Diagnosis of maternal Hodgkin lymphoma following abnormal findings at noninvasive prenatal screening test (NIPT): Report of two cases.

Abnormal NIPT results, contrasting with normal fetus development, could disclose maternal malignancy, and this possibility should always be explained during pretest counseling. In this case, a complete diagnostic assessment is recommended and should be managed by a multidisciplinary team to define the best timing for diagnostic procedures, delivery, and treatment.

Artificial intelligence and radiomics enhance the positive predictive value of digital chest tomosynthesis for lung cancer detection within SOS clinical trial.

Objective: To enhance the positive predictive value (PPV) of chest digital tomosynthesis (DTS) in the lung cancer detection with the analysis of radiomics features.

Method: The investigation was carried out within the SOS clinical trial (NCT03645018) for lung cancer screening with DTS. Lung nodules were identified by visual analysis and then classified using the diameter and the radiological aspect of the nodule following lung-RADS.

Adrenal Incidentalomas are Tied to Increased Risk of Diabetes: Findings from a Prospective Study.

Context: The frequency of adrenal incidentalomas and their association with comorbid conditions have been assessed mostly in retrospective studies that may be prone to ascertainment bias.

Objective: The objective of this work is to evaluate the frequency of adrenal incidentalomas and their associated comorbid conditions.

Design: A prospective cohort study was conducted.

Robotic wedge resection of a rare gastric perivascular epithelioid cell tumor: A case report.

Background: Perivascular epithelioid cell tumor (PEComa) is a rare mesenchymal neoplasm that can arise in many different organs with a broad spectrum of biological behavior, from indolent to aggressive progression. Only ten cases of gastric PEComas have been reported in the English literature, which were treated with endoscopic, laparoscopic, or open resections. Due to its rarity, the optimal surgical management and prognosis of this tumor are still uncertain.

Comparison of digital tomosynthesis and computed tomography for lung nodule detection in SOS screening program.

Purpose: To compare the lung nodules' detection of digital tomosynthesis (DTS) and computed tomography (CT) in the context of the SOS (Studio OSservazionale) prospective screening program for lung cancer detection.

Materials And Methods: One hundred and thirty-two of the 1843 subjects enrolled in the SOS study underwent CT because non-calcified nodules with diameters larger than 5 mm and/or multiple nodules were present in DTS. Two expert radiologists reviewed the exams classifying the nodules based on their radiological appearance and their dimension.

Diagnostic accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging in patients with suspected pulmonary embolism: A bivariate meta-analysis.

Background: Computed tomographic pulmonary angiography (CTPA) has simplified the diagnostic approach to patients with clinically suspected pulmonary embolism (PE), but alternative imaging tests are still advocated. We aimed to systematically assess the diagnostic accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for PE diagnosis.

Methods: Studies evaluating the diagnostic accuracy of MRI for the diagnosis of PE were systematically searched in the PubMed and EMBASE databases (up to May 2016).

Lung cancer detection with digital chest tomosynthesis: first round results from the SOS observational study.

Objective: Baseline results of the Studio OSservazionale (SOS), observational study, a single-arm observational study of digital chest tomosynthesis for lung cancer detection in an at-risk population demonstrated a detection rate of lung cancer comparable to that of studies that used low dose CT scan (LDCT). We present the results of the first round.

Methods: Totally 1,703 out of 1,843 (92%) subjects who had a baseline digital chest tomosynthesis underwent a first round reevaluation after 1 year.

Lung cancer detection with digital chest tomosynthesis: baseline results from the observational study SOS.

Introduction: Observational studies consistently support strategies for early cancer diagnosis and treatment. Owing to its high prevalence, mortality rate, and easily identifiable at-risk population groups, lung cancer seems ideal for early detection programs. We present the baseline results of the SOS study, a single-arm observational study of digital chest tomosynthesis for lung cancer detection in an at-risk population.

It sometimes happens: late tracheal rupture after total thyroidectomy.

Thyroidectomy is a safe procedure often performed either for benign or malignant thyroid diseases. Complication rate is low and tracheal injury associated with thyroidectomy is rarely described. The trachea may be perforated or lacerated intraoperatively; nevertheless, damage is usually recognized and directly repaired with reduced patient morbidity.

Surgical treatment of an aneurysm originating from a Kommerell's diverticulum in the right-sided aortic arch with retroesophageal component.

We report the case of a 41-year-old man presenting with a large Kommerell's diverticulum aneurysm in the right-sided aortic arch with retroesophageal component and moderate thoracic aortic dilation. Surgical treatment was performed through left thoracotomy and consisted of aneurysmectomy, closure of the distal aortic arch defect and aorta-left subclavian artery bypass. After 2 years computed tomography showed no modifications in the thoracic aortic morphology and the patency of the graft to the subclavian artery.
