The gynecologist considers the answer inadequate. Why?

At the autopsy of a 70yrs old male the prostate is enlarged, measuring 85gr, 6-7cm in diameter. The cut surface shows lobular architecture and preserved capsule. The prostate part of the urethra is folded and narrow. The urinary bladder shows hypertrophy of the muscle layer. Bladder mucosa is hyperemic and covered with fibrino-purulent exudate. Both ureters and pyelon are dilated. The kidneys are enlarged, but the parenchyma is thin. What is the diagnosis of the changes in the prostate and kidneys

30yrs old male patient, married with no children is admitted for surgery due to a right sided inguinal hernia. The right testis could not be palpated. The ultrasound reveals hypo-echogenic area measuring 5/5cm behind the urinary bladder. CT scan shows a mass measuring 2/1cm in close proximity to the inguinal canal. The tumor is resected. The histology shows 2 types of cells - large, highly atypical and monstrous, and small spindle shaped cells set among the blood mass. No stroma is seen. The human chorionic gonadotropin is highly elevated. What is the diagnosis

A 22 yr old female felt a painless nodule on the right side of her neck. She reported she underwent ionizing therapy years ago for a capillary hemangioma. Histologically, 3 lymph nodes structures were identified, entirely replaced by thyroid tissue. Some of the follicles show papillary structures, in which the lining epithelium is with large, vesicular, optically ''empty'' nuclei. Some of the papillae show calcium deposits. After the biopsy, thyroidectomy followed. What is your diagnosis of the findings in the lymph node

CT reveals retroperitoneal tumor measuring 10/5/3cm, set above the kidney. Grossly, the tumor is lobular, tan-yellow, lacking a capsule. Histology shows nested structure. Tumor cells are with pale, vacuolar cytoplasm with centrally located nuclei. Cellular atypia is observed, large 'monstrous' cells are seen. Tumor emboli are found in the veins.

The lost consciousness his blood pressure dropped, the heart rate was rapid and arrhythmic. The boy died 16hrs after onset of the symptoms. The cerebrospinal fluid shows plenty of leucocytes, protein and coccoid flora-Neissria meningitides. The autopsy reveals large suprarenal glands transformed in to hemorrhagic 'pouches'. The brain shows to remarkable changes, mainly edema and small hemorrhages. Which is the main disease
