We present a case of a 78-year old female who developed a pulmonary artery pseudoaneurysms causing hemoptysis after undergoing endovascular placement of a left atrial appendage occlusion device. The pulmonary arery pseudoaneurysm was treated with coil embolization.

Probiotics and Their Bioproducts: A Promising Approach for Targeting Methicillin-Resistant and Vancomycin-Resistant .

Antibiotic resistance is a serious global health problem that poses a threat to the successful treatment of various bacterial infections, especially those caused by methicillin-resistant (MRSA) and vancomycin-resistant (VRE). Conventional treatment of MRSA and VRE infections is challenging and often requires alternative or combination therapies that may have limited efficacy, higher costs, and/or more adverse effects. Therefore, there is an urgent need to find new strategies to combat antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
