A Case of a Large Brain Metastasis: Time for Multidisciplinary Consultation.

Department of Neurosurgery, Radboud University Medical Center, Nijmegen, NLD.
Patients with complex diseases are mostly treated in a multidisciplinary setting. The impact of multidisciplinary care cannot be emphasized enough as it has the potential to significantly increase survival and, in some cases, help avoid a risky treatment approach. The aim of this case illustration is to emphasize the importance of multidisciplinary treatment and learn from the different approaches that can be made while treating such patients.

Purpose: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are stable, non-coding RNAs with tissue- and developmental-specific expression making them suitable biomarkers for congenital anomalies. Current circRNA discovery pipelines have focused on human and mouse. We aim to bridge this gap by combining bioinformatics resources and used circtial1 as a model candidate in the nitrofen rat model of congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH).

: This study aims to evaluate long-term physical and motor performance in children aged 3-6 years following congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) surgery, in comparison with healthy peers. While existing research emphasizes prognostic factors such as the lung to heart ratio (LHR) and liver position, few studies address physical outcomes in early childhood post-surgery. : A total of 31 children who underwent neonatal CDH surgery (study group) and 41 age-matched healthy children (reference group) were assessed.

Fetoscopic endoluminal tracheal occlusion (FETO) induces lung growth and may improve survival in congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) but the effect on post-natal right (RV) and left (LV) ventricular size and cardiac function is unknown. Quantitative measures of heart size and function including tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion Z-score (TAPSEZ), RV fractional area change (RVFAC), RV global longitudinal and free wall strain (RVGLS, RVFWS), RV/LV ratio, LV eccentricity index (LVEI), and LV M-mode diastolic and systolic Z-scores (LVIDDZ, LVIDSZ) were compared between FETO and control patients on first post-natal echocardiogram, prior to and post CDH repair, and on last available echocardiogram using non-parametric Wilcoxon rank-sum test in a single-center, retrospective cohort study. Linear regression models evaluated change over time, adjusting for clustering and interaction of echocardiogram parameters with time.

Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is characterized by incomplete closure of the diaphragm. While the ensuing compression to the fetal lung causes lung hypoplasia, specific cellular phenotypes and developmental signaling defects in the alveolar epithelium in CDH are not fully understood. Employing lung samples from human CDH, a surgical lamb model and a nitrogen rat model, we investigate whether lung compression impairs alveolar epithelial differentiation and Yes-associated protein (YAP)-mediated mechanosensing.
