A fiberoptic examination is recommended at the end of lung transplantation for bronchial toilet and to check the bronchial anastomoses. This procedure permitted detection of a 10 × 4-mm piece of plastic of unknown origin in the left lingular bronchus and suggests that bronchoscopy should be performed before implanting the transplanted lung.

The efficacy of immunotherapy in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is significantly hindered by its low immunogenicity and immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. Non-invasive photodynamic therapy (PDT) is increasingly recognized as a potential immunotherapeutic stimulant in the treatment of TNBC. However, photodynamic immunotherapy is constrained by tumor hypoxia and excessive inflammation suppression during the course of treatment.

However, post-transplant pulmonary complications remain a significant cause of morbidity and mortality. Pulmonary Function Tests (PFTs) are essential for the early detection of pulmonary dysfunction, yet their application in pediatric HSCT recipients has yielded inconsistent results.

LAM is a rare multi-cystic lung disease for which treatment with sirolimus is indicated in cases of moderate or severe lung disease or declining lung function. The aim of this study was to describe patients treated with sirolimus for LAM and their outcomes. This retrospective observational study was based on data from the French national health insurance data system (SNDS).

Aim: The lungs represent the second most common site of colorectal cancer metastases. Although surgery is commonly considered the best treatment, many other invasive and noninvasive procedures and treatments have been adopted to improve patient survival and there is no clear evidence in the literature of which is the more effective. The aim of this work was to identify which treatment confers the best gain in overall survival for patients with pulmonary metastases from colorectal cancer.
