A 65-year-old man with multiple hepatocellular carcinomas in the liver with type C viral hepatitis had a solitary mediastinal lymph node metastasis in the right paratracheal to tracheobronchial region. Surgical resection for the mediastinal metastasis was undertaken based on magnetic resonance (MR) imaging findings, suggesting its radicality. We assess the MR imaging findings and presumable pathways of lymphatic metastasis from the liver to mediastinal lymph nodes in this report.

Objective: To analyze the clinical characteristics and molecular biomarkers of adult T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LBL) to identify prognostic factors, and to evaluate the efficacy of different chemotherapy regimens, providing a basis for optimizing treatment strategies for T-LBL.
Methods: A total of 89 Patients aged 18-72 years with T-LBL, confirmed via histopathological examination of lymph nodes, extranodal tissues, or bone marrow, were retrospectively included. Clinical data, treatment details, and mutational profiles were collected.

This study aimed to explore the risk factors for mediastinal lymph node metastases (MLNM) in patients with early-stage non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and to establish a predictive model. A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data from NSCLC patients treated at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University and the First Affiliated Dongguan Hospital of Guangdong Medical University between March 2021 and March 2023. Baseline clinical data, laboratory parameters, and pathological features were collected and analyzed.

Introduction: Transhiatal esophagectomy (THE) is used for specific gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinomas. THE is a high-risk surgical procedure. We aimed to assess the impact of postoperative sepsis (sepsis or septic shock) on the 1-year mortality after THE and to determine the risk factors associated with these outcomes.

We report a case of a 73-year-old man with minimally invasive lung adenocarcinoma, post-resection, evaluated with F-FDG PET/CT for suspected disease progression. Imaging showed increased FDG uptake in the right lower lung mass and systemic lymphadenopathy (mediastinal, supraclavicular, axillary, paraaortic, and iliac regions). The appearance of a stable lymph node and a clinical history of IgG4 lymphadenopathy suggested an inflammatory process, although malignancy in the lung mass and mediastinal nodes could not be excluded.

Objective: This retrospective study aimed to determine the need for lymph node resection during surgical treatment in patients with stage IA non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Materials And Methods: A total of 1428 patients diagnosed with cT1N0M0 1 A stage NSCLC who underwent surgery were divided into two groups: lymphadenectomy (n = 1324) and nonlymphadenectomy (n = 104). The effects of lymph node resection on overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS) and on clinicopathological factors that affected the prognosis of the patients were investigated.
