Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma is a low-grade malignant tumor of vascular origin. The rarity of hepatic epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (HEHE) makes the diagnosis and treatment of this entity challenging. We report a case of a 69-year-old female patient who suffered from HEHE and complained of abdominal distension pain with dizziness and appetite loss for more than half a month.

The incidence of lung cancer is the highest among all tumors, and treatment has become an urgent problem to be solved. The Drug-eluting bead-based bronchial arterial chemoembolization (DEB-BACE) combination immunotherapy is a rare neoadjuvant therapy for lung cancer surgery, which can significantly reduce the time it takes for lung cancer patients to undergo surgery.We report a male patient, aged 59-year-old, with Stage-III b squamous cell lung cancer accompanied by hemoptysis underwent surgical resection after DEB-BACE combination immunotherapy treatment 21 days later without obvious adverse events.

Background: Large-for-size syndrome (LFSS) is an uncommon but potentially lethal complication following adult liver transplantation (LT). Reduced-size liver transplantation (RSLT) is considered a valuable alternative to delayed fascial closure or mesh closure for preventing LFSS. In this article, we report a successful adult-to-adult RSLT case with right posterior graft sectionectomy using three-dimensional (3D) computer-assisted planning.
