The frequency of hematospermia in transgender women is unknown, indicating a gap in current medical understanding. Join medical experts Tamar Reisman, MD, Clinical Endocrinologist at New York Presbyterian Weill Cornell Medical Center, and Sina Jasim, MD, MPH, ACCR Editor-in-Chief and Associate Professor of Medicine at Washington University School of Medicine, as they delve into a groundbreaking clinical case report titled "Hematospermia in a Transgender Woman with Evidence for Endometrial Tissue in the Prostate." Tune in as they discuss the highlights of the case, when to screen for endometriosis or ectopic Müllerian epithelial tissue growth in transgender women undergoing feminizing gender-affirming hormone therapy, and how to address challenges and barriers to patient care.

Thyroid disease affects approximately 20 million Americans, leading many patients to turn to the internet for answers. However, amidst the vast array of information available online, distinguishing accurate information can be challenging. Recognizing this necessity, the endocrine experts at AACE have developed "The Journey For Patients With Thyroid Disease," an innovative resource devoted to educating and empowering individuals with thyroid disease to navigate their condition, treatment plan, and wellness goals. In this podcast, endocrine experts Alex Tessnow, MD, ECNU, FACE, Cheryl Rosenfeld, DO, FACE, FACP, FSVM, ECNU, and Kenneth Izuora, MD, MBA, FACE, delve into the development, significance, and accessibility of this patient resource. Key topics discussed include the meticulous crafting of the journey into a meta-map using the latest AACE guidelines, the importance of providing patients with resources beyond the clinical setting, and how this resource serves as an invaluable tool for both patients and clinicians, providing timely updates on the latest clinical advancements for thyroid care. Support for this podcast was provided in part by AbbVie and Amgen Rare Disease.

Join endocrine expert Janet B. McGill, MD, MA, FACE, FACP, Professor of Medicine in the Division of Endocrinology, Metabolism and Lipid Research at Washington University School of Medicine, and moderator Sina Jasim, MD, MPH, ACCR Editor-in-Chief, Associate Professor of Medicine, and Endocrine Neoplasia Specialist at Washington University School of Medicine, as they discuss diabetes clinical case reports from the July/August 2023 issue of ACCR. Dr. McGill presents two key cases, MODY5 and Serous Ovarian Carcinoma in 17q12 Recurrent Deletion Syndrome, — a case of a young woman whose monogenic diabetes was diagnosed after a pathogenic ~1.8 Mb loss of 17q12 was found on the chromosomal microarray of her serous ovarian carcinoma and identifying a disease association not previously reported. The second case was on the maturity-onset of diabetes of the young (MODY), ABCC8-Related Monogenic Diabetes Presenting Like Type 1 Diabetes in an Adolescent, — a case of type 1 diabetes diagnoses during adolescence, and how the patient was treated with intensive insulin therapy for 17 years before genetic testing showed a pathogenic mutation of the ABCC8 gene.

Minimally invasive procedures are now more widely used for benign and some low-risk cancerous thyroid tumors. In certain cases of papillary thyroid microcarcinomas; and if those are positioned in a favorable location, Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) offers a less invasive treatment option compared to traditional surgical approaches. Listen to Leonardo Guimarães Rangel, MD, Head and Neck Surgeon in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and international expert in minimally invasive procedures in thyroid tumors, present his Visual Vignette on Radiofrequency Ablation of Papillary Thyroid Microcarcinomas,  moderated by Sina Jasim, MD, MPH, Associate Professor of Medicine, and Endocrine Neoplasia Specialist at Washington University School of Medicine. Key topics include procedure safety, determining the right patient and nodule candidate, follow-up care, challenges, and future outcomes.
