Usefulness of tumor perfusion on cone-beam CT after hepatic arterial infusion port implantation for evaluating tumor response to hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy in hepatocellular carcinoma treatment
CONCLUSION: Hyperperfusion tumors on CBCT showed a better tumor response to HAIC, with a 65% ORR in patients with HCC. Tumor perfusion on CBCT after implantation of the hepatic arterial infusion port was associated with the tumor response to HAIC.PMID:37695260 | DOI:10.4274/dir.2023.232311

Life-threatening gastrointestinal bleeding caused by perforation of a penetrating atherosclerotic ulcer into the esophagus
We present a case of life-threatening gastrointestinal bleeding caused by a penetrating atherosclerotic ulcer (PAU) that ruptured into the esophagus. A 65-year-old man presented with pyrexia and nausea. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) performed on admission revealed a hematoma between the lower esophagus and descending aorta due to a contained rupture of a PAU, which was undiagnosed at that time. Esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) performed on the fifth day of admission revealed a subepithelial lesion in the lower esophagus, further complicated by ulcer formation. Biopsy did not reveal any malignant findings. On t...

A Comprehensive Review of Myocardial Bridging: Exploring Diagnostic and Treatment Modalities
Cureus. 2023 Aug 8;15(8):e43132. doi: 10.7759/cureus.43132. eCollection 2023 Aug.ABSTRACTMyocardial bridging (MB) is a congenital coronary artery anomaly involving an overlying myocardium's partial or complete encasement of a coronary artery segment. The obstruction can lead to significant cardiac symptoms, resulting in myocardial ischemia, arrhythmia, and sudden cardiac death. Several approaches, including invasive and non-invasive methods, have been proposed to diagnose and manage MB. Invasive modalities, such as intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and coronary angiography, offer high specificity and sensitivity. In contrast...

The burden of abdominal pain after bariatric surgery in terms of diagnostic testing: the OPERATE study
CONCLUSION: The diagnostic burden in patients with abdominal pain following BS is high. The most frequently performed diagnostic test is an abdominal CT scan, yielding the highest number of diagnoses in these patients.PMID:37696732 | DOI:10.1016/j.soard.2023.08.006

Case Report: Nocardia amamiensis Infection Leading to Worsening of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Symptoms in an Elderly Man
Am J Trop Med Hyg. 2023 Sep 11:tpmd230284. doi: 10.4269/ajtmh.23-0284. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTNocardiosis is a rare opportunistic infection mostly affecting the lungs, brain, or skin of immunocompromised individuals. Most pulmonary nocardiosis patients present with nonspecific clinical features such as productive cough, exertional dyspnea, and fever. The disease is uncommonly suspected, especially in tuberculosis-endemic regions, and clinical diagnosis is often delayed, resulting in high mortality. Pulmonary nocardiosis in apparently immunocompetent individuals is uncommon. Here, we present the case of an elderly ge...

Role of 68Ga-pentixafor positron emission tomography/computed tomography imaging in assessing disease activity in patients with lupus nephritis: A pilot study
CONCLUSION: 68Ga-pentixafor PET is not a suitable imaging modality for assessment of disease activity in lupus nephritis patients. There is a void in non-invasive testing for patients with this chronic and often disabling condition which calls for further research in this area.PMID:37691452 | DOI:10.1177/09612033231201625
