The Authors present the clinical case of a 41 years old patient, presenting since two years a right cervical swelling, progressively grown up in the last two months with tight-elastic thickness. Pre-operative diagnostic tests suggested the suspect of II branchial arch cyst. By surgery we removed a cystic formation that appeared, at histopathologic exam with a multi-stratified coating, surrounded by lymphoid tissue, organized in germinative centres, compatible with branchial cyst structure.

Introduction: Pancoast tumors encompass any tumor located on the lung apex, extending into structures in the thoracic inlet and, often, leading to the characteristic clinical syndrome. The main goal of this study is to analyze the response to multimodal treatment and outcome of patients with Pancoast tumors.
Materials And Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort single center study of patients with superior sulcus nonsmall cell lung carcinomas who underwent surgery between January of 2011 and February of 2022.

Background: In patients with breast cancer, prone radiation therapy (RT) has been shown to reduce heart and lung dose. Though prone positioning is routinely used for whole breast RT, its use when treating the regional lymph nodes (RLNs) is not widespread.
Methods: In this phase I-II trial for stage IB-IIA breast cancer treated with lumpectomy or mastectomy, patients received 40.

Radiation therapy is widely recognized as an efficacious modality for treating neoplasms located within the craniofacial region. Nevertheless, this approach is not devoid of risks, predominantly concerning potential harm to the neural structures. Adverse effects may encompass focal cerebral necrosis, cognitive function compromise, cerebrovascular pathology, spinal cord injury, and detriment to the neural fibers constituting the brachial plexus.

Background: Post-traumatic pseudomeningoceles are common findings after a brachial or lumbar plexus trauma, in particular after nerve root avulsion. Unlike meningoceles, pseudomeningoceles are CSF full-filled cysts confined by the paraspinous soft tissue, along the normal nerve course, in communication with the spinal subarachnoid spaces. Normally no more than a radiological finding at MRI, in rare instances they might be symptomatic due to their size or might constitute an obstacle during a reconstructive surgery.
