Clinical and radiological features of generalised lymphangiomatosis.

Hong Kong Med J

Department of Diagnostic Radiology, Princess Margaret Hospital, Laichikok, Hong Kong.

Published: October 2008

We report a paediatric patient who presented with fever, shortness of breath, and vague abdominal discomfort. Lesions removed surgically proved to be generalised lymphangiomatosis and were treated conservatively. The spectrum of abnormalities and radiological features are discussed.

Carcinosarcoma (CS), also known as metaplastic breast carcinoma with mesenchymal differentiation, is one of the five distinct subtypes of metaplastic breast cancer. It is considered as a mixed, biphasic neoplasm consisting of a carcinomatous component combined with a malignant nonepithelial element of mesenchymal origin without an intermediate transition zone. Although cellular origin of this neoplasm remains controversial, most researchers declare that neoplastic cells derive from a cellular structure with potential biphasic differentiation.

Purpose: Patients with stage I colorectal cancer (CRC) rarely experience recurrence after curative resection. Therefore, the risk factors for stage I CRC recurrence are yet to be established. We aimed to identify risk factors for stage I CRC recurrence.

Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement in Patients With Interventricular Membranous Septal Aneurysms.

JACC Case Rep

January 2025

Interventional Cardiology Section, Division of Cardiovascular Medicine, Department of Medicine, Stanford University School of Medicine, Stanford, California, USA.

Aneurysms of the interventricular membranous septum are a rare anatomical feature that can be detected incidentally on computed tomography or echocardiography. Such aneurysms can pose challenges in the treatment of patients with aortic valve stenosis. A case series of 2 patients with membranous septal aneurysms treated successfully with current-generation balloon-expandable and self-expanding transcatheter heart valves is presented here.

Introduction: The exponential growth of genomic datasets necessitates advanced analytical tools to effectively identify genetic loci from large-scale high throughput sequencing data. This study presents Deep-Block, a multi-stage deep learning framework that incorporates biological knowledge into its AI architecture to identify genetic regions as significantly associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD). The framework employs a three-stage approach: (1) genome segmentation based on linkage disequilibrium (LD) patterns, (2) selection of relevant LD blocks using sparse attention mechanisms, and (3) application of TabNet and Random Forest algorithms to quantify single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) feature importance, thereby identifying genetic factors contributing to AD risk.

Vasculitides represent a range of disorders marked by inflammation of blood vessels, often posing significant diagnostic challenges due to their diverse clinical presentations and involvement of multiple organ systems. We present the case of a 26-year-old woman who arrived with hemoptysis and a background of exertional dyspnea, chest pain, and occasional visual disturbances. Initial investigations showed elevated perinuclear anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (P-ANCAs) and myeloperoxidase antibodies (MPOs), indicative of microscopic polyangiitis (MPA).
