Article Synopsis
- - Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) can spread to the lungs many years after a kidney has been removed, as seen in a case that occurred 16 years post-surgery.
- - If a pulmonary nodule is found in someone with a history of RCC, there is a risk that it may be a metastasis from the original kidney cancer.
- - It's important to suspect RCC lung metastasis in such cases and ensure that it receives the correct treatment.
Background: Cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is associated with a significant risk of postoperative renal dysfunction. We studied the utility of a novel biomarker in predicting acute kidney injury (AKI) in adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery.
Methods And Results: Blood and urine were obtained from 50 patients undergoing CPB-requiring surgery.
We describe a case of a recurrent pericardial effusion after coronary artery bypass grafting. This was initially considered to be due to post-pericardiotomy syndrome, but was later treated empirically as tuberculosis. After definitive surgery for this condition, pericardial histology and immunohistochemistry confirmed the diagnosis of tubercular pericarditis.
