It was demonstrated in dog experiments that the drainage function of the heart lymphatic system and coagulation of the central lymph are disturbed in acute myocardial infarction. Drainage of the thoracic duct with diversion of the flow of the toxic lymph fails to correct the diminished rate of lymph flow in the myocardium and does not prevent the increase of the hypercoagulation shift in the lymph. It is concluded that lymph stimulation and correction of the disorder of the lymph coagulation potential are necessary for effective pathogenetic treatment of myocardial infarction.

Objective: Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA) is a highly lethal hepatobiliary malignancy with an increasing incidence annually. Extensive research has elucidated the existence of a reciprocal interaction between platelets and cancer cells, which promotes tumor proliferation and metastasis. This study aims to investigate the function and mechanism underlying iCCA progression driven by the interplay between platelets and tumor cells, aiming to provide novel therapeutic strategies for iCCA.

Division of Cardiovascular Medicine, Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio, USA.
Aims: The interstitial space is the major compartment in which the excess fluid is located, forming peripheral congestion in acute decompensated heart failure (ADHF). The lymphatic system is responsible for the constant drainage of the compartment. In ADHF, the inefficiency of this system causes extravascular fluid accumulation, underscoring the crucial role of lymphatic system failure in ADHF's pathophysiology.

Objectives: To investigate the diagnostic value of CT lymphangiography (CTL) and non-contrast MR lymphangiography (MRL) in lymphatic plastic bronchitis.
Materials And Methods: The clinical and imaging data of 31 patients with lymphatic plastic bronchitis diagnosed by clinical, imaging and pathological results were retrospectively analyzed. All patients underwent CTL and MRL.

Postoperative chylothorax is a serious complication after oesophagectomy. Real-time identification of the thoracic duct (TD) could prevent injury or facilitate prompt management when it occurs. Intraoperative TD lymphography with indocyanine green (ICG) is a novel technique that may help prevent chyle leaks following thoracic surgery.
