Primary hepatic leiomyosarcoma is a very rare tumor of the liver and primary hepatic leiomyosarcoma with Behcet's disease has not been reported previously. Behcet's disease is a multisystem disorder presenting with recurrent oral and genital ulcerations as well as ocular lesions; it has rarely been reported in association with malignant disease. We report a case of primary hepatic leiomyosarcoma with intrahepatic and abdominal subcutaneous metastasis in a patient with Behcet's disease; this is the first report of these findings in Korea.

Psychosocial Determinants and Outcomes of Expedited Liver Transplant Evaluations: Insights From a Retrospective Cohort Analysis.
Transplant Direct
February 2025
Department of Medicine, UMass Chan Medical School, Worcester, MA.
Background: As the burden of chronic liver disease and the demand for liver transplants (LT) grows, understanding the interplay between access to care and patient outcomes is increasingly important. In this study, we explored patient characteristics and transplant outcomes in patients undergoing LT evaluations, with a focus on identifying risk factors for expedited LT evaluation.
Methods: This single-center retrospective cohort study included patients who underwent LT evaluation for deceased donor LT between October 2017 and July 2021.
Multiorgan Dysfunction and its Association With Congestion and Outcome in Aortic Stenosis Treated With TAVI.

February 2025
Department of Internal Medicine II, Medical University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria.
Background: Degenerative severe aortic stenosis (AS) is treated by valve replacement to improve outcome. Despite diagnostic advancements, many AS patients are still diagnosed late with advanced heart failure.
Objectives: The aim of the study was to assess multiorgan dysfunction in severe AS using blood biomarkers and their association with quantitative fluid levels and clinical outcomes after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the most common primary liver cancer, is a highly aggressive malignancy with limited viable therapeutic options. For early HCC, resection surgery is currently the most effective treatment. However, in advanced stages, resection alone does not sufficiently address the disease, so finding a method with a better prognosis is necessary.

Remimazolam (Byfavo, Acacia Pharma), a recent Food and Drug Administration-approved ester-linked benzodiazepine, offers advantages in sedation, such as rapid onset and predictable duration, making it suitable for broad anesthesia applications. Its favorable pharmacological profile is primarily attributed to rapid hydrolysis, the primary metabolism pathway for its deactivation. Thus, understanding remimazolam hydrolysis determinants is essential for optimizing its clinical use.
