Febrile neutropenia is a frequent complication in cancer patients and affects nearly 80% with hematological malignancies and 10%-50% with solid malignancies occurring most frequently during the first chemotherapy cycle. Bacterial Bloodstream Infections (BSIs) accounts for 10% to 25% of all febrile episodes and is considered the most common among the infectious complications in febrile neutropenic patients due to the lack of adequate inflammatory response and makes sepsis a significant cause of mortality in this particular setting.

Globally, breast cancer continues to be the most prevalent cancer among women, and the second cause of cancer death among women worldwide. The lesions of the breast are characterized by varying amounts of mucin secretion, ranging from benign to malignant conditions. This is a retrospective comparative study, aimed to detect the presence of mucin and its types and intensity in non-mucinous breast carcinoma compared to benign neoplasms. One hundred blocks were previously diagnosed as non-mucinous breast carcinoma and another 100 benign neoplasms were taken from different hospitals in Khartoum state. The sections were stained using combined PAS-alcian blue at different pHs and examined using a light microscope.
