https://www.selleckchem.com/products/asn007.html The use of immune checkpoint inhibitors has dramatically improved the chance of surviving malignant melanomas; however, the effect comes at the cost of toxicities that are difficult to predict. Immune-mediated hepatitis is the most common form of liver toxicity, but fatal outcome is uncommon. We report the case of a 70-year-old female with metastatic malignant melanoma who developed severe liver toxicity characterized by bile duct injury and cholestasis. The condition progressed despite potent immunosuppressive treatment, plasmapheresis, and intensive supportive care; and the patient died while still having tumor response.Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) is a disease in which the immune system attacks platelets and causes decrease in its number exposing the patient to risk of bleeding. It is diagnosed by exclusion. Eltrombopag is a thrombopoietin receptor agonist which is used as second-line treatment for patients with ITP. The usual starting dose is 25 mg daily and maintenance dose is 75 mg daily. Little is known about the dose of eltrombopag in patients with sleeve gastrectomy since reduction in the amount of functioning gastrointestinal tract after gastric bypass surgery leads to decreased time to drug absorption and reduced drug bioavailability. Here we are reporting a 46-year-old female with ITP and sleeve gastrectomy who responded to low-dose eltrombopag 25 mg every other day, which is equivalent to 12.5 mg daily, and maintained adequate platelet counts on this dose.Soft tissue sarcomas are common neoplasms accounting for 1% of all adult malignancies; however, soft tissue sarcomas infrequently arise from the abdominal viscera. Many case reports discuss gastric and esophageal neoplasms. In the group of gastrointestinal liposarcomas, primary duodenal liposarcomas are among the rarest, with only three previous cases reported in the literature. Herein, we discuss a case of primary duodenal liposarcoma. A 59
