Cervical Retrieval of Giant Posterior Mediastinal Parathyroid Adenoma with Bizarre Morphology.
Sisli Etfal Hastan Tip Bul
December 2024
Department of Pathology, Izmir Katip Celebi University, Ataturk Training and Research Hospital, Izmir, Türkiye.
Parathyroid adenoma is the most common cause of primary hyperparathyroidism and rarely reaches huge sizes. As the gland enlarges it may exhibit atypical morphology and extension to the mediastinum which may complicate the excision of the tumor while preserving the capsular integrity. We present a 35-year-old male patient who was referred to our department with a complaint of severe hypercalcemia.

We herein report the first case of dyspnea with hemidiaphragm elevation in a 68-year-old woman with active giant cell arteritis (GCA), including successful treatment. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography showed a reduced density of the left ophthalmic artery and the left superficial temporal artery with increased soft tissue compared to the other side, indicating that the GCA had flared up and suggesting that the hemidiaphragm elevation might be caused by vasculitis-associated ischemia of the right phrenic nerve. Hemidiaphragm paralysis due to vasculitis-associated ischemia in patients with GCA needs to be distinguished from local infection, tumors, and hepatomegaly, which are the major causes of hemidiaphragm elevation.

Clinical Case: We present the case of a prenatally diagnosed hepato-omphalocele, without associated abnormalities. At week 37, botulinum toxin was injected in the right hemiabdomen under fetal and maternal sedation.
Constitutive deletion of the obscurin-Ig58/59 domains induces atrial remodeling and Ca2+-based arrhythmogenesis.

Obscurin is a giant protein that coordinates diverse aspects of striated muscle physiology. Obscurin immunoglobulin domains 58/59 (Ig58/59) associate with essential sarcomeric and Ca2+ cycling proteins. To explore the pathophysiological significance of Ig58/59, we generated the Obscn-ΔIg58/59 mouse model, expressing obscurin constitutively lacking Ig58/59.

Importance: Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children (MIS-C) is a life-threatening complication of COVID-19 infection. Data on midterm outcomes are limited.
Objective: To characterize the frequency and time course of cardiac dysfunction (left ventricular ejection fraction [LVEF] <55%), coronary artery aneurysms (z score ≥2.
