A Unique Presentation of Diffuse Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasm of Bile Duct Successfully Treated With Orthotopic Liver Transplant and Pancreaticoduodenectomy Procedure: A Case Report.

Biliary intraepithelial neoplasm (BilIN) and intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm of the bile duct (IPMN-B) are recognized as the two main precursors to biliary carcinoma. Surgical resection is the mainstay of treatment, with pancreaticoduodenectomy for extrahepatic biliary duct disease involving the pancreatic or distal portion of the bile duct, and bile duct and liver resection for perihilar and intrahepatic bile duct involvement. For diffuse IPMN-B with involvement of the entirety of the biliary epithelium of both intrahepatic and extrahepatic biliary systems, there is no well-documented consensus on treatment due to its rarity.

Presentation and Management of Pulmonary Sequestration With an Aneurysmal Aberrant Pulmonary Artery.

Bronchopulmonary sequestration presents rarely in adults and less frequently with an aneurysmal aberrant feeding artery. Treatment of bronchopulmonary sequestration generally involves lung resection with vascular ligation; however, aneurysmal disease increases the risk of intra- and postoperative hemorrhage and often necessitates more extensive surgery for vascular control. A 39-year-old female patient with a history of prior abdominal surgery presented with sudden onset epigastric and back pain.

The Clinical Frailty Scale can indicate prognosis and care requirements on discharge in oncology and haemato-oncology inpatients: A cohort study.

Objectives: Routinely used performance status scales, assessing patients' suitability for cancer treatment, have limited ability to account for multimorbidity, frailty and cognition. The Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS) is a suggested alternative, but research detailing its use in oncology is limited. This study aims to evaluate if CFS is associated with prognosis and care needs on discharge in oncology inpatients.

Anxiety and employment discrimination: Implications for counseling and return to work practice.

Background: The most prevalent mental health diagnosis is anxiety disorder, which remains largely undertreated.

Objective: This investigation considered differences in workplace discrimination against adults with anxiety disorders during two eras of legal history: the original Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA, 1990-2008) and the ADA Amendments Act (ADAAA, 2009-present).

Method: Research questions addressed differential (a) numbers and types of allegations, (b) case resolutions, and (c) demographic characteristics of the charging parties.

Comparison of radiation exposure and cost between dynamic computed tomography and sestamibi scintigraphy for preoperative localization of parathyroid lesions.

Importance: Dynamic computed tomography (CT) is emerging as a first-line alternative to sestamibi scintigraphy for preoperative localization of parathyroid lesions. In recent years, there has been increased concern over the impact of radiation exposure from medical imaging, as well as on the cost of diagnostic medical procedures. An ideal diagnostic procedure would be cost effective while minimizing hazardous exposures and complication rates.
