Contemporary Cytomegalovirus (CMV) Infections in Low-Risk CMV Seronegative Recipients of Solid Organ Transplants From CMV Seronegative Donors (D-/R-): Time to Reexamine Donor CMV Serostatus.

Division of Infectious Diseases, Department of Medicine, Duke University School of Medicine, Durham, North Carolina, USA.
Background: Early posttransplant cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections in CMV seronegative solid organ transplant recipients (SOTR) with CMV seronegative donors (D-/R-) are often attributed transfusion-transmitted CMV. The prevalence of false-negative donor CMV serology in D-/R- SOTR with early CMV infections has not been explored.
Methods: We determined the frequency and characteristics of CMV DNAemia that occurred within 90 days of transplant among adult SOTR classified as D-/R- who underwent a first SOT at a single center between February 25, 2014 and February 25, 2024.
Case report: A 51-year-old diabetic patient with primary bilateral macronodular adrenal hyperplasia and primary hyperparathyroidism.

A 51-year-old female patient with diabetes mellitus and hypertension, exhibiting poor control of blood sugar and blood pressure, was unexpectedly found to have multiple large adrenal nodules, excessive cortisol secretion, and adrenocorticotropic hormone inhibition. Cortisol levels remained unresponsive to both low-dose and high-dose dexamethasone tests, leading to a diagnosis of primary bilateral macronodular adrenal hyperplasia. Concurrently, elevated blood calcium and parathyroid hormone levels, along with 99mTc-methoxyisobutyl isonitrile (99mTc-MIBI) imaging revealing increased 99mTc-MIBI uptake in the right inferior parathyroid gland, suggest the consideration of primary hyperparathyroidism.

Introduction: IUDs are effective, reversible and safe methods of contraception. The mechanism of action of IUDs as a group is inducing endometrial atrophy, apoptosis, altering tubal motility; preventing sperm permeability, fertilization, and implantation. Complications of IUD include menstrual disturbance, pelvic pain, and increased risk of ectopic pregnancy with contraceptive failure, device expulsion, uterine perforation or transmural migration with misplacement of the device.

School of Dentistry, China Medical University, Taichung, 404, Taiwan, Republic of China.
Background: Maxillary canine impaction can result in malocclusion, temporomandibular joint complications, and esthetic concerns, thus influencing craniofacial development. Although cases of impacted canines are not uncommon in clinical practice, the likelihood of simultaneous bilateral impaction is extremely low; very few reports have documented cases of bilaterally symmetrical, inversely impacted canines.
Case Presentation: This paper reports a rare case of maxillary canine impaction, a condition characterized by the abnormal eruption of teeth.
Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma prognosis and outcome: report of two challenging cases.
J Cardiothorac Surg

Thoracic and Vascular Surgery Research Center, Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Shiraz, Iran.
Background: Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) is an uncommon vascular malignancy characterized by an unpredictable clinical course and a high potential for recurrence and metastasis. The lack of standard treatment guidelines, coupled with the tumor's inconsistent response to available treatments, complicates the management of EHE and leads to widely varying patient prognoses.
Case Presentation: We report two cases of EHE with distinct presentations reflecting the site of involvement.
