADVICE 2: EUS is the modality of choice to evaluate indeterminate SEL of the GI track and/or if non-diagnostic tissue by forceps biopsies. BEST PRACTICE ADVICE 3: SEL arising from the submucosa can be sampled using tunnel biopsies (or deep-well biopsies), EUS guided fine-needle aspiration (FNA), EUS guided fine-needle biopsy (FNB), or advanced endoscopic techniques (unroofing or endoscopic submucosal resection). BEST PRACTICE ADVICE 4: SEL arising from muscularis propria should be sampled (preferably using FNB or FNA) to determine whether the lesion is a GIST or leiomyoma. Structural assessment and staining will allow differentiation of mesenchymal tumors and assessing their malignant potential. BEST PRACTICE ADVICE 5: Endoscopic resection techniques have been described for removal of SEL and should be limited to endoscopists skilled in advanced tissue resection techniques. BEST PRACTICE ADVICE 6: Management of each SEL depends on the size of the lesion, histopathology, their malignant potential, and presence of symptoms. BEST PRACTICE ADVICE 7: SEL that have an endoscopic appearance consistent with a lipoma or pancreatic rest and normal mucosal biopsies do not need further evaluation or surveillance. BEST PRACTICE ADVICE 8: For SEL arising from muscularis propria that are less than 2 cm in size, surveillance using EUS should be considered. BEST PRACTICE ADVICE 9: Gastric GIST larger than 2 cm should be considered for resection. BEST PRACTICE ADVICE 10: Subepithelial lesions that are ulcerated, bleeding, or causing symptoms should be considered for resection.
