Screening for pulmonary nodules (PN) using low-dose CT has proven effective in reducing lung cancer (LC) mortality. However, current treatments relying on follow-up and surgical excision fail to fully address clinical needs. Pathological angiogenesis plays a pivotal role in supplying oxygen necessary for the progression of PN to LC.

Background: Lymph node upstaging represents a quality criterion for standardized lymphadenectomy in lung cancer surgery. The aim of the study was to compare whether the quality of standardized lymphadenectomy in lung cancer surgery is comparable in minimally invasive (video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery) and the open approach (thoracotomy). Furthermore, factors associated with lymph node upstaging were assessed, as was its impact on overall survival and progression-free survival.

Germ cell tumours are usually found in the gonads, while the most common extragonadal site is the anterior mediastinum. When these tumours involve the tracheobronchial tree, patients present with trichoptysis or coughing up of hair. We present a rare case of a woman who presented with trichoptysis and was evaluated and diagnosed with benign mature teratoma of the anterior mediastinum with bronchopulmonary involvement.

Breast cancer patients who develop brain metastases have a high mortality rate and a massive decrease in quality of life. Approximately 10-15% of all patients with breast cancer (BC) and 5-40% of all patients with metastatic BC develop brain metastasis (BM) during the course of the disease. However, there is only limited knowledge about prognostic factors in the treatment of patients with brain metastases in breast cancer (BMBC).

State Key Laboratory for Diagnosis and Treatment of Infectious Diseases, National Clinical Research Center for Infectious Diseases, National Medical Center for Infectious Diseases, Collaborative Innovation Center for Diagnosis and Treatment of Infectious Diseases, The First Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, 79 Qingchun Rd., Hangzhou City, 310003, China.

Background: Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is an emerging infectious disease characterized by leukopenia and thrombocytopenia, and aspergillosis is a common complication in severe cases. Previous studies have reported cases of SFTS complicated with invasive pulmonary aspergillosis (IPA) and central nervous system aspergillosis. Here, we present the first case of an immunocompetent patient with SFTS who progressed to IPA and Aspergillus endocarditis after glucocorticoid treatment, and embolism of the vegetations from the left ventricle led to multiple infarctions in the brain, kidney, and spleen.
