“…7 In cases with basaloid epithelial component (basal cell carcinosarcomas), markers such as BerEP4 and Bcl-2 have also shown positivity. 16 In addition, p53 has been reported to be overexpressed by both epithelial and mesenchymal components. 16 However, the case series by Kwak et al,11 showed such co-expression in only two of the 11 cases, with no expression in either component in one case, while four cases each had p53 expression in either the epithelial or mesenchymal component.The mesenchymal component may express vimentin, actin, CD10, CD34, and CD68, depending on its differentiation.…”

“…Spindle cell squamous cell carcinoma consists of malignant spindle cells with variable components of invasive squamous cell carcinoma. 16 If spindle cells are not clearly segregated to epithelial or mesenchymal components with expression of cytokeratin with or without p63, they are confirmed as spindle cell squamous cell carcinoma rather than carcinosarcoma. 14 , 16 Up to 40% of spindle cell squamous cell carcinomas express vimentin.…”

Albinism results from a deficiency of the protein responsible for melanin production in melanocytes. Albinos are at an increased risk of dermatoses and malignancies. Primary carcinosarcoma of the skin is an exceedingly rare biphasic tumor composed of malignant epithelial and mesenchymal elements with an unclear histogenesis. To our knowledge, this has not been reported in an African albino. Here, we report the index case of this rare tumor in an albino of African descent.

Background: Radiation protection is an important principle in some wards of the hospital such as radiology, catheterization laboratory and operating room. Due to the increasing use of radiation in the operating room, there is a need to design an accurate and appropriate tool to evaluate the radiation protection capability of operating room personnel.Objective: This study aims to test the psychometric properties of a questionnaire on radiation protection capability. Material and Methods:This cross-sectional study was conducted in two stages. The first stage was designing items based on the review of available literature, and the second stage was measuring the validity and reliability of the questionnaire using face validity and content validity Content Validity Index (CVI) and Content Validity Ratio (CVR). Then the questionnaire was filled out by 200 operating room nurses to evaluate the construct validity by Principal Component Analysis method. Reliability of the questionnaire was evaluated by test-retest and Cronbach's alpha analysis method.Results: Due to the results, test-retest correlation coefficient was 0.912, and Cronbach's alpha coefficient was 0.824, indicating a desirable internal consistency. Conclusion:This study introduces a valid and reliable questionnaire for evaluating the radiation protection capability of operating room nurses.
