CONCLUSION: The complications and outcome of the cystectomy are comparable to the lobectomy technique. However, the cystectomy method has the advantage of preserving the lung tissue, therefore it's a favourable technique in endemic areas for hydatid cysts where reoperation may be indicated.PMID:38576968 | PMC:PMC10990369 | DOI:10.1097/MS9.0000000000001823 (Source: Annals of Medicine)

Kaposi sarcoma-induced immune reconstitution syndrome: a case report
CONCLUSION: HIV patients with KS undergoing ART initiation or modification should be closely monitored, particularly during the early stages and in those with extensive disease. Treating opportunistic infections before ART initiation may reduce the risk of KS-IRIS. The increasing prevalence of KS in ART-treated patients with HIV warrants further attention and highlights the need for better management strategies in this population.PMID:38576974 | PMC:PMC10990315 | DOI:10.1097/MS9.0000000000001842 (Source: Annals of Medicine)
