Lipoblastoma and lipoblastomatosis are rare tumors of infancy. They originate from embryonic fat and localize in soft tissues. We present the case of a lipoblastoma of the neck with localization in tracheal and esophageal walls that required an extended laryngotracheal and esophageal resection. To our knowledge, this is the first report of such localization of this tumor.

Preservation of the azygos vein versus ligation of the azygos vein during primary surgical repair of congenital esophageal atresia.
Cochrane Database Syst Rev
January 2025
Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, Copenhagen University Hospital - Rigshospitalet, Copenhagen, Denmark.
Background: Esophageal atresia is one of the most common life-threatening congenital malformations and is defined as an interruption in the continuity of the esophagus with or without fistula to the trachea or bronchi. Definitive treatment is surgical ligation of the fistula if present and esophageal end-to-end anastomosis of the two pouches, thereby reconstructing the continuity of the esophagus. During this procedure, the surgeon may choose to either ligate or preserve the azygos vein, a major draining vein for the esophagus and surrounding structures, but no definitive consensus on the matter exists.

Background: Primary mediastinal liposarcomas (PLMs) are extremely rare. Patients typically present with symptoms caused by tumor size, as the mass can compress surrounding tissues and organs. Here, we report a case of a large primary mediastinal liposarcoma that was successfully resected thoracoscopically.

Background: Monitoring core temperature is important for patients under anesthesia. Esophageal and pulmonary artery blood temperatures can be used for measuring core temperature during general anesthesia. However, these methods pose challenges, especially when the placement of an esophageal thermometer and pulmonary artery catheter (PAC) is either impractical or not the preferred approach.

Department of Education and Research Center for Pharmacy Practice, Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Doshisha Women's College of Liberal Arts, Kyotanabe, Japan.
Background/aim: Despite the seriousness of lung adverse events (AEs) associated with lenvatinib, comprehensive data on these events remain limited. This study was conducted to examine the disproportionality, time to onset, incidence rates, and outcomes of lenvatinib-associated lung AEs using the Japanese Adverse Drug Event Report database.
Patients And Methods: We analysed data for the period from April 2004 to May 2023.
