Lung Ultrasound in COVID-19: Clinical Correlates and Comparison with Chest Computed Tomography.

Lung ultrasound (LUS) and chest computed tomography (chest CT) are largely employed to evaluate coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pneumonia. We investigated semi-quantitative LUS and CT scoring in hospitalized COVID-19 patients. LUS and chest CT were performed within 24 h upon admission.

Adenocarcinoma in the Intrathoracic Transposed Colon.

Patients who had esophagectomy with colon interposition for benign disease have long survivals. Adenocarcinoma arising in the interposed colon is a possible event. We describe a 65-year-old woman in whom we performed 37 years ago an esophagectomy with left colon interposition for lye-induced strictures.
