Intercostal artery aneurysms are a type of vascular abnormality that poses a potential risk of rupture, which could lead to life-threatening hemothorax. This case report presents a young male who experienced a rupture of an intercostal artery aneurysm and subsequently suffered from a massive hemothorax after engaging in strenuous physical activity. The current case study sheds light on the difficulties and lessons learned in managing such cases in peripheral settings, including the dilemma of whether to insert an intercostal chest drain (ICD).

Objective: This integrative review aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of nebulized tranexamic acid (TXA) in managing hemoptysis, assessing its potential as a non-invasive alternative to traditional invasive procedures.
Methods: An integrative review was conducted in accordance with PRISMA guidelines and was registered on PROSPERO (CRD42024584812). The search included databases such as PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, encompassing studies published up to August 7, 2024.

Paragangliomas, a type of extra-adrenal tumour, albeit rare, are dangerous due to their high metastatic potential and risk of hypertensive crisis from massive catecholamine release. It typically presents with sympathetic overdrive symptoms such as diaphoresis, headache, and palpitation, accompanied by substantially high plasma metanephrines level and mass on contrasted computed tomography abdomen and pelvis, whilst some are found incidentally. In this report, we discuss a case of an extra-adrenal lesion located near susceptible major structures with extensive vascularisation, in a patient with near-death experience.

Hemostasis is the initial step in wound healing, yet significant challenges, such as massive bleeding and infection, often arise. In this study, we developed amphiphilic biodegradable polyester-based segmented polyurethane (SPU) microspheres modified with epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG)-Ag nanoparticles and calcium-alginate cross-linking shell, combining blood absorption with the pro-coagulation properties of Ca and the negative charge of EGCG for synergistic hemostatic effects across various stages of the coagulation cascade. The in vitro blood clotting time of the SPU@EAg@CaAlg microsphere (328.

Introduction: The gold standard for treating the placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) is a cesarean hysterectomy, which harms fertility. Another conservative surgical approach allows the uterus to be preserved: one-step conservative surgery. We will compare these two approaches through the "CMNT PAS" study.
