Let isus integrate the expression:
Why? Any ideas?
**Edit: **
One can go to the cylindrical coordinates:
expr = Simplify[ TrigToExp[ I*y*(1/(x - I*y)^(5/2) - 1/(x + I*y)^(5/2)) /. {x -> r*Cos[\[CurlyPhi]], y -> r*Sin[\[CurlyPhi]]}], {r > 0, 0 < \[CurlyPhi] < \[Pi]}] (* (E^(-((7 I \[CurlyPhi])/ 2)) (-1 + E^(2 I \[CurlyPhi])) (-1 + E^(5 I \[CurlyPhi])))/(2 r^( 3/2)) *) and then integrate. In this case let us integrate it over the upper half-disk with the radius R=10:
Integrate[expr2*r, {r, 0, 10}, {\[CurlyPhi], 0, \[Pi]}] // N (* 2.41 *) and numerically
Quiet[NIntegrate[expr2*r, {r, 0, 10}, {\[CurlyPhi], 0, \[Pi]}, Method -> #]] & /@ {"LocalAdaptive", {"EvenOddSubdivision", Method -> "LocalAdaptive"}, "AdaptiveMonteCarlo", "QuasiMonteCarlo", "MonteCarlo", {"EvenOddSubdivision", Method -> "AdaptiveMonteCarlo"}, {"EvenOddSubdivision", Method -> "DuffyCoordinates"}} (* {2.41, 2.41, 2.43, 2.42, 2.28, 2.38, 2.41} *) In this case they have the same sign.

A discrepency between the analytical and numerical integration results
Let is integrate the expression:
I*y*(1/(x - I*y)^(5/2) - 1/(x + I*y)^(5/2)) over a rectangle in the (x,y) plane, where x varies from -10 to 10, while y varies from 0 to 10. This integral can be solved analytically:
I*Integrate[ y*(1/(x - I*y)^(5/2) - 1/(x + I*y)^(5/2)), {x, -10, 10}, {y, 0, 10}] % // N (* -(8/3) Sqrt[5] (2 Sqrt[2] + Sqrt[-1 + 5 Sqrt[2]] - \[Pi] - ArcCosh[3]) *) (* -2.31 *) The last line here is the numeric value of the integral that I will use for comparisons below.
Now let us try to solve it numerically with several methods
Quiet[Chop[ I*NIntegrate[ y *(1/(x - I y)^(5/2) - 1/(x + I y)^(5/2)), {x, -10, 10}, {y, 0, 10}, Method -> #]]] & /@ {"LocalAdaptive", \ {"EvenOddSubdivision", Method -> "LocalAdaptive"}, "AdaptiveMonteCarlo", "QuasiMonteCarlo", "MonteCarlo", {"EvenOddSubdivision", Method -> "AdaptiveMonteCarlo"}, {"EvenOddSubdivision", Method -> "DuffyCoordinates"}} (* {2.16, 2.16, 2.12, 2.26, 1.59, 2.33, 2.18} *)
Some of these methods do not, but some give warnings. I quieted them just to focus on the essential.
What strikes the eye here is that while the result of the exact solution is negative, the numerical result is positive.
